Good Genes
Was I in a trance? I blinked my eyes hard.
Odette smiled as she continuously picked up food for me. "It's the perfect season to eat crabs. Eat more."
"I don't know how to use the eight tools to eat the crabs at all. The crabs sent to Sky City last time were directly torn down by me. In order not to disgrace them, I simply stopped eating."
During the meal, the Smith family ate happily.
Except for me.
I was just killing time.
Finally, the meal was about to end. I found an excuse to pee and go out for some fresh air.
Just as I was standing in front of the French window in a daze, Abdi came over. "Don't you want to be in contact with us that much?"
Looking at Abdi, who was standing shoulder to shoulder with me, I couldn't help but feel that my mother's genes were really good.
Abdi's facial features were strongly defined, and he had an angular face. He was handsome and charming. However, he was just a bit inferior to Carroll.
"Why are you looking at me?"
I thought for a moment and replied, "In fact, you're no different from strangers to me. We're just related by blood. Why do I have to show affection and acceptance?"
Abdi stared blankly at me for a moment. Then he talked about Odette and spoke for her. "Odette is very good."
"I don't know whether she's good or bad, but you're very nice." I smiled at Abdi. "You treated me to a meal, helped me defend myself, and gave me money. You're much better than second brother. Second brother only lectures me."
"Big brother, Kelly." Spoke of the devil and he came. Odette came over with a delicate face. "Are you looking at the scenery? Can you see the stars?"
As she spoke, she squeezed between me and Abdi and naturally grabbed his arm.
I made way for her and rolled my eyes at the window. "Do you want to see the Milky Way?"
She looked as if he was afraid that I would take him away.
At this time, the beautiful receptionist came over again. "Mrs. Brown, the car is waiting for you in the parking lot. Tomorrow's breakfast will be sent to your home as usual."
As if I had seen a savior, I nodded repeatedly. "Then I'll go first. Goodbye, big brother."
At this time, Odette was completely shocked. She probably couldn't figure it out. She thought the food here was a rare good thing, but I had it every day in Sky City.
I'd have to thank her for giving me the chance to marry a dead man. Otherwise, why would I have the title of Mrs. Brown?
"Mrs. Brown, you..."
As soon as I entered the elevator, the beautiful receptionist was hesitating behind me.
Her mouth moved a few times, as if she was thinking about whether to speak or not.
I tilted my head and looked at her. "Miss, do you have anything to tell me?"
The beautiful receptionist sighed softly. "Mrs. Brown, I want to remind you to be careful of Miss Odette."
The elevator went down very fast, but it was steady. There was no noise at all. I could hear her nervous and messy breathing.
A few seconds later, I laughed and comforted her. "Didn't she discuss with Madonna how to make me give up the will? Don't worry, Miss. I know that she can't be so kind to me. My name is Kelly."
The title "Mrs. Brown" was too stiff. It sounded like I was nobler than her, which made me very uncomfortable.
"My name is Melody. You are really the most approachable noble lady I have ever seen."
Looking at Melody's shocked look, I found it funny. "Melody, I'm an ordinary person."
When the elevator arrived, the car was waiting at the door. I walked out, and Melody shouted in the elevator, "Kelly, I heard that Odette called and said that you wanted to take everything from her."
I didn't stop and said without looking back, "Leave her alone. I'll see you next time."
As for everything about Odette, I sat in the car and gave it a simple once-over.
The identity of the daughter of the Smith family, my biological father, and my twin brother.
Why did these seem to belong to me?
Why did she want to take these? It was boring.
Back in Sky City, Rose was waiting at the door. As soon as she saw me, she whispered, "A guest from the Brown family has arrived. It's the Fourth Miss."
In my mind, I quickly recalled the people of the Brown family.
This Fourth Miss seemed to be the illegitimate daughter of Carroll's Third Uncle. What was her name?
Beside me, Rose kindly reminded me, "Sandy."
Eh!
Was she a worm in my stomach? I sighed with emotion and went to the living room under her guidance.
Sandy was seated on the sofa. Her appearance was ordinary, but her temperament was outstanding.
Dressed in a expensive black dress, she looked like a queen.
"So are you my sister-in-law?" Sandy asked, taking the lead.
I nodded blankly. "Nice to meet you."
"I finally see you. Among my brothers, I have the best relationship with my big brother. Now that he's dead, I have to keep in touch with you more in the future."
As she spoke, she gave me an exquisite gift box.
The pink bow tied on the gift box was particularly eye-catching.
Holding the gift box, I was very happy. This girl was not bad.
I looked at Sandy who was my age and had a good impression of her for no reason, so I asked with interest, "Do you have a good relationship with Carroll? Was he once embarrassed?"
"Haha, do you want to hear it?" Sandy burst into laughter. She opened the gift box on the coffee table and there were exquisite pastries in it. "Let's talk while eating. I made it myself. Sister-in-law, have a try."
"Okay."
I was deeply in love with Carroll's younger sister.
My eyes were shining. I picked up a piece of pastry and took a bite. It was so fresh!
It was a taste that I had never tasted before. It was natural and fresh, which was much better than the usual sweet and greasy food. "What is it made of?"
"That's my unique secret recipe," said Sandy. "Shall I tell you about my big brother peeing in his pants?"
"I want to hear it."
In Cheuk Restaurant, I basically didn't eat anything. My poor stomach was already empty. I couldn't resist such delicious pastries at all.
I couldn't stop eating.
Sandy told me a lot of interesting things about Carroll, and I was fascinated by them. The more I listened, the dizzier I felt.
"Sister-in-Law, I'll be taking my leave first." Seeing that I was pressing down on my temples, she looked at her diamond-covered watch. "Shall I come to visit you next time?"
"Okay."
When I saw Sandy off at the door, I suddenly felt dizzy. The whole room seemed to be spinning.
"Rose, is there an earthquake?"
"Rose?"
I shouted a few times and felt like my head was going to explode. I could only hold the cabinet at the door and go back.
However, why were the things in the house so soft today?
In particular, I felt like I was stepping on clouds, unable to land steadily.
Huh?
Was it dawn?
I spent an entire night chatting with Sandy, didn't I?
I looked at the floor-to-ceiling window which was as bright as day in confusion. A rainbow came in from the window.
This was so beautiful.
I reached out and was about to touch it when I completely lost consciousness.
