Chapter 1069 Back To S City (Part One)


    "How can they be the same? Leena is one of our family members, after all. Obviously I ought to be

    close to her. But you, you really are a silly girl, ire! Miss Ye is just your guest. And fine, she''s also


    the daughter of your father''s friend. But in any case, she is not family. Am I wrong? Leena is different.


    She is your brother''s wife, your sister-inw, and our daughter-inw. How can Louisa and her be the


    same?" Shannon had a lot of words to say on this matter. One had to admit that she was correct and


    being sensible. ire couldn''t find anything to contradict with what she said.


    "Who says she can''t be one of our family members? It''s just a matter of time," ire said abruptly. She


    voiced out what she had been secretly hoping for all along.


    "ire, what does that mean? I hope you aren''t really wanting that. I don''t like what you are implying


    and I don''t want to hear it a second time. Understood?" Shannon grew serious all of a sudden and


    stared at ire with stone cold eyes. So this was what ire was nning? Shannon was sure that it


    would never happen. As long as she was in this family, she would not allow Louisa to be in it!


    "All right, all right! I understand. I admit I was wrong." ire stuck out her tongue at her mother. ire


    was being careless today. She should have kept the secret to herself, instead of spilling the beans to


    her mother.


    "I hope you truly understand that you were wrong. I don''t want to see you hatching plots behind my


    back, or I will be merciless. No one can protect you then," Shannon warned her daughter. She knew


    she had to be strict with ire. Otherwise, if she didn''t threaten ire enough or failed to let her know


    the seriousness of this matter, ire would definitely stir up trouble and do more damage.


    "Mom, I was just kidding! I didn''t mean it like that. Why are you treating me like Imitted a serious


    crime?" ire pursed her lips. She had only said the first thing that jumped to her mind. Why on earth


    was her mother so angry with her? If she was this furious right now, ire couldn''t even imagine how


    vexed her mother would be if she really did go behind her back and cause trouble for Leena. Just


    thinking about it sent a chill down her spine. She could already picture how miserable her life would


    be if her mother ever found out that she had promised to help Louisa with her schemes.


    "Joking about it is bad enough. What, you really want to make Louisa a family member?" Shannon


    could see through her daughter effortlessly. It was clear that ire wanted Louisa to be her sister-in-


    Leena''s marriage was no ordinary rtionship. Kevin was in the military. He was a soldier. It wouldn''t


    be so easy for him to divorce and marry another woman. What was ire thinking? Did she think it


    would be as easy as grocery shopping?


    "No! I didn''t say that. I mean no harm, okay? Mom, fine. You win. I don''t want to argue with you


    anymore." ire shuddered at her mother''s words. Well, it looked like it would be difficult to help


    Louisa get her brother. Judging from her mother''s attitude right now, ire could already tell that her


    mother would never ept Louisa. She got so angry at ire''s words and was treating ire like she


    wasn''t her own daughter.


    "I am not kidding. You would do better to remember my words," Shannon was still concerned, and gave


    her daughter a final warning. She knew her well. ire was very likely to stir up trouble. Even if


    Shannon warned her a hundred times, ire still wouldn''t take her words seriously.


    "Dad! Come save me! I feel helpless. Mom wouldn''t let me exin at all." ire massaged her


    forehead and sighed deeply. She had brought this upon herself. She shouldn''t have said all that to her


    mother without thinking. Also, she should have stayed in bed this morning. Why did she even get up


    ande down to talk to her mother, only for Shannon to scold her?


    "ire, you are not a little girl anymore, but you still act like one." Nathan liked spoiling his daughter,


    that was true. But he still couldn''t contradict his wife for his daughter''s sake. He couldn''t afford the


    consequences. Shannon woulde after him.


    "Wait a minute. Where are Kevin and Leena? Are they still sleeping? At this hour? They should get up


    already! I''ll go and wake them up," ire said, before turning around to go upstairs. She wanted to


    escape from her mother as soon as possible, in case she decided to scold her further. However,


    Shannon called out, stopping ire in her steps.


    "ire, wait! Don''t wake them up yet, let them sleep. I know the two of them didn''t get enough restst


    night. They must be sound asleep right now. Let them be." Shannon''s eyebrows furrowed. ire was


    so negligent. How could she be so oblivious? She should know better than to bother her brother and


    his wife right now.


    "Umm... How do you know that, Mom?" ire asked her mother, lowering her voice. Why did her


    mother know that Kevin and Leena didn''t sleep muchst night? She couldn''t have been outside their


    bedroom eavesdropping, could she? Well, considering how much her mother wanted a grandson, it


    was indeed something she was likely to do.


    "ire, what are you thinking? Your brother had a feverst night. I am guessing Leena stayed up all


    night to take care of him. They must be too tired right now, so they are still sleeping. Get your mind out


    of the gutter, will you?" Shannon tapped on ire''s head, pretending to be annoyed. Her daughter was


    still an unmarried girl. Why would she think this kind of things?


    "Oh! Kevin really is ill! How did I not know that? I should go and check on him," ire announced as


    she got up, ready to go upstairs again. This time, her mother didn''t hesitate to pull her down by her


    arm.


    "Didn''t you hear a word of what I said just now? Don''t bother them! Let them sleep. Did you really


    forget everything I said so soon?" Shannon felt helpless when it came to her daughter. She had told


    her not to wake up her brother and Leena only a few minutes ago! Of course ire forgot her words


    right away. It looked as if whatever she said to her fell on deaf ears.


    "All right, all right. I won''t bother them. Satisfied? I''ll eat breakfast with Dad. Wait, where did he go?"


    ire looked around the room in confusion. Nathan was nowhere to be seen. It seemed that he had


    sneaked away in silence, while the mother and daughter were arguing.


    "He is in the dining room, eating his breakfast. Do you think he would wait on you?" Shannon rolled her


    eyes at her daughter. She was getting fed up with her behaviortely, and she almost lost her temper


    just now. At least there were no guests with them at this time of the day. Otherwise, Shannon would


    have surely felt embarrassed for ire.
