235 Big Brother

Could that handsome uncle be Uncle Olsen?

At this thought, Keira immediately opened the big box.

Inside the big box was a delicate small box tied with a ribbon, clearly meant for a woman.

Keira opened the small box and found inside a luxury handbag from the same brand.

She let out a sigh of relief, feeling she had thought too much.

What were the odds?

Her phone vibrated. When she checked, she saw a message from Ellis. “Did you receive the gift from Uncle Olsen? Can you spare some time to meet him?”

Keira thought for a moment. Flowers yesterday, a handbag today-would they continue to send things if she still ignored them tomorrow?

She replied to the message. “Tell Mr. Olsen I’m not mad; I just don’t think there’s any need to meet.”

When Ellis received the message, he immediately

passed Keira’s words on to Uncle Olsen.

After hearing it, Uncle Olsen fell silent for a while, and in the end, he just sighed softly. “Then forget it. There’s no need to meet then. I’ll be returning to Clance the day after tomorrow.”

“Alright.”

Ellis then asked, “But Uncle Olsen, didn’t your close friend say they were sending jewelry? Why did you send a bag instead?”

Uncle Olsen sighed. “The jewelry is too expensive; Miss Jodie wouldn’t accept it.”

The brand’s fine jewelry was worth hundreds of thousands to millions. Uncle Olsen thought giving suc items was too much, so he chose a bag worth tens o

thousands of dollars instead.

After all, women like them all the same!

Uncle Olsen also felt that his stubborn insistence on

seeing her was mysteriously absurd; he couldn’t understand this inexplicable determination to see her.

As he was pondering, his phone vibrated with a message from his close friend.

The young lady said, “Don’t worry. I won’t forget! I’ve spoken to my mom, and I’ll bring her along- so you can see what the world’s greatest mother looks like!”
