Chapter 272 - Revenge 273: Good Job, Sister (1/2)
”I know this place is old, but the feeling, the vibe of this place is very historical. So breathtaking.” Aside from her admiring every type of motorbikes, Anna also likes to admire old things.
She thinks that because of her grandfather, she does and likes things that she never expected. Her wanting to pursue painting is because of her grandfather. Her grandfather painted her a portrait of herself when Anna was seven years of age. The result of the painting was very beautiful, that was the reason why she wanted to pursue painting now.
”You're being weird, sister.” When it comes to admiring things, Anna and Aaron are the exact opposites. Aaron admires fast cars and modern technologies. With them admiring different things, they sometimes argue about it.
”Brother, I'm not being weird, I just have good eyes in things, and you don't.” Whenever Anna sees a chance, she would tell her brother that the beauty of old things is better than the beauty of modern things.
Aaron scoffed at his sister, ”Please, good eyes? Seriously? I think you are wrong.” Aaron wants to prove to his sister that modern things are better than the old ones. However, no matter how much he tries, his sister never agreed to anything that he said.
As Anna and Aaron continued their argument, Aaron led his sister to the room where he found that intriguing item.
”Old things are—” Anna was not able to finish her words when her eyes landed on a very beautiful item that is protected by a glass case. ”Oh my goodness! I want that.” She declared. She rarely wants somethings, but this is the first time that she wants to have a beautiful necklace like the one before her.
She's not really a jewelry type of person, but there is something that is pulling her to want to have that necklace. She could tell that there is a story behind it.
”Beautiful, isn't it?” When Aaron made that comment, his sister looks at him with a surprised expression. He noticed that look on her face, and asked her, ”What? Did I say something wrong?”
”No. No. I, I'm just surprised that you said that. This necklace is old, and you never like old stuff.” In just one glace, Anna could tell that this necklace before them is very historical. And for her brother to like it is very surprising. They even argued about modern and old things earlier.
”That is true, but even if this necklace is old, I do appreciate the beauty of a thing that has a story behind it.” Aaron can tell that this necklace describes the legacy of their family, where the Colemans started to climbed up.
Aaron never asked his grandfather about their family history since all he does is complain about the works his grandfather is giving to him. Now he regretted not asking about their family history.
Without any warnings, Anna took the case off and then lifted the necklace up. Aaron was shocked and was about to scold his sister's action when the wall behind them suddenly opened. The twins were startled by it. They stared at the opened wall. They can tell that it's a passage that leads to another room.
”Um... Please tell me that our family history is not about our ancestors selling drugs to climbed up the ladder.” Seeing that dark path, Anna can't help think that there is a dark history of their family.
