Chapter 355
Frankie also looked at Ellis with a puzzled expression. âFamily conflict?â
âŠ.
But Ellis didnât answer their questions and simply glanced at his watch. âAlright, the wedding is still going on, donât waste time here!â
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 âfamily conflictâ, when she saw the murderous look in Frankie and Rebeccaâs eyes, she got a fright and hurriedly followed Ellis down the stairs.
Once she had left, Frankie immediately turned to Rebecca, âRebecca, youâŠâ
Rebecca immediately said, âFrankie, Iâm okay now.â
Frankie was taken aback, âYouâre okay?â
âYeah,â Rebecca lowered her eyes. âAfter⊠Keera saved me, I kind of realized something. I canât live my life in a daze anymore. Miss Keira would definitely not want to see me like this⊠Iâll definitely get myself together from now on.â
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. âHow did you make her realize it?â
Keira coughed, glanced at Rebecca, then said, âI scolded her a bit?â
Frankie was speechless.
He passed his gaze between Rebecca and âKeeraâ, finally resting his eyes on the corner of âKeeraâsâ eye.
There, the mole was already gone.
She was still Keera, obviouslyâŠ
He had no idea that just after Rebecca acknowledged Keira, Keira immediately covered up the mole with foundationâŠ
When the three of them went downstairs, the wedding had already ended. As the bridesmaid, Keiraâs 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, âWhy are you here?â
âTo take you home.â
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 Lewisâs 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. âWell, Miss South, may I come to your place?â
âNo.â
âYes.â
Lewis and Keira spoke up at the same time.
Afterward, Lewis looked at Keira, his brow furrowing as he asked with his eyes. âHow could you let this person go to the South residence?â
Keira raised an eyebrow in response. âWhatâs the problem?â
Lewis continued conveying his thoughts with his gaze. âThis person has improper feelings toward me. How could you lead a wolf into your house?â
Keira was speechless.
She coughed, suddenly thinking that Lewis was somewhat self-absorbed.
In the end, Rebecca still squeezed into Lewisâs car.
On the road, Rebecca kept staring at Keira without saying a word.
But she was frantically sending messages to Frankie on WhatsApp. âFrankie, Lewis is so scary! Will he forbid me from coming over to hang out with Keera in the future?â
Frankie replied to the message. âPossibly. Do you remember what youâve done?â
Rebecca hastily responded, âI know I shouldnât have done that. What can I do to make him agree to let me come over to Keeraâs house?â
Frankie said, âTalk to him nicely. Lewis is cold on the outside but warm on the inside. Be a bit softer with your attitude, and heâll treat you better.â
Rebecca wrote, âGot it!â
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. âShe has just announced her intentions to marry me. How could you bring her back home?â
Keira patted his shoulder. âYouâre overthinking it! She came here for meâŠâ
Then she turned back to Rebecca. âIâll go make dinner for you!â
Rebecca nodded obediently. âOkay!â
Lewis frowned at Rebecca.
She came here for Keira?
Could it be that she recognized Nan Ge?
Impossible.
Keiraâs identity is a secret; she wouldnât reveal it unless absolutely necessary.
Rebecca must be deceiving herâŠ
Just as he thought about this, he observed that Rebecca, who was Keiraâs little tail, didnât 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.
Lewisâs 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. âAre you Keeraâs daughter? Wow, youâre so cute! I want to play with you!â
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. âMiss Allen, do you have something to say to me?â
Rebecca swallowed. âWellâŠâ
As she was struggling with how to begin, Lewis said indifferently, âNo.â
Rebecca was perplexed.
She was confused. âI havenât even said anything. How do you know itâs a ânoâ?â
Lewis chuckled. âIâve known whatâs on your mind for a long time, Miss Allen. Iâm devoted to Keera, and Iâm not interested in you!â
Rebecca was confused.
She was perplexed, âNo, IâŠâ
Lewis stood up abruptly. âAs I said, no means no!â
He turned and went upstairs.
Rebecca was speechless.
The Olsen family.
The Olsen family hadnât 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 didnât stand up for her!
It was just too much!
She absolutely couldnât let it go!
However, she had never been close to her older brother since they were young, and it wasnât unexpected for him not to help herâŠ
At this moment, she saw Ellis emerge from the bridal chamber.
âUncle, you finally have some news!â
âIâm married today, and you didnât attend my wedding!â
âYouâre coming back tomorrow? Good, I have something important to discuss with you.â
Victoria hid nearby, and at these words, her eyes lit up slightly.
If Uncle Olsen were to return, wouldnât she be able to complain to him?
After all, Uncle Olsen was known for being protective!
