Chapter 68 - Revenge 67: Erik Ruined Her Plan (1/2)
When Anna left the Robertson estate it was nearly dinner time and when food is already placed on the table that is the time when Kyle finally showed himself to everyone in the house along with Erik. When both friends entered the dining room the first two faces that they saw is Kyle's little sister and his father. Their faces were full of frowns as if they are so angry that Kyle is home.
”Is that how you welcome me now?” He asked. He wonders what did he do to make his father and sister look at him like that. He looks at his silent mother and asked again, ”What did I do to them?”
Truth to be told, Layla is also quite down because of her son. From the time she spends with Anna even though it was cut short, she got this same feeling the way her husband and daughter felt for Anna. For them, Anna is more worthy for the future hostess of the Roberton family. She also would also like to help her daughter pair up her son and Anna but she also knows that it's going to be hard to pair them up. In her perspective, Anna is a dense girl she won't realize it until someone told her so and for her son, he's denser than Anna; he dislikes women getting near him and it's going to be a big headache to pair them up together.
”You did nothing except for the fact that you weren't home much earlier.” Layla just casually said as she elegantly cut in half the food in her plate.
”Oh! I can explain that!” Erik happily volunteered to explain why Kyle just got home at this time. ”I kinda off force Kyle to a club with me. You know where hot chicks in there.” After Erik said his piece he was waiting for praise from Lannie for his successful job on successfully dragging Kyle at the club but instead he got a dagger-like stare from Lannie. His heart sank for some reason; usually, Lannie would say 'Good job dragging my brother to that place!' but now she was not saying anything and only glaring at him. Didn't he do a great job?
Layla notices that her daughter is boiling in a rage because of what Erik just said. Before her daughter could go berserk on Erik and Kyle she gestures the boys to stop talking and join them for dinner; the two complied.

After their delicious silent meal, Lannie stood up and went somewhere. Kyle was confused that his sister is unusually quiet throughout the whole meal. This is not the first that she's like that but whenever she's like that she's not in a good mood.
”Who made her angry?” He asked.
Stan wanted to say 'You and Erik of course.' but he just shrugged as if he doesn't know the real reason why his daughter is like that.
After a short while, Lannie came back with a small plate in her hands and there was a piece of cake in it. She places it in front of her brother and said, ”Eat it.”
Kyle looks at her. Why on earth is she ordering him to eat the cake? He knew that his sister knows that he's not a big fan of cakes. Why does why she wants him to eat it?
