219 Mom.

Uncle Olsen was a bit stunned.

For a moment, he felt as if he had seen his mother

when she was young.

The girl bore a striking resemblance to his late mother, and he found it hard to take his eyes off her.

He stared at Keira with a dazed expression, involuntarily moving closer to her…

When Keira saw this handsome middle-aged man approaching, she was slightly taken aback.

She looked around and saw that there was no one else,

so was this man coming to see her?

While she was pondering this, she saw Uncle Olsen sit down in front of her, facing her.

Keira asked, “…Do you need something?”

Uncle Olsen said, “Wasn’t it you who was staring at me

first?”

Keira was perplexed.

It had been over twenty years since he last saw his mother… Upon closer look, this girl’s demeanor wasn’t quite the same as his mother’s, but that face…

He suddenly asked, “May I ask what your father’s

surname is?”

Keira was perplexed.

She found the man b a bit strange, but he also gave her a feeling of familiarity, which made her not want to lie.

Taylor wasn’t her dad… perhaps Uncle Olsen was, or perhaps not… Mrs. Olsen didn’t tell her last time. Her eyes were filled with deep sadness, so Keira didn’t inquire further.

After thinking for a moment, Keira said, “I don’t know.”
