Chapter 131 Marcus''s Birthday Presents
Chapter 131 Marcus''s Birthday Presents
This banquetpletely made the rich in theirwork realise how wealthy the Brook family was,
and itpletely showed them how much they doted on Nancy, a daughter they got back from the
countryside.
It is estimated that from today, no one would secretly say contemptuous words that the little girl from
the Brook family came from the countryside.
Before saying things like that, they shouldpare their wealth first. None of their dads have more
money than this little girl, which was pathetic.
Not to mention the excessive protection and favour of her brothers, she was also very outstanding.
There was no need to discuss her appearance as there was no ugly gene in the Brook family and
her behaviour was also not bad. Although she is shy and nervous, she was not timid at all. She was
very smart and soft, which was very popr among the elders.
She was as fair as nephrite jade, with a delicate face. She had a soft voice and great manners. Who
would say that she embarrassed the Brook family? She was the pride of the family!
When the banquet was about to end, Yvonne finally found a chance to talk to Nancy.
Nancy went to thedy''s room, and when she came out, she saw Yvonne walking toward her.
Nancy had a good memory, so she still remembered Yvonne, not to mention that the experience this
family brought her was not good.
Nancy wanted to pretend that she didn''t see her and tried to pass her, but she was stopped by her.
Looking at Nancy''s outfit, Yvonne thought that the dress alone was probably worth a lot of money.
The gem on the hair crown must be real because the Brooks who doted on her so much would
definitely not give her a fake princess tiara.
Holding back the jealousy in her heart, Yvonne put on a smile on her face, "Nancy, I''m your cousin."

Nancy nodded earnestly, her clean eyes staring at her, "I remember you. You came to my homest
time."
The smile on Yvonne''s face froze, and her eyes darkened. It was definitely not a good memory for
Nancy. Yvonne thought that children had bad memories and that Nancy was such a narrow-minded
person as she could remember this for so long. Just as expected from a girling from the
countryside.
Yvonne intended to have a good rtionship with Nancy. Now it was already not possible to let
James adopt Liz, so she decided to change her strategy. As long as she could pretend to get along
with Nancy, it would be easier to take things from her little by little in the future. Given that Marcus
and the other brothers pampered Nancy so much, she must have a lot of good things.
Thinking of this, the expression on Yvonne''s face became eager, and she approached to hold
Nancy''s hand, but expectedly Nancy vigntly withdrew her hand.
Although she had a nice temper and seemed easily bullied, that was only for her brothers who really
liked her.
She was very sensitive to people''s emotions. Although the cousin in front of her looked warm and
gentle when she smiled, Nancy just didn''t like it.
Nancy''s delicate little brows frowned, and she looked at her with clear and translucent eyes, as if
she could see directly into the bottom of her heart.
Yvonne felt a little guilty and resented her for pulling her hand back. But she hid all these emotions
very well.
"Nancy, I''m sorry, my grandma and the others crossed the linest time, but they really didn''t have
any bad intentions. They wanted uncle James and aunt Windy to adopt my sister, and it was
because aunt Windy was so sad that she fell ill and was in hospital several times since you got
lost."
Yvonne said sadly while observing the reaction on Nancy''s face. The corners of her mouth rose a
little at the sight of the guilt on Nancy''s face when she heard that Windy was sick and in hospital.
Children were indeed easy to coax and easily softened.
"Hey... I couldn''t even watch it during that time, so my father came up with the idea which was
giving my sister to your family so as to apany aunt Windy. After all, my sister is about the same
age as you. Aunt Windy might feel better if she had you, but we didn''t expect aunt Windy to miss
you so much that she would rather be in bad health than take my sister.
But we really don''t have any bad intentions. After hearing that you were brought back, we were also
very happy. But my grandma was too old so a bit stubborn. That''s why she acted like that in your
housest time..."
She sighed before finishing the rest of her words, "Anyway, for your return, we are all I am very
happy. Nancy, I am your cousin. Of course, I hope you can be well. At that time, when I saw you
being so thin and small, I couldn''t believe it. What kind of life did you live in the past? It hurts to see,
but fortunately...fortunately, uncle James has brought you back."
Yvonneughed again, but her eyes were red and she looked at Nancy very distressedly as if she
generally cared about her.
A simple child might have been shaken by her words and moved by her tears, but Nancy wrinkled
her little face and looked at her with clear eyes, thinking that she still didn''t like her.
Nancy''s eyes were nk and puzzled. Obviously what this cousin said seemed to be right, and her
expression was sincere, but Nancy just didn''t like it.
She doubted herself if she was too bad, or if she didn''t want Yvonne to take her brothers?
Nancy nodded in her heart, thinking that the brothers belonged to her and she didn''t like others to
take them.
When Nancy was worried, Yvonne was also anxious. This reaction was different from what she
expected. What if brother Marcus or other brothers found out that something was wrong and came
over to find her...
"Nancy."
Yvonne was anxious so she grabbed Nancy''s hands.
"Let go of her!"
There was an angry voice at this time. Louis came over with his lips pursed, and his deep, dark
eyes looking at Yvonne coldly, like an angry ck panther, fierce and wild.
Yvonne''s face suddenly turned pale. She thought that it was over. She didn''t manage to make
Nancy like her. This was not gonna be good.
Yvonne''s mind turned very fast, and her fast-beating heart gradually calmed down.
She thought to herself, "It''s okay. It''s okay. I just came to talk to Nancy. Nothing else."
"Brother Louis."
Yvonne thought to herself what a lousy name is this. Louis should refer to someone with great
manners. But he was the rudest person!
Louis''s sharp beast-like eyes made her legs go weak, and she really wanted to turn around and run.
"What do you want to do?"
Louis pulled Nancy behind him, like a beast protecting the cub, showing sharp fangs to any
creatures around him that might threaten the cub.
"Nothing."
Yvonne looked so pitiful. She was about to cry with the tears rolling in her eyes, but she tried to hold
the tears so they did not fall.
"Brother Louis, you misunderstood me. I really didn''t do anything. I just came to thedy''s room and
met Nancy to chat with her. If you don''t believe me, ask her."
Louis turned back to look at Nancy. Instead of cold and fierce eyes, his eyes softened visibly when
they fell on Nancy.
It would be heartbreaking for anyone to face such different treatment.
Yvonne was no exception, but... what could she do? She was not his real sister.
Wait! Nancy was not Louis''s real sister, either!
Yvonne was so jealous. She wondered why was that. She was obviously their sister, too. Why did
they treat her worse than a stranger! She had known them longer than Nancy!
Yvonne''s fingernails almost hurt her palm, and she gritted her teeth to suppress her unwillingness
and jealousy.
Under Louis''s inquiring eyes, Nancy shook her head obediently, "Brother Louis, she didn''t bully me.
Brother Louis, let''s go."
Although she didn''t bully her, Nancy still didn''t like her.
She should stay away from her from now on.
Nancy thought with a wrinkled face. She always felt that what Yvonne said before was weird, but
her little head couldn''t figure out what was wrong.
