Chapter 623
When Kelly returned to the Collins family, only Brenda was at home. She was reading the contract in the study.
When she heard that Kelly had returned, a trace of light flashed across her calm eyes.
She casually took a shawl and went downstairs to welcome Kelly. Her tone was gentle and warm, with just the right amount of enthusiasm and happiness. “Kelly, you’re back.”
“Brenda.” Kelly held Brenda’s hand. She was so happy that her eyes narrowed into slits. “I haven’t seen you for a few days. I miss you so much.”
Her voice was sweet and soft.
Brenda held Kelly’s hand and sat on the sofa. She sized Kelly up a few times and said in a concerned tone, “You’ve lost weight. Did anyone bully you at the old residence?”
“No.” Kelly leaned on Brenda’s shoulder. “Grandpa dotes on me a lot. No one bullies me.”
“That’s good.” Brenda nodded and heaved a sigh of relief. Then, she asked, “When are you going back? Will you stay for dinner? Or do you have to leave in the afternoon?”
Kelly was stunned.
Why did it feel like Brenda was chasing her away?
“Brenda.” Kelly turned to her and pouted. “Why are you chasing me away? Don’t you want me to stay?”
“You’re staying?” Brenda couldn’t control her emotions this time. She was very surprised and asked, “Aren’t you going back to Grandpa’s place?”
Kelly nodded. “Yeah, I’m not going back. I’ll stay at home for the night. I have to be on set tomorrow for the film. The scene this time is a closed shoot, and I might not be able to come out for a few months, so I’m back today.”
‘How could this be?‘ thought Brenda.
A thoughtful look flashed across Brenda’s eyes. “Is Mr. Walter still at the old residence?”
“He left.” Kelly did not understand why Brenda suddenly asked about lan, but she still answered truthfully.
“Illegitimate sister?” Brenda’s expression was mocking. “It’s fine if Father betrayed Mother. After all, he was schemed against and drugged. But now, Kelly, the illegitimate bastard, is showing up in front of Mother every day. Who do you think would put up with that?
“I can ignore her, but I can’t ignore my mother’s feelings!”
“Brenda…” Dylan sighed.
This granddaughter of his was the smartest among his grandchildren. If not for her poor health, the Collins family would definitely have been handed over to her in the future.
Brenda was good at every aspect. She was smart, beautiful, and filial, but she was too arrogant. If not for the Collins family, it would have been difficult for her to accept Kelly.
“Brenda.” Dylan’s expression turned serious as he reminded her sternly. He said, “No matter what you think, you can’t fall out with Kelly on the surface. We’re not sure what Mr. Walter is thinking, so we can’t offend Kelly.”
“Grandpa, don’t worry. I know this.” Brenda’s tone was cold.
