Reborn, My Family Tried to Bury Me, So I Burned It All Down!
Chapter 7
Hearing this, everyone instinctively turned to look in that direction.
A tall young man was walking toward us, a smile on his face, holding a gift bag in his hand. He seemed to ignore everyone around him and cast a tender glance toward me.
He was my older brother, Gwen.
The crowd greeted him with flattering smiles, and Krasty, showing her most gentle side, hurried to meet him.
However, Allen was faster than her.
Allen quietly explained the situation, and Gwen glanced briefly at the people from the Quinnell family and the Donald family.
They all involuntarily shuddered, lowered their heads, and dared not meet Gwen’s gaze.
Krasty approached, feigning annoyance as she said to Allen, “Now that Gwen is back, don’t let him worry about such trivial matters.”
As she spoke, she linked her arm with Gwen’s and softly said, “Darling, you must be exhausted from all your work outside. Thank you for everything.”
“Wow, this is a limited edition diamond watch. Is it a gift for me?”
“Darling, thank you. I’m so touched!”
Krasty looked at the gift bag in Gwen’s hand with an excited face, reaching out to take it.
Gwen gently avoided her hand, his voice cool as he said, “This gift is for my sister.”
Krasty froze for a moment.
However, she quickly regained composure, saying in a considerate tone, “I also brought a gift for Miss Will!”
“Gwen, take me to meet Miss Will. She must be an extraordinary person as the heiress of the Will family. As the future lady of the house, I must make a good impression on her.”
Gwen raised an eyebrow and gave her a brief glance before responding indifferently, “You’ve already met her.”
“Unfortunately, it seems you didn’t leave a good impression on my sister.”
Krasty was stunned, and everyone else was equally taken aback.
Gwen walked toward me.
Wynter and Quinnell, thinking Gwen was coming to speak with them, hurried forward, eager to greet him.

But Gwen simply walked past them without even sparing them a glance.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Gwen arrived before me.
He looked at me with soft eyes, reaching out to ruffle my hair affectionately, saying, “Welcome home, sister!”
“This is a gift I bought for you. Try it on and see if you like it.”
He handed me the gift bag.
I took it, a little shy, and said, “Thank you, brother.”
Everyone froze, especially Wynter and the others, who stared wide–eyed, unable to believe what they were seeing. Their faces turned pale.
Wynter blurted out, “This can’t be true!”
“She’s clearly the adopted daughter of the Donald family. How can she be the heiress of the Will family? There must
be some mistake!”
Before her words had even finished, her cousin Krasty slapped her hard across the face,
Krasty’s face was dark with fury as she glared at Wynter, gritting her teeth and saying, “Shut up, you damn wretch! You almost got me killed.”
Ignoring Wynter’s terrified and desperate expression, Krasty quickly approached me, no longer with her previous arrogance, but now humble and fearful as she apologized to me.
“Miss Will, I’m so sorry.”
“I was deceived by them, and what I said before was not intentional.”
“If I had known you were the heiress of the Will family, I wouldn’t have dared to say such things, even if you gave me ten times the courage!”
Krasty apologized in a flustered and anxious manner, carefully glancing at Gwen’s face.
Gwen didn’t respond to her but instead turned to me, his voice soft as he said, “Sister, this is our home.”
“No one can bully you anymore. I was planning to deal with those who wronged you once I returned, but since they’re all here, there’s no need to waste any more time.”
“What do you want to do with them?”
