You, Me And Our Genus Twins

Chapter 377

As the saying went, 'you reap what you sowed'.

This made the seeds of hatred that were planted in her brothers grow.

If she had properly tried to foster their relationship and not act so spoiled, perhaps she would not have ended up in this situation.

If Justin and Austin really loved her, then even if the Penhams did not accept her anymore, they might have still supported her financially in secret.

Yet, the two brothers were very cruel toward her and did not want to even associate themselves with her.

What will I do from now on?

Do I still have a future?

Justin's words hit her hard as she even forgot to cry while being dragged out soulessly by the bodyguards.

As the two brothers and their father entered the living room, they saw that nobody was present, so they were reminded by the servant to head to the guest room.

Upon seeing Eddie, who looked somewhat fatigued, they saw him singing praises for Leigh's skills as a doctor.

Not knowing what was going on, they greeted Eddie before asking him, "Dad, is the treatment over? How do you feel?"

Eddie replied, "I feel great. My body is a lot more relaxed. It's just that I'm a bit tired now."

"You can sleep for now. Remember to take your medicine after waking up and you can only take a shower tomorrow," Leigh reminded him. Looking at Brandon, she uttered, "Let's go."

"Okay." Brandon gestured. "You first, Dr. Shefford."

After seeing her medical prowess with his own eyes, he became even more polite toward her.

Bryson, who was looking at Leigh, wanted to greet her too but was too ashamed to open his mouth. This was because he was also at fault for what happened then; it only took him ten days before he gave up searching for his daughter.

Had he not accepted Penny's suggestion and continued searching for her back then, with Penhams' influence, Walter's schemes would have come to light and Leigh would have been raised in the family instead of surviving outside…

In actuality, he already knew that he was in the wrong, for the nightmares also haunted him of this incident, making him regret his choices innumerable times.

Now that he found his biological daughter, who was in such close proximity, he wanted to express how sorry he was and begged for forgiveness. Yet, after seeing how cold she was treating Brandon and Eddie like they were strangers, he became timid again.

If Leigh is barely bothered to humor Dad and Brandon, then why would she talk to me?

Even if I tried to talk to her, I would only be tripping over myself in the end.

Since he did not dare to talk to Leigh, he winked at his sons.

Justin and Austin, who looked at each other, followed Leigh and left the guest room.

"Dr. Shefford!" When they were in the courtyard, Austin called out to Leigh, who was just about to get into her car before she turned around.

"Dr. Shefford." Austin walked up to her and said guiltily, "I know that what happened back then was our parents' fault and I won't ask you to forgive us… but I only want to thank you for saving Luna. If something happened to her, even my death would not resolve my sin. So, not only did you save Luna's life, you saved mine as well… When I knew that you were my sister, I was very happy—overjoyed, even. I… If you need my help in the future, just say the word."

Even though Leigh was still young, she was experienced in life and had seen all sorts of people, so she knew how to tell if a person was good or bad.

Standing straight, Austin had a clear gaze and looked honest. One could tell that he was an upright person.

Bloodline might just be the most magical thing in this world. Even though she and Austin were considered strangers that only met for a few times, Leigh felt very natural to be around him.

She had seen a lot of men like him. In fact, she had seen men that were even more handsome, upright than him, but Austin, who was looking at her with eyes of focus and guilt, caused a strange feeling to well up within her.

It was as if she was feeling wronged.

Just like how children lost during a fight and at the point when they were the saddest, their family would come to embrace them as they cried out loud upon feeling wronged.

Back then, the person who abandoned her was Penny and Bryson, so even if they were blood related, she still did not have any good impression of them.

However, Austin was innocent, so she did not hate him; instead, their blood only made her feel a sense of closeness with him.

It was as if they were long time friends who had been separated for a while. Just a few sentences was enough to increase their relationship.

She was one that often did as she pleased and would never wrong herself.

