Chapter 104
As soon as Kenny said that, the rest of them held their breath.
Kenny and Steven hadn’t been getting along, but they seemed fine on the surface.
Many of them in thepany turned a blind eye despite knowing Kenny had stolen Steven’s
thesis.
At this point, Kenny seemed arrogant and didn’t take Steven seriously. After all, he had juste to
beat him up.
Steven turned and punched Kenny’s face, his expression grim.
“You said Skye’s your sister. Is this how a brother should behave? Skye will only get married to
someone and will never get a sugar daddy!” he eximed.
Kenny was stunned after getting punched in the face.
He covered his face and felt an indescribable feeling when he looked at Steven, who was defending
Skr. It was as though they never wished to acknowledge that Skr had been outstanding in the
first ce. They seemed to feel better if Skr didn’t do well and if Maisy was more capable.

They wouldn’t trust or defend Skr unconditionally as Steven did.
“Have you ever treated her as a part of your family? What does she have to do with Maisy’s
sickness and needing a blood transfusion?
“You’ve been guilt–tripping her to make her donate her blood. Have you ever thought about her
health? Since you guys despise her this much, you’d better not look for her next time.” Steven spat.
“Also, Kenny Williams, you stole my thesis, yet you have the nerve toe to me! Aren’t you
ashamed?”
he questioned.
Steven rarely fought with others. He wasn’t bothered by how Kenny had been picking on him
secretly.
However, Skr was his weakness. He couldn’t bear someone ndering and messing with his
younger sister, whom he had been pampering since she was young.
“What the hell are you talking about?” Kenny was enraged.
Kenny had been living in regrets since he had stolen Steven’s thesis. He wondered why he would
do such
a lowly act back then. Now, he couldn’t even speak righteously for himself.
However, he thought Steven had no reason to act arrogantly when it was merely a thesis.
Steven sneered. He despised Kenny.
Skr hadn’t seen Joe for days.
Paul had sent her a message, telling her that Joe needed to go on a business trip for several days.
She had recently taken some time to go back and have a meal with her adoptive mother, Janine.
Then, she went to school to visit Harvey. He would sit for the college entrance exam soon, so he
had
been studying every day.
She wanted to visit Charles, but he told her that the filming site was in poor condition. He was
worried
she would feel ufortable there. Hence, he told her to visit again sometimeter.
Steven called her and told her to make an arrangement. He wanted to meet the person she had
married.
Seeing how Steven insisted on meeting that person, Skr was slightly troubled. She had no idea
how
she should tell Joe about it.
Since she was upied with work, she made up an excuse to turn Steven down. He didn’t press on
the
matter.
Skr hadpleted thest painting at Daniel’s ce. She would go for an interview at the
auction house the next day, as Daniel rmended
That afternoon, she had to go shopping with Natalie.
Natalie and Jeremy had to attend a banquet at 8:00 pm.
As soon as they met, Natalie startedining, “I don’t like attending banquets like this since I
need to socialize. But this time, they’ve invited both of us. I need to go with Jeremy even if I don’t
want to attend.
“It’s the engagement banquet for the Gardner family’s youngest son, John Gardner. Do you know
who else Is attending? Joe Martin–the man we met at the ce where we had stew the other day.
“Joe and John are childhood friends. My husband was their ssmate in college, and they’d gather
sometimes. But I’ve never met the two of them.”
Skr spaced out slightly when she heard Natalie mentioning Joe Martin.
