Chapter 1011 - JM And Terry (1/2)

Rune tried to cover his face with one hand so that Terry wouldn't see him. He really hoped Terry and JM would walk in the opposite direction of the restaurant's terrace where he and Rose were having lunch.

'Please... don't come here ... Pease, don't come here ... Please, don't come here ...' Rune muttered internally over and over again as if chanting a spell.

However, the universe was not on his side today.

”Gosh! They are walking this way!!” exclaimed Rose enthusiastically. She got up from her chair and patted Rune on the back. ”I want to ask for a photo together with JM.”

Rune was stunned when he heard Rose's words. He watched the girl walk enthusiastically toward the restaurant entrance and waited for JM and Terry to come over.

The young man was surprised by Rose's actions. Wasn't this girl a duke's daughter and came from a very respectable family?

Why did she humble herself and ask for a photo together with a celebrity? He didn't know Rose could act like a fangirl.

Finally, out of instinct, Rune also walked after Rose.

Although he actually didn't wish to meet anyone in Medion while he was spending time with Rose and getting to know her family, Rune felt it would be better if he helped Rose get the photos she wanted.

When he arrived by the girl's side, Rune whispered to her ear, ”I didn't know you could be fangirling a celebrity and ask for her photo. You don't look the type.”

Rose shook her head. ”You're right, I am not a fangirl. This photo is for my friend, not for me. You know how nice George is to me, don't you? If I could make him happy once in a while, what's wrong with that?”

”Oh, I see,” Rune nodded with a smile. So, the picture was for George.

Aha.

”Even though I think George would be heartbroken if he found out that JM is with her boyfriend, he would still love to get a photo or shoutout from her,” Rose continued.

”Eh ..? Boyfriend?” Rune asked in puzzlement. ”Who?”

”That one. Did you see the guy who is walking with her?” said Rose, tilting her chin towards JM and Terry who were walking casually toward the restaurant where they were waiting.

Terry's hand embraced his sister's shoulder affectionately and the two of them seemed to be chatting with each other with smiling faces.

Rune batted his eyes and looked at Rose and Terry alternately. Then, he laughed in amus.e.m.e.nt. ”Ahahaha ... that's not her boyfriend.”

”Really? But if he is not her boyfriend, why are they so affectionate toward each other?” asked Rose.

Rune shook his head. ”What you see there is not an intimacy between lovers. Have you never seen siblings walking together?”

”Are they really siblings?” This time, Rose looked even more confused. She thought Rune was joking. ”One is obviously Asian and the other one is white ... How can they be siblings? Oh.. did you mean they are adoptive siblings?”

Rune subconsciously facepalmed himself.

Ah.. that's right. He forgot that Terry and JM didn't look alike. Terry looked Asian and JM looked European, even though they had the same father.

Jeez ... he should have kept his mouth shut.

Now, he must explain the weird dynamic within the Wang family.

Or, maybe he could just lie and told Rose that those two were indeed adoptive siblings.

”Uncle Rune! What are you doing in Bacilia???”

Rune froze in place. The event happened so suddenly and he had not had time to prepare a story to give to Rose.

JM already saw him and she immediately rushed over toward Rune and Rose, leaving Terry behind. Rose became surprised when she saw JM running towards them and waving at Rune excitedly.

”Do you know JM?” asked Rose who looked baffled. She turned to Rune and stared at him intently, asking for an explanation. ”She is calling your name.”

”Uhm ... well, you see, I was...” Rune was completely unprepared to answer that question. He scratched his head which was not itchy and stared at JM's approaching figure.
