Chapter 122 - Sticking their noses into his business (1/2)

Alexandre looked at his sister. Who immediately turned her gaze away. She was so dead!

”You really keep your family at home, hiding them from everyone! I didn't want to believe what I was hearing.”

”This is so not right!”

”Yes, you do!” Whimpered his sister.

”I simply don't like it when someone...” He looked at his sister. ”Without announcing himself, is blowing into my house!”

”I am your sister!”

”You seek only your own pleasure regardless of the inconvenience it causes others.”

”That's not true! Control freak!” Snorted his sister with cheeks red with rage.

Suddenly he felt a slight squeeze around his hand, anxiously he looked over to Lily. She shook her head gently. ”Louise, you are of course always welcome in the house.” His wife tried to defuse the situation. He admired her for her calm.

Loulou's eyes fell on her brother. ”Really?”

Alexandre squinted his eyes. Don't overdo it, sister. Don't overdo it! He nodded, reluctantly though.

Suddenly the waiter stood at the table, probably he had waited for the heated discussion to pass.

Alexandre accepted the wine glass that the young man had handed him. He swayed the wine in his glass so that the aromas could be released before he held his nose over it to scent it. He nodded, instructing the waiter to fill all but Lily's glasses. He knew she didn't like alcohol, so he had them serve spring water. Then the first course was served. Unfortunately, to Lily's despair, Adrien shrugged his nose at the soup and would not allow a spoon to go into his mouth. So his grandmother ordered fries for the picky eater. Alexandre wanted to stop his mother's behavior, but gave it up after another heated discussion and wished his family would not stick their noses into his business.
