Pampered By Power: The True Heiress Returns

Chapter 263

Previously, they were only aware of Elysia acknowledging the Jackson couple as her godparents, unaware that

she had a godbrother as well.

Upon glimpsing the tfrom the Jackson family together just now, they harbored a faint suspicion but clung to a

slim hope, praying that no connection existed between Elysia and Logan.

However, their hopes were dashed. Not only Logan was connected, but also Elysia regarded him as her brother.

They weren't pleased with this revelation. The four felt their status threatened and directed unfriendly glares at

Logan.

Logan, sensing the pressure from across the room, was at a loss for how to respond.

Replaying the conversation in his mind, Logan realized their expressions had shifted when Elysia mentioned

“Godbrother Now, he understood the anxiety his parents had felt before arriving at the Evans residence. He was

experiencing it firsthand.

He comprehended that Elysia was truly related to them, while he merely bore the title of “Godbrother. Even if it

were him, he wouldn't appreciate it. He harbored the hope that the four brothers would embrace him.

Noticing the tension, Elysia turned her head slightly to glance at Logan, and then at the four brothers sitting

opposite him.

Caught up in bridging the gap between the elders, she had overlooked the need to foster a connection between

her brothers and Logan. With this realization, she cleared her throat and looked at Fabian and his three brothers.

With a playful tone, she said, “Brothers, when | was with the Rosewood family, Logan took good care of me. He's

like a brother to me, just like you.”

Upon hearing this, Fabian and the others raised their eyebrows slightly and looked at Logan with a discerning

gaze. They couldn’t miss the implication behind her words: she wanted them to get along. Whatever Elysia said,

they would heed

Fabian’s previously stern face finally softened into a smile. Folding his hands, he looked at Logan and said,

“Thanks for taking care of Elysia earlier.”

With the eldest brother's words, the others also relaxed. Javier's enchanting eyes now held a hint of a smile,

easing the tense atmosphere.

Yehoshua's expression remained unreadable, but it was evident that his mood had improved slightly.

Only Holden continued to pout defiantly, eyeing Logan in front of him who seemed to be around the sage.

Holden was afraid that Elysia ended up liking Logan more than him.

Seeing the effect of her words, Elysia was satisfied, her gaze sweeping over the four. But when she looked at

Holden, she noticed his stern face. She reached out and gently poked him, leaning in to whisper, “Con,

Holden. Give us a smile.”

However, Holden didn’t respond to her words. Instead, he quietly asked, “Elysia, am | about the sage as

him?”

Elysia turned her gaze to Logan and softly replied, “He's younger than you.”

Upon hearing this, Holden finally managed a smile. Knowing Logan was younger made him feel better.

Elysia sat up straight in her seat, relieved. A smile was better than a frown, after all. But speaking of age, it

reminded her of something.

Before reuniting with the Evans residence, Logan had been her only brother, so she could call him whatever she

pleased. But now that she was back, calling Logan “bro” might upset the other brothers. So she pondered

changing it to something more comfortable.

With this in mind, she gazed at Logan and proposed, “Logan, you're younger than Holden. Now you have big

brothers.”

Before Logan could respond, Edward chuckled and said, “So | have five soms now

Olive burst into laughs.

Seeing both Olive and Edward nod in agreement, Logan quickly concurred, “That is new to me?

Just as he finished speaking, a servant entered and respectfully reported to Edward, “Mr. Evans, Vincent has

arrived”

“Vincent?” Olive raised an eyebrow, “He's early today, he’s usually barely on time. That old schemer. Go ahead

and invite him in. I'm curious to see what he’s up to today”

“Yes, ma'am,” the servant replied before exiting. Olive’s gaze swept over Edward. She had been with this family

for so many years that any change couldn't escape her sharp eyes. But now was not the tto dwell on such

matters.

When the servant led Vincent in, Faelan was by his side, accompanied by Zane.

Upon seeing Zane, Fabian’s expression grew serious. Ever since he discovered Elysia’s close connection to Zane,

he had been anxious and unable to rest easy,

Although Zane was a genius in the business world, he was renowned for his ruthlessness,

Fabian didn’t want Elysia to get hurt. Fabian hoped she would end up with an ordinary person, someone who

didn’t need an impressive background but could wholeheartedly care for her.

Now, Fabian only had this one sister left. If possible, he hoped she could always stay at the Evans residence,

where he could protect her. Regardless of these considerations, Zane was indeed quite older.

Their eyes met, and Zane sensed Fabian’s hostility towards him, clearly because of Elysia. It seemed Fabian

wasn't satisfied with Zane. But this time, Zane wouldn't back down, unless Elysia didn’t want him anymore.

Olive looked at Vincent, her face beaming with smiles. “Vincent, you usually don’t care for these events, and it's

unusual for you to be on time. Why are you so early today?”

“Mrs. Evans, it depends on who's hosting. For an event organized by the Evans family, | have to show up early to

show respect,” Vincent replied.

Despite Vincent's words, Olive didn’t believe him at all. Last year, on her significant birthday, Vincent barely

made it on time. And now he was talking about respect and being early today.

No one was buying it. Olive was sure Vincent had something on his mind. But she wasn’t going to call him out on

If he wanted to say something, he would say it without her prompting. If he didn’t want to, even if she pressed

hard, she wouldn't get anything out of him.

Elysia sat beside Olive, observing the exchange between the two, completely detaching herself with no intention

of joining the conversation.

Vincent's gaze turned to Elysia, raising an eyebrow with a hint of dissatisfaction in his voice. “Elysia, you see

your mentor and
