Chapter 649 - Six Hundred And Forty-Nine : Im A Minute Older Than You (2/2)

”Shhh,” Ailee suddenly pressed her finger against her lips, and surprisingly, Allen obeyed her.

”You seem to have forgotten that I'm a minute older than you,” she reminded him and Allen went cold still. Yeah, how could he forget that?

”Good luck,” Ailee simply patted him on the shoulder and left for the dining where the food was already served.

Ailee barely sat down when Neon arrived at the table and coincidentally, their eyes met. A blush crept up her face and she instantly took her eyes away.

This was simply outrageous, she had lived with Neon for almost eleven years and witnessed him grow from a boy into the man he is today. This was not the first time she had seen Neon bare and yet today's encounter bothered her. But then, this was the first time she noticed he was hot. Whoever had him as a boyfriend in the future was quite lucky.

Hopefully, her brother Allen doesn't steal away his girlfriend as well.

But then, thinking of that now, was that the reason he was still single? Could Allen be the reason Neon hadn't thought of having a girlfriend? Because he was afraid of his girlfriend falling for his brother? Or had his love interest fallen for Allen's charm by chance?

No, Ailee shook her head in thought. If Allen had somehow seduced his love interest, both of them would have come to blows. Her brothers were good at expressing their feelings with some punches to the face. It was until recently that they somehow calmed down as if they came to a truce. In the past, they did more punching than talking.

Surprisingly, even with their fights, both were good with each other? No, the relationship between Allen and Neon was somehow strange. She couldn't decipher that.

Everyone else sat down and Ailee pretended as nothing happened. Neon did the same as well and thankfully couldn't read the spiraling thoughts in her mind.

As usual, Mom sat with Elsa and Diego on either side of her while Niklaus sat with Ella beside him. They had a good sense to separate Elsa and Ella even at the table because both together were a formidable team compared when with their brother. If both Elsa and Ella were acids, then Diego was water, their diluter.

Reina spends more time serving the triplets by her side than herself. The triplets were still kids - even though they were ten years old - and she had to care for them properly - thankfully Ailee didn't hear those thoughts of hers.

”By the way,” Reina informed Niklaus whose attention was also on his daughter, Ella.

”Mmm,” He said, hinting that he was all ears.

”Neon would be on my team this season,” she announced to the others who hadn't heard the news aka @ Allen the great.

”Is that so?” Niklaus asked Neon to be precise.

”Mother asked me to help her and I did,” He said, yet added, ”That's the least I can do for having taken care of me all these years,” He hinted that he wasn't exactly family and everyone's expression shifted.

Well, not exactly all, since Allen looked undisturbed, eating his food and the triplets who had no idea of the history.
