Ryan Walker sat down on the small coffee table next to him. "Do you know the reason? The reason is that Mr. Steele adopted a daughter, and she is unhappy and jealous!"
He sighed, "Tell me, she is about to die, why is she still so petty? Someone can fulfill her filial duty on her behalf and bring happiness to the Xi family, isn't that good?"
As he spoke, he suddenly felt like a thorn in his back.
When he looked up, he met his cousin's dark eyes, and felt a chill on his back for some reason, "... Cousin?"
"Get up, you're sitting in the wrong seat." After a moment, the pair of eyes as black as ink moved away indifferently.
"Ah? Oh!" Ryan Walker scratched his head, then quickly stood up and squatted aside.
Just now, I almost had the illusion that there was murderous intent in my cousin's eyes.
It is obvious that my cousin is a person who does not care about anything. At such a young age, he is as cold and aloof as a fairy in the Guanghan Palace. Even Chang'e is not as cold-hearted as him.
Alexander Chase stood up, holding a book in his hand. A breeze blew, and the young man stood tall and straight, with his clothes fluttering in the wind.
He glanced sideways, his expression indifferent: "Asking about others and talking about their faults, is this your upbringing?"
Ryan Walker felt a little wronged. "I didn't say anything! Besides, what Evelyn Steele did was wrong. She was too narrow-minded. No wonder everyone called her a short-lived ghost..."
"When did you become so mean?" Alexander Chase lowered his eyes and looked at him. His tone was very calm, but it carried an inexplicable sense of oppression.
"You are a guest at someone else's house and you are rude to the host. You deserve to be kicked out."
Ryan Walker met his eyes, was startled, and immediately fell silent.
It seemed like he said something wrong and his cousin was really angry... Woo, he was scared!
"I, I was wrong!" Ryan Walker apologized quickly, "I won't say that again."
Alexander Chase then looked away and turned away: "Besides, she won't die young - she will live longer than anyone else."
The tall and slender figure has disappeared, and Ryan Walker stands there with a head full of question marks.
The kid has a lot of questions that he can't figure out!

Evelyn Steele fell asleep, and in her dream, there were still chaotic figures.
When she woke up, everything was quiet and it was almost dawn. She went to the terrace to get some fresh air, then put on a mask and went to the lake for morning exercise.
Her body couldn't take it anymore, so she didn't dare run and could only walk.
At this point, this is a villa area and there are usually no people here.
But this morning, there was someone jogging by the lake. He had long legs and feet, a slender body, and his running movements were full of power and beauty.
Evelyn Steele squinted at it with interest, and her mood finally improved a little.
Everything is clear and life is lovely. There is no need for her to be decadent for a Lila Carter.
Evelyn Steele turned back halfway through her walk and just in time saw the young man running around the lake and walking towards the villa next door.
Their eyes met, and Evelyn Steele smiled politely: "Hello."
The other party nodded slightly, his eyes calm and gentle: "Hello."
"Evelyn Steele!" Someone hurriedly ran out of the yard, and Evelyn Steele turned and went straight into the yard of her villa.
Richard Steele and Matthew Steele both woke up. They ran out in their pajamas and looked at Evelyn Steele with excited expressions.
Evelyn Steele greeted with a smile, "Dad, brother, I'm going to go upstairs to take a shower, and then we'll have breakfast together."
When Evelyn Steele came downstairs, the father and son had already washed up. Seeing the rash on Evelyn Steele's face, Richard Steele exclaimed: "Evelyn, what happened to you..."
"Adverse reactions to new drugs." Evelyn Steele said calmly.
While having breakfast, the expressions of the father and son became heavier, and Richard Steele's eyes once again showed that painful and sad expression.
After breakfast, he made a special appointment with the family doctor to examine Evelyn Steele and asked about the rash.
"The rash is nothing serious. It will disappear automatically after a period of time after stopping the medication. Miss, please be careful not to touch it to avoid leaving scars."
But stopping the medication is impossible. At this stage, Evelyn Steele has to take medicine every day to temporarily control her condition.
Richard Steele stared at Evelyn Steele's rash-covered, horrible-looking face for a moment.
"May I come in, please?" There was a knock on the door, and Lila Carter's voice sounded at the same time.
After she came in, she took the initiative to greet everyone, and then took the initiative to apologize to Evelyn Steele: "Sister Evelyn, I'm sorry, I made you unhappy yesterday..."
She was sensible and polite. Richard Steele was very satisfied with her and pulled her to show Evelyn Steele, "Evelyn, look, Lila looks like your sister, doesn't she? Your eyebrows and eyes are very similar!"
Evelyn Steele raised her eyes and looked at Lila Carter calmly.
In fact, Lila Carter is very similar to her in terms of features, at least 60% similar.
It's just that Lila Carter looks more lively and bright, while Evelyn Steele is calm, gentle and peaceful, and has a gentle, powerful and calming power.
Evelyn Steele smiled: "Not so much now."
Her face was covered in red rashes and she was no longer the same as before.
Lila Carter looked very polite. When she saw the rash on Evelyn Steele's face, she pretended not to notice it. "Evelyn will get better soon! Mr. Steele brought me back because he wanted me to donate bone marrow to treat Evelyn's illness..."
She spoke excitedly, as if donating bone marrow could immediately cure Evelyn Steele's illness.
"Wait." Evelyn Steele suddenly turned around and asked Richard Steele, "Dad, you went to the F Institute to buy the single cell injection drug. Isn't it our turn now? Where is the drug?"
Richard Steele was stunned and silent.
Lila Carter lowered her head involuntarily.
Evelyn Steele's eyes were dazed for a moment, and then she heard Richard Steele's hoarse voice: "The medicine has been given to Lila's mother."
The anti-cancer drug developed by the F Institute is priced at 1.8 million per injection, but it is still in short supply and people have to wait in line for many years.
Evelyn Steele waited for three years, and in the end, Richard Steele gave it to Lila Carter's mother?
In the room, it was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, and everyone was in shock.
In particular, everyone knows how long Matthew Steele and his family doctors, Dr. Morgan and Evelyn Steele, have been waiting for this dose of medicine.
"Dad!" Matthew Steele couldn't help but raise his voice, "Why did you give the medicine to someone else? What about my sister?"
This is life-saving medicine! There is no real possibility of death!
Lila Carter looked pale and at a loss at what to do, while Richard Steele was so ashamed that he could hardly raise his head.
"The situation was urgent at the time. Lila's mother also had cancer and needed life-saving medicine. Lila came to me for help, but I couldn't do anything because she was the widow of the Chen family after all..."
Dr. Morgan frowned as he listened. What a mess! When did Richard Steele become so saintly? He would just give away his daughter's life-saving medicine just because someone asked for it?
Richard Steele seemed to feel better after he finished speaking. He looked up at Evelyn Steele and said, "Evelyn, Dad is sorry for you..."
