Chapter 389 - Revenge 390: It Has Nothing To Do With Me (1/2)

”Can you please not touch my brother?” Anna stands in between her brother and Marietta. She is not letting that woman touch a single part of her brother's body. ”I'm sorry, but no matter what you say, there is nothing my brother can do. It's already been decided.”

”N-No! If you and your brother talk to your grandfather, I'm sure he will reconsider his choice.” Since the family is so important to Marcus, Marietta thinks that she can use that fact to her advantage. No matter what kind of crimes she and her husband did, they will be forgiven because they are family.

”Marietta, stop being delusional. Yes, the Coleman family is important to Marcus, however, what you did is unforgivable. James is an exemption because he is Marcus' son.” Although James is not going to be kicked out of the family, that does not mean that he will not receive his punishment.

Everyone has agreed and it has been decided. There is nothing more Marietta can do to change everyone's opinion.

Losing all the hope she has left, Marietta is now on her knees. She doesn't have enough strength to stand up. All her hard work, every risk that she took was all for naught.

”Hey,” Leon who noticed that the father and daughter pair are trying to escape the place he called them out. ”Just because nobody is talking about the two of you that doesn't mean that some of us have forgotten about you.” Truthfully said, Leon almost did forgot about them. They have low importance for today's event that he did not even bother to pay too much attention to them.

”Ilana, you and your father shouldn't go anywhere. The police are on their way to capture your father, and you should take this time to find a way on how you should pay off your father's debts.” Anna said with a smile.

Anna is clearly trying to provoke Ilana, and it is working. However, Ilana can't harm Anna the way she wanted to because if she does, it will only cause her more trouble.

All she wanted is to have a position higher than everyone else. How did everything she achieved so far backfired on her? At this point, she doesn't even know where should she point all the blame for misfortune at.

”Anna, Aaron, come with me.” A voice from behind called out the twins' name, and it was their grandfather. He has a serious look on his face that the twins don't even know if he is angry at them or not.

The twins only nodded and followed their grandfather, but before they could leave the room, Anna stopped and turned around to where Leon is. ”Leon take care of them.” She said referring to Ilana and Isaiah.

As a reply, Leon gave her a thumbs up.

As the twins were following their grandfather, they noticed that the place they are heading to is to the room where the history of their family is stored at.

”I think we're in big trouble, brother,” Anna whispered to her brother. The only reason Anna could think of what they are doing here in this secret room is because of the necklace that they hid for quite some time.

”Of course, we are. I mean, look, Elder Martha is coming along with us too. I have a huge hunch that we're dead meat.” Aaron whispered back. Now, he is thinking about how should he act in front of his grandfather once they've reached their destination.

Should he act cool? Or should he act brave? Which image should he present to them later? Aaron doesn't want the two elders to see that he is slightly afraid of the punishment they might give to him.

'I have to act tough!' He inwardly said.

”Stop whispering, you two.” Martha's tone of voice is neither angry or friendly. The twins have no idea what kind of treatment they should be expecting from her.
