When the Wind is Sweet: The Fairy Tale of Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster-Chapter 920: Lake Reveals the Secret

Of course she was jealous, but she tried to calm herself, smiled, and stepped inside, "Gia!"

When she saw Nathan Xavier, she pretended to be surprised, "Brother, you’re back?"

The man glanced at her, "Mm." His expression was gentle and he didn’t say much.

"Hello, Miss Xavier." Gia was quite good at putting on a face, even as she guarded against her attempts to cozy up.

"Gia, do you like the clothes Mother sent over yesterday?" Rhiannon Xavier approached with a smile, "She said your temperament is really suited for traditional styles! You can pull off a unique look." As she finished speaking, she reached out and linked her arm with Gia’s.

It was as if she and Gia were such good friends, which made Nathan Xavier feel a little surprised deep down.

In fact, Gia was also surprised, but she maintained a smile and didn’t say or do anything inappropriate.

As a man, Nathan Xavier felt redundant seeing the two girls getting along so well, and since he had finished delivering the rabbit meat, he said a few words and then turned to leave.

After her brother left, Rhiannon Xavier released Gia and let her smile fade slightly as well.

She picked up a package of rabbit meat from the table, "Was this sent here for you?" She smiled slightly, looking at her, and said somewhat smugly, "Earlier, Brother asked if I wanted some, but I’m really tired of it. Though it tastes alright, you probably haven’t had such good rabbit meat before. You can try it, and if you like it, you can let me know. I’ll bring some for you next time."

So, this was what Miss Xavier didn’t want?

But... why didn’t it seem that way? It looked more like Young Master Xavier specifically brought it here, just this package.

Gia didn’t mind her boasting, keeping a faint smile and not responding.

After her brother left, Rhiannon didn’t stay long. She pretended to be sincere and said, "You rest well now. I’m going to leave first. I have something to discuss with Brother. We’ll have dinner together and also enjoy the moon."

She acted like she had a great relationship with Nathan Xavier, but Gia didn’t feel any closeness between the two; they seemed so distant that they didn’t even resemble siblings.

After Rhiannon left, Gia walked into the courtyard. The sunset’s afterglow enveloped her, and the garden scenery was beautiful while the evening breeze was gentle.

She looked at a row of houses not far away. The lights were already on inside, but the doors were tightly shut.

Because she had a familiar feeling towards that place, she had recently been observing it secretly. It seemed like no one lived there, but there were maids cleaning, making it an important place.

Even the flowers and plants in the front yard were trimmed every morning.

Rhiannon definitely didn’t live there.

While she was lost in thought, the maid, Lake, came to her side and glanced in the same direction, looking at that row of houses.

"Miss Gia," Lake spoke softly, "Don’t you find it strange that an uninhabited place is given so much attention, cleaned daily?"

"Didn’t you say that Miss Xavier lived there?" She turned around, deliberately acting puzzled as she asked.

Lake sighed lightly, her eyes reflecting some sadness, "The real Miss Xavier got separated from her family when she was young and was never found again."

Hearing these words, Gia felt a heavy thud in her heart!! Her expression changed slightly, the real Miss Xavier?? Lost? As a child? 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

So, was Rhiannon really a fake?

Lake turned her eyes toward her and confessed, "The Miss Xavier we see now is actually a child adopted by the Xavier Family from a neighboring family. The gentleman and madam are kind-hearted, and with their own daughter’s departure, they placed their longing on Miss Xavier. Even the name Rhiannon was given by the lady."

So that’s how it is...
