Chapter 3662


    Elora could already tell how her younger brothers would turn out. Alonzo would likely grow up to be


    bold and ambitious, while Angelo would follow the rules more closely.


    Being ambitious wasn’t a bad thing, but it was important not to take risks without being sure of the


    oue or get into trouble.


    Elora knew she needed to talk to their parents about Alonzo’s education. Even though she was


    often busy, she always kept an eye on how he was doing in school because she cared deeply about


    his future.


    At home, if Alonzo ever misbehaved, the elders would spoil him, avoiding punishment. But when


    Elora found out, she wouldn’t hold back. Even if he cried or acted spoiled, she would discipline him,


    correct his mistakes, and make him write a self-reflection. If the parents, uncles, or aunts tried to


    protect him, they would also have to write one.


    Elora’s goal was to prevent the boys from getting into serious trouble in the future. Of course, she


    didn’t mind harmless mischief. Boys would be boys, after all, as long as they knew right from


    wrong.


    By instilling good values from an early age, she believed that even the most daring boys wouldn’t


    cross any lines or do anything harmful or illegal when they grew up.


    “Elora, Tatum said you can have some soup. He served you a bowl and told you toe inside,”


    Mrs. Ormond said as she approached, seeing Elora with her brothers. When the boys heard about


    the soup, their eyes lit up. They grabbed Elora’s hands and said excitedly, “Sister, I want soup too!


    Brother Tatum’s soup is the best.”


    Angelo chimed in, “I’m having dinner at your ce today, and I want soup too!”


    Whenever Tatum was home, Angelo always had his meals at his uncle’s house. Elora smiled, “Don’t


    worry, there’s enough for both of you. Let’s head inside, stop ying in the snow, and warm up with


    some hot soup.”


    “Yay!” Alonzo cheered, letting go of Elora’s hand and running toward the house.


    “Alonzo, slow down! Be careful!” Mrs. Ormond called out, hurrying after him.


    Angelo ran after them, as if he might miss out on the soup if he didn’t keep up.


    Eloraughed, watching her brothers dash off. She nced at the snow turtles they had made and


    admired how well they turned out. She couldn’t resist taking a couple of photos.


    Though Elora rarely posted on social media, she shared the pictures with the caption: “My brothers’


    masterpieces.”


    Within moments, the post was flooded with likes.


    Her phone rang. It was her best friend calling.


    “Elora, when did you get back? I brought you some souvenirs from my trip. Your mom said you were


    away on business, so I didn’t want to bother you.”


    Elora, walking toward the house, replied, “I just got back today. I’ll be heading back to work this


    afternoon. I’m surprised you’re back! I thought you and your husband would be traveling for years.”


    Her best friend, Rosie, had gotten married three months ago and had been on a honeymoon abroad


    ever since. Although it was a business marriage, Rosie and her husband had known each other


    since childhood and had a close bond. Since neither was the eldest in their families, they didn’t


    have the pressure of running the family business, so they had plenty of time and money to travel. N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
