Chapter 46 - My Brother Came To Visit Me (1) (2/2)

Huh? What? What is he apologizing for?

I blinked then stared at him, and in my curious gaze, he showed me a serene smile.

“Your brother came here.”

“My brother?”

I paused.

If he came here, why haven’t I seen him? Moreover, why didn’t he show himself to me?

“Your brother came all the way here for the first time in a while, but something came up, so he went back immediately.”

He lifted the teacup and spoke.

“He came all the way to the Oval Office, but unfortunately, some unexpected things happened. I’m afraid your family has a lot of work to do.”

“Ah…yes.” I sighed.

I can’t really do anything about that as I don’t have control of our family’s duties. Also, I recalled my assumption that maybe my brother is working under Chaser. He was a man who had been rolling his hands and mind with a lot of conspiracies.

I’m sure that even if he’s here, his mind would still wander around all the workloads he had to do. I felt a little sorry for the burden my brother has to face with his job. Furthermore, it somewhat made me sad not to see his face.

I unknowingly twisted my hair, I laid down my eyes and looked at my hair color.

Since I have pink hair, my brother must have a similar color to mine. Iana must be a figure who did not even hear him say her name before. Soon, I made an expression that made my face look creepy.

I tried not to make it obvious, but Lenag right now was gazing at me like a mad dog but soon fixed his gaze. The sound of his tapping fingers goes well with the ticking of the clock.

“This is usually a violation of the rules; however, I can’t help but say I’m responsible for you. Here it is.”

My eyes widened at the sight of what Lenag had taken out.

“It’s mine…?” I asked, so unsure.

Right now, I felt more absurd rather than being joyful. This is too much!

What Lenag brought out was a bouquet. If you try holding it with both hands, it occupies your entire hand. The size itself wasn’t that big, but it’s enough to cover my sight when being carried. But that’s not really the problem here.

The only problem was that inside the bouquet are not real flowers. It was a jewel. The jewel was arranged gorgeously inside the bouquet like a flower… No, wait a minute. Can I bite this?

The center of the gem was a white flower, and the petals seem to be jewels.

I swallowed my saliva while looking at the unusual jewel.

It’s about the size of four fists… Wasn’t this enough to buy a house?

“… my house, it’s not gonna go down, is it?”

“I doubt it. If you’re referring to your family’s affairs, rest assured, your brother’s doing great.”

No, I didn’t ask about that. What I mean is that we’re not going to go bankrupt with this present, right? I wanted to tell him that, but in the end decided not to.

Slowly lowering my eyes, I stared back at the bouquet that my brother had left behind for me. I took out the small letter inside it as my eyes already got tired of staring at the jewels. Not long after, I quickly opened the letter.
