Connor finally smiled. “Alright, I’ll wait for you tonight.”

After all these preparations, there was a sound at the door. Mrs. Olsen walked in with Isla and Taylor Olsen.

Upon entering, Mrs. Olsen’s eyes were immediately on Keira. Seeing her looking as usual, she breathed a sigh of relief and quickly walked over to her. “Keira, are you
