It seemed that Raymond's family had been going through a lot lately.
Jasmine said, "I planned to follow your advice and have my family accept Asher as my brother. But I just couldn't bring myself to do it.
"I can't believe how much my dad has changed because of him. When I finally talked to my dad, I realized I never really understood him."
Her voice choked with emotion as she spoke, and Mia handed her a tissue. Jasmine's vibrant confidence had waned since she had first returned to the country.
Mia empathized with Jasmine. How could Jasmine accept her respected father to bring Luna's son into the family just to have a male heir because he favored sons over daughters?
Jasmine wiped away her tears and asked, "Mia, are you disappointed in me? I thought I could do it, but in the end, I just couldn't."
Mia responded, "No. You've done well considering the circumstances. Many would have crumbled by now.
"It's just a matter of time before you come to terms with everything. And there's still hope. Your father's preoccupied with the Yellow Island incident and seems lost on how to address it."
"He brought it upon himself," Jasmine said with a wry smile.
She added, "He's been dealing with Yellow Island and trying to make deals with the Barrett family. He clearly wanted to distance himself from your family. I've tried to talk him out of it, but he is stubborn and won't listen to me.
"All the money he's spent over the years was managed by my mother. Does he really think being the top elite family is that easy?"
Considering all the support her mother had given her father and seeing her health decline while his career took off, Jasmine assumed her father would treat her mother better.
However, she was shocked when her father went to such extremes for what he considered essential—a male heir. Didn't he understand how devastating her mother would be if he brought Asher home?
Mia had already investigated Raymond's rise to success and discovered that he owed much of it to his wife. For a moment, Mia was speechless.
Half an hour later, Jasmine finally calmed down. She looked at Mia earnestly and said, "I need your help with something."

The readers' comments on the novel: Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen
Enjoyed reading this but I agree that the last chapter seemed rushed. Maybe if the author had done a few more chapters to let us know if they remarried or not - could there be a second book in the running. Anyway we'll done....
Who's Claude in chapters 276/277? Have I missed a chapter or something?...
I've never encountered a book with over 1,000 chapters. Does the author or platform not use an editor? The writing and grammatical errors are quite frustrating....
Why does it read status ongoing? If it’s ongoing chapter 1187 isn’t the end, I’m confused...
Chapter 1187 is the end? Too soon of a ending if its the ending they just ruined the sorty for me...
It reads 7 chapters per day, yet today only 2...
Patiently waiting for her to realize they belong together...
