Ellis frowned, giving Keira a second look.
Why did this woman look somewhat familiar?
She seemed to bear a resemblance to his third uncle...
With this thought in mind, he turned to Isla. "My third uncle mentioned that your mom is an old friend of his, asking me to look after your Olsen family for a while. Surely your family isn't so poor that you haven't even taken equestrian lessons, right? How can there be a sister who doesn't know how to ride horses?"
Isla immediately lowered her head, adopting a look of shame.
Without a word from her, of course, there was a little lackey to speak up for her. "Mr. Olsen, that's not Miss Olsen's biological sister. Her mother is a mistress; that girl is the Olsen family's illegitimate daughter. Of course, she wasn't treated well from her childhood and never learned horseback riding."
This statement displeased Ellis.
