Chapter 435
Nara hadnât even finished writing when Austin sneered. âSenior Sister, donât push too far. Is it just a pendant? Do you need to be so anxious? Jackson is still seriously ill, and here you are at the hospital; thatâs going too far!â
âŠ.
With her arms folded, Keira looked at him coldly. âThat pendant was snatched from Nara, so returning it to its rightful owner is only just and fair.â
Austin immediately stood in front of Jackson. âI said Jackson is still not well. Letâs talk when heâs recovered!â
âThatâs not your all.â
Having said this, Keira loosened her shoulders and flexed her wrists.
This action startled both Austin and Jackson.
Austin even took a step back. âSenior Sister, donât go too far! You clearly donât respect the Gill family!â
Prominent families cared about their dignity.
Even if Keira wanted something, she could have passed a message, spoken some nice words, and asked for it to be returnedâthere was no need to barge in like this.
Keira didnât understand these rules; all she knew was that something from Nara had been stolen, and she intended to reclaim it!
She stared at Austin. âSo, youâre not planning to give back the item? Then donât blame me for turning this place upside down!â
Austin was immediately infuriated and somewhat intimidated by this senior sister of the Freeman Sect. He quickly shouted to Jackson.
âGive it to her, Jackson, give her stuff back! Donât argue with this madwoman!â
He then sneered again. âI donât know whatâs so precious about it. You come knocking so persistently, so ferventlyâis it some kind of heirloom?â
Nara hastily waved her hands.
Austin scoffed. âRight, how could your family have an heirloom? Youâre so poor!â
Nara halted, and she sadly lowered her head.
Austin then turned to Jackson. âGive it to her!â
Jackson took a deep breath and hurriedly said, âAlright, alright, your stuff is here!â
After saying this, he gestured to someone nearby.
A bodyguard promptly stepped forward with a bag and handed it to Nara.
Nara opened the bag, saw her necklace, and breathed a sigh of relief.
Keira asked, âIs it your item?â
Nara immediately nodded.
Keira then said, âAlright, letâs go.â
The two turned and headed for the door. Behind them, Austin cursed, âSuch a bunch of paupers. Glad to see them gone. They leave the smell of poverty in this room!â
Jacksonâs gaze darkened. âAustin, Keera is from the Olsen family, not some pauper.â
âI was talking about that mute at her side. Whatâs her name again?â
Jackson immediately said, âNara.â
âRight, I was cursing her! For some petty pendant, even a mute dares to bully us. Itâs infuriating!â
Nara reached the doorway at this point. At those words, her steps faltered slightly, and her head hung even lower.
Keira turned and glared at Austin.
Austin stood his ground. âIâm talking about the mute. I didnât mean you, Senior Sister. Youâre not planning to control other peopleâs speech as well, are you?â
Keira was about to say something or give them a lesson, but Nara tugged at her arm and shook her head, leading Keira away.
After the two left, Austin became angrier the more he thought about it. Standing up abruptly, he exclaimed, âIâve never been humiliated like this in my life! This Keera is just too much!â
Jackson immediately agreed, âExactly, Austin, sheâs way too arrogant. You must help me get revenge!â
Austin complained, âHow am I supposed to take revenge for you? In terms of status, sheâs Miss Olsen, in terms of position, sheâs the senior sister. Even if I wanted to find someone to hit her with a sneak attack, Iâm afraid theyâd end up being sent to take a beating themselves, wouldnât they?â
Jacksonâs heart was brooding and sinister. Seeing his demeanor, Austin couldnât help but pat his shoulder. âAlright, I know you like Keera, but sheâs untouchable now. If you want another woman, I will find one for you!â
Jackson glared at Austin with a dark expression. Untouchable? Clearly, as the son of the second branch, he wasnât considered worth the Gill familyâs effort. If it had been Austin who had been kicked and rendered infertile, he wondered if Lady Gill would fight to the death against the offender! After just spewing out some harsh words, she returned home without having done anything?!
Jacksonâs expression grew even darker, and suddenly he smirked, âAustin, you said it⊠Then I want that little mute girl!â
Austin was startled. âThe little mute girl? She looks quite pretty, though not stunning. What do you want her for?â
Jackson lowered his gaze. âIt was when I was onto her that Keera beat me. Now I can no longer be a man. Isnât it fitting for such a lowly and poor wretch to come and serve me?â
Austin frowned and scrutinized Jackson. âBut sheâs obviously already been taken under the wing of KeeraâŠâ
Suddenly, Jackson said, âAustin, is there any news about our sister?â
Upon hearing this, Austin remembered the merit Jackson had earned by finding the jade, and patted his shoulder. âNot yet, but with the Gill family broadcasting such a grand advertisement, it should be soon!â
Austinâs heart tightened at the thought of his sister. He had searched for so many years, yearned for so long, and now the news of his sister had come through Jackson, and he should be grateful. Austin immediately assured him. âDonât worry, I will definitely bring the little mute over to you! To let you vent this anger!â
A sly smile of scheming spread across Jacksonâs face.
Austin looked down and picked up his phone again. Suddenly, it seemed he saw something, and he stood up straight away, his eyes wide with astonishment as he stared at his phone.
Jackson asked, âAustin, whatâs wrong?â
Pointing at the phone, Austin suddenly burst into uproarious laughter. âI was just worrying about how to counter the Olsen family, and isnât this the perfect opportunity?!â
He handed the phone over to Jackson.
Once Jackson saw the content, his eyes bulged, and he couldnât help but burst into laughter as well. âItâs retribution, all retribution! I was crippled by Keera, but look, the Olsen familyâs heir, Ellis, turns out to be infertile! Just as useless as me!â
Austin suddenly said, âIâve always said that Mary is a bitch, acting all high and mighty in front of me. You see? Ellis is infertile, yet sheâs pregnant. Tell me, whose child is it?â
Jackson also began to laugh.
So, Keera took Nara back home, and upon returning to the car, she saw Lewis with a worried frown.
Keera asked, âWhatâs wrong?â
Lewis sighed silently and handed her the phone. The screen displayed news from a media outlet controlled by the Gill family, releasing information about Ellisâs physical examination. The medical report for Ellis clearly stated: infertile patient!
Keeraâs pupils constricted. Lewis immediately added, âThis news has been confirmed by the hospital, and now all major media outlets are rushing to report on it. Within one hour, the Olsen familyâs stock has fallen by two percent. If this isnât managed, the drop will likely continue!â
Keera clenched her fingers in anger. âThe Gill familyâs retaliation is just too vicious! This is a violation of my brotherâs right to privacy!â
Lewis nodded. âThe Olsen family will certainly hold them accountable for this matter. But theyâre not afraid; at worst, theyâll just pay some compensation. What they want is to impact the Olsen familyâs stock price⊠Keera, what are you thinking about?â
Keera stared at the report. âIâm wondering, why is his result infertile?â
