Chapter 296 How Simr
"Ouch." Anna snapped out of it with Oliver’s reminder and blushed instantly. Once she talked to
Jacob, she forgot about everyone else.
Oliver was rather surprised by Anna''s girlish mannerism. Looking at how she was acting, it was
obvious that she was smitten. He could not help scrutinizing Jacob.
Then, Oliver realized that he recognized the man.
"You’re the developer of the SL System?" Oliver asked with interest.
"Yes," Jacob answered.
"Hahaha!" Oliver looked both approving and admiring. "Good job! The system is our Canadian
pride. And Joseph Shaw that fool, his sh*t-eating self was hrious."
Oliver could not help cackling when he recalled the video.
What he watched was obviously an internal circted uncensored video, so he managed to catch a
clear sight of Joseph''s embarrassment.
"Oliver, Jacob''s amazing," Anna said with a grin like she was sharing his pride.
Oliver looked at Anna before looking at Jacob and made several nods. "Mm, not bad, quite the
match."
“What are you saying..." Anna blushed harder.
"You, girlie, I was going to fight for justice for you, but now it seems that you don''t need my help at
all?" Oliver felt amused.
"Ah, I have nothing for you to fight about. It was a small misunderstanding previously. It''s all been
cleared up now. Besides, I wasn''t exactly treated badly," Anna said and ran to Susan. "Oliver, let me
introduce you to Susan, aka Mrs. Shaw. It''s odd, but the first time I saw Mrs. Shaw, I felt like I''d
known her for a long time. Mrs. Shaw feels the same way towards me, right?"

Anna looked up at Susan with thetter nodding with a beam.
Oliver took a casual nce at the said girl before his eyes widened.
Her eyes... How simr!
It would have been fine if he did not notice it, but now that he did, Oliver could not shift his gaze
away from Susan''s face.
He stared at her as time ticked by, putting a frown on Julian as he blocked the former''s gaze.
"General Wright," Julian called him out directly, "Is it not a little improper to be staring at somebody''s
wife?"
"My apologies." Oliver tore his gaze away, still looking a little dazed.
She looked really simr. Could there be such a coincidence in this world?
No, it was impossible.
"Oliver, are youing to take me back? But I don''t want to go back yet," Anna said in a huff, not
noticing Oliver''s oddity.
Her brother could not even leave the military, so it meant a lot when he came to look for her
personally. H e was definitely taking her back now that he found her.
For some reason, however, she could not bear to part with that stupid man...
Anna stole a peek at Jacob, feeling mounting frustration. He still owed her a favor.
"Don''t want to go back? Then we won''t for the time being," Oliver stated straightforwardly.
"Huh?" Anna looked at her brother in confusion, deeply doubting that her ears had failed her.
"That’s set," Oliver said and looked at Julian. "Mr.
Shaw, I''vee to Ningcheng in a hurry and haven''t found myself any lodging. Can I trouble you
for some time?" i
He was looking at Julian, but the corners of his eyes fleeted to Susan. Even Anna could see that
something was wrong.
Why was her older brother staring at Mrs. Shaw! She thought that it was time he looked for a wife
but... but Susan was married! She and her husband shared a good rtionship too!
Before Julian answered, Anna tugged Oliver.
"What?” Oliver looked at his sister confusedly.
Anna pulled him to a corner before whispering," Oliver, Susie, and Julian love each other deeply.
They can basically die for each other. No one can stand in between them."
"Oh." Oliver nodded. "And?"
He was bewildered as to why Anna was suddenly telling him this.
"Tsk!" Anna stomped her foot. "I know that it''s hard to meet someone you like and it''s a challenge to
hold yourself back but we, the Wrights, are notable people. We can’t snatch someone else’s wife." 1
Oliver was speechless. What the heck! Were they not living in modern times? Why was there a
wifesnatching plot?
"Anyway, you''re my older brother, but if you''re going t o push it, I''ll stand on Susie''s side for sure,"
Anne said sternly.
Oliver was even more speechless. Then, he was struck with the realization that his action just now
seemed to have caused some sort of misunderstanding.
"Don''t worry, I''m not thinking about separating the husband and wife," said Oliver.
"Then you...” Anna''s gaze was sympathetic. "My poor brother. He found love finally but it has to be
onesided."
"You''re overthinking it," Oliver deadpanned.
"It''s okay. I understand," Anna sighed.
Oliver red at her without malice before dragging her over by her cors.
"Mr. Shaw, don''t misunderstand." Oliver said, "I don''t mean anything by staring at Mrs. Shaw. I just
think that her eyes are really simr to my mother''s."
"Mom''s?" Anna was stunned before she looked carefully. After some time, she asked in doubt,
"But... n o?"
Oliver sighed. "That''s because you''ve never seen what Mom used to look like. Since Rosalie was
lost, Mom cried every day. She no longer looks like what she did before. Her eyes only have
sadness in them now. Of course, they don’t look simr. But take a look at this photo."
Oliver retrieved a photo from his wallet. It was a young couple with a boy around five to six years of
age.
Anna stared at her mother in the photo and looked at Susan before gasping, "They really look
alike!"
Oliver took the photo and passed it to Julian. "Mr. Shaw, you guys have a look too."
Both Julian and Susan were quite astonished when they saw the photo. The woman in the photo
looked demure and gentle. Her eyes were at least eighty percent like Susan''s currently.
With the misunderstanding resolved, Oliver continued. "Mr. Shaw, can we sit down and talk about i t
now?"
His gaze still drifted to Susan, but no one took it wrongly this time.
Julian gave it a thought and agreed. "It''s quite cramped here. Let’s go to my house."
At the Shaw Mansion, the handful of them had just sat down when Oliver spoke up impatiently,
"Sorry for my direct question but... Mrs. Shaw and Mr. Shelby, are both of you... biological siblings?"
