Chapter 24
Just as they were speaking, someone else returned
Ethan tumed toward the sound and saw a beautiful woman in a purple tight–fitting dress with high heels. Compared to the other sisters he had met, this woman appeared fashionable and looked like a rich lady at first glance
“So, where’s my little brother? Aren’t you supposed to introduce him to me?”
“Hello, Wanda!” Ethan stood up to greet her. Jessie had already returned, so the woman in front of him had to be Wanda
No way, Serena. Is he really your godbrother?” Wanda sized Ethan up with a complex expression. She didn’t want to make too many comments but thought that Ethan was pretty ordinary. Apart from his looks, she couldn’t see much else worth nothing.
“He’s not just mine; he’s your godbrother too.”
“Forget it. I’m tired enough. I don’t need a brother to bother me.” Disappointed, she waved her hand and walked straight toward the dining room. She was not interested in interacting with anyone further.
She had been curious about the godbrother Serena had recognized, wondering how outstanding he might be and whether they would get along. Unfortunately, the reality didn’t meet her expectations, and she found it hard to accept
“Wanda, can you at least show some manners? Ethan hasn’t done anything to upset you, so why give him the cold shoulder?”
“I’m not bring rude. I’m just hungry and want to eat.
Serena and Jessie didn’t expect such behavior from Wanda
“Erhan, don’t mind it. Wanda’s just like that. Don’t take it to heart.
“It’s fine. After all, I’m not money. I can’t make everyone like me,” Erhan said with a light–hearted attitude.
After all, women need time to come to terms with certain things.
“Enty, I’ll tell you a secret. Actually, Wanda really does want a little brother more than anyone else, Lily whispered, fearing that Ethan might get the wrong idea about Wanda.
Lily was about the same age as Wanda. She was only one year younger than Wanda, and they were both in the same university. They had a good relationship and often confided in each other, including Wanda’s desire for a little brother.
*Lily, if you keep spouting nonsense, our friendship shall end here! Wanda’s voice came from the dining room.
Lily froze in shock, too afraid to speak another word.
“Alright, let’s just eat,” Serena called out. Everyone gathered at the table except for Cindy, who was

However, the atmosphere was slightly awkward because of Wanda’s behavior. Everyone kept silent most of the time.
“By the way, Serena, it’ll be Mr. Ziegler Senior’s birthday celebration in a couple of days. Shouldn’t it be fine if you represent the family and go?” “Why? Can’t you go?”
“Our taekwondo club is holding an internal selection, and I have to attend to prepare for the national competition.”
Suddenly, Serena placed her fork and knife down. There was not a trace of a smile on her face. An air of authority radiated from her.
“Wanda, you’re not a child anymore. I hope you can distinguish between what’s important! Let’s not even talk about how the club is just an internal selection and
not a formal competition. You’re going to skip his birthday celebration because of that? Isn’t that disrespectful?
“Don’t forget, he helped you when you got into trouble. It was because of his connections that you were released. Otherwise, you’d be stuck in jail right now!”
