Chapter 268 They Are All Dead

Compared to the other families, the Palmer family was prosperous. The family was very large. From the generation of Simon’s father, there were many children. Even now, the old Mrs. Palmer, or Simon’s grandmother, was still alive.

However, since she was old, the burden of the Palmer family was no longer on her. Simon was in charge of all the affairs of the Palmer family. In other words, his uncle, aunt, and others all had to listen to him in the affairs of the Palmer family.

However, Silvia had never known that Simon had any brothers or sisters. When did he become an older brother, the fourth oldest one?

Simon gently stroked the back of Silvia’s head.

“What?” Silvia asked in surprise, “Why didn’t I know?”

“The Palmer family never mentioned it to the public. So, few outsiders knew about it. Even if they do, it’s been years. People no longer talk about it, so it’s gradually forgotten,” Simon said faintly.

Life was a passing journey where people met and people forgot. Not everyone could be remembered.

“So… Your brothers or sisters…”

Silvia asked carefully. Since the matter had never been mentioned, a story that was difficult to tell must be behind it.

“Brothers.” Simon replied, “I had three older brothers, but…”

After a pause, he turned to look at Silvia, his eyes as deep as the sea, “They are all dead.”

Silvia opened her eyes wide.

Although she was somewhat mentally prepared, she was still shocked when she heard it from Simon.

Three brothers, three lives, all deceased.

“Were they … sick?” Silvia thought of an explanation. Otherwise, with the Palmer family’s power, how could they fail to protect their children?

“My oldest brother died when he was very young. My second oldest brother was carefully protected, but when he was six, a car accident took his life. My third oldest brother was said to have died from a disease. I don’t know. I was too young.”

Simon was very calm, both in his tone and expression. There were no emotions displayed on his face. Yet, the calmer he looked, the sorrier Silvia felt for him. Subconsciously, she raised her hand and held him tightly.

It shouldn’t be easy for him to survive when all his three older brothers died. The pressure he had been bearing must be great.

Silvia thought that her childhood was unpleasant enough, but his was even bitterer.

“My mother couldn’t take the blow. She died. And my father, in less than two years, died too. They went for a reunion in another world.” When he said the last sentence, he chuckled.

“Simon…” Calling his name softly, Silvia felt sorry for him,

She never knew the secret of the Paliner family. It turned out that his closest relatives were all gone. No wonder he was so disillusioned. No wonder he looked indifferent.

“I am here!” Simon answered gently, turning his face to her, and kissing her on the forehead. “Don’t feel sorry for me. It’s been a long time. I feel nothing about it. I mean it.”

“I don’t care if you feel anything. In the future, I will be here for you!” She would accompany him, forever.

“Of course, you are here. Do you want to run away?” He chuckled, “You have no chance. Have you been lazy recently? I heard that the Marsis soap is almost done.”

Knowing that he was trying to change the topic, Silvia did not expose him. She followed his words and acted like a spoiled child. “What kind of a boss are you? You talk about work even at home. If you push me too hard, I will strike!”

“You won’t. You are going to make your grandfather some scented candles.” Simon smiled and said, “This is a new attempt. If the results are good, there should be more cooperation projects in the future. It will be more convenient for us to open the market in France.”

As a businessman, Simon had a long-term vision. Silvia did not know much about businesses, but she knew fragrance and perfume quite well and knew that expanding international markets was not that easy.

“The soup is similar to ordinary soap except that the composition of the Marsis soap is special and more flexible. I have been trying to find a balance. When I find it, adding different fragrances will be easy.” Having been studying for the past few days, Silvia sounded like an expert. “I’m almost there. It will be successful soon.”

“I knew my wife is the best!” He held her cheek and kissed her heavily on her forehead.

Silvia’s face turned hot from his direct confession. She gently pushed him. “Stop flattering me!”

“After this thing is done, I have to make scented candles for grandfather as soon as possible. Also, Lisa asked me to make an exclusive perfume for her. Recently, I have been really busy!”

“Before that… You need to take a good rest!” Simon picked her up.

With red bricks and red tiles, the house was very ordinary yet cozy. Unlike the fine-designed architecture of the building outside, the house was very messy inside.

Beer bottles were everywhere.

A person was leaning against the bed in the corner, holding a bottle in one hand and looking up at the ceiling with dull

eyes.

He kicked away the beer bottles rolling on the ground, making a clear sound or glass colliding. However, this sound seemed to have no effect on the man on the bed.

He raised his head to drink, his posture still the same.

However, there was probably not much beer left in the bottle. He raised his head, trying to drink, yet to his disappointment, the bottle was empty. So, he threw it aside.

“Clank!” The sound of collision shattering.

Frowning, Ingrid walked past the mess on the ground and stood in front of the man. “When are you planning to stop drinking?”

“You don’t want me to drink your beers?” He raised his eyes and sneered at her, then picked up a beer next to him, opened it, and poured it down his throat.

“I said that you can have as much as you want! if you want to fall, it’s up to you. Anyway, this is your own choice. But if you want to stand up, I am here for you at any time.” She stood there in the middle of empty bottles and broken glass.

The black cashmere coat made her look noble and delicate, completely out of place with the mess on the

“But what can you do? Can you save my company? Or can you make time turn around?” if he could, he really wanted to turn back time. There were too many things he regretted, but unfortunately, he couldn’t.

“Of course…” Ingrid paused. “No!”
