In Search of Susie
So, the two siblings started eating ice cream with a swoosh and focused their attention on it, quickly forgetting about what had just happened.
Hamza stood on the side, with a serious expression on his face and a meticulousness in his eyes, reminiscent of when he used to write exams. In his mind, he calculated...
Do you have a younger brother? Do you have a younger sister? One or two?
If it's a younger brother, then his name is Kent. If there are two, then their names are Lyle and Lynn. Hmm...
Very rigorous.
He had many candidate names: Hardy - how formidable! Harold - why not!...
What if it's a girl? Hamza never had this thought for a moment, as if he had never considered having another sister... only an annoying and headache-inducing younger brother.

Evelyn returned home in a disheveled state and looked at herself in the mirror, thinking about how she had been scolded by Jinny.
She got so angry that she grabbed a bottle of face cream and smashed it against the mirror.
"Jerk!" she cursed loudly, no longer caring about her image at home.
"What's so great about it? Just relying on your looks a little?"
"A clueless fool who can't even speak, causing embarrassment everywhere. I wonder how long Mr. Murray can tolerate you..."
Evelyn gritted her teeth, firmly believing that Jinny had obtained Martin through unsavory means.
It is normal for men to appreciate beauty, and it must be admitted that she is not as beautiful as Jinny, nor does she have a good figure like Jinny...
But she was smarter and more intellectual than Jinny, successful in her career, financially independent and had a strong personality.
Only she deserved Martin, only she could become Martin's virtuous helper.
Jinny? She was just a vase, what else could she do besides spending Martin's money!
No matter which slightly sophisticated woman she lost to, she never felt so unwilling. But losing to Jinny completely ignited Evelyn's deep-seated dissatisfaction.
At that moment, the doorbell of Evelyn's house rang.
After being kicked out by Jinny today, she returned to the art exhibition as there were matters to attend to. Both her body and mind were exhausted from the whole day, and at this moment, she felt nothing but annoyance upon hearing the doorbell.
"Who is it?" she asked, glancing at the doorbell.
I saw a young man wearing a long robe standing outside the door.
Evelyn was stunned for a while before she finally remembered.
Wasn't this her younger cousin Matthew, who at such a young age didn't want to live anymore and became a priest in the mountains?
Evelyn opened the door and exclaimed, "What a rare visitor, how did you come?"
Matthew reverted back to the seriousness and rigidity that Susie first saw in him, and asked, "Cousin, have you recently been coveting things that don't belong to you and straying from the right path?"
Evelyn opened her mouth and felt a surge of annoyance at being exposed.
She crossed her arms and frowned, saying, "What nonsense are you talking about? I never coveted anything that wasn't mine. Everything I pursued was noble and righteous. Would I ever do something as despicable as coveting someone else's belongings?"
"With my current reputation and status, I lack nothing and I am not short of money. People who pursue me are lined up all the way to the land of kimchi. Why am I so foolish to do something that is not beneficial to myself?"
Matthew couldn't help but wonder as he listened to her speak so confidently.
What? Did he make a mistake?
It shouldn't have happened...
However, after meeting the junior master, Matthew also became humble and thought that it was normal for him to make mistakes.
But he still didn't want to give up. In his divination, he unexpectedly figured out that he might be able to find the person he was looking for through his cousin Evelyn.
Wasn't he looking for the junior master?
"Cousin, have you recently encountered a child, a very adorable little girl? She must be the cutest child you have ever seen! Her father is tall and extremely handsome, if you have seen him, you will definitely remember..."
Matthew finished speaking and stared at Evelyn intently.
Evelyn was also genuinely startled in her heart!
The cutest little girl she had ever seen, and she immediately thought of Susie.
Moreover, her "father" was exceptional... Of course, Evelyn immediately thought of Martin.
She believed that Matthew didn't know that Martin was Susie's uncle, so he mistakenly thought he was Susie's father.
Evelyn was very surprised that even Matthew could figure it out.
She naturally couldn't admit it!
"I have never seen the cutest child you mentioned," Evelyn said impatiently. "What exactly do you want to do?"
"Are you trying to say that I used to do things to destroy other people's families? Do you think I would still try to seduce someone when they already have a daughter? What are you implying, Matthew! Are you also planning to tell Grandpa?"
Grandfather would never tolerate such a thing. Although Evelyn's father and Matthew's father are brothers, there is also a hidden competition between the two brothers in the family.
Matthew's father had originally wanted Matthew to inherit the family business and help him compete together... However, Matthew ended up becoming a priest.
Evelyn thought that Matthew's sudden appearance was for the purpose of plotting something for his father.
Matthew sighed, "Cousin, you misunderstood. I didn't mean anything else, I just wanted to find someone."
Evelyn grabbed the doorknob and said, "Well, then you must have mistaken, I have indeed never seen the father and daughter you mentioned. It's already evening, and even though we are cousins, it's best to avoid suspicion. I won't entertain you."
He closed the door after saying that.
Matthew was disappointed after he failed.
Little master, oh little master!
Where were you, exactly!
God knows, during this period, in order to find the little master, he asked almost all the sects he knew.
Do they know about Micky School? Do they know where the headquarters of this faction is located now?
No one knew the result...
