80 Her Origin
Frankie came here to confront Isla, so he brought many bodyguards with him, all of whom had stern faces. As soon as they entered, they blocked the way and looked very menacing.
Isla was terrified, her face white as a sheet. Tears welled up in her eyes, but she didn’t dare to cry.
Taylor had never seen such a scene before and was fiercely protecting Mrs. Olsen, looking flustered.
Mrs. Olsen was usually in poor health, but she was the most composed at this moment. She frowned at the people in front of her, remaining unruffled throughout.
After Mr. Allen called out her name, Mrs. Olsen was slightly startled. She looked at Mr. Allen and hesitated for a while before speaking. “Mr. Allen?”
Mr. Allen nodded. “Yes, it’s me.”
He frowned and looked around. The Olsen family’s background wasn’t worth mentioning in his eyes. Therefore, he hesitated for a moment before saying,

“Back then, you and your sisters were sought after by many suitors in Clance. How did you end up marrying
into…”
Although he didn’t finish the sentence, his disapproval
was apparent.
Taylor’s expression changed slightly, revealing a hint of
resentment.
Mrs. Olsen, however, changed the topic by clearing her throat. “Mr. Allen, what brings you to our place?”
Upon hearing this, Frankie angrily said, “I’m here to hold Miss Isla accountable!”
Mr. Allen immediately reminded him, “Frankie, Ms. South is your elder. Please be more respectful.”
Choked by his words, Frankie could only calmly
recount the events.
After hearing that not only did Isla fail to help a girl in distress, but she also spewed out vicious words and hammered the nail on the girl’s downfall, Jodie immediately changed her demeanor.
Upon hearing further that Isla impersonated Keira and claimed her credits, she clenched her fists tightly. She

was slightly trembling with anger, and the medicine she took could no longer suppress her coughs.
She covered her chest and began to cough violently.
Taylor quickly held her shoulder and gently patted her back. “Shirley, don’t worry. Don’t get upset…”
Seeing this, Frankie found it inappropriate to say anything else.
Mr. Allen also hurriedly said, “Ms. South, don’t worry. Since Isla is your daughter, let’s forget this matter, and we won’t pursue it.”
Frankie frowned. “Dad.”
Mr. Allen gave him a stern look.
Frankie had to remain silent.
With one hand on her chest, Mrs. Olsen looked up at him, “Mr. Allen… cough…cough… about this
matter…cough… I’ll… punish her accordingly… and give you an… explanation…”
Seeing her like this, Mr. Allen repeatedly waved his
hands. “No, have some rest. My son and I will take our
leave.”

Having said that, he pulled the reluctant Frankie out
the door.
Before leaving, Frankie glanced at Keira. Seeing her swollen cheeks and her eyes fixed on Mrs. Olsen, he
could only leave first as she made no movement.
Once in the car, he frowned. “Dad, what relationship do you have with Ms. South? Why did you help her so much? You haven’t done anything to betray my mother, have you?”
Mr. Allen slapped him on the head. “What nonsense are you spouting? Back then, she did our family a great
favor!”
Only then did Frankie relax.
However, Mr. Allen frowned. “I always feel like I have forgotten something… Never mind. I don’t want to
think about it.”
He then sighed for Jodie South, “The once famous woman, how did she fall to this state…”
In the room, everyone was oblivious to their
conversation.
At this moment, the living room was filled with Mrs.

