Chapter 351 - 350

Chapter 350

Keira looked at Rebecca in shock.

….

She couldn’t imagine how that reserved girl from Oceanion could have transformed into the person she was now…

Sharp, spiteful…

She quietly sighed.

Mary also frowned, “Rebecca, do you think you’re somehow better than everyone else? Let me tell you, I want Keera to be my bridesmaid on stage!”

Rebecca ignored her, still staring at Ellis. “Ellis, say something!”

Ellis sneered. “Rebecca, what do you want me to say? About how you could have turned out like this? I can tell you with certainty that among everyone present today, Keera is the most suitable person by status!”

“Keera” was his own cousin!

Among the five major families, the Olsen family ranked second; the wealthy ones here were all inferior to the Olsen family.

According to this ranking, “Keera” was indeed the one with the highest status among everyone at the event!

However, without his third uncle’s consent, he still had no way to formally acknowledge his cousin.

As for Uncle Olsen…

Ellis lowered his gaze. He had lost contact with that man!

Just half a month ago, his third uncle sent him a message, saying that he was going to an island in search of something, and there was nothing after that. The wedding was arranged so hastily that his uncle probably didn’t even know Ellis was getting married.

Everything regarding acknowledging “Keera” as a family member would have to wait until the return of Uncle Olsen.

Ellis thought of this, then saw the astounded look on Rebecca’s face. After a long while, she shouted, “You say she’s the most suitable? Is it because she looks like Keira? I know you like Keira and admire her horse-riding skills, but Ellis, she’s not Keira! She’s Keera!!”

Ellis thought Rebecca was being utterly ridiculous.

So, he told someone nearby, “Please bring Mr. Allen over here. I think his sister isn’t in good health, so it’s best to take her home now.”

“Yes.”

That person immediately went to look for Frankie.

Soon, Frankie arrived in a hurry. As he entered, he heard Ellis’s words, so he sighed and looked at Rebecca. “Rebecca, you seem tired. Why don’t we go home? There’s not much left for today’s wedding anyway.”

At that moment, Rebecca felt like crying.

Why?

Did everyone who knew Keira favor Keera now?

Did they consider Keera as Keira?

How could they… How could that be right?

Her eyes became red, and she wobbled as if about to fall. Just then, Frankie stepped forward and caught her in his arms, then turned to the others and said, “Sorry, but we must leave now.”

Frankie held Rebecca and called their father, asking the latter to take Rebecca home.

Mrs. Allen was from the Davis family, so she needed to stay and help with hosting the guests.

Frankie should stay too.

Once Rebecca was in the car, she looked at Frankie, her eyes red from crying. “Frankie, everyone has betrayed Miss Keira. We can’t be like them. Promise me you won’t be nice to Keera, okay?”

Frankie looked at his obsessive sister and patted the back of her hand. “Alright.”

…

No one understood the meaning behind Ellis’s words.

Why was “Keera” said to be the most suitable by status?

Was it because she was Mary’s best friend?

Unable to figure it out, everyone chose not to dwell on it.

The wedding began. Everyone entered the venue in an orderly manner as directed by the master of ceremonies.

Keira personally went on stage and gave Mary the ring. At that moment, gazing at the blissful Mary, she thought of her sister’s diary…

Her sister had always wanted Mary to have a happy life.

Seeing this scene, she certainly would have been happy, right?

Keira lowered her eyes, suppressing the tears, and then finally stepped off the stage.

Mary saw her subtle gesture and felt a myriad of emotions.

The wedding proceeded swiftly, but throughout the event, Ellis’s expression stayed grim, and he hardly said a word. Even when the master of ceremonies asked if he was willing to take Mary as his wife, Ellis was silent for a long time, and just when everyone thought he was going to change his mind, he finally squeezed out the words.

“Yes.”

Anyway, after some unsettling moments, the ceremony was completed, and then the buffet began.

Because Mary was pregnant, the toast ceremony was omitted. Everyone gathered, chatting and laughing, marking the end of the wedding.

Keira picked up a plate and got some food before walking to the balcony nearby, admiring the view of the whole Clance.

This banquet hall belonged to the Olsen family.

Perched on the 48th floor of a tall building, one could see the thriving beauty of Clance from here.

While she was eating, Frankie suddenly appeared beside her. “Miss South…”

Keira smiled and looked at him. “Mr. Allen, have you made a decision?”

Frankie remained silent for a long time. “We could secretly form a partnership without letting Rebecca know. We don’t want her to find out.”

Keira immediately raised an eyebrow and lifted her champagne toward him. “No problem.”

The potential of her project was too tempting, and the prospects were very promising. Frankie wouldn’t be a qualified family head if he didn’t partner up with her.

Keira wasn’t surprised by his agreement.

After the two toasted, Frankie turned to leave but suddenly stiffened.

Following his gaze, Keira turned and realized that Rebecca had returned and was standing behind them.

Rebecca had come back only because she forgot her bag, and she followed her brother when she saw him approaching Keira, never expecting to overhear such a conversation!

Her eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at Frankie.

What did her brother just say?!

To collaborate with Keira… but to keep it a secret from his sister.

Had her brother too been bewitched by Keira?!

At that moment, Rebecca felt a chill through her body as if the entire world had betrayed Miss Keira…

Her eyes reddened as she stared fixedly at Frankie and Keira.

Panicking, Frankie stammered. “Rebecca, listen to me. It’s not what you think. Miss Keira’s project could lead our company to new heights.”

“I won’t listen to you!” Rebecca screamed hysterically, covering her ears and shaking her head vigorously.

Then she suddenly turned and ran out of the room.

Frankie quickly chased after her.

Keira wanted to follow but stopped herself, knowing that her presence might make Rebecca feel even worse.

She sighed quietly to herself and continued eating while looking at the scenery outside the window.

However, five minutes later, there was chaos in the banquet hall. Keira thought something might have happened to Mary, but she heard people nearby saying, “It’s true. I just saw it with my own eyes. Rebecca ran to the rooftop! She’s going to jump!”

Jumping off the building?

Keira’s pupils shrank, and she immediately put down her plate and rushed with the crowd toward the stairs!

The safety door to the rooftop had somehow been opened; Keira hadn’t even gotten there when she heard the murmurs of the crowd.

“The Allen family is not allowing anyone to get close, to avoid aggravating Rebecca…”

“What happened? Why does she suddenly want to jump off the building?”

“From their conversation, it seems like Frankie is interested in Keira. Rebecca and Keira have a bit of a feud… Like just now during the bridal procession…”

“Wasn’t Frankie supposed to be a brother who dotes on his sister like crazy?”

Keira herself was bewildered.

She didn’t understand why Rebecca hated her so much.

But the next moment, she heard something.

“No, no, I know what happened. I just overheard their conversation. It seems like Rebecca thinks Keira looks a lot like someone she’s grateful to, and she thinks Mr. Allen has transferred his affections, and that Miss Keira has been forgotten by everyone, so she couldn’t handle it…”

Hearing this, Keira suddenly understood.

Her eyes widened in shock.

She suddenly connected all of Rebecca’s actions…

Rebecca had never betrayed her, she hadn’t fallen for Lewis either. The reason she fought for Lewis was because she thought Lewis had found a replacement…

Her opposition to Keira, even refusing to let Frankie work with her, was because she felt it was a disservice to Keira…

Tears instantly welled up in Keira’s eyes.

She pushed through the crowd, determined to clarify everything with Rebecca!

This foolish girl!
