Chapter 774 Lovely Braid

Yumi regarded Natalie’s warmth for a moment before removing the jade key from her neck meekly. “Here you go.”

Natalie solemnly accepted the jade key, helped Yumi into a clean pair of skirts, and dried her hair before concluding

the ritual by putting on a little blue headband that held her hair neatly of her brow.

The quadruplets were already standing in wait outside the bathroom when Natalie emerged with Yumi.

Except for Franklin, who remained a little unapproachable, the other three surrounded her enthusiastically. “Are you

hungry, Yumi? Let’s have dinner together! Our chef makes delicious food!”

Yumi felt Natalie’s warm hospitality shining through her children. As a result, the nervousness that had

accompanied her from the moment she first arrived began to be gradually replaced by a sense of complacent

security. She beamed and accepted their offer to dine gratefully.

As one, The five children thundered down the stairs to the dining table in boisterous anticipation for a hearty dinner.

Natalie, on the other hand, slipped away to the bedroom and carefully placed the jade keys entrusted to her into

the safe.

The reason why she wanted to take the jade key away was that, on the one hand, Yumi may damage the precious

jade key. More importantly, Natalie was worried that the jade key would bring danger to Yumi. I’m sure there are

people out there who are aware of the special meaning that the key might hold. Such a valuable artifact will

undoubtedly drive people with ulterior motives to obtain it with every means necessary. In addition, the recent

turmoil in Loang makes this coincidence even more unsettling. This complication does not change the commitment

I have made to raise Yumi and keep her safe. I will return it to her when she is in need of it.

After a double-check on her safe to placate her sense of foreboding, Natalie went downstairs to join her children for

dinner.

Five ravenous children seated around the slightly cramped table made for a lively scene.

Instead of being irritable at the noise, Natalie savored the commotion by watching her own children satiate their

curiosity with the newcomer.

To her surprise and pride, Natalie noticed that her own four must have come to a private agreement against asking

sensitive questions about Yumi’s past. Their efforts seemed to have paid off as Yumi appeared very relaxed, even

more so after having a larger dinner than the other four.

Natalie retired to the study at the conclusion of one of the best dinners she had ever been a part of.

As per their custom, the four children retired to the playroom they shared.

Sophia wanted to review medical books while Clayton was working on learning a new language.

On the other hand, Xavian delved into system management.

Once the three little ones were focused, they took no further notice of their surroundings.

Yumi did not know how to engage with them, so she got up and went into the corridor. and when she looked up, she

saw the quiet night outside the window.

In the vastness of the dark sky above, there seemed to be one or two stars emitting a bright and dazzling light.

“I met a very nice person, Mommy, Yumi stood on tiptoe, wanting to see the stars more clearly.

A boy’s voice rang out. “What are you sneaking around for?”

Yumi was startled. She turned her head and found Franklin beside her. “Sneaky? That’s not very nice, is it? Why

would you say that to me?”

“My mother is a very good person, as are my younger siblings.” Franklin put one hand in his pocket and warned

with his eyebrows raised. “They like you very much. Don’t hurt them.”

Yumi stood her ground and met Franklin’s gaze. “I know,” she said stubbornly, “you don’t need to remind me.”

“I’m glad I made myself clear.” Franklin’s gaze turned sharper. “I’ll be watching you. Don’t let me catch your little

braid where it’s not supposed to be! Otherwise, I will drive you out of this house!”

After speaking, Franklin turned around and left.

Biting her lip, Yumi looked back at the night sky and muttered to herself.

“Should I tell them that I’m a jinx, Mommy? Daddy doesn’t want me and you are too far away from me. Even

Shannon shed a lot of blood to save me!”

“I-I don’t want them to get hurt,” she continued sadly, “I really like this family. Watch over them from the skies, will

you?”
