Chapter 47 

Because it was Saturday, Jaylan had no work and little Carl didn’t have to go to the preschool, so everyone had a lazy start. 

Zora was busily preparing breakfast while I played with blocks with Carl on the couch, and Jaylan had just descended the stairs. 

The doorbell rang and Jaylan strode to answer it. 

The unexpected guest left us all stunned. 

But none were more shocked than Zora 

When she saw who had entered, she stood frozen in place before setting down the bowl she was holding. She quickly walked over, grabbed the girl who had come in, and started to pull her back outside, urgently whispering, “Why are you here?” 

The girl struggled subtly 

“Zora, who is this? Why won’t you let her in?” I asked, 

Zora stopped and turned to look at me, her mouth twitched slightly before hurriedly explaining. “Sir, Ma’am it’s it’s my sister” 

By now, Jaylan, who had answered the door, had returned and took his usual seat, watching the drama unfold with a deep gaze 

The girl, looking timid, waved at us and greeted us in a shy voice, “Hello, sir, ma’am!” 

I cast a lazy glance her way A seemingly innocent girl, as pure as a daisy, had walked in. 

She was shorter than Zora, petite and looked slightly malnourished. 

Wearing a white knitted sweater, a floral skirt with a blue base, and a pair of white shoes, she looked refreshingly simple. It fit her modest $300 monthly budget 

Entering her eyes nervously scanned the room, clearly filled with astonishment, quickly followed by a flash of envy 

“Come in and sit down!” I said in a friendly tone. “Zora, you have a sister? All these years, you’ve never mentioned your family. 

Zora seemed a bit flustered, she glanced at Jaylan, still trying to push her sister out 

I beckoned to the girl, “Come in and sit down. Zora, get the food ready!” 

Then I turned to the girl, “You haven’t had breakfast yet, have you?” 

“No not yet!” She forced a smile, glanced at her sister, and nervously said, “I came to see my sister about something!” 

“Why didn’t you just call? Why come all the way here? Zora scolded her in a low voice. 

  1. I’ve been calling you for the past couple of days, but you didn’t pick up. I was worried, so… I came to find you!” She said, looking timidly at Zora, like a frightened little bunny. 

“Let’s talk while we eat Jaylan, who had been silent, finally spoke and stood up to go to the dining room 

chuckled inwardly. A hawk would never let a bunny go. 

I indicated to Zora to pick up Carl 

Then I also got up and said to the girl, “Since you’re here to see your sister, dont be shy. You haven’t had breakfast, let’s eat together 

The girl looked timidly at Zora, who picked up Carl from the couch with a cold expression and said in a not–so–friendly tone. “Let’s eat then!” 

The girl followed us closely to the dining room. 

As I sat down, I invited her to sit next to me and asked, “What’s your name? How old are you?” 

“Clara” Her soft voice was pleasing to the ear, I’m 21” 

“Are you studying? I followed up 

“Yes, I am!” 

“At Goldenvale Town University?” I asked curiously. 

“No, at Amethyst Acres University, majoring in Medial” She answered quietly 

I had heard of Amethyst Acres University, a less reputable institution, and I already knew her background like the back of my hand 

“So you’re about to graduate then 

Yes Tm currently looking for an internship, so i thought I’d try in Goldenvale Town. There are more opportunities here!” Clara said, glancing at Zora who was busy serving the food as if she was afraid of her sister 

Zora, after setting the table, coldly said, “Just find a company in Amethyst Acres for your internship You’re going to go back to our hometown after graduation anyway, so stop wandering around!” 

“But I don’t want to go back home! Claras voice grew fainter and her head hung lower 

Zora’s face hardened when she heard Clara say this
