“Mom, don’t worry about the future. I’ll find a boyfriend and introduce you to him when this is over,” Lina said
jokingly, not wanting her mother to worry too much.
Her parents had already worried too much for her. If only her marriage could give her parents peace of mind,
then… she would try her best to marry!
Grace received a call from the kindergarten teacher saying that something had happened to her daughter and
wanted her to come over.
Grace instantly felt a thump in her heart. “What happened?”
“Here’s the thing… Jasper got into a fight with another child, and they… got a little injured… the teacher said.

Jasper’s hair too.
As one was the adopted daughter of the Reed family while the other was the heiress of the Reed family who had
just returned, the class teacher could not offend either side. Hence, they could only make this phone call with
caution.
Grace hurried to the kindergarten. However, before she could walk into the teachers’ office, she heard Irene
Lynch’s shouts.
“Do you have any manners? How has your mother taught you? You and Oriel are sisters, after all. How could you
pull Oriel’s hair like that? Did you do it on purpose? You… You’re so mean for your age…”
“She’s not my sister!” Jasper Reed’s childlike voice replied.

sharper.
“No! I only have a brother!” the little one retorted bluntly. xo.com fast update
“Did your mommy teach you to say that? How long have you been back? What will happen when you grow up if

mommy. You have to apologize to her!”
Grace happened to reach the office door and saw her son’s tiny body in front of her daughter as he defended her

“Apologize? Mick, Oriel’s your sister too. Don’t you like Oriel? Why don’t you treat Oriel as your sister anymore?
Your mommy must have said something to you, right? Did she tell you to stop being nice to Oriel?” Irene Lynch
spoke aggressively.
Oriel Lynch was also looking at Mick Reed with pitiful
reddened eyes. “Mick, I… I’m your sister too. Why are you only helping her and not me?”
