Burnell broke up her family and made her leave her husband and son.<\/p>\n<p>Kanna&#8217;s son is indeed John&#8217;s half-brother.<\/p>\n<p>However, John has never met him before.<\/p>\n<p>John looks at the picture on Lily&#8217;s phone. He is so shocked that his face freezes.<\/p>\n<p>Lily just keeps staring at John.<\/p>\n<p>After an unbearable stretch of silence, she couldn&#8217;t help but say, &#8220;John&#8230;.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That&#8217;s impossible! That&#8217;s not true!&#8221; John suddenly stands up and smashes her phone onto the carpet. &#8220;Jonathan! He made it up! How, how could I&#8230;.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;John, calm down.&#8221; Lily hurries over and grabs his hand tightly. She feels so bad for him. &#8220;Kanna&#8217;s real name was Scarlett Streep. She married Armond, and they had a son, Louis.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No! No!&#8221; John can&#8217;t believe it. He pushes Lily away and throws himself on the sofa. &#8220;This can&#8217;t be true. You&#8217;re lying.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>John gradually lowers his head, looking lonely and sad.<\/p>\n<p>Lily sits down and hugs his shoulder. &#8220;I know you can&#8217;t accept it, but it&#8217;s true. Louis is your half-brother.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We live far away from each other. We don&#8217;t even know each other.&#8221; John just doesn&#8217;t want to believe it. This half-brother of his took Lily away from him.<\/p>\n<p>John suddenly hates everything!<\/p>\n<p>He clenches his hands and says with much hatred, &#8220;Burnell, that bastard, he was married at that time. Why did he steal another man&#8217;s wife? Why Louis&#8217; mother!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s not your fault. Don&#8217;t think about it.&#8221; Lily tries to comfort John in a soft voice. &#8220;You just need to take advantage of your father&#8217;s preference for you and take over the Krislier Group. As long as you become the owner of this manor, you can do whatever you want, including revenge.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>John looks up at Lily. &#8220;When did you know about this?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;After you met Kanna. My brother called and told me.&#8221; Lily does not hide it from John.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Does he know it?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Lily nods. &#8220;John, you are Louis&#8217; brother. But he knows it&#8217;s not your fault. And he does not hate you. I tell you about this, because I don&#8217;t want Jonathan to affect you later. I know it&#8217;s unfair to you that I tell the truth now. If you want to beat or scold me, just do it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No, I would never do that.&#8221; John strokes her face and whispers, &#8220;I know you&#8217;re doing this for my good. I just hate that such a dramatic thing happened to me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He could accept anyone but Louis. It&#8217;s a real slap on his face.<\/p>\n<p>Lily purses her lips and remains silent.<\/p>\n<p>When she knew about it, she was even more devastated than John. She couldn&#8217;t accept it either.<\/p>\n<p>But that could not change anything. The only thing she could do is to prevent Jonathan from succeeding. She must not turn John and Louis against each other.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, John and Louis do not care about their relationship with Meghan. They don&#8217;t know if Jonathan tells Meghan about this or what would happen to her. No one cares about her.<\/p>\n<p>But Lily does not know that Meghan has returned to Country Y. And she is hiding in the Krislier Manor!<\/p>\n<p>Jonathan comes out of Burnell&#8217;s study at 9 pm.<\/p>\n<p>He looks as if he has a pleasant talk with his father. He is not that gloomy as he was in the living room a few hours ago. Instead, he&#8217;s smiling and looks vigorous.<\/p>\n<p>Jonathan goes downstairs and takes his coat from a servant. &#8220;I&#8217;m going to Brodie&#8217;s place. I have an important cocktail party tomorrow. I need a new suit.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I see, Mr. Jonathan. Do you need me to take you there?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Meghan is nestled in Jonathan&#8217;s arms. Her black hair spreads over his chest. Her eyes are almost closed, as if she is sleepy.<\/p>\n<p>Jonathan strokes her soft hair and asks, &#8220;When did you get here?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;A week ago,&#8221; Meghan says lazily. She puts her chin on his chest. &#8220;It&#8217;s a good thing that you bought Brodie off long ago. Otherwise, I don&#8217;t know where I should go.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;John&#8217;s dog has been chasing you?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yeah. That dog&#8217;s got a good nose!&#8221; Meghan says angrily, &#8220;He knew it when I arrived in the country. He almost killed me at the airport.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Jonathan narrows his eyes. &#8220;I spent a lot of money to hire those people, but they can&#8217;t even beat John&#8217;s dog.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Forget it. We can get someone else.&#8221; Meghan looks up at him. &#8220;I heard that John and Lily live in the Krislier Manor?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You just heard it? I know you found someone to mess with the dress.&#8221; Jonathan pinches her cheek and says with certainty, &#8220;Thanks to you, the manor is in chaos tonight.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Meghan snorts after Jonathan calls her bluff. &#8220;Who would have thought that he will come back? He&#8217;s sick, but he still wants to compete with you for the Krislier Group? I&#8217;m so angry. I just want to teach him a lesson.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She leaves Jonathan&#8217;s arms and asks with caution, &#8220;What&#8217;s wrong? Did I mess it up?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No, on the contrary, I&#8217;m very satisfied.&#8221; Jonathan strokes her cheek with his fingers. &#8220;Only a servant died. My father let it go and gave me a large amount of money.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Why?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Jonathan tells her what has happened in the living room a few hours ago.<\/p>\n<p>Then Meghan falls back into his arms again. She hugs him tightly. &#8220;Seles, I&#8217;m here with you. I will always love you and stay with you. We&#8217;ll have a lot of kids, and we will be happy forever.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Jonathan&#8217;s eyes flicker. He doesn&#8217;t give her a positive answer. Instead, he asks, &#8220;Are you clean?&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-2313","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/2313","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2313"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
