Chapter 470 A Weird Family “You're not just excited, Mom. You're literally so eager you couldn'teven control yourself. Did you even notice how you frightened herjust now?” Camille sat down.Betty remained silent. She didn't mean to frighten Kathleen, but she just couldn't keep her emotionsin check. “But Mom, Kate sure does look like a Lester.” Xenia smiled. “Yeah.

Her father is a handsome man.” There was tenderness in Betty's eyes as she spoke, andshe soonbegan tearing up at the thought of Kathleen's father. Immediately, Camille and Xenia walked over tocomfort her. “Mom, don't cry.

We're lucky enough to be able to replace Kate,” soothed Camille. “Yeah.

When Anthony and Yusef are back, we can have a discussion on how to tell Kate the truth.

By then, the both of you can finally reunite,” Xenia chimed in. “I know.

I'm just too happy, that's all.” Betty wiped her tears. In the meantime, Yvonne led Kathleen to one ofthe rooms. Kathleen didn't expect the Lesters toprepare such a large bedroom for her. Thus, shesaid to Yvonne, “Ms.

Lester, I can't stay in this room.

This should be the master bedroom, right? I'll just stay in one of the guestrooms.” “No, I can't letyou.

You're our...

savior, after all.

See, I've even asked the maids to prepare you some clothes,” said Yvonne, pausing in between. Theway they treated her was precisely why she didn't dare to stay. The Lesters areweird

If they want to thank me, they could just give me money. “Ms.

Lester...” Kathleen began. “You're around my daughter's age, so you could just call me...

Aunt Yvonne.

You don't have to be so polite,” said Yvonne with an inscrutable tone. Kathleen was speechless. I'mnot the one who's being too polite.

They are all too friendly, and it's weird! Yvonne said enthusiastically, “Take a look around and tell meif you need anything else.” “Oh, it's okay.” Kathleen found ithard to turn her down. “All right then.You should get some rest.” Yvonne turned and left the room. Kathleen sighed and went to look forLevi, who was supposedly in the room next to hers. Nevertheless, he wasn“tthere when she openedthe door. She descended the stairs and went to the garden, which had a pretty scenic view. As shecouldn't see Levi anywhere, she decided to take a walk around. At that moment, she saw two kidshuddled together in the garden, each holding a tiny shovel and trying to scoop a flower out fromthe soil. “Why are we doing this?” the little girl asked with a melodious voice. “A new aunt has cometo our house.

We shall give this to her as a gift,” replied the little boy. The girl asked in excitement, “Is she pretty?”"Yeah, probably.

My mom says she's a celebrity.” “I love celebrities!” the girl exclaimed. Kathleen glanced at the poorJulietrose that was almost mutilated to death by the two children and said slowly, “The flower'sgoing to die.” The two chubby children paused in their tracks and turned to look at Kathleen. “She'sso pretty,” whispered the girl before she put on a wide grin and asked, “Who are you?” “Are you thenew aunt?” the boy questioned in surprise. Aunt? Kathleen answered, “I'm the doctor who's here totreat Old Mrs.

Lester.” “You're our new aunt!” The boy threw his shovel away and dragged the girl over, greetingKathleen, “Niceto meet you!” The girl imitated the boy.

“Nice to meet you.” Kathleen replied wryly, “Nice to meet you, too.

Stop shoveling the flower.

It's going to die.” Juliet roses were precious flowers. The Lester family was apparently quite wealthyto be able to plant such valuable flowers in the garden like it wasnothing. “Mark! You naughty boy!Are you up to no good again?” A woman who looked to be around Kathleen's age approached. Theboy, Mark Lester, took the girl's hand and hid behind Kathleen, yelling, “Help!” Kathleen stareddown at the kids speechlessly. As the woman got closer, she looked at Kathleen in surprise.

"You...

You are...” “I'm Kathleen Johnson,” said Kathleen, thinking the Lesters were a bunch of weirdos. Whyare they so shocked to see me?Don’t they know I'm here to treat Old Mrs.

Lester's illness? The woman introduced herself, “Hello! I'm Suzie, the little brat's mother.” Kathleenshook the woman's hand.

"Hi.

Nice to meet you.”

Suzie looked happy to see her.

"You're finally here.

Give me a minute.

I'm going to teach this brat a lesson.” Kathleen nodded as Suzie pulled her son over to her side,scolding, “Lookat what you did to your grandpa's precious flower! Your grandpa gave this to yourgrandma as a gift when they were dating, and you just destroyed it!” “Mom, flowers don't havefeelings, so it's totally fine! Grandpa and Grandma are already married, so the flower doesn't reallymatter now,” Mark argued irrationally. Suzie was so mad that she squatted down and smacked theboy's buttocks as punishment. Instead of crying, Mark said casually, “Take it easy, Mom.

My dad's going to be heartbroken if you end up hurting your own hand.” Suzie was at a loss forwords. Another young woman cameover.

"What's going on here, Suzie?” “Mommy!” The little girl jumped into the woman's arms. The womanwas shocked to see allthe dirt on her daughter's shirt.

“Bella! What happened to your clothes?” “Look what they've done, Ninette.

These naughty kids destroyed the rose that Dad gifted to Mom,” complained Suzie. The woman,Ninette Kirby, stared at the ruined rose andsighed.

“You kids are so mischievous.” “Mommy, we just want to gift the rose to our new aunt.” The girl,Bella, pointed at Kathleen. Ninette looked atKathleen

"You're Kathleen, right?” Before Kathleen could respond, the woman smiled and continued, “Nice tomeet you.

I'm Ninette.” “Nice to meet you too.” Kathleen nodded as a greeting. Right then, the maid walkedover and informed them, “Mr.

Anthony and the others are back.”

“Really? Let's go.

I'm sure they're eager to meet you.” Suzie let go of her son and grabbed Kathleen's hand, pullingher along. Ninette carried Bella and took Mark's hand, following behindthem. When they returnedto the mansion, the atmosphere was quite lively in the living room. Levi was chatting with thepatriarchs of the family when Kathleen and the others entered. The four men in the living roomstood up one by one as Camille and Xenia also approached. Levi curled his lips.

“Allow me to introduce them to you.

This is the head of the Lester family, Anthony Lester, and this is his son Dylan Lester.

This is Anthony's brother, Yusef Lester, and his son Nathan Lester.

As for the others, I'm sure you already know them.” Kathleen nodded.

“Hello.

I'm Kathleen.” Anthony replied placidly, “Welcome to the Lester residence.” “Thanks.” Kathleen felt alittle nervous to see all the members ofthe Lester family standing before her. It was quite a weirdlygrand scene. “Um...” She opened her mouth, wondering what to say. “Let's talk while we eat,Anthony.

Or Kate's going to feel awkward,” said Yusef with a smile. No, I already feel awkward enough.

I'm confused, too. “Okay.” Anthony nodded. When Suzie and Ninette brought the kids to wash theirhands, Kathleen approachedLevi and whispered, “I've got something to ask you, Levi.” “What'swrong?” “I think these people are acting weird.

There shouldn't be a problem, right?” Kathleen looked around her.
