Chapter 95
Blake snapped out of his reverie and lazily glanced at her. “Just talk. Stop crying. People might actually think someone’s bullying you,”
Freya had feared Blake since childhood, not just because of his calculating nature, but also because he was always ice cold and completely unapproachable.
Freya’s emotions got the better of her. She really burst into tears. “I’m sorry, Blake. I didn’t mean to
Freya wiped away her tears, bit her lip, and struggled to compose herself, forcing back any further sobs.
Blake took the initiative to introduce himself. “Skylar, let’s make this official. I’m your big brother, Blake Lambert.”
Skylar said, “I’m Skylar Lambert.”

Blake studied Skylar, whose features perfectly blended their parents‘ best traits. She was his own sister, and he found himself growing fonder with every glance.
“I’ve brought back some gifts for you all.” Blake signaled to his assistant to bring out
The assistant handed Freya her gift first, and her eyes instantly lit up with anticipation.
Blake never failed to bring gifts from his business trips, one for each family member.
A few days ago, Freya heard the gossip that a billionaire overseas had just dropped tens of millions at an auction for a ruby necklace.
Blake had been there, so Freya immediately guessed he was the one who’d won that ruby necklace.
Freya’s eyes gleamed with greedy anticipation as she impatiently tore open the box in her hands.
Before joy could even register, her face crumpled.
Freya snatched up the utterly ordinary bracelet from the box, staring at it in disbelief.
“How could it be just a bracelet?” Freya blurted out in disbelief.
“Ms. Freya Lambert, Mr. Lambert specifically chose this bracelet for you,” the assistant said, puzzled by her displeasure at the gift.
The assistant thought, ‘Mr. Lambert always had me prepare bracelets for her in previous years. And Freya was always so happy. So why is she disappointed this time?
‘Could it be that she heard some rumors, and that’s why she’s so disappointed when she sees the bracelet?‘
The assistant sighed inwardly, ‘The ruby necklace was personally designated by Mr. Lambert för Ms. Skylar Lambert. Even if I want to give it to Freya, I have no authority to change that!‘
He took out the ruby necklace again and handed it to Skylar.
Skylar opened the box and immediately recognized it. It was that ruby necklace that had gone viral online just days before.
Jewels and other such things were just material possessions to her. She simply wasn’t interested.
It was only because it was a gift from family that she found it meaningful. She curled her lips into a smile and said, “Thank you, Blake.”
Seeing her delight, Blake smiled warmly, “As long as you like it.”
Freya stared at Blake and Skylar, her fingers tightening around the bracelet in her hand until her knuckles turned white.

Chapter 95
Blake didn’t even try to hide it. His blatant favoritism knew no bounds.
Year after year, all she got were bracelets. But as soon as Skylar came back, she got a ruby necklace worth millions, once worn by royalty.
Freya seethed with jealousy, her eyes burning with pure hatred. ‘If Blake doesn’t treat me like a sister, he shouldn’t expect me to treat him as a brother either,‘ she thought coldly.
Carlos and Yana came back with Adam after some outdoor fun.
Adam curiously looked Blake up and down. “Who are you?”
“Who are you?” Blake frowned, wondering, ‘I haven’t even been gone that long. Since
Adam said, “I’m Adam Campbell, Mommy’s little sweetheart.”
Blake’s face darkened. “Your last name is Campbell? Is your father Yosef?”
did we have an extra kid in the house?‘
Adam gave a timid little nod. “Do you
know
my
dad?”
Just the thought of his most formidable business rival made Blake let out a cold, mocking laugh. “Yeah, I know him.”
Yosef has played dirty tricks on him more times than he could count and poached so many of his deals. Of course, he knew Yosef
Terrified at the sight of Blake’s dark expression, Adam instinctively huddled into Skylar’s arms and clung to her waist. “Mommy, I’m scared.”
Blake’s eyes widened slightly. “Mommy? Skylar, Are you married to Yosef? And you have a child?”
