Chapter 411: Sei’s Family Reunion
If before all of this, Sei had been told that she had a brother half her age, she would have called whoever told her such a thing an unbelievable liar.
When she still lived at home, Sei recalled that her parents were more like business partners than a couple.
They both had business and household affairs that they attended to with the utmost precision. But they never showed any actual indication that they loved each other.
Not a pet name was shared, not a kiss was given. Sometimes, Sei had difficulty believing that those two had actually laid down to make her. It certainly seemed improbable enough.
With her home experience aside, her father was already in his fifties when she left home. Sei couldn’t picture him with the energy to make a second child.
Her mother was a bit different, though... she would have carried the child if she were convinced to. Regardless of the potential health risks.
If Sei let her delusions take over, then she could imagine her father permitting an outside donor. Maybe he was more open-minded than she initially thought?
Those delusions did not last very long once she stole more glances at her supposed brother’s face. He just looked too much like the man who fathered her.
’Well... maybe mother got the surrogate then. That would make more sense.’
Malachi and the others could obviously hear Sei’s theories running rampant inside her head with perfect clarity.
For now, they just decided to let her have a moment to herself to process things. No matter how delusional she may have sounded.
Sei’s brother finally stopped after leading the group into the building. They were taken all the way up to the top floor.
