Chapter 239
Every once in a while, Charles had wanted to come back to eat food made by Janine.
Janine was cooking and didn’t hear Charles‘ question.
Harvey walked out of his room holding a book and said coldly, “Because there will be
a guest.”
“A guest?” Charles asked in confusion.
Since when did they have guests come to their house? They had just moved to Jipsburg not long ago and had no relatives here.
As for their friends, they would usually meet up outside rather than invite them home.
Could it be that Janine made new friends at work and invited them over?
Harvey made a sour face and took a glance at the kitchen. “It’s Maisy,” he said.
Upon hearing her name, Charles frowned and became gloomy as well. “Her?”
“Mom said Maisy knows she was wrong,” Harvey said with a sneer.
If Maisy knew she was wrong, then pigs could fly. One wouldn’t come to you if they hadn’t something to ask of you. Maisy must have ill intentions.
Charles frowned deeply and asked, “And Mom believed her?”
Then, he looked at the dishes on the table and frowned deeper. “It seems she did.
Okay, then I’ll see what Maisy plans to do.”
Did she really think that she was the only smart one, and everyone else was a fool?
Maisy was definitely up to no good.
“I feel sick at the thought of eating with her,” Harven said, his brows furrowing tightly.
Both Harvey and Charles felt that Janine was too easy to deceive.
They had met Maisy several times before and had seen what kind of person she was. There must be an ulterior motive behind her sudden change in attitude.

Maisy was at the door of the unit downstairs.
It was her first time there. She stared at the rundown community, where the dark unit
building was located. The unit’s door didn’t even have a lock. It was just left wide
open.
Decked out in branded attire, she was completely out of place there.
Someone happened to come downstairs and whistled when he saw her. Maisy was utterly disgusted. The people living there were too uncultured!
She endured her disgust and walked up the stairs in her high heels.
There were seven floors in total. Janine and her family lived on the seventh floor.
The higher up Maisy climbed, the more disgusted she felt.
She would never return to Janine’s family! She absolutely couldn’t live such a hard
life. If she had to live such a hard life, it would be no different from death for her.
However, she would endure it if she wanted to leave Skylar with nowhere to go.
Maisy arrived on the seventh floor and knocked on the door.
No one answered immediately.
Charles and Harvey didn’t want to open the door.
However, after glancing at Janine, who was busy in the kitchen, Charles said
helplessly, “Then, let’s let Mom give up completely.”
“You’re my older brother. You open the door,” Harvey said, looking at the door as if he
were looking at some kind of monster.
He could still vividly remember what had happened at the mall the last time.
Charles raised his eyebrows and went to open the door.
“Brother,” Maisy greeted with a sweet smile the moment she saw Charles.
Charles felt a chill run down his arm, forming goosebumps. “Your brother is Peter.
Don’t call me that,” he said.
Maisy secretly gritted her teeth but maintained her sweet smile. She replied, “He’s

also my brother, but you’re my biological brother.”
