Chapter 504 - Revenge 505: Cant Meet Tomorrow (2/2)
”Rejects me? How can you be sure that will happen?”
”It's easy. You said that you're going to court her, but did you? No. You didn't do any courting yet. Soon, Nathalia will get tired of waiting and rejects you.” Right now, it's impossible for that to happen, but if her brother continues not to do anything, Anna is confident that Nathalia is going to get tired of waiting.
”Nonsense.” Aaron doesn't believe a word Anna is saying. He is sure that his sister is only saying that because she is annoyed by him. So he is not gonna let her word gets into his head.
”Don't kid yourself, Aaron. That is a fact, you know?” Ophius said, then he snickered. He has a friend who said the same thing but didn't do any courting, at all. In the end, his friend got rejected.
Ophius has no idea why courtship is very important to girls when in the end, they're going to be in a relationship with that suitor. But what right does he have to say anything? It's better to keep his opinion all to himself.
”What's this? The great Aaron Coleman is going to get dump so soon? Aww, I can't for that to happen.” Lucia commented in a ridiculing tone. She can't wait to see Aaron's crying eyes when Nathalia rejects him. And when that moment comes, she will record it.
Aaron is silent, he is definitely thinking about the possibility of it to happen. It has been days since the day he said those words to Leonardo, and he has yet done anything for Nathalia. Worry is suddenly engulfing his heart.
”Hmm? Why are you making that face?” It's Anna's turn to make her brother feels what she felt earlier when he was teasing her. He should not have started and she would not have said a word.

Meanwhile, on Kyle's side, he is staring at the message Anna replied to him. He doesn't know what to say. Should he reschedule for another day or should he convince Anna to slip away from her mother's grasp?
He doesn't want to do either of those. If he reschedules, it's going to take a few more days before he could find free time for him, and he badly wants to see Anna right now. And if he told Anna to slip away, then she would get in trouble with her mother, he doesn't want to see her be in trouble because of him.
”Damn it.” He muttered, but he was heard by his family.
”What's the matter, Kyle?” Elijah asked.
”He's like that because Anna can't meet him tomorrow,” Lannie said. She sits right next to her brother and it's not hard for her to see the conversation between the two lovers.
Kyle glared at Lannie for peeking at his phone. He can't believe that even at this point, his sister is still as nosy as ever.
”And why she can't?”
Ignoring her brother's glare, Lannie continued to speak, ”She got herself in trouble while she was out on a mission, and her mother got angry because of it, and now getting punished for it tomorrow.”
”Lannie, can you stop doing that?” Kyle is irritated at the fact that the question for him is being answered by her. ”I can speak on my own, there is no need for you to do that.”
”Oh, please. I'm sure that you wouldn't answer my grandfather's question that's why I took the liberty to answer it for you. You should at least be grateful of me.” Her brother talks as if she doesn't know him.
Growing up together with her brother, she knew that he's the type to never answer anybody's question, even in their family, unless he felt like answering it.
”Anyways, back to our original topic...” Elijah interrupted them. He can already tell that if they continue, they going to end up arguing, and at his age, he can't stand hearing them like that. ”If she can't come tomorrow to meet up with you, then why don't you just visit her?”
Elijah has no idea what his grandson is thinking, but a solution like what he just said is a simple solution. 'Why didn't he just thought of that instead of staring at his phone and thinking so hard?'
Kyle was left in silence, he didn't know what to say. He can't believe that someone as intelligent as he can't think of a simple solution like that.
”You're right. Thank you, Grandfather.”
