Chapter 314

Under the affectionate gazes of her four cousins, Joycelyn felt incredibly restrained during this lunch.

As soon as the table was cleared, Jeff went to fetch some nutritional supplements suitable for pregnant women for Joycelyn.

The four brothers took care of her and even Ellison.

Joycelyn looked at the exquisite food in front of her.

“My wife said these are all good for you and beneficial to your health,” Jeff said.

“Ellison, you should eat too. Don’t be too reserved. We’re all family now.” Jeff, with his authoritative eldest brother aura, made sure to take care of every detail.

Joycelyn and Ellison exchanged glances.

Ever since they got married, they had only really interacted with Isolde. The rest of their relatives maintained surface–level politeness but didn’t have much actual contact.

The young couple had grown accustomed to a simple family dynamic and had never experienced such a large and harmonious family before.

“You should eat more. You’ve lost weight recently,” Ellison said as he asked Sandra to warm up

the

soup.

Since they had already done a paternity test, Ellison spoke up on behalf of Joycelyn. “Now that we’ve confirmed everything, can you tell us

s more about Joycelyn’s past?”

Jeff said, “Joycelyn was originally named Septima Schultz. She’s the youngest in the Schultz family. With the four of us from the Spencer family and two from the Schultz family, she has a total of six older cousins.”

“She was the seventh child in the family and was born on July 7th. That’s why we called her Septima. She went missing before she even turned four. She’ll be 23 this July,” Jeff explained gently.

Joycelyn’s eyes widened in surprise. “I’m not even 23 yet?”

It was no wonder she had always been shorter than her classmates in school. Her birthday had been recorded incorrectly. “Joycelyn, that means we’re the same age!” Sandra said excitedly as she walked over with the warmed–up soup.

The unexpected “discount” of three years truly caught Joycelyn off guard.
