At this moment, in the South residence.
Keira was playing the fair parent.
âMommy, read me the picture book!â Amy called out to
her.
âMiss Keira, I feel a bit dizzy, can you keep me company?â Rebecca was also calling for her.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lewis wasnât calling her. He just looked at her with resentful eyes.
Keira asked, âWhatâs wrong?â
Lewis then hung his head. âYesterday at the wedding, I saw her from the Davis family.â
This âherâ definitely referred to Lewisâs mother, Shirley.
Mary got married, so she would definitely be th
Keira immediately felt a pang of heartache. âWhy you say anything yesterday?â
âIâm fine, Keira. You donât need to keep me company
Stay with them. Let me be alone for a while and have
O
smoke.â
Lewis sighed quietly and stood up, looking like he was going to the balcony to smoke.
Keira was speechless.
Amy and Rebecca were still calling her, and as Keira hesitated, Lewis looked at her. âKeira, youwouldnât despise me for smoking, right? I just feel a bit suffocated. Iâm fine. You donât need to worryabout
me.â
âMoreover, I was with Ellis last night. Itâs a pity Iâm allergic to alcohol. Otherwise, I really wanted to trygetting drunk.â
Lewis lowered his eyes. âLast night, while he was drinking, he was constantly looking at his phone,thinking probably Mary would call him, asking hin come home. I was really envious. Ever since I wasyoung, other than Grandma, no one else has called n
to come homeâ¦â
Keira suddenly felt a bit guilty. Lewis went out last
night? She didnât even know!
Just as Keira was undecided about how to choose among the three people, the doorbell saved her.
Keira jumped to the task. âThereâs someone at the door. Iâll go have a look.â
She slipped out and opened the door, only to see Mary standing outside.
The bride from the day before was quietly looking at her, a bitter smile on her face. âIâm a little tired. Iwant to lean on you.â
Keira, who was still expected to attend to three other people, was speechless.
She immediately stepped aside to let Mary in.
Thus, four people needed her now.
Keira really wished for a superpower to split h into four to accompany each of them equallyâ¦Unfortunately, that wasnât possible.
She ultimately chose Mary.
Rebecca and Amy were clearly being fussyâ¦

Louricâs mottar could he noctponed for a while
Mary coming to her on the second day of her wedding wasnât a good sign.
She asked, âWhatâs wrong?â
Mary lowered her gaze and finally said, âEllis and I have agreed that weâll divorce once the child isborn.â
Keira was stunned, âWhy?â
Mary didnât answer.
Keira suddenly thought of what Lewis had just said, about him drinking with Ellis last night, andinstantly understood, âHe wasnât at home on your wedding night? He still doesnât believe that the childis his?!â
Mary forced a bitter laugh.
Keira immediately stood up. âMary, thereâs no need to wait for the child to be born. Divorce him now!We canât tolerate this indignity!â
Mary, however, shook her head.
She didnât say it was for Keiraâs sake but instead âMy parents raised me. Iâll stay with Ellis for tenmonths to give them a moment of pride. Thatâs how repay their kindness. Besides, without a father, itwouldnât look good on the birth certificateâ¦â
Looking at Keira, she said, âSo, I can only hold on for
ten months.â
Keira frowned, âBut heâ¦â
âHe wonât lay a hand on me anyway. Mr. and Mrs. Olsen are good to me. We get along peacefully forthe
moment.â
Keira still felt it unreliable and wanted to say more, but Mary spoke again. âI know what youâre worriedabout, but I have thought it through.â
ââ¦All right, I respect your decision.â
As a friend, no matter what decision the other party made, one should choose to respect it.
Keira always adhered to this principle, only deep down she knew, she only had ten months left.
If during these ten months, she couldnât complete task from that mysterious person, then she would nochance to save her mother.
But how could she collaborate with the Gill and
Freeman families?
She was pondering these problems when she saw Mary sigh so she immediately went over andhugged
her. âItâs okay, everything will pass.â
âIâm fine.â
Mary suddenly said, âAs children, we joked with each other, hoping the other would marry ourrespective brothers so we could live together. Who would have thought that just after you got divorced,I would get marriedâ¦â
Keira immediately said, âWhy does that matter? Since Ellis doesnât believe you, then move into myplace!â
Mary nodded. âOkay.â
She really had nowhere to go.
If she dared to return to the Davis residence, her parents, Uncle Wayne, and even Uncle Ken from thefirst branch, would persuade her to go back.
Staying with the Olsen familyâ¦
Mary suddenly lowered her eyes, thinking of the she had dealt with Victoria that morning, and just verytired.
She couldnât help but complain, âYou have no idea ho fussy Victoria is. Just because she doesnât likeeating onions, there were no onions in the breakfast dishesâ¦â
âThe Olsen family never had a daughter, and thatâs why they spoil her so much!â
Mary said indignantly, âItâs so strange. The three branches have seven sons and not a single daughter!They spoil the adopted daughter so much. If there was a biological one in the third branch, wouldnâtshe be spoiled to the heavens?â
Upon hearing this, Keira raised her eyebrows.
As she was conflicted about whether to reveal that she was the daughter of Uncle Olsen, the doorbellrang
again.
Who could it be this time?
As she considered this, the nanny went to open the door and quickly came back. âMaâam, someonefrom the Olsen family is here!â
