Chapter 504 - Revenge 505: Cant Meet Tomorrow (1/2)

”Why do I feel like you made things worse for us, Anna?” Ophius asked. His voice sounded like he is out of energy.

”Does it matter? I mean we're already in trouble, might as well share what I think.” Anna nonchalantly replied.

It has been five minutes ever since the talk with her parents. Anna thought that they are going to immediately be punished after the talk, but unexpectedly, her parents decided to wait until they saw the information that they got from the mission.

That gave the four of them hope. But they don't expect much that hope.

”True,” Another unexpected thing is that Ophius has calmed down. To be more precise, he doesn't care anymore. After thinking things through, nothing he says will matter anymore. It will only be a waste of breath to keep on complaining.

”So, Ophius and I will stay here?” Lucia asked. She has no problem staying over at the Coleman mansion, but she also doesn't want to overstay her welcome.

”Yeah. I heard from my grandfather that he already talked to your parents and until everything is over, the two of you will stay.”

Aaron wanted to laugh at Lucia's question, but he restrained himself. It surprised him when she asked that when she, in fact, has been coming in and out of the Coleman mansion whenever she feels like it.

”That sucks.” Despite getting herself into trouble with her parents, Lucia still wanted to go home. She wanted to finish the project she's been working on, and once that project is done, she wants Mary and Mike to take a look at it.

'Looks like that project will have to wait.' She inwardly said.

While continuing their conversation, Anna's phone suddenly vibrated. She took a look at it, and a smile appeared on her face.

Aaron who have seen that smile a couple of times whenever she's on her phone, it's not hard for him to guess who is the reason for that smile of hers. 'Just one message from that can bring that smile out in an instant? That guy sure has quite an effect on her.'

Soon after, Anna's smile disappeared and her eyes showed sadness. Curious about why she is showing such emotion, Aaron asked, ”What's wrong?”

”Kyle wants to meet up tomorrow at our usual meeting spot, but I can't.” Most likely, her mother has finally decided on what kind of punishment they will take, and her mother will definitely not let her out and meet Kyle until the punishment is over.

Furthermore, her mother is not the type of person to make an exemption just because she is going out on a date with her boyfriend.

”Oh, so sad...” Aaron smirked. He didn't even feel bad that it's impossible for Anna and Kyle to meet up tomorrow.

”Why don't you just tell him that you can't come tomorrow and reschedule for another day?” Ophius suggested.

Ignoring that smirk on her brother's face, Anna faces Ophius and said, ”I would love to say that, but I don't know when will that 'another day' come.”

With Kyle busy with his studies and learning more knowledge about his family business under his father's care, Kyle doesn't have much free time as Anna wanted him to have. And she is not the type of person to get in Kyle's way. She doesn't want to be a girlfriend that gets in the way of her lover's success.

”If that's the case, then there is nothing you can do. Just tell him the truth, and I'm sure he'll understand.” Ophius has no idea what kind of person Kyle is, but from the way Anna is talking about him, he is convinced that Kyle really cares for Anna and whatever circ.u.mstances Anna is facing, he will be able to understand.

Following what Ophius said, Anna told Kyle the truth. She feels bad, but she doesn't want to get his hopes up for tomorrow. 'It looks like I have to again for another time.' Anna inwardly said.

She is sad, but there is nothing she can do about it.

”Don't be sad, Anna.”

Anna felt her brother's hand on her back, but if she didn't know any better, her brother is only faking it. The grin on his face is enough to tell her that he is enjoying the fact that she and Kyle can't meet up and it's going to take a while before they meet up again.

”Oh, shut it, you. I will be doing the same thing to you when Nathalia rejects you.”
