Chapter 24 Nice To Meet You Uncle Keith

Abraham wondered why it seemed that there was something wrong with Angelina since she got downstairs.

But after happening to see Angelina gazing at Keith wonderingly, Abraham knew why.

Abraham coughed lightly and said, "Angie, come and say hello to your elder."

Angelina was extremely stunneed after knowing that Keith was her elder.

She asked in a state of shock, "Elder... Elder?"

The shock in her eyes was so obvious that even Herman and Kristin turned to look at her.

Kristin said with a smile, "Angie, you belong to the same generation as Ishmael, while Keith is indeed your elder although you and he are similar in age."

Abraham echoed, "Keith is your elder."

Abraham looked at his own granddaughter who was shocked, and smiled kindly, "Angie, you're supposed to call him Uncle Keith."

Uncle... Uncle Keith?

Uncle Keith??

Uncle???

He was Ishmael's uncle?

She finally found the truth behind the mystery.

The "Ishmael" she knew and the real "Ishmael" had the same surname, Fuller, because the former was the latter's uncle!

So she mistook Ishmael for someone else from the beginning. She flirted with the wrong man, and the wrong man was an uncle of her "future husband".

Ah! Hah!

Unable to bear this unbelievable truth, Angelina almost lost her ability to think.

What had she done?!

She asked Uncle Keith if he was satisfied before!

And she unbuttoned Uncle Keith's shirt and followed him into that hotel room.

And after she was taken to the hospital by Uncle Keith, she badgered him into applying ointment for her.

And she was about to fulfill her promise that she would marry him if he was not Ishmael.

God! At the thought of that, she felt extremely embarrassed all of a sudden...

What an embarrassing fact it was!

Abraham coughed lightly to remind Angelina not to forget herself.

Angelina regained her composure but still didn't have the courage to look up at Keith. She had to greet in a trembling and low voice, "Nice to meet you, Uncle... Uncle Keith..."

She really resisted calling him Uncle Keith!

It was too hard.

Unlike Angelina, Keith seemed to have already anticipated this situation earlier, so he looked much calmer.

He raised his eyebrows lightly and asked in a relaxed and natural tone, "Miss Jefferson, you look very nervous?"

Angelina flicked a nervous glance at him accidentally and then quickly looked away, replying in a low voice, "No... I'm not nervous..."

Keith gazed at her nervous look and chuckled softly, "Having a seat will help you relax a little. Why not drink some water to collect yourself?"

Angelina didn't know why she was so nervous that her movements were a bit stiff when she sat down.

Luckily, sitting down did make her calm down a little.

But she still didn't get out of what had happened!

It was too scary!

Seeing the strange atmosphere between Angelina and Keith, Abraham was somewhat puzzled, asking, "Keith told me you have seen each other before. Why do you still look surprised?"

Angelina just took a sip of tea, but she was a liitle choked upon hearing Abraham's words.

She suddenly blushed and couldn't help coughing lightly.

Alan, who was standing next to her, quickly handed her a tissue and reminded, "Miss Angelina, take it easy."
