Twins - The Unforeseen Legacy of My Ex's Uncle-in-Law novel Chapter 296

Lilith is clearly not just any girl; she's a lady of distinction!

"I'm only trying to be kind. If it were anyone else, I wouldn't bother taking care of her," Saskia said with a frosty expression.

Harlan sighed resignedly at his mother and went into the bedroom. Seeing Lilith staring blankly next to the wardrobe, he said, "It's just clothes. I'll buy you more, okay? Don't be upset!"

Lilith looked up at Harlan, her eyes brimming with tears. "They don't want me anymore!"

Harlan reassured her, "Your dad's still here! How could they not want you?"

Lilith sat down, feeling dejected. "They've never treated me like this before."

Harlan tried to comfort her, "Don't cry. Let's go out and grab something to eat."

He was in a bad mood too, but cheering up Lilith was necessary. After all, her father was Kendrick, and Kendrick had only her for a daughter.

Harlan was currently facing challenges from Enoch, but the future of the Larkin family was still supposed to be his.

He wasn't about to give up, not even on Lilith.

...

The two of them drove out to find a place to eat, with Lilith following Harlan into the restaurant.

No sooner had they sat down than Lilith saw two women enter.

The woman wore a hat and sunglasses, but Lilith recognized her immediately.

Harlan asked, "What are you looking at?"

"I saw Odette!"

"Are you sure you're not mistaken?" Harlan doubted.

Why would Odette come back?

After all, Enoch had been searching for her for so long!

This was unexpected!

She had just returned, and aside from her mother, hadn't told anyone. She just wanted to sneak out for a meal, not expecting to run into Lilith at this off hour.

Lilith, already in low spirits, felt a glimmer of hope seeing Odette!

Drusilla's marriage to her uncle was solely because of Wendell.

Wendell's heart had always been set on Odette; Drusilla was just a stand-in. Now that Odette was back, what place would there be for her in the Taylor family?

Lilith grabbed Odette's hand, "You don't have to be afraid of seeing me. In fact, I've been hoping for your return!"

"Really?" Odette finally looked up, unable to keep up the act. She looked at Lilith and said, "How's your uncle doing?"

"The same," Lilith replied. "But... Grandpa has missed you terribly! Don't you want to see him?"

"I'd rather not!" Odette flatly refused. "I know your family's been eager to find me, but marrying your uncle is out of the question! A cripple expecting me to look after him for life? Dream on! And hasn't my sister already married him in my place? You can't go back on that now!"
