Chapter 768 - Seven Hundred And Sixty-eight: Face Her Fears (1/2)

The third point of view :

”That would be so wonderful,” Allen joked only to receive an intense glare from his sister. This wasn't funny at all.

”Well,” Allen went on and thankfully, he was a lot more serious this time, ”It would be hard on mother and also not hard at the same time,”

”What do you mean?” Ailee was confused by his statement.

”Our mother took in Neon while Jennifer was on trial in the past. Jennifer tried to hurt her and yet she still accepted Neon as her own because Neon is not Jennifer. Mother loves him whether she likes it or not. The only thing we can do is pray that the love is sufficient enough for her to accept the both of you. Moreover, Jennifer did save our lives, that's enough for some brownie points, don't you think so?”Allen had a teasing smile on his face as he said that.

”Thanks for your useful advice,” Ailee said with heavy sarcasm.

”No, let's be real here, Ailee,” Allen faced her with a stern expression, ”If you really want Neon, then you should go after him. Look at me...” He gestured to himself, ”I'm the black sheep of the family, be like me and be free! Just dump the good girl side - ”

”Embrace evil and be free?” Ailee completed with a straight face.

”That too,” He grinned at her.

Ailee rolled her eyes. What was she thinking expecting advice from someone like her brother? He was the worst role model mankind has ever seen.

Allen shrugged, ”I'm just saying that you should stop meeting up to everyone's expectations and think of your happiness. Be selfish for once even if it would break our parent's heart,”

”You know what?” Ailee threw her hands up in the air, ”I don't even like Neon!”

Allen was just about to oppose that claim when she beat him to it, ”Even if I have such feelings for him, Neon is gone! Nothing is going to happen between us and fate has designed it that way, period!”

”Fine, think whatever you want” Allen gave up on her. He has done his best, the rest depended on her.

”I'll just have to call and inform our parents that you're back in the living,”

Ailee should have prevented her brother from making that call because she was not prepared for the overwhelming loving kindness she received later.
