Meeting Again

….

Ellis saw Uncle Olsen’s expression and couldn’t help himself from asking, “Uncle, since Mrs. Olsen said she didn’t want to see you, why don’t you just go back? She’s heartbroken now, and your presence here is not making things any better.”

Uncle Olsen glared at him.

Ellis immediately realized that his comment might have been too harsh.

He coughed and then said, “You just mentioned something was amiss, so what is it that’s not right?”

Uncle Olsen lowered his eyes. “Miss South has always been strong-willed. Her daughter has died, and the murderer hasn’t been found. Would she ask me to leave? When she sent me the message, my first thought was that she would want me to avenge her daughter.”

Jodie South was never a weak character.

Her health wasn’t good, and she was fainting frequently, but a person’s nature wouldn’t change.

Ellis couldn’t help but ask, “Then why don’t you just barge in and ask her directly?”

Uncle Olsen gave him a sideways glance.

Ellis immediately understood something. “No way, no way, have I stumbled upon something? Ha! Uncle, you’re not afraid of anything, but you’re afraid of Mrs. Olsen getting angry?”

Uncle Olsen was speechless.

He wondered what he should do with this idiotic nephew.

He did fear that it was Jodie’s wish for him not to interfere, and if he disobeyed and barged in, Jodie might end up hating him.

Uncle Olsen silently sighed and looked down at his phone.

Unexpectedly, after sending out the message, there was still no response from the other side.

It was just like last time when they made plans but he had to rush off with Jodie to the sea to search for someone, and while waiting for the retrieval process, he remembered the appointment and sent her a message.

The young friend also didn’t reply at all.

At the time, he thought the young friend was angry, but now that he thought about it, when they met at the Horton family’s condolence visit, she didn’t seem to hold a grudge against him!

Uncle Olsen was puzzled and scratching his head, but he quickly thought of something, opened WhatsApp, found “Howard,” and sent a message. “Where are you staying?”

Howard indeed replied immediately. “Four Seasons Hotel. Uncle Olsen, is there something you need?”

Uncle Olsen. “I’m coming to find you. I’ll take your whole family to dinner tonight.”

It was a gesture to make up for missing the appointment with the young friend last time.

After seeing Mrs. Olsen, Keira gave several orders to Samuel to find the murderer as soon as possible.

When she ultimately parted with Samuel, and he asked, “Boss, when will you be able to reclaim your identity?”

Keira knitted her brows and said, “We’ll talk about it after the murderer is found.” 𝔣𝖗𝖊𝖊𝖜𝔢𝔟𝔫𝔬𝖛𝖊𝔩.𝖈𝖔𝔪

Only when she knew who the murderer was and why they wanted to kill them, and could ensure her own safety, could she live under her true identity again.

Keira arrived at the Four Seasons Hotel.

Just as she found the private room where Howard and his family were staying, she saw Howard and his mother excitedly preparing clothes. Howard’s mother even took out Amy’s dress to dress her up beautifully.

Glancing at Keira, Howard lifted his chin and scoffed. “You’re just in time to come bac for dinner. Hurry up and change into something more formal. Don’t embarrass me tonight!”

Keira paused slightly. “Dinner?”

Howard then excitedly opened his mouth. “Yes, today Uncle Olsen and I hit it off immediately. Do you know who Uncle Olsen is? He’s the one in charge of the Clance Olsen family, one of the five major families of Clance. He just sent me a message saying he is inviting us to dinner tonight!”

Howard’s mother chimed in right away. “Son, you are so capable, to think that coming to Oceanion we could encounter such distinguished people, and you’ve managed to get connected! My god, that’s the Clance Olsen family! Normally, we could only see such people in financial magazines, and he has taken a fancy to you!”

When Keira heard Uncle Olsen’s name, she was slightly stunned.

Before, Uncle Olsen had frequently wanted to meet her, but she hadn’t gone to see him, and now that she had become Keera, she suddenly got the opportunity.

But how could someone like Howard ever get in touch with Uncle Olsen?

