Chapter 83 Just focus on doing good, regardless of the future.
Mary tilted her head thoughtfully. "Why does that sound familiar?"
Susan suddenly exclaimed, "Lori, isn't the Undying Eye that piece of jewelry you spent millions on a while back?"
Lori nodded absentmindedly. "Yes, I later gave it to Elbert."
Mary was puzzled. "You gave it to Elbert, so why is it with Paul today? And then he threw it to you?"
"No way."Susan suddenly thought of something, her mouth agape as if struck by lightning. "Mary, are you dumb!"
Lori's expression was complex. She looked up, staring blankly at the antique piano standing alone under the lights.
"Susan, you're right," Lori added.
Mary was still confused. "Right about what?"
"Elbert is Paul!" Lori and Susan said simultaneously!
When these words were spoken, the three daughters of the Brown Family felt the world spinning. Everything seemed so unreal, so bizarre!
"Oh my God, that's impossible!" Mary couldn't believe it, shouting out in agitation!
But Lori quickly covered her mouth and spoke the truth.
"Elbert never showed his face the whole time. He told me the truth through the Undying Eye. He doesn't want anyone to know his identity!" Lori whispered to Mary, her eyes glistening with tears. If she had to describe her current feeling, it was more of being moved than shocked!
Elbert entered the Brown Family as a lifesaver, always very low-key, smiling faintly even in the face of injustice. But his faint smile, his lack of rebuttal, was not because he was incapable. But because he was too strong! He just wanted to do everything quietly!
For days, Elbert's strength continually left everyone in disbelief—as powerful as a myth! And today, Elbert proved himself again.
Now in Lori's mind, he was too exceptional! He turned out to be the legendary singer Paul! He wasn't moved by money, nor did he bow to any power! He acted from his heart, using his strength to help the weak and spread goodwill!
Lori's shock was overwhelming. From childhood to adulthood, she had never looked up to anyone. But Elbert's actions made her completely convinced, with nothing more to say!
"Do you know why we always misunderstood Elbert before?" Lori's voice trembled.
"Why?" The two younger girls, too, were lost in the shock, their eyes vacant.
"Because compared to him, we are not even on the same level! He is powerful, he is excellent, he is almost omnipotent! His state of mind is truly calm, transcendent, and selfless!"
Indeed. The two younger girls were also deep in thought! They had tasted Elbert's delicious cooking, which was simply otherworldly food! It was also Elbert who saved them from overwhelming dominance in the underground casino! In archery, equestrian, and shooting, Elbert left everyone speechless!
Susan murmured, "My live stream is now the most popular because he glanced at me!"
Lori smiled bitterly. "Now I believe you when you said Elbert gambled hundreds of millions in the underground casino!"
Mary clutched her phone tightly, her screensaver still a screenshot of the legendary singer Paul!
Mary said, "The legendary singer Paul was living among us. We called him someone who only relied on women. That five million before, we even suspected him of scheming."
"Susan, do you think Elbert will forgive us for what we did before?" Mary asked, her voice trembling.
Susan bit her lip. "I don't think it's about forgiveness because he probably didn't even care about us! In his eyes, we are just two immature girls! Elbert will probably never like us."
Tears streamed down the faces of the two younger girls. They were filled with regret, sadness, and a deep sense of inferiority!
Unconsciously, they had already merged the voice as heavenly as an angel's and the captivating figure of Paul with Elbert!
'Yes. Elbert had always been so exceptional. He was so handsome. He had never done anything to hurt us. He never ignored our requests.'
Two voices inexplicably emerged in Mary and Susan's minds.
"I stay in the Brown Family just to have a clear conscience!"
"Everyone harbors immense strength in their hearts. Do everything to the best of your ability and have a clear conscience!"
One was from Elbert, and the other was from Paul.
'How similar they were!' Lori exclaimed inwardly.
Suddenly, Mary and Susan shouted simultaneously, "Lori, we need to go home!"
Lori was stunned. "Why?"
"We need to arrange his stuff. We need to accommodate him in the room on the 5th floor, in the biggest suite!"
Watching the two younger girls rush out in a hurry, Lori sighed softly, tightly gripping the 'Undying Eye' in her hand. Elbert returned it. What did that mean? Maybe it was to encourage Lori to shine and radiate like the Undying Eye.
But in Lori's eyes, it probably meant he didn't want too much association with the Brown Family or with her! After all, a person of Elbert's level wouldn't be confined to the small Brown Family.
As for the future, Lori dared not hope that Elbert would accompany her again! Because she thought Elbert had done enough! The Brown Family owed Elbert enough as well!
"Mary, Susan, even if you accommodate him in the best room, so what? Will Elbert come back?" Lori smiled bitterly, looking up at the chaotic scene. Many people were looking downstairs, trying to find Paul, but to no avail. Many others were already concerned about the children.
Lori exhaled gently; there were still many things waiting for her to do here! Paul, or Elbert's words, kept echoing in her ears.
"Just follow your heart, regardless of the future!"
