Jason added with a faint smile, “Long time no see.”
Hearing this, Shermaine narrowed her eyes. Though she’d heard his surname was Jean, , she hadn’t made the connection that this boy could be Jameson’s son. But now, upon closer inspection, she could see the resemblance
He looked innocent enough, but she hated him at first sight
Maybe it was because he tried to take liberties with Danielle while she was asleep, or maybe there were other reasons. Either way, she just couldn’t stand
him.
But why did Jason say that? Had they ever met before?
Shermaine had gone missing at age five and hadn’t returned to the Jean family or even set foot in Basterel in the fourteen years since. Other than a few years in Maple Leaf Ville, she had spent the rest of her time abroad.
So when he said, “Long time no see,” it could only mean they’d met before she was five.
Whether intentional or not, Jason had made a point of saying that
Shermaine stated coolly, “I have only one brother”
Jason shrugged indifferently. “it doesn’t matter. To me, you’ll always be my little sister. After all, they were connected by blood.
Shermaine smiled. “Save that for after you’re officially recognized by the family“,
“I’ll work hard to earn Grandmother’s approval,” Jason said, nodding slightly before turning to leave.
As soon as Jason left, Danielle snapped out of her drowsiness. Who would’ve thought such an innocent–looking guy could be so calculating? Besides, she could tell at a glance that Shermaine really couldn’t stand him.
Shermaine disliked someone, Danielle would naturally stand against them too.
Danielle asked, “Is Jason really your dad Jameson’s illegitimate son?” The Jean family’s drama was all over the place; even if Shermaine didn’t say a word, Danielle already knew quite a bit.
Yes, Shermaine replied.
Danielle asked in surprise, “Wait, he’s even older than you!”
Shermaine nodded, “Grandmother told me my birthday is March 15th.” She’d never known her real birthday growing up, so she’d never celebrated it.
That checked out. Jason’s medical records show his birthdate is in January.
It seemed Jameson really was a scumbag
The illegitimate son was actually two months older than Shermaine.
Danielle cursed, “Your dad is a jerk.”
Shermaine handed over the coffee. “He’s always been like that,” she said. Her mood clearly soured just thinking about them. “Here, I brought you some coffee. I brewed it myself”
Danielle took the co
“Also, remember to always lock your door when sleeping. Someone almost tried something on you just now, you know.”

Danielle pressed her lips, a flicker of disgust crossing her brow. She said, “I’m transiering his case to another doctor
Asnot–nosed brat actually dared to hit on her. Danielle absolutely despised conger relationships, so she’d never go for a younger guy. But serves these young boys keep chasing after her. And now, this one was even Shermaine’s half–brother. It was unbelievable.
Danielle exclaimed, “But seriously, how come you didn’t tell me about your engagement Shermaine would just get engaged to a man like that.
‘If she hadn’t seen it in the news, she never would’ve
Shermaine said frankly, “Joshua and I are just in a lake engagement, a mutually beneficial arrangerent. That was why I didn’t bother telling you.
Danielle teased, “I saw reports saying you two might even tie the knot next June”
“Not necessarily,” Shermaine replied.
Once the thought of breaking off the engagement popped up, it just wouldn’t go away.
The two women chatted over coffee for a while. After finishing his checkup, Joshua took out his phone and called Shermaine
Bradley told him that Shermaine was at the hospital. Though she was really there mainly to visit a friend, he just dropped by to check on her.
Shermaine answered, “Come to Dr. Shelly’s office in Neurosurgery. I’ll wait here. Bring your best results, I need to review them.”
