Howard was about to move forward when he suddenly froze upon hearing those words.
Howardâs mother was so startled that she trembled and almost fell to the ground.
Both turned their heads sharply, looking at Keira with a mix of wariness and anger.
Howardâs mother scolded in a low voice, âWhat
nonsense are you talking about?!â
Howard wiped the nonexistent cold sweat from his forehead and said to Uncle Olsen with a flattering
smile, âUncle Olsen, she, she hasnât seen much of the world. Please, please donât take her seriouslyâ¦â
As soon as these words were spoken, they saw Uncle Olsen suddenly stand up.
Howard was so frightened he almost knelt on the spot, and immediately turned around to glare
furiously at Keira. âYou ignorant wretch, what are you yelling about? Apologize to Uncle Olsen right
away!â
But to his surprise, as soon as he had spoken, Uncle

Olsen strode past him and approached Keira. âKid, I sent you WhatsApp messages, but why didnât you
reply? Are you still angry about me not showing up last
time?â
Howard, who had already cursed Keira in his mind, was puzzled.
Howardâs mother, who was preparing to punish Keera and Amy severely once they got home, was
doubly puzzled.
Both were dumbfounded, looking at Keira and Uncle Olsen with ignorance and confusion.
Keiraâs eyes were also wide; she subconsciously took out her phone, then realized her phone had long
since been lost to the sea, and the one she was currently using belonged to Keera, which didnât have
Handsome Uncle on WhatsApp.
Realizing this, she looked downward with a subdued expression, âUm, the account that I added you on
WhatsApp was another number. I lost my phone.â
âShall we add each other again?â
Uncle Olsen humbly took out his phone and once
again opened the OR code for her.
Howard was utterly dumbfounded.
Everyone outside said that Uncle Olsenâs WhatsApp was the hardest to be added to. He had a brief
chat
with Uncle Olsen yesterday and had tentatively asked once, and Uncle Olsen agreed.
Today, he took the initiative to add Keera again?
Was this really the cold-hearted, iron-fisted, and mysterious Uncle Olsen he had heard about?!
Keira stared at his phone, feeling somewhat unwilling
at the bottom of her heart.
She didnât mind associating with him when she didnât know he was Uncle Olsen. It was happy to have
him as
a stranger.
But now, she knew he was indeed Uncle Olsen, but her
mother, Jodie South, didnât even want to see himâ¦
â¦Well, considering so many people were watching, it would be embarrassing for Uncle Olsen if she
refused.
Keira took out her phone and they added each other on WhatsApp once again.
Howard watched them, wiping the nonexistent cold
sweat on his forehead, âUncle Olsen. you⦠vou know

Keera South?â
Southâ¦
Uncle Olsenâs gaze darkened.
He nodded, just about to say something when Keira said, âWe met today at Mrs. Hortonâs funeral.â
The words Uncle Olsen was about to say paused slightly, and he looked at Howard again, his gaze
falling
on Howardâs motherâ¦
Was this the âvery goodâ mother the kid mentioned?
She didnât seem to be that impressiveâ¦
He disdainfully withdrew his gaze and invited them to
sit down.
Uncle Olsen stared at Keiraâs face and asked, âMiss. South, is it? Do you have the surname South
because itâs your fatherâs name or your motherâs?â
Keira paused briefly.
She really didnât knowâ¦
The surname South was indeed rare.
She only knew that Keera had foster parents, but she
woanât clear on the ananifing ot
But there was no need for her to answer, as Howard immediately said, âHer foster fatherâs surname is
South!â
Uncle Olsen was taken aback, âFoster father?â
Howard smiled. âYes, yes, she was an abandoned baby. She was thrown away shortly after she was
born and then taken in by her foster parents. Afterward, she lived near Clance. Later, both her foster
parents passed away, leaving behind a small villa and a
companyâ¦â
Both her foster parents had died?
Keira was also slightly surprised.
No wonder Keera had been bullied by Howard and his
mother for so many years without any relatives. coming to her defense! It turns out that her foster
parents were no longer alive!
Uncle Olsen pursed his lips, and his gaze fell back on Keiraâs face. Seeing that she seemed reluctant
to say more, he changed the topic. âYou also live in Clance?â
âYes, yes, we have a small villa near the North Sixth Ring of Clance, and thereâs also a small company
thara
Uncle Olsen asked, âWhat kind of business is it?â
âNew energy! Isnât it hot this year? Weâve just recruited a few people and are working on this!â
Having said that, Howard eagerly looked at Uncle Olsen, hoping that if Uncle Olsen could grant them a
project, their companyâs market value could increase tenfold!
But who was Uncle Olsen?
He had already noticed the discord between Keira and
Howard. He simply took a couple of sips of tea and then passed the teacups to each person in front of
him.
After everyone finished their tea, the dishes from Fragrance Hall were served.
Uncle Olsen invited everyone to move to the dining table to eat. Once everyone had done so, his gaze
nonchalantly swept over the teacup that Keira had just used.
Gazing at the delicately cooked dishes, Howard
immediately said, âUncle Olsen, the food here is really
delicious. We havenât eaten such authentic Oceanion Quicina in monnal In this mada hu the hand shot
of
Fragrance Hall?â
The waiter beside him immediately sighed. âOur head chef⦠was Mrs. Horton. Itâs said that she met a
genius chef during her internship when she was a student, who taught her everything he knew, which is
why the food she makes is so delicious. But Mrs. Horton only cooked one meal a month, and even if
people broke their heads trying, they couldnât secure a spot here and had to queue⦠Unfortunatelyâ¦â
The waiter lowered his head.
The previous owner of the restaurant had always been mysterious, and they had never seen them.
It was only after the news of Mrs. Hortonâs death came that the restaurant manager cried bitterly, and
they found out.
Upon hearing this, Uncle Olsenâs mood also became heavy. He set down his fork and sighed deeply
before looking at Keira. âHow is Mrs. Olsen doing after your visit today?â
Keira said, âMrs. Olsen hasnât woken up yetâ¦â
âShe has woken up,â