Olsen’s coughing. Taylor was at a loss for what to do, and his ed-rimmed eyes were full of distress. “Shirley, what’s wrong with you? How can we stop the
coughing? Let’s go to the hospital!”
Keira moved forward, handing Mrs. Olsen a cup of
water, and picked up her medication from the table.
About two minutes later, Mrs. Olsen’s coughing finally
subsided.
She appeared abnormally flushed and looked at Isla.
“Kneel!”
Isla couldn’t believe it and exclaimed, “Mom?”
“I said kneel!”
Mrs. Olsen’s emotions ran high, causing her to cough
once more.
Taylor couldn’t help but interject, “Shirley, don’t be angry, it’s not such a big deal.”
Mrs. Olsen said angrily, “The most important thing about a person is their character. She first pretended to be Dr. South, and now, she’s stealing Keira’s credit. How can I not be angry?!”
Seeing her getting irate and about to cough, Keira

quickly said, “Ma’am, getting angry is bad for your health.”
Upon hearing this, Taylor looked directly at her and cursed, “You knew Shirley’s condition, so why did you bring them here?! Do you want to kill her?!”
Keira clenched her fists and said, “It wasn’t me who brought them here.”
She was explaining to Mrs. Olsen. As for the others,
she didn’t care at all.
Mrs. Olsen nodded. “I know. You came in ahead of
them to send a warning, right?”
Keira lowered her head, her eyes getting a little teary
Mrs. Olsen understood her.
She had never been one to give unilaterally.
Taylor, however, sneered. “Shirley, don’t be fooled by her! If she really cared for you, she would’ve said it was her and her sister who made the phone call together! The Allen family would surely let it go!”
Mrs. Olsen suddenly looked at him. “How can you be so shameless in your deeds? We’ve been too indulgent
of Isla, and that’s why she turns out this way!”

Taylor was speechless.
Isla suddenly stood up from the sofa and said, “Turn
into what?!”
She glared at Mrs. Olsen and yelled, “I’ve turned out this way because of your pressure, haven’t I?! Just ask around. Which family will value an illegitimate child as much as you do? In your heart, am I always inferior to
her?”
Her tears rolled down. “Since I was little, I’ve always
had to be better than Keira because I was afraid you
would like her and not me! This became more
pronounced as we grew up. What did I marry Jake for? It was to gain your attention! I wanted you to know that your daughter is the best!
“Keira Olsen, do you feel proud? Your mom interfered in my parents’ marriage, and you took my mom from me! What are you pretending to be upset about? Even after you left the Olsen family, you’re still lingering with my mom through Dr. South’s identity!
“I worked so hard in college, but I’m still outdone by her… If I hadn’t stolen her identity this time, Jake would have called off the engagement!

“I did all this just to impress you, Mom!”
After yelling this out, she ran upstairs and slammed her bedroom door shut.
Mrs. Olsen stood there in shock.
She looked up at the stairs in disbelief. “Am I really like
that?”
She felt there was some truth in it but couldn’t point out where she was wrong.
Deep down, she truly favored Keira more. She knew it was wrong, but she couldn’t control it…
Taylor sighed. “Shirley, Isla is our own daughter, and Keira is an outsider. You really…”
But he didn’t finish his sentence.
He glared at Keira. “You troublemaker! The years you were gone were so peaceful for us. But the moment you show up, our home is in chaos. From now on,
you’re not allowed to step foot in the Olsen house
anymore!”
Keira clenched her jaw.
When Mrs. Olsen was about to say something, Taylor

held her arm. “Shirley, there should be a line between close relatives and distant ones… Don’t confuse
yourself!”
Mrs. Olsen was stunned, feeling a rush of guilt in her
heart.
Toward Isla, and to Keira.
Keira felt a heavy weight on her chest. She knew what she had to do and was already used to it.
Lowering her eyes, she took a step back. “Ma’am, please take care of your health and don’t worry about
me.”
Then, she turned around and strode away.
Her steps were firm, and her back was straight.
But the moment she stepped out of the door, a tear
rolled down her cheek.
She had never deserved to stand by Mrs. Olsen’s side.
She raised her hand and gently brushed the corner of her eye to wipe away the tear stain.
At that moment, her cell phone rang. It was her uncle, Finley Hill. His voice was weary and panicked. “Niece,

I’ll sell the secret to you for five million. Do you want
it?”
“Yes.”
