278 Bestie Comes Knocking

Ellis was perplexed by the request. “What DNA test are we talking about?”

Uncle Olsen sighed. “She looks so much like your grandma, like a younger version of her.”

Ellis felt it was far-fetched. “There are plenty of people in the world who look alike, and just because someone bears a resemblance, you want a DNA test?”

Uncle Olsen frowned at him.

Keera really had no friends!

During the days Keira spent with the South family, not a single person took the initiative to contact Keera, leaving her clueless about how to get in touch with South family members.

She let it ring twice before picking it up.

There was no immediate response from the other end.

Keira paused, then slowly said, “Hello, who is this?”

of friends.

But from the woman’s tone, it seemed Keera had

After thinking it over for a moment, Keira’s lips curled into a smile. “Did you call me because you needed

something?”

With that question, the person on the other end rattled off the details of their relationship.

“Keera! Don’t go too far! Do you really think I can’t live without you as my best friend? If it wasn’t for seeing Howard flaunting that mistress of his around town, I wouldn’t even bother talking with you!

“I know, ever since you got married, Howard has been complaining about me being too harsh on him, and he has said plenty of nasty things about me to you! He even pressured you to cut ties with me.
