Chapter 234
Chapter 236: Chapter 236 Chapter 236: Chapter 236 Keira Olsen hadn’t known the value of this jade ring before.
Fearing that Poppy Hill would discover and either throw it away or sell it, she had always secretly kept it hidden.
It was only when she took it out this time that she realized the jade ring, which had comforted her as a child, seemed quite valuable.
After all, Keira Olsen had little exposure to such things, so she was not very familiar with them and wanted Lewis Horton to help her take a look.
But just as she was lifting the jade ring, a sharp sound of a heartbeat stopping suddenly echoed through the hospital room!
Lewis Horton abruptly stood up and rushed into the room.
Without needing to call anyone, the doctors and nurses had already hurried over to resuscitate Madeleine Davis again!
Lewis Horton anxiously watched them…
Keira Olsen still held the jade ring in her hand, quietly watching Lewis Horton for a long time before she finally stood up and walked out.
Her presence there was indeed awkward.
But she didn’t go far, just out of the hospital, aimlessly wandering outside.
Somehow, she found herself in front of a courier station’s reception area.
Keira Olsen paused slightly.
She looked down again at the jade ring in her hand and then stepped into the shop.
This courier station happened to be under her company’s name; the clerk recognized her and immediately exclaimed, “Boss, what brings you here p>
Keira Olsen hadn’t involved herself much in these repair and courier companies over the past few years, but she remembered these old employees.
Upon hearing this, she said, “I need to ship a package p>
Keira Olsen took out the jade ring and asked the courier for a box, which he wrapped meticulously in several layers before she thought to ask, “Do you have paper and a pen p>
“Yes p>
The courier turned around and handed her paper and a pen.
Keira Olsen then wrote a brief letter:
“Big brother:
I hope this letter doesn’t disturb you. I don’t know if you still remember me or if you’ve looked for me over these years.
I’m writing this letter to tell you, you don’t need to look for me anymore.
The promise of our childhood needn’t be kept in your heart. I am now married, happily in love, living smoothly, so no need to worry.
This jade ring doesn’t seem ordinary, and it should be very important to you, so I’m returning it to you p>
Keira Olsen wrote this letter because of Lewis Horton.
Considering others’ feelings, if that “big brother” were like Lewis Horton and also had someone he loved, would he be as conflicted as him?
She took the initiative to write him a letter telling him her current situation, also wanting to end that part of her emotional attachment.
But after writing the letter, she suddenly felt a bit reluctant.
Whenever Poppy Hill would beat her as a child, making her feel like she could barely survive, she thought of her big brother, who had promised to come for her…
Keira Olsen thought it over and added a paragraph to the letter:
“By the way, as a child I had no name, but now I do. My name is Keira Olsen. My phone number is 183xxxxxxxx. If you come to Oceanion, I’ll treat you to a meal p>
After adding this part, she placed the letter and the well-packed jade ring into a box, cushioned it with foam boards, and handed it to the courier.
The courier took it, asking, “Boss, where is this going p>
Keira Olsen smiled, “No.76 Glow Village, Cloud Town p>
As she stated the address, she felt like she was perhaps overthinking it.
“Perhaps that jade ring isn’t worth much p>
After all, number 76 in a village can’t be that grand a household, right?
The delivery person asked again, “What’s the name of the recipient p>
Keira Olsen thought for a moment.
Back then, her big brother never told her his name, only that he belonged to this family and was the fifth in their generation.
What was the last name?
It seemed he mentioned it, but Keira Olsen couldn’t recall at the moment.
She furrowed her brows in thought and suddenly remembered her big brother had once said, “The elder said I’m too stubborn, so he nicknamed me ‘Stubborn Fifth p>
Keira Olsen then spoke up, “Write ‘Stubborn Fifth p>
The delivery person’s expression didn’t change at all.
Keira Olsen, “Is this name not strange p>
The delivery person twitched his lips, “This is actually quite normal. You haven’t been doing deliveries for years, so you don’t know the bizarre names people use online nowadays! There was someone named ‘My Daddy,’ and when I called him, I had to start with ‘Hello, am I speaking to My Daddy?’ Imagine, addressing someone so informally, who could I complain to about it p>
Keira Olsen chuckled quietly to herself, then thought for a bit and said, “Here’s an idea, you personally make a trip to deliver this for me! This jade ring is fragile, so be careful p>
As a child, Glow Village seemed so far away, but in reality, it’s only about a five or six-hour drive.
The value of the jade ring was unclear, so sending someone in person felt more secure.
The delivery person responded, “Okay! I’ll head over now and ensure the package reaches the recipient p>
“It’s much appreciated p>
After seeing the delivery driver drive off, Keira Olsen didn’t return to the hospital; she just sent a message to Lewis Horton and went back to the Horton’s residence.
As soon as she entered, she saw Mr. Horton saying goodbye to Old Mrs. Horton.
Mr. Horton had a look of fond farewell, “Sister-in-law, you must take good care of yourself. I’m still expecting you to come home for the ancestral rites during New Year’s p>
Old Mrs. Horton nodded, “Sure, no problem p>
Upon seeing Keira Olsen, she couldn’t help but ask, “Where’s the brat? His elder uncle is leaving today, but didn’t he promise yesterday to come and see him off p>
Keira Olsen smiled in response, “He might have had some urgent matters p>
Old Mrs. Horton huffed, “What urgent business could be more important than his elder uncle p>
Mr. Horton laughed, “Sister, stop it! Lewis is now in charge of the entire Horton Group, he’s a very busy man! This kid is also dutiful, definitely didn’t mean to neglect us, something important must have held him up. Plus, why be formal with me? We are family after all if you miss me, just drive over p>
After he said this, he turned and got into the car.
Keira Olsen supported Old Mrs. Horton, walking forward a few steps.
Old Mrs. Horton waved her hand, “Drive safely, no rush p>
“Understood p>
Mr. Horton said this, then turned to Nathan Horton and Oliver Horton with a more serious look, “You two need to be good, understand p>
Nathan Horton pursed his lips and remained silent.
Oliver Horton smiled and said, “Got it, Elder Uncle, go ahead p>
Mr. Horton then looked into the distance and sighed resignedly.
In fact, he wanted to give Lewis Horton a couple more words of advice since he had watched over him for several years and felt a bond.
Since his arrival, he had been worried about his sister-in-law’s illness, so initially, Oliver Horton misled him about his wife.
He wondered if that brat was angry about this, so he intentionally did not come to see him off.
With that thought, Mr. Horton couldn’t help but mutter, “This stubborn fifth p>
