Chapter 5
The first room on the third floor had plenty of sunlight and was spacious. It even came with a huge balcony.
No one was occupying it. Later, though, Jennifer would transform it into her private paradise.
“The first room on the third floor?” Jennifer was slightly startled, her expression stiffening.
d that room.
She had long fancied
Initially, she had planned to decorate it nicely, display her collections, and even turn it into a place where she could practice playing the piano. She and Christopher could also stargaze on the balcony,
But now, it was going to be taken away by Oneida.
“The first room on the third floor, huh? No problem. I’ll have someone tidy it up immediately. Upon hearing this answer, Lucas instantly breathed a sigh of relief.
He was truly afraid that Oneida and Jennifer would have a falling out over a mere room.
In this way, the current situation was basically the best it could be
“But that room… Jennifer said hesitantly with a frown, her tone revealing faint reluctance.
‘Why?
y? Is there a problem?” Lucas turned to look at her in puzzlement.
Jennifer gritted her teeth and denied it repeatedly, “No. No”
Of course, she wouldn’t ever express her true thoughts.
The servants moved swiftly and went to the third floor to tidy up the room right away, eventually uncovering a pile of items that Jennifer had previously
placed there.
Jennifer didn’t dare to claim those things, so she could only let the servants regard those as garbage and throw them away.
The corner of Oneida’s mouth curved subtly as she revealed an imperceptible smile. She approached Jennifer nonchalantly and spoke in a voice that only the two of them could hear. “I won’t take your room… because I find it filthy.”
As soon as those words fell, Jennifer’s eyes widened in a fury, and the color drained from her face. Regardless, she dared not flare up.
Oneida then skimmed over Jennifer and walked straight to the young man behind her.
“Edmund, my little brother,” she called out in a sincere tone.
Edmund was stunned.
At first, he was extremely wary and curious about this elder sister that he had never met before.
However, the words “little brother” unknowingly made him let down his guard.
“Hello, my big sister,” Edmund subconsciously responded in kind, his appearance youthful and exuberant.
atted him on the shoulder.
Oneida patted
In this family, only Lucas and Edmund wore willing to care for her, Thus, in this lifetime, she would not let their relationship be undermined again and would also protect them wholeheartedly.
As for Tatiana and Jennifer, she was looking forward to making their lives a living nightmare!
Chapter 5
The next day, Lucas and Tatiana took Oneida to the Chaser manor.
Since the descendant of the Chaser family had returned, she definitely had to pay respects to the family’s elders.
Nathan Chaser, the patriarch, had a total of three sons. Lucas was the youngest and also the least favored one
Because, in comparison to his brothers, Lucas was truly too unremarkable.
The Chaser manor was grand and palatial with a classical charm.
Oneida was led to the main hall, where Nathan and his wife, Hazel Chaser, sat up ahead, looking dignified.
Oneida lowered her eyes with an impassive countenance as she answered whatever the elderlies asked.
In no time, the two seniors lost interest in her. After all, unlike their other sweet tongued grandchildren, Oneida seemed soulless and distant.
“As expected, being raised in a village had caused her to turn out flawed!” was their thought.
Lucas still looked light hearted, seemingly oblivious to anything amiss, but Tatiana keenly discerned the disappointment of the two elderlies.
She couldn’t help but clench her fists, and her dissatisfaction with Oneida intensified in her heart.
Their family had never been favored by the elderlies, to begin with. She felt that they were seriously unlucky to have an addition of such a “weird” among them now….
Finally, the elderlies gave Oneida a new name–Oneida Chaser.
After all, she was a child who only returned home more than a decade later.
“Long
awaited” was what Oneida signified, and that was how her name came to be.
Ater leaving the manor, Oneida came up with an excuse of wanting to buy something and went out alone
She went to Jussipi Clubhouse