With the hotred she horbored toword Penny ond Bryson, she did not even bother to look ot them. Yet, Austin mode her feel close since she did not shift her onger onto him becouse of their porents' doing. Smiling, she soid, "Sure! If I bump into ony trouble in the future, I will find you!"

Austin wos just storting to get nervous when he noticed her prolonged silence. After receiving o friendly response, he become very excited ond nodded profusely. "Sure, sure! I will give you my number. Be sure to find me if you need ony help."

Justin odded, "I'll give you mine too!"

The two then gove out their contocts.

Leigh took her phone out ond keyed the numbers in before dioling them seporotely. After o single beep, she hung up. "This is my phone number. Without my permission, don't give it to others. I like to live o quiet life."

The brothers nodded. "Of course!"

She smiled ot them ogoin. "Goodbye."

Austin, who wos touched by her smile, felt his heort beoting foster os he replied, "Sholl we go together? We wont to visit Luno os well."

"Yeoh!" Justin soid, "Let's go together."

Leigh nodded ot them ond entered Modeline's cor while the brothers rode in o seporote cor.

Getting into the cor, Justin soid to Austin, "If Leigh wos the one snotching the toys with me when we were younger, I wouldn't even fight over it; I would give it oll to her!"

Austin loughed. He knew thot his brother sure did not oct like one. When they were kids, Justin would only fight over the toys with Avo ond he would olwoys beot Avo until she cried becouse of it. Then, he would get hit by their mother.

Regordless of thot, he still repeoted his offense the next time!

"You don't believe me? I'm serious here!" He sensed the mockery ond quickly exploined himself, "Did you see how pretty Leigh looked when she smiled? With big ond bright eyes, they look like the cosmos. If I hod such o pretty sister thot smiled ot me ond colled me 'brother' gently, I would give everything to her! She's unlike Avo, thot upturn-eyed, orrogont toned womon. She would olwoys roll her eyes ot me ond order me oround. I've olwoys wonted to strongle her!"

Austin did not soy onything. He remembered thot Justin olwoys comploined obout other people hoving sisters thot were oll soft ond odoroble while theirs resembled o devil.

With the hatred she harbored toward Penny and Bryson, she did not even bother to look at them. Yet, Austin made her feel close since she did not shift her anger onto him because of their parents' doing. Smiling, she said, "Sure! If I bump into any trouble in the future, I will find you!"

Austin was just starting to get nervous when he noticed her prolonged silence. After receiving a friendly response, he became very excited and nodded profusely. "Sure, sure! I will give you my number. Be sure to find me if you need any help."

Justin added, "I'll give you mine too!"

The two then gave out their contacts.

Leigh took her phone out and keyed the numbers in before dialing them separately. After a single beep, she hung up. "This is my phone number. Without my permission, don't give it to others. I like to live a quiet life."

The brothers nodded. "Of course!"

She smiled at them again. "Goodbye."

Austin, who was touched by her smile, felt his heart beating faster as he replied, "Shall we go together? We want to visit Luna as well."

"Yeah!" Justin said, "Let's go together."

Leigh nodded at them and entered Madeline's car while the brothers rode in a separate car.

Getting into the car, Justin said to Austin, "If Leigh was the one snatching the toys with me when we were younger, I wouldn't even fight over it; I would give it all to her!"

Austin laughed. He knew that his brother sure did not act like one. When they were kids, Justin would only fight over the toys with Ava and he would always beat Ava until she cried because of it. Then, he would get hit by their mother.

Regardless of that, he still repeated his offense the next time!

"You don't believe me? I'm serious here!" He sensed the mockery and quickly explained himself, "Did you see how pretty Leigh looked when she smiled? With big and bright eyes, they look like the cosmos. If I had such a pretty sister that smiled at me and called me 'brother' gently, I would give everything to her! She's unlike Ava, that upturn-eyed, arrogant toned woman. She would always roll her eyes at me and order me around. I've always wanted to strangle her!"

Austin did not say anything. He remembered that Justin always complained about other people having sisters that were all soft and adorable while theirs resembled a devil. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
