Chapter 551: Chapter 550
Lewis Horton immediately followed and saw a familiar face.
That person was wearing a white coat, looking astonished at Keira Olsen, with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his face.
That face, Lewis had seen it back when he was in Oceanion.
Once, due to some misunderstanding, Keira had ended up in the police station and was taken to the hospital in an anemic state.
In the hospital, it was this man named Matthew Olsen who treated her.
Matthew Olsen told her she had iron-deficiency anemia, which could lead to fainting and shock, very dangerous if it happened.
But wasn’t he a doctor from Oceanion? Why was he here?
And why did Keira come here to find him?
At this moment in the hospital room, there was another patient who was frowning at Keira: “Who are you? What do you want? You have to wait in line to see a doctor!”
Keira Olsen did not pay any attention to this person, and Matthew Olsen spoke: “I’m sorry, I have some private matters to discuss with this young lady…”
The patient immediately got upset: “Why should you? Doctor, I’ve been waiting here patiently in line for you, and this is how you treat me? I’m going to report you to the hospital, I…”
Before he could finish his sentence, a stack of money appeared in front of him.
The doctor was taken aback for a moment.
Lewis Horton had already stepped forward, stuffing the stack into the man’s hand: “Could you please step outside and wait for a bit?”
His tone was very polite, but carried an aura that did not leave room for refusal.
The patient hesitantly closed his mouth and took the money out the door.
Finally, the hospital room quieted down.
Lewis looked at Keira Olsen and then at Matthew Olsen again before turning to close the door, but he found that the lock had been kicked broken by Keira and it couldn’t be locked at all.
Tsk tsk.
This was enough to suggest just how irate Keira had been, almost like she was about to commit murder.
Thinking this, Lewis simply leaned against the door frame, blocking the entrance.
Then he turned back to look at the two of them.
Keira Olsen stared at Matthew Olsen, who sighed, “Keira, have you come to find me because there is something you need?”
“Don’t pretend. I know it was you, you’ve always been the one sending me those messages.”
Keira Olsen bluntly pierced through the veil.
Matthew Olsen paused, his gaze lowered, a trace of darkness flashing in his eyes, then he looked at her: “What makes you so sure?”
Lewis was also quite curious.
He was not familiar with Matthew Olsen, having only seen him provide a blood transfusion to Keira back in Oceanion, and from their relationship, it seemed that Keira had kept some distance from him.
Matthew Olsen had also maintained a polite distance to Keira, so Lewis hadn’t investigated this person.
As he was contemplating, he heard Keira Olsen speak: “Musheng, you want a reason, fine, I’ll give you one.
I’ve always been curious why you would appear every time I encountered danger.
After I left home, there were a few times I fell ill without realizing it and passed out, and it was you, my neighbor across the hall, who saved me.
Even the first time I got my period, with no experience and fainting due to iron-deficiency anemia, it was you who transfused iron elements into me, so I could survive.
It seems like you have always understood my body better than I do, so, Musheng, who exactly are you?”
Matthew Olsen hesitated for a moment and then smiled: “Can’t I just be a neighbor who admires you? Haven’t you discovered my secret? That’s why you’ve kept your distance from me ever since.”
He spoke with a tinge of resentment in his tone.
Lewis Horton immediately stood up straight, his eyes showing caution.
Kiera Olsen just laughed: “Yeah, I always thought you were a kind neighborhood big brother, living across from me, always taking care of me, until one day, I went to your house and found the photos of me that you had hidden.”
Kiera Olsen lowered her eyes.
She was truly frightened at that time.
Having just moved out of the Olsen Family, she was extremely lacking in a sense of security, a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl living alone. In those four or five years, it was all Matthew Olsen taking care of her.
She truly treated Matthew Olsen as family, as a loving older brother. Back then, she and Matthew Olsen had a very good relationship.
Whenever she earned money and bought fruit, she would always bring some for him.
Until she was seventeen, when she entered Matthew Olsen’s room by chance and saw a photo of herself that he had hidden away…
The girl, brimming with youth, had been repelling everyone due to her early life experiences.
The neighborhood big brother she had finally accepted, who was also a doctor, was gentle and patient. She had come to rely on him, but she never expected that her neighborhood big brother would have such feelings for her.
Kiera Olsen was stunned at that moment.
Later, she realized she didn’t like Matthew Olsen and, not wanting to trouble him, chose to distance herself proactively. The only exception was her monthly iron infusions, which she still went to him for.
Because she had always been his patient.
So the relationship between Kiera Olsen and Matthew Olsen was complicated.
Until this moment, Kiera Olsen couldn’t help but laugh: “Sorry, I was being presumptuous. I thought the person in that photo was me, never imagining it could be my sister.”
At these words, Matthew Olsen’s face suddenly stiffened.
He clenched his jaw, seeming still wanting to deny it.
But in the end, he just sighed: “How did you figure it out?”
Kiera Olsen said: “Because that photo is actually very strange. The background is a place I don’t recognize at all. At the time, I didn’t think much of it, assuming I had gone to some attic unintentionally, but after my sister appeared, I had this suspicion.”
She looked at Matthew Olsen: “Although I have never been to that background, it should be the Winter Palace, right? My sister has always been in Clance, it makes sense she’s been there, I even found her album in her house, with a set of photos taken at the Winter Palace matching that photo you had. So…”
Kiera Olsen paused, then looked straight at him: “You are actually my sister’s Guardian, aren’t you!”
Matthew Olsen stared at Kiera Olsen, hesitating to speak, not admitting it.
Kiera Olsen continued: “Did my sister know about my mother’s and my existence and ask you to protect us?”
Matthew Olsen frowned, but seeing how earnestly Kiera Olsen was looking at him, he finally sighed: “Correct. She has always been powerless, a low-profile person, not wishing to strive for much, so the South Family had given up on her, assigning me to protect you and madam.”
Kiera Olsen was silent for a bit, then slowly said: “So, the last time on the ocean, when my sister and I were abducted, was it you who rescued us?”
Matthew Olsen clenched his fists: “Yes.”
“Why didn’t you rescue my sister!”
Kiera Olsen demanded.
Matthew Olsen closed his eyes: “When I arrived, she had already sunk to the bottom of the sea, I had no idea where to even start to salvage her, I could only save you.”
Kiera Olsen pressed: “Then why did you bring me to Clance? And tell others I had almost drowned in a swimming pool, you gave me iron, and then sent me back to the South Family?”
At these words, Matthew Olsen immediately looked at her: “Because I wanted you to take revenge for your sister!”
Kiera Olsen was stunned.
Matthew Olsen’s eyes reddened: “Your sister was so unassuming. She just wanted to curl up in a small corner of the South Family and live well, but those people from the South Family wouldn’t let her be! It was those people from the South Family who killed your sister!”
Kiera Olsen watched the emotionally stirred Matthew Olsen, slowly walked up to him, and patted his shoulder: “Musheng, tell me, what exactly is going on with the South Family?”
