166 Cousin

Ellis frowned, giving Keira a second look.

Why did this woman look somewhat familiar?

She seemed to bear a resemblance to his third uncle…

With this thought in mind, he turned to Isla. “My third uncle mentioned that your mom is an old friend of his, asking me to look after your Olsen family for a while.

Ellis was shocked. “What? You’re saying Lewis married an illegitimate daughter?!”

Isla nodded…

But Ellis just sneered. “Ha, that hypocrite. I didn’t expect he’d have such a day!”

Jake caught the implications in his words and immediately asked, “Mr. Olsen, you know my uncle?”

“Of course, I know him. We were classmates abroad!” Ellis said with a sneer, “Back then, I thought he looked decent enough and considered introducing him to a
