In the restaurant, a family was getting ready to have a meal.
Lindsey looked around but didn’t see her other brother. She habitually asked, “Is Rodney not coming back for dinner tonight?”
She had two half–brothers.
One with a business genius inherited the Arnold family business, while one with a talent for singing became a singer. They are Rodney and Darnell, respectively.
“No need to wait for him.” their father, Kolton Arnold, walked in sternly and said, “There’s some business at the company that he needs to take care of. Let’s eat first.”
Because the company’s affairs had started to be handed over to the eldest son, he was able to rarely come home for a meal. Madam Arnold, Shannon Benson, was so happy that she personally cooked a table full of dishes.
“Mom, you’re so biased.” Darnell pouted and coaxed, “As soon as my dad and sister came back, you made so many dishes. I never see you cooking in person at home.”
As soon as the words fell, Lindsey knocked on his head and scolded him in the tone of an elder sister: “Do you usually have time to come home for meals? Don’t think I don’t know when I’m abroad. Shannon told me that you often pass by the door without coming back. It’s already good enough for you to have a meal.”
“Yeah, you little troublemaker,” Shannon handed out the soup, smiling gently. “If it weren’t for your sister bringing you back, you would probably

“Eat, eat, chat while eating.”
The siblings‘ joke came to an end.

In just three years, she regained a home, received the fatherly love that had been missing for many years, and Shannon treated her as his own daughter, with her two brothers also caring for her.
Her mother should have rested if she had known.
At the dinner table, the family was harmonious and happy.
Halfway through eating, Shannon said, “Lindsey, tomorrow is your birthday. Your dad and I are planning to throw a grand birthday party for you at home.”
Lindsey suddenly looked up and gazed at them.
Kolton put a piece of meat in her bowl and said, “Yes, you have been studying abroad for the past two years. We haven’t properly introduced you to the outside world yet. This is a good opportunity for you to get to know some young talents.”
The last sentence, perhaps, was the real purpose.
Lindsey blushed and said, “Dad, I don’t have any plans to get married right now.”
“I didn’t say I wanted you to get married.” She was about to refuse, but Kolton said, “Just think of it as meeting someone your own age, it will also be helpful for your future career. Besides, my daughter Kolton is so beautiful, you have to let dad show off a bit.”
The words had come to this point, and she couldn’t refuse anymore.

This was in Los Angeles, even if she appeared in public, no one would probably recognize Lena. The worries in her heart lessened a bit at the thought of this.
But the news still made its way to New York.
After returning from the club, Kevin immediately sent someone to investigate Lindsey, and the next day there was news.
“Did you say she was recognized by the Arnold family?”
“Yes, Kolton originally had only two sons, but three years ago, a daughter suddenly appeared, leading people in the circle to speculate whether she might be his illegitimate child.”
“Also, I just found out that today is Lindsey’s birthday. The Arnold family is hosting a grand birthday banquet to officially introduce her to the outside world.”
Three years ago? Another birthday party?!
Lena’s birthday is also today. If we say her resemblance to the Arnold family is a coincidence, the timing of her being recognized as part of the Arnold family and her birthday date coincides so perfectly.
All of this couldn’t have been just a coincidence.
She was Lena!!
Kevin stood up excitedly and ordered, “Book me a ticket to Los Angeles immediately.” Then he picked up his coat and walked out of the study.
In the living room, Cecilia was restless. When she saw him getting ready to leave, she hurriedly approached and stopped him: “Kevin, what’s going on? Where are you going at this hour?”
Kevin suddenly remembered her after a while.

He turned around and looked at Cecilia, with no more tenderness in his eyes, and said coldly, “We’re done, you need to move out of the villa today.”
He used to be very passionate, but now he is
very indifferent.
Cecilia couldn’t accept the gap and held his hand tightly, asking, “Why?”
“There’s no reason, I’m just tired of it. With that, the person left without any hesitation.”
