An Innocent Girl
Yvette frowned. She was puzzled. “Why not?”
Even if Kirsi was Lum1's sister, it should not affect Kirsi’s right to join her family’s business.
Kirsi's face darkened slightly, and her smile was not as bright as before.
Julie nudged Yvette’s arm and frowned slightly.
Yvette still did not understand.
Kirsi smiled. “It's okay. People only ask because they don’t know. It’s nota secret anyway.”
Julie felt a little heartbroken.
Kirsi’s tone was calm.
“My mother now isn't my biological mother. She’s Lumi's biological mother. I'm an illegitimate child and
only joined the Makinen family later in life.”
The noise in the hall also seemed to quiet down for a moment.
Kirsi so calmly spoke about her personal life as if she did not care at all. But if she really did not care,
how could no one have known about it?
Nicole and Yvette looked at each other. Yvette somewhat regretted blurting out the question.
“I'm sorry, Kirsi. I really didn’t know about this and didn’t mean to hurt you.” Kirsi smiled and looked at
Yvette.
“I know.”
Julie coughed.
“Well, it doesn’t matter. Everyone has their own path and their own strengths. Let the past be in the
past.”
Nicole nodded. “Yeah. I see that Lumi isn't so keen on the company either. It’s a good thing that you
don't need to bear this kind of pressure.”
It would be torture to watch one’s family business go bankrupt in their own hands.
Kirsi’s path was much simpler and brighter than Lumi's.
Yvette thought about it.
“Do you get along with Lumi? We didn’t get to go to her wedding before, but she still asked us to pay
up anyway.”
Kirsi laughed. “I have a good relationship with my sister. She’s an innocent girl. If not for her, I wouldn’t
have had it easy with the Makinen family. She just wanted the money for her startup. She lost too much
money before she got married, so the family limited her spending.”
It was quite rare for half-sisters to get along peacefully in a family like this. Yvette laughed. “She failed
in everything she did. We'd have to avoid her in future investments.”
“The good thing is that Samuel Lindstrom is looking after her now, so she dialed it back a little.”
Kirsi could not help but laugh.
