Summer Nollan

"I'm what? Look Wesley, I think you're going crazy." I said as I let out a loud laugh. I even looked at Hanni but she looked at me flatly.

"Summer." I turned to see a woman in her 50s and I looked at her confused.

"No way, Mr. Nollan?" Hanni turned to the man who I assumed is the husband.

"Hello Hanni."

"I'm assuming you're looking for your bracelette judging by how messy your apartment is." Wesley said and he has the bracelette in his hand. My eyes widen and I looked at him disbelief.

"Where did you find this?"

"I found it at the party, it was in front of the toilet." That's when Darren dragged me and I can't believe this.

"We were the one who gave it to you when you're little, I can't believe we found you.. after 20 years." Wesley said and I'm still processing the information. I took a step back completely confused, stressed and weirdly happy.

"We've been looking for you, Summer." The woman said.

"20 years, we never stopped looking and I can't believe that we found you." The man said and I turned to Hanni.

"She must be confused, let's give her time to process it. Sit down, Summer." Wesley walked over to me and led me to sit on the sofa beside the couple who I assumed to be my parents.

"I'm an orphan, I thought I don't have any family." I said looking at Wesley and Hanni. My heart felt so weird like it's going to burst.

"How about we talk alone?" Wesley asked and I nodded. I gestured him to follow me to my bedroom. I sat on the edge of the bed and Wesley closed the door.

"Hey, are you okay?" He asked.

"It's hard to believe this. I thought I don't have a family, I was going to look for my family or maybe relatives by saving my money and now.."

"Summer, we've been looking for you for 20 years and when I saw thay bracelette, I can't breath. I have the same one and it was a custom made by our grandparents so there's no way that it could be someone else's. I saw the CCTV already." He said completely making me speechless. Wesley kneeled in front of me holding my hand.

"I don't think it's possible."

"Why? Why do you think that?"

"I lived at the orphanage since I was 3, I don't have any memories about my family. They told me that I got that bracelette wrapped around my ankle multiple times." I said and Wesley nodded.

"Dad has a rival in his business world. We made some enemies and when we're taking you to the park when you're just 5 months old, someone kidnapped you and threatened us. We never got you back but one thing we know that you're still out there."

"After I found it, I went throught the CCTVmultiple times and it dropped when you had an arguement with Darren." He added and I shook my head

"That doesn't prove that I'm your sister, pretty impossible."

"You're 20 years old, the same exact age. You have a birthmark on your shoulder too." My eyes widen when he said that.

"You saw it at the party!"

"I did but anyone can have that birthmark but when I saw your baby pictures, it's the exact same birthmark. I can show you." He took out his phone and showed me my baby pictures and it has the same exact birthmark. I looked at him disbelief.

"I can't believe this. I was going to find you whenI have enough money!" I said as I started to cry and he pulled me into a hug.

"We glad that we found you first."

"I don't even know when is my birthday." I said as I pulled away.

"April 6th." He said and I nodded. There's a knock on the door and we turned to see my parents standing there. They're looking at me with a teary eye.

"You can't have her alone, can I get a hug too?" He asked and I nodded. They're the ones who walk towards me to hug me. It felt weird but at the same time I felt warmth.

"I can't believe that we finally found you!" My mom said as she pulled me into a hug again. It felt weird after being alone for always 17 years but I'm happy. I know I will be happier soon.

"You need to move in with us, Summer." My dad said and I turned to Wesley.

"Are you okay with that? We don't want to force you too quickly. I know all of these is such a shock for you." Wesley said and I nodded.

"I think I'm okay with moving in." I said shyly.

"Great! That's great!" My mom said.

"Uhmm.. Okay.. uhmm.."

"Mom." She said as she held my hand.

"Mom.. right.."

"I'm dad.." I turned to him and chuckled.

"I guess the Nollan is complete now." Wesley said.

"We're complete now." My dad said.

"But should we do.. a DNA test or something? You don't want to take the wrong.. girl." I said and I looked at them one by one.

"You have mom's eyes, dad's hair and that birthmark and you're in college with business as your major. I think it's too obvious." Wesley said.

"We did.. actually and it came 99%." My mom said.

"What? How?"

"The bracelette." Right.

"We missed a lot of years together and we promise that we will make it up to you. You don't need to worry about money anymore, we will give you best facility too. Not to mention that we will give you cars-"

"Dad, you're scaring her." Wesley cut him.

"You'll be learning business too, and someone will teach you." My mom said and I raised my eyebrows.

"You can't teach me?" I asked.

"Honey, I'm a designer so I'm not good at explaining business. I thought your dad will be boring because he's old and your brother is not good at teaching so we have someone else to teach you."

"You're really scaring here." Wesley said to mom.

"It's fine, I'll get use to it." I said.

"Darren Conte." He said with a smile on his face.