She glanced at Howard and saw that he was indeed handsome, with a refined and scholarly appearance—a truly good-looking fellow. It must have been this handsome face that had charmed Keira!

Little did anyone know he was just an empty suit!

The look of disdain in Keira’s eyes made Howard chuckle. “I told you, I’m really good at business. Today, I had a chat with Uncle Olsen about future economic trends, and he listened patiently throughout. Now he has invited me to dinner, which must mean he thinks highly of my insights! Alright, let’s go, we can’t keep Uncle Olsen waiting!”

Keira didn’t bother with idle chit-chat. Since she had decided to investigate her sister’s death under the guise of Keira, she would play along with them to avoid complications. She bowed her head and changed into a suitable tweed coat. Then she went into the bathroom to carefully wash off the iodine on her face… Although the color wouldn’t fade immediately, at least it wasn’t as yellow as it had been during the day.

Once they were dressed, they headed downstairs. Howard chose Fragrance Hall on the car’s navigation and started the vehicle.

Howard’s mother asked, “What place is Fragrance Hall?”

Howard immediately replied with pride, “Fragrance Hall is a famous private restaurant in Oceanion. I’ve just heard about it. It seems to be owned by Mrs. Horton, and it’s hard to get in without a reservation! The elites of Oceanion love to dine here. Uncle Olsen inviting us to eat here shows he really values me!”

Howard’s mother immediately glared at Keira. “Son, I have always known you are destined for great things. You’ve always been the most impressive in our village. What a shame to marry Keira! Speaking of which, your status doesn’t sound good when you mention it. Keira, once we return to Clance, immediately change her surname to Howard’s, otherwise, I won’t acknowledge her as my daughter!”

Howard immediately said, “It doesn’t matter if a girl changes her surname or not. Keira, when you get back to Clance, just transfer the company shares and legal representative status to me, and add my name to the property ownership certificate…”

Keira seethed inwardly but didn’t speak. If she was going to assume her sister’s identity, she would reclaim everything that belonged to her sister! But for now, she couldn’t be bothered to argue about these things.

Seeing Keira’s lack of response, Howard’s mother became irate. “What kind of attitude is that? You are eating Howard’s food, living in Howard’s house, and even dining in a private restaurant like Fragrance Hall, all thanks to Howard’s connections! You must change your name once we return! Have you heard me?”

Keira’s expression turned cold, and Howard intervened. “Okay, Mom, that’s enough, we’re here.”

Howard’s mother gave her a fierce look, “Take care of that burdensome girl, and make sure to behave properly later. Don’t get dazzled by the wealth and humiliate my son. If you do, I’ll punish you and that burdensome girl severely afterward!”

They parked the car and had just gotten out when someone greeted them, “Is this Mr. Smith’s family? Uncle Olsen has been waiting for you in the private room for a long time.”

Howard immediately smiled. “Yes, that’s us, please lead the way.”

The assistant to Uncle Olsen held a different status in Clance, and people like Howard couldn’t afford to act superior in front of him. The assistant smiled and walked ahead.

Howard and his mother entered the grand Fragrance Hall first. The place was elegantly decorated with a classic feel, and there were little streams and bridges. The whole atmosphere was distinct. Howard and his mother cautiously surveyed their surroundings, and his mother even whispered a warning. “Keira, hold that burdensome girl tight. Everything here is incredibly valuable, and if you accidentally break something, selling you wouldn’t cover the cost!”

Keira snorted to herself.

Finally, they arrived at the door to the private room. Howard nervously adjusted his clothes, and after proudly glancing back at Keira, he pushed open the door.

Keira looked in indifferently and caught a glimpse of a mature man sitting inside. He was brewing tea, and upon hearing the door open, he looked up. His subtle movements exuded an aura of nobility, inspiring a sense of awe.

Howard’s face brimmed with eagerness to please, and his mother barely dared to breathe. Only Keira paused for a moment, then cried out, “Handsome Uncle?”
