?Chapter 1511:
She was only Nni’s daughter’s doctor. Why was she telling Nni and her brother about her life?
Meanwhile, Nni and Elwood were both staring at Belinda, stunned. They hadn’t expected such a revtion.
Nni thought that Car had probably been angry when she realized that Belinda, her husband’s daughter with a mistress, was doing better in school than Kylee. She must haveshed out at Belinda’s mother, which was why Belinda’s mother had asked Belinda to do that.
“You must’ve endured so much when you were a child, Belinda,” Elwood said in a gentle voice.
Belinda smiled again. “Not at all. I had a happy childhood, actually.” She was telling the truth, but Elwood and Nni thought she was merely putting on a brave face.
Elwood looked at Belinda, his gaze earnest. “If you’d allow it, you can consider me an uncle to you from now on.”
Belinda turned to look at him in utter shock.
Nni was also shocked by his words. She hadn’t expected him to say something like that.
Seeing their reactions, Elwood chuckled and sighed before saying, “I’m afraid I can’t really exin it, but… Belinda, you feel like family to me.”
Belinda blinked.
In fact, she also felt the same way about him.
Nni chuckled before saying, “You know, Elwood, I was really shocked when I first saw Dr. Wright. She was wearing a mask at the time, and her eyes looked so much like yours. I even asked her to take off the mask because I wanted to see how much she looked like you.”
Belindaughed after hearing Nni’s words.
Seeing that, Elwood joined in theughter.
After a while, he turned to Belinda and said, “You should join us the next time the Wrights and rks dine together.”
“I would be happy to,” Belinda agreed without hesitation.
The rest of the meal was harmonious.
After finishing the meal, the three walked out of the private dining room together.
Just then, they ran into someone.
A faint crease formed on Belinda’s brow the moment she spotted that person.
Nni’s smile, once warm andposed, slowly faded from her lips when she saw that person. Elwood, however, appeared calm and unaffected because he didn’t know who the person was.
Across the way, Kylee froze in mid-step as she caught sight of the trio exiting the restaurant. A flicker of surprise danced across her features. This middle-aged man…
If her instincts were right—and they usually were—the man had to be Elwood, the head of the Wright family.
The realization hit her like a jolt. Her pulse quickened.
