Chapter 416
Kate was stunned, with tears still hovering at the brink of falling, she was suddenly petrified.
She swallowed and then looked toward James.
James immediately nodded. “Didn’t I tell you yesterday that Uncle Olsen has a daughter? It’s her, my little
sister!”
Kate was dumbfounded.
She became completely petrified.
Then, she looked again at Keira and suddenly blurted out, “That’s impossible. I don’t believe you!”
James grew anxious and was about to explain further when he heard Kate saying, “How can such a robust man like you have a sister who is so devastatingly beautiful? She’s so stunning that she looks like she
comes from another world!”
James was speechless.
Keira didn’t know what to say.

Keira was slightly taken aback, then noticed Kate
sneaking a peep at her, her lively eyes showing a hint of slyness and appeasement, and Keira immediately understood.
Kate was trying to make up for her behavior just now.
Keira couldn’t help but laugh. “I really am his sister.”
Kate said, “Then there must have been a genetic
mutation in James.”
She promptly put away her whip and rushed over to Keira, holding Keira’s arm. “Keera, right? Just now, I felt threatened because you’re so beautiful. You won’t be mad at me, will you?”
There was nothing to be mad about!
Moreover, Kate had been very measured in her actions earlier while in a fit of anger, knowing Keira was an Outer Sect Disciple, and she had let a lot of things slide. Even when Jackson was scolding Keira, Kate had
taken Keira’s side, saying something about it took two
to tango,
With her current playful and cute demeanor, Keira found it impossible to feel offended!
O
She smiled and said, “Sister-in-law, nice to meet you.”
The term “sister-in-law” brought a blush to Kate’s cheeks. She shyly turned her head, then felt around her waist, and finally pulled out a dagger and handed it to Keira. “Sister, it’s the first time we met; this is a gift for you!”
Keira accepted the dagger. “Thank you.”
James couldn’t help but cry out, “Kate, isn’t that the dagger Master gave you? It’s extremely sharp! I’ve been envious of it for years, and you wouldn’t give it to me, but you gave it to my sister!”
Kate glared at him. “Your robust physique suits a club just fine. Keera looks so delicate, and a dagger for self-defense suits her perfectly. Why are you competing with her?”
James said in a sulk, “…Alright.”
The three of them opened up a conversation when suddenly, they heard Jackson exclaim, “Keera, you, you’re the daughter that Uncle Olsen acknowledged and took home yesterday?”
The family reunion the day before wasn’t grand, having
only invited relatives from the Olgan family and
hadn’t been heavily publicized.
However, Lewis’s betrothal gifts and the long speech Tom gave at the reunion had already become the talk of the town in Clance.
Jackson had come to the Freeman Sect early in the morning intending to give Keera trouble, so he hadn’t heard who the daughter was, only knowing that such a person existed.
It was only upon hearing their conversation that he became aware of it.
He hadn’t expected this woman to be Uncle Olsen’s daughter!
No wonder she dared to barge into their home and h
Austin!
Austin was the third son of the Direct Lineage of the Gill family and the favorite youngest son of the Family
Head’s wife!!!
Jackson started to panic.
Upon hearing this, James immediately looked at him, “That’s right, remember this, Keera is the eldest legitimate daughter of our Olsen family. If you dare to
bully her again, just you wait!”
After that, he grabbed Kate’s hand. “Kate, let’s go find the Sect Leader. He agreed to take my little sister as a nominal disciple!”
Kate’s eyes shone with excitement. “That means she’ll be my junior sister then! Keera, let’s go!”
Kate took Keira’s hand.
Seeing this, James couldn’t help feeling a bit jealous. “Hey, your fiancé is right here!”
“Go away. You big, rough, stinky man. How can you compare to a pretty girl?!”
Kate leaned on Keira.
If it weren’t for the fact that Kate had fought desperately for James just a moment ago, Keira might have suspected that Kate didn’t like James at all.
Looking at James, however, it seemed he was used to
1.
He even scratched his head and explained, “Kate likes pretty girls.”
He didn’t mean Kate was sexually attracted to women.
It was merely an appreciation of beauty.
Keira expressed her understanding, and Kate sighed. “Ever since I was little, I’ve been surrounded by men. Practicing martial arts every day made them so tough and rigid, so I like the sweet fragrance of girls.”
After that, she added, “Keera, you’re so soft. I really like you.”
Then she pinched Keira’s arm.
Keira didn’t know what to say.
James chimed in. “That’s because Keera doesn’t practice martial arts often. If she practiced more, her muscles would become harder. You don’t believe me? When our senior sister comes, try pinching her
arm.”
Kate immediately pursed her lips. “I still like Keera more; she’s definitely sweeter. I’m sure I’ll like her
more.”
James was dumbfounded.
He got anxious. “Kate, although Keera is my sister, and I agree with you, the senior sister is sacred and untouchable! You don’t need to say such things aloud!”
Kate huffed and turned to Keira. “Keera. don’t listen to
him. He’s a huge fan of our senior sister, bringing her up every day. If you didn’t know better, you’d think he
has a crush on her!”
James flashed a grin. “If I didn’t have you, it might indeed be possible, but here you are. So now, my admiration for the senior sister can only be pure novelbin
admiration.”
Kate said, “Oh my, that’s really too bad, isn’t it? Did I ruin your perfect match?”
James immediately waved his hands. “Not at all, not at
all. Our senior sister is sacred and must not be
disrespected. Haven’t I just told you? Don’t joke about this anymore!”
Kate pouted but stopped joking. She simply said, “Alright, alright, I get it. I also greatly admire the senio sister, okay?”
Keira was amazed by the way the two interacted.
James might seem like a simpleton who listened to everything Kate said, but every time he said something, Kate respected it.
For example, she would listen to him regarding
principles like not joking about the senior sister.
How interesting.
As they talked, they arrived at the small courtyard where Chris Freeman, Kate’s father, lived. He was also James’s Master and the Sect Leader’s second brother.
Chris was second in rank in the Freeman family, second when practicing martial arts, second in establishing his own Sect, and even had a disciple who was the second senior brother of the Freeman Sect.
His life seemed destined to be associated with the
number two.
He was waiting for them in the room.
Today, to show his welcome for his new disciple, he had put on a set of new practice clothes; a white, sho martial arts jacket tucked neatly into his waistband, making him look very tidy and smart.
As they entered, his gaze fell on Keira, and then he paused slightly.
