Chapter 275 - Revenge 276: Finding Faults (1/2)

By the time, Anna and Aaron are back home, the first thing that she heard is that their uncle James and his wife came over for dinner.

”Brother, I think I just lost my appetite.” Anna thought that she would never hear her uncle James' name for the rest of the day, but she thought wrong. Her uncle and his wife are shameless enough to stay over for dinner.

She regrets not recording the conversation between her uncle James and his wife. If she and her brother did not focus on listening to them, they would have to record it and show it to her grandfather. But then again, Anna is not sure that her grandfather would believe it.

It's obvious that despite being not the real son of her grandfather, Anna can tell that her grandfather really loves her uncle James. With that fact, Anna believes that everything is not about being blood-related. Sometimes the bond is much stronger than blood.

”Anna, just bear with it. We need to act as if nothing happened. Besides, you're gonna hurt nanny Tess' feelings if you don't eat her cooking.” Aaron said nonchalantly. Just like Anna, he also lost his appetite when he first heard tonight's guests. But what can he do? They are already here, and he does not want to act rude to them all of a sudden.

”Fine.”

With a heavy heart, the twins arrived at the dining room where everyone is waiting.

”Finally, you guys are here! Don't you know how long we have been waiting for you guys?” When the twins heard the voice, their mood had plummeted very deeply. They expected their uncle James and his wife, but they did not expect to see their annoying cousin too. ”It's very rude to keep your guests waiting, you know?”

”Sharon is right. You two shouldn't keep your guests waiting for you. Especially you, Aaron, you are going to be next in line if the future, and you must stay on task.” James said coldly towards the twins. He's acting like a strict uncle who only wants the best for his nephew and niece.

The twin's lips twitched in annoyance when they heard what their shameless uncle just said. Aaron knows that he promised to himself that he will not be rude to his uncle James for tonight, but he thinks that he won't be able to keep that promise if his uncle James keeps on being a shameless bastard.

Sensing that her brother is getting annoyed, Anna held her brother's hand tightly and spoke to her uncle James in a calm tone. ”Uncle, why do you and your family refer yourself as a guest? You guys are family. The way you said it makes me think that your an outsider of our precious family.”

As Anna said her words, she watched her uncle James' every reaction. It was only for a second, but Anna is sure that she saw an angry expression on him the moment she said the word 'outsider.'

”And you hurt our feelings, uncle.” Aaron started. ”You and cousin Sharon accused me and my sister of being late when we didn't even know that you guys are coming over to dinner.” Aaron and Anna exactly know what they are trying to do. They are trying to ruin their image in front of Marcus. But it seems that their effort is not working. ”Besides, the usual dinner time in this house if an hour from now.”

Aaron made is clear that the ones at the wrong is them and not him and his sister. There was no notice of them coming over for dinner, and James knows this. James could not help but put on a forced smile. ”I see. Then, this uncle apologizes for accusing you two.”

”Now, now, let's stop this talk, and start our dinner,” Marcus said, and he also gestured the twins to take their seats.

They ate in silence and sometimes the family prefers to eat this way. However, it seems like Gloria took this moment as her chance to attack the twins. ”Oh my goodness, you two, where are your manners?”
