When The Family Reads The Fake Heiress Mind

When the Family 81 Chapter 81 Julia Shows Up He gave a habitual curl of his lips, then smiled as he turned the phone around, screen facing Jem.

"Well: Impressed?" Jean blinked in surprise. This guy was actually showing off his gstats to her.

People bustled back and forth around them: the place was buzzing with noise and movement. But Easton looked like he existed in a different world-completely unaffected, completely immersed in himself, not giving a damn about anyone else.

"Mr. Easton Out of nowhere. Olive approached with a bright, eager smile on her face. She looked at Easton with a hopeful expression, her fingers nervously twisting together.

She had cover just to greet Easton. Right behind her. Dustin and Raylan also walked up- each one putting on a humble front as they offered their greetings to Easton.

Jean stared, slack-jawed. These people all looked older than Easton, yet in front of him, they acted like subordinates groveling before a superior.

So this was how it worked: Easton didn't need to say a word-people just cto him.

That was the law of the jungle in showbiz-those with enough falways ended up calling the shots.

"What're you thinking about?" Easton's lazy voice drifted into her ears.

Jean snapped out of her thoughts, her gaze landing-somewhat absentmindedly-on his deep-set eyes.

The guests had finished greeting him and returned to their seats. Easton sat there, eyes lowered. watching her with amused interest He knew exactly what was going through his sister's head.

But he still asked-on purpose-just to see how she'd respond.

Jean pressed her lips together and shook her head hard.

"I wasn't thinking anything- Easton curled his lips again and gave a soft chuckle.

"Really? You looked a little spaced out just now." Chapter 81 Julia Shows Up But Easton reached out and rubbed the top of her head; "You're too young to be worrying about stuff that doesn't matter.” Finished Under the light, the man's good-looking face took on a soft, pearly glow. His lips lifted into a dazzling smile.

"If you've got questions, just askdon't go overthinking thing Jean instinctively tried to bat his hand away, her face scrunched up in annoyance "Hey! I told you to stop messing with my hair...” She acted like she hated it, but inside, she kept replaying what Easton had just said. What the heck is up with this guy? Suddenly being all nice? Saying stuff like just ask me... Yeah right. I don't buy it for a second! He's still a scumbag-probably even worse than before! Easton let his hand fall away, glancing sideways at his sister, his eyes crinkling with amusement.

This stubborn little thing still clung to the belief that he was out to get her.

He had never actually done anything to hurt her. He just really enjoyed watching her squirm, struggle, freak out- it was entertaining, like a toy that satisfied his urge for chaos.

But then, Easton's eyes darkened just a little.

Lately... something felt different. He couldn't put his finger on it. If he had to describe it, maybe.... he liked watching Jean look dazed or happy more than seeing her panic. He liked watching her scarf down food with a satisfied little grin...

Weird. His tastes really were hard to predict.

And honestly, he had no idea when or how it all changed...

Wherever Easton went, he was always the most dazzling person in the room. Even now, sitting in an unremarkable corner where no one dared to approach, he was still the focus.

Plenty of people had their cars tuned in, catching glimpses of Easton's every move out of the corners of their eyes.

Naturally, everyone saw how Easton interacted with Jean.

They were surprised; they were curious. Who exactly was this little girl next to Easton? The high-and-mighty Easton had never been the approachable type-always distant and out of reach, like something just beyond arm's length.

Yet here he was, showing an unexpected side of himself to a young girl.

Strange. Really strange. But then agam, weird stuff happened in showbiz all the time. Even if 12:54 PM Chapter 81 Julia Shows Up Right then, a flurry of light, hurried footsteps sounded at the entrance, Finished A girl who looked like a porcelain doll-beautiful and adorable-cin dragging a suitcase, panting slightly from exertion..

"You are?" A staff member glanced at her in confusion, unable to hold back a question.

"Hello, everyone," the girl replied politely, giving a formal bow. Her snow-white face was tinged with two faint pink splotches, probably from the sunlight outside, making her look even more adorable.

"My name's Julia. I'm here for the show." "Oh, so you're Julia.

Taylor, who had been busy, immediately paused and strolled to the entrance for a closer look.

Julia was someone the station head had personally mentioned, but Taylor had never met her. before.

Seeing that the girl was pretty and well-mannered, Taylor felt relieved right away. With a kid this sweet, what could possibly go wrong? Jean, who'd been half-asleep and resting her chin on her hand, suddenly sat up straight the moment she heard the n"Julia." Sleepiness vanished in an instant.

"Wh... Julia?" Jean frowned anxiously and muttered under her breath.

"Where is Julia?" "Right over there.” Easton helpfully raised his hand and pointed toward the door.

He put his hand down right after, eyes still glued to his phone screen.

In truth, he hadn't looked. away from it once-he'd just happened to lift his long fingers for a moment.... Jean followed the direction Easton had pointed; her gaze cut through the crowd and landed right on Julia.

So this was Julia. She looked about the sage as Jean; clearly another civilian guest paired up with a celebrity.

Jean furrowed her brows, a flash of confusion in her eyes. I thought the storyline had already shifted....but N Julia still showed up right on cue.

Julia.. why is she still here? It doesn't add up. Everything else changed don't tellshe's still meant to end up with Easton? Easton's fingers suddenly froze mid-motion.

Chapter 81 Julia Shows Up Finished "You know Julia?" he asked. But in the next breath, he switched to his usual smiling face and looked over at Jeam.

Jean pressed her lips together and answered a little stiflly, "Nope." "Really?" Easton stared at her, his gaze laced with a smile-yet also bottomless and hard to read.

"Really." Jean obviously wasn't about to admit she knew the plot.

She frowned and stared back at Easton with a Cated look m Julia... That That girl was the first domino in Easton's complete and total downfall.
