BXBX NOVEL Chapter 534
The group of brothers nearby immediately looked at her anxiously. "What\'s wrong?"
Keira took a deep breath. "A fire broke out at my house! I need to get back now!"
After that, she followed behind Lewis, striding toward the parking lot.
The car sped on the way home.
Keira\'s phone vibrated once, followed by a text message. "The fire was set by Fox! Keera, haven\'t you realized the severity of the situation yet? If you don\'t get married to Scott Martin soon, Fox will have time to break down your relationships with the five major families one by one!"
Keira\'s face tensed, and her hands clenched into fists. She angrily stared ahead, grinding her teeth and saying that name. "Fox!"
Everyone had been anxious about Ellis and Mary\'s situation, but Keira could clearly see that they were in love.
The previous misunderstandings were also due to Ellis\'s azoospermia...
Their reconciliation was just a matter of time. Keira hadn\'t been pushing them, only wanting Mary to come to her own understanding and clarity.
But if Mary really died in the fire, the arranged marriage between the Olsen family and the Davis family would be canceled, and her cooperation with the Davis family would also become less solid!
The car soon arrived at the South residence, and just upon entering the neighborhood, they saw a plume of black smoke rising into the sky. Firefighters had already arrived and surrounded the villa.
After seeing this, Keira rushed forward but was immediately stopped. "The fire has just been extinguished; it\'s still too hot inside. Going in now will get you killed! Our team will do their best to rescue people!"
Keira was shaking all over, and she asked, "Are there any casualties?"
The firefighter sighed. "It\'s not clear at the moment, but just now..." He paused before saying, "When we first arrived, the fire was fierce. Someone seemed to have rushed in, and we couldn\'t stop him."
That made Keira\'s pupils shrink. "Who was it?"
"It was Mr. Ellis from the Olsen family!"
The nanny was holding Amy, her voice trembling as she said, "He insisted on going in to save Miss Mary. He went inside before the firefighters arrived!"
It was Ellis!
Yes, how could Ellis stand by and do nothing when Mary was in danger?!
He had always been around here, trying to make Mary forgive him.
Keira tightened her jaw.
Following behind Keira, the group of Olsen brothers rushed over and exploded upon hearing this.
James shouted loudly, "It\'s Ellis!"
Charles swayed, his eyes turning red instantly. "It\'s Ellis... He did it to save his wife!"
Peter had just been about to follow Mr. Olsen upstairs to accept punishment, but seeing Keira\'s troubled face and all the brothers following her, he came along as well.
Hearing this, he immediately rushed to the firefighter. "Can the people inside survive?"
The firefighter hesitated for a moment, finally sighing. "The fire was too intense. Nearly all the rooms burst into flames immediately, and we couldn\'t get inside at first. We managed to extinguish the flames gradually by cooling the house from the outside, but the temperature inside, we estimate, could reach 300 degrees. No one could survive in such high temperatures..."
At these words, everyone was stunned.
Their eyes grew red, including Peter and a few other brothers, who immediately looked toward the South residence, which was now left with only its outer frame.
Suddenly, they stepped forward.
"Ellis!"
"Ellis!"
"..."
A desolate emotion spread among everyone, and they disbelievingly stared at the South residence.
Ellis... ever since Uncle Olsen decided he would remain unmarried for life, Ellis had been tacitly acknowledged as the next head of the Olsen family.
Since he was a child, he had been sent to the best places to study, always setting an example for his brothers. He had been an excellent elder brother.
The Olsen family\'s atmosphere was genuinely one of fraternal respect; none thought about usurping the position because everyone knew that even if Ellis became the successor, he wouldn\'t cast them aside...
Instead, Ellis would work hard to expand the Olsen family\'s business to make money for them.
They all trusted each other!
Because of that, the other brothers could pursue their own interests, with some studying music, some medicine, and some martial arts. They didn\'t have to carry the family responsibilities, all because Ellis alone had carried the family\'s heavy burdens!
James\'s legs staggered, his knees buckling as he knelt toward the blackened ruins of the South residence. With tears rolling down his cheeks, he cried out, "Ellis!"
The other brothers broke down in tears, one after the other, kneeling as well.
Peter stared dazedly at the blaze.
He and Ellis had the closest relationship because his other brothers all had their passions and interests, and he had the fewest opinions.
So, he had always stayed at home, spending the most time with Ellis...
He watched everything before him in a daze, struggling to imagine whether Ellis\'s kind face truly vanished from this world.
Keira clenched her fists tight. Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn
Just then, a voice came from the side, "Keera, are you satisfied now?"
Several people turned their heads only to see Susan with tears streaming down her face. She stared at Keira as she asked, "If you had persuaded Mary to forgive your Ellis sooner, they would have already moved into the Olsen residence. How could they have died in this fire?"
