Forced to Marry the Sickly Billionaire-Chapter 27 - Mistaken for an Illegitimate Daughter

She raised her hand to poke his arm and said, “Hubby, I’m hungry.”

Lucas Shaw said, “There’s food kept warm in the kitchen for you; go eat.”

Serena’s eyes brightened, and she quickly planted a soft kiss on her husband’s cheek, “You’re so good, hubby!

Mwah～”

After saying this, she swiftly put on her shoes and ran out.

Watching the cheerful figure of Serena leaving, Lucas Shaw’s ears reddened slightly as he looked down and pondered.

Mwah?

What does that mean?

When Serena said this, her tone was lively.

It probably means happiness, right?

Lucas Shaw thought he got it right and chuckled softly.

Indeed…

still a child.

Downstairs.

When Serena went downstairs, it was pitch black around her.

Only a few dim night lights were still on.

The vast villa was empty and dark, which seemed a bit scary.

Serena searched for a while but couldn’t find the switch, so she had to rely on her memory to head to the kitchen.

She lifted the cover of the casserole, and a fragrant aroma of chicken soup assailed her senses, causing her to squint her eyes subconsciously.

So fragrant, but a bit greasy—Serena wrinkled her nose in distaste.

She quickly opened the refrigerator and saw that there were a lot of snacks inside.

Potato chips, cola, and even spicy strips?

Serena’s eyes lit up as she hurriedly took out the snacks.

Thus, in the unusually quiet villa, a faint “crunch” sound was heard.

After returning from a concert in Imperial Capital, Adrian Shaw rushed back to the Shaw Family’s old residence as soon as possible.

As he yawned and prepared to go upstairs to rest, he heard a series of “crunch crunch” sounds coming from the kitchen.

The kitchen lights were still on.

He furrowed his brows in confusion.

At three o’clock in the morning, who would be in the kitchen?

Could it be…

a burglary?

Driven by curiosity, Adrian Shaw changed direction and walked towards the kitchen.

As he got closer, the “crunch crunch” sounds became louder and louder; Adrian Shaw subconsciously held his breath and kicked open the half-ajar door.

Looking inside, he saw a girl with her hair draped over her shoulders, dressed in a pink knee-length skirt, squatting on the floor.

Around her, there were several bags of potato chips and spicy strips.

Adrian Shaw: “!!!”

His potato chips!

His spicy strips!

His long-cherished snacks!

Were being stolen just like that!

“Thief!

Give me back my chips and spicy sticks!”

Adrian Shaw said in a low, stern voice, and Serena was startled, dropping the potato chip that was about to reach her mouth onto the floor.

She turned her head in shock, and saw a young man about her age standing at the doorway, glaring at her with fury in his eyes.

Those eyes seemed as if she had stolen his most treasured possession, as though he couldn’t wait to devour her to quell his rage.

Staring blankly at the angry teenager approaching, Serena Summers extended the half-eaten snack bag in her hand towards him, “For you to eat?”

Sharing is caring.

“What the hell do you mean sharing is caring, these are all mine!

Mine!” Adrian Shaw was so angry that his chest heaved violently.

He could never have imagined, that barely after he went out for a concert, his treasured snacks hidden in the fridge would be pilfered!

And by an unfamiliar girl!

Suddenly thinking of something, Adrian Shaw quickly started to examine Serena, “Who are you?

Where did you come from?

Spit it out!”

Serena looked at Adrian Shaw’s angry face, and then at the snack bag she had been offering for so long without anyone taking it, and took it back.

Continued eating.

“Crunch crunch…”

The sound of chewing chips rang out again.

Seeing this, Adrian Shaw exploded with anger.

In his twenty years of life, he had never seen someone so audacious.

He stood with one hand on his hip, the other pointing at Serena, sputtering “you, you” for a long time, eventually turning red-faced and blurting out, “How old are you?

When did he bring you into the Shaw Family?

Did Grandpa agree?”

Adrian Shaw felt a sudden sadness at the possibility that crossed his mind.

For a moment, he no longer cared about the snacks that had been eaten.

He lowered his head, his eyes unblinkingly fixed on Serena, as if he wouldn’t rest until he got an answer.

Serena, perplexed, tilted her head and honestly replied, “I’m twenty, I came the day before yesterday, Grandpa let me stay.”

Adrian Shaw’s breath hitched, his eyes immediately reddening.

His hands clenched into fists as he glared at Serena with extreme anger in his eyes.

Twenty years old.

Same age as him.

She looked even younger than him.

Vincent Shaw, that bastard, had been fooling around outside while his mom was pregnant with him!

Not only did he have an illegitimate daughter, but this illegitimate daughter was also the same age as him!

Filled with fury and a bitter sense of injustice, Adrian Shaw wished he could throw this girl who had ruined his family out of the house.

But in the next second, a fair and delicate hand suddenly appeared before him.

The hand now held a different bag of chips, being offered to him.

“Really not going to eat?

They’re really tasty!”

The girl looked up with a beautiful face and bright eyes, sparkling under the light like a night sky strewn with broken starlight.

Dazzling and captivating.

Although she extended the chips to him, her eyes clearly showed reluctance.

Adrian Shaw hardened his heart, snatched the bag of chips, and grabbed several pieces, stuffing them straight into his mouth.

These were originally his after all, why wouldn’t he eat?

He wouldn’t let this illegitimate daughter get the better of him!

Serena had never seen this teenager in the Shaw Family before, and didn’t understand why he was looking at her with such complex eyes.

However, sneaking into the kitchen to eat at night naturally meant sharing the spoils.

So, despite her reluctance, Serena still passed the chips to Adrian Shaw.

After finishing the bag of chips, Adrian’s emotions slightly eased.

He began to seriously examine the girl before him.

Fair skin, bright teeth, a beautiful face.

She must take after that vixen, as there wasn’t the slightest resemblance to Vincent Shaw.

He snorted internally, thinking that for the sake of the chips, he would temporarily forgive her.

Adultery was the affair of adults; as the elder brother, he couldn’t vent all his anger on his innocent sister.
