Chapter 355
Frankie also looked at Ellis with a puzzled expression. “Family conflict?”
….
But Ellis didn’t answer their questions and simply glanced at his watch. “Alright, the wedding is still going on, don’t waste time here!”
He glanced at Rebecca once more, made sure she was okay, then turned and went downstairs.
After he left, Victoria turned her gaze to Keira, sizing her up. Although still unclear about the meaning of the words “family conflict”, when she saw the murderous look in Frankie and Rebecca’s eyes, she got a fright and hurriedly followed Ellis down the stairs.
Once she had left, Frankie immediately turned to Rebecca, “Rebecca, you…”
Rebecca immediately said, “Frankie, I’m okay now.”
Frankie was taken aback, “You’re okay?”
“Yeah,” Rebecca lowered her eyes. “After… Keera saved me, I kind of realized something. I can’t live my life in a daze anymore. Miss Keira would definitely not want to see me like this… I’ll definitely get myself together from now on.”
Frankie was perplexed.
He had been trying to say these words until he was blue in the face these past few days, but when had Rebecca actually listened?!
She just got saved and had an epiphany?
He hesitantly looked at Keira. “How did you make her realize it?”
Keira coughed, glanced at Rebecca, then said, “I scolded her a bit?”
Frankie was speechless.
He passed his gaze between Rebecca and “Keera”, finally resting his eyes on the corner of “Keera’s” eye.
There, the mole was already gone.
She was still Keera, obviously…
He had no idea that just after Rebecca acknowledged Keira, Keira immediately covered up the mole with foundation…
When the three of them went downstairs, the wedding had already ended. As the bridesmaid, Keira’s task had finished. Seeing Mary and Ellis getting into the car, she then left the hotel.
She wanted to find a ride to get home.
Then she spotted Lewis, who was waiting outside.
He wore a cap, a mask, and a loose tracksuit. He smiled slightly the moment Keira stepped out and walked toward her.
Keira asked, “Why are you here?”
“To take you home.”
He replied indifferently.
His deep, cello-like voice always gave her a sense of security and made Keira feel warmth in her chest.
She nodded, then noticed Lewis’s smile stiffen at the corner of his eyes.
Following his gaze, Keira looked over and saw Rebecca exiting the hall, staring at her eagerly.
Then, Rebecca walked over coyly, her head lowered. “Well, Miss South, may I come to your place?”
“No.”
“Yes.”
Lewis and Keira spoke up at the same time.
Afterward, Lewis looked at Keira, his brow furrowing as he asked with his eyes. “How could you let this person go to the South residence?”
Keira raised an eyebrow in response. “What’s the problem?”
Lewis continued conveying his thoughts with his gaze. “This person has improper feelings toward me. How could you lead a wolf into your house?”
Keira was speechless.
She coughed, suddenly thinking that Lewis was somewhat self-absorbed.
In the end, Rebecca still squeezed into Lewis’s car.
On the road, Rebecca kept staring at Keira without saying a word.
But she was frantically sending messages to Frankie on WhatsApp. “Frankie, Lewis is so scary! Will he forbid me from coming over to hang out with Keera in the future?”
Frankie replied to the message. “Possibly. Do you remember what you’ve done?”
Rebecca hastily responded, “I know I shouldn’t have done that. What can I do to make him agree to let me come over to Keera’s house?”
Frankie said, “Talk to him nicely. Lewis is cold on the outside but warm on the inside. Be a bit softer with your attitude, and he’ll treat you better.”
Rebecca wrote, “Got it!”
Then she blinked, her gaze shifting from Keira to Lewis.
The group soon arrived at the South residence.
Lewis had just parked the car when he dragged Keira aside and lowered his voice. “She has just announced her intentions to marry me. How could you bring her back home?”
Keira patted his shoulder. “You’re overthinking it! She came here for me…”
Then she turned back to Rebecca. “I’ll go make dinner for you!”
Rebecca nodded obediently. “Okay!”
Lewis frowned at Rebecca.
She came here for Keira?
Could it be that she recognized Nan Ge?
Impossible.
Keira’s identity is a secret; she wouldn’t reveal it unless absolutely necessary.
Rebecca must be deceiving her…
Just as he thought about this, he observed that Rebecca, who was Keira’s little tail, didn’t follow Keira into the kitchen but instead kept looking at him hesitantly.
Her eyes were filled with words she seemed to hold back. She obviously had something to say to him.
Lewis’s expression turned cold.
He knew this woman was harboring ill intentions toward him.
He turned and went into the living room where he saw the nanny playing with Amy, so he walked over, about to talk to Amy, when Rebecca came over, hesitating and shuffling closer.
She looked at Lewis.
But the moment Lewis looked her way, she hastily turned her attention to Amy. “Are you Keera’s daughter? Wow, you’re so cute! I want to play with you!”
Lewis was speechless.
He immediately turned and walked to a nearby sofa, sitting down with a frosty demeanor.
No sooner had he settled down than he saw Rebecca again, shuffling and dragging her feet as she came over and sat down beside him.
Lewis simply put down his phone and looked at her. “Miss Allen, do you have something to say to me?”
Rebecca swallowed. “Well…”
As she was struggling with how to begin, Lewis said indifferently, “No.”
Rebecca was perplexed.
She was confused. “I haven’t even said anything. How do you know it’s a ‘no’?”
Lewis chuckled. “I’ve known what’s on your mind for a long time, Miss Allen. I’m devoted to Keera, and I’m not interested in you!”
Rebecca was confused.
She was perplexed, “No, I…”
Lewis stood up abruptly. “As I said, no means no!”
He turned and went upstairs.
Rebecca was speechless.
The Olsen family.
The Olsen family hadn’t split, so all three branches lived together.
Ellis had just married, and Victoria watched the location of the new house, clenching her fists tightly.
She had been bullied today, yet the current head of the household didn’t stand up for her!
It was just too much!
She absolutely couldn’t let it go!
However, she had never been close to her older brother since they were young, and it wasn’t unexpected for him not to help her…
At this moment, she saw Ellis emerge from the bridal chamber.
“Uncle, you finally have some news!”
“I’m married today, and you didn’t attend my wedding!”
“You’re coming back tomorrow? Good, I have something important to discuss with you.”
Victoria hid nearby, and at these words, her eyes lit up slightly.
If Uncle Olsen were to return, wouldn’t she be able to complain to him?
After all, Uncle Olsen was known for being protective!
