Chapter 228 - Revenge 228: Ask Kyle

"I don't know. Ask her if you want to know." Lannie said, giving her brother a hint to have some time with Anna.

Kyle noticed that hint from his sister and gave her an approving smile. "Didn't know that my sister can be this smart."

"Brother please, I'm always smart, you are just too arrogant to noticed my smartness." Lannie smugly said to her brother.

In the Coleman mansion, the only people who are currently there is Anna and her grandfather. Anna had a choice to go with her brother and mother, but she chose to stay home because she got lazy. As for her grandfather, he said that he wanted to clear his mind; the peace and quiet of the mansion are what he needed for his mind.

"Grandfather, why does Kyle frequently visit you here?" Anna asked her grandfather who is currently sitting in front of her, reading a book.

Since she and her grandfather are all alone in the living room, Anna chose this chance to ask her grandfather why Kyle is frequently visiting him. She always wanted to ask this, but she never had the chance to asked about it, since her grandfather seems to get upset whenever she brought up any Robertson's name.

Marcus slowly looks at Anna and pondered on how should he explain things to her. "He came to report about the findings he has about my brother."

Anna blinked several times before speaking out the words she has on her mind, "Brother? You have a brother? I have another grandfather that I don't know about?" Anna knows that she should be surprised that Kyle is somewhat working for her grandfather, but learning that she has another relative that she doesn't know about is more surprising.

"Yes. I'll tell you more about him some other time, Anna." Now that he is slowly accepting the truth, he feels no pain in telling others about his brother. As a matter of fact, he feels great that he can finally tell the stories about his brother. He has been wanting to do that for a long time now.

"Fine. You can tell me some other time. But you have to tell me why Kyle is working for you, grandfather?" If she can't get answers she wants about her grandfather's brother, then she might as well wants to have the answers to why Kyle is working for her grandfather.

"Well, it's not my position to say," Marcus said hesitantly. In his point of view, Marcus thinks that he is not the right person to tell Anna about Kyle's real motive on searching for answers that he does not have guts to find. It should be Kyle to tell Anna that he is working for him to have permission.

"Not your position to say? What do you mean by that, grandfather?" Anna really thought that she can at least get an answer for Kyle's frequent visit at least. But her grandfather chose to be selfish.

"What I mean is that Kyle should be the one providing you the answer." If his granddaughter is going to act cute just to get answers from him, then it is not going to work.

"I can ask Kyle sure, but I can also ask you." Whether she asked Kyle or her grandfather the answer would be the same. So she thinks that it is better to have the answer now since those two people happen to be in front of her.

"Sweetheart, don't be so hardheaded and listen to me when I say that you should ask Kyle for answers instead. After all, today and the days after that, I want peace and quiet." Marcus made it clear that he will not be answering any questions she has on mind no matter what. He will be not going to place himself in the middle of some teenage romance that might be starting to bloom.

He is at the age where he can't handle such drama of some teenage kids trying to find their way to happiness. He already gave Kyle his permission; everything that Kyle does has nothing to do with him, but of course, if Kyle were to hurt his granddaughter, he will take action; there is no doubt in that.

As Anna and Marcus are currently having their talks, a maid suddenly walks in the living room and said, "Elder master, young miss, Kyle Robertson has come to visit again."

Marcus who heard that was kind of surprise that Kyle visited the mansion. 'It's not his usual day to visit. Is he that excited?' Marcus inwardly commented.

"Then let him come in here, don't let our guest waiting," Anna said in an authoritative tone of voice.

In her past life, Anna treated the maids in their house very nicely, but in the end, they only took advantage of her kindness. But now, she will not act like she was before. She will show them who is the real young of the house, and who must they show respect for. Of course, she is not going to treat them unfairly; she will only show that in this house she has the authority over them and must not take advantage of the kindness she might show them from time to time.

"Yes, young miss." The maid who heard that command from Anna gritted her teeth inwardly. She hated the fact that Anna suddenly acting like an authoritative person, when before she is so kind and was easily deceived by some other maids.

She thought that Anna's sudden attitude was only temporarily, but as the time comes, Anna was never the same. She hated it; she always thought that she could use Anna for her benefit, but she thought wrong.

Now that it is clear as day that Anna is never going to be the same as she was before, the made has been trying to find faults at her, but she couldn't find any and that only anger her.

'You think that just because you are born rich you can order me around like that? Hmph! Let's see about that. I'll make sure to embarrass you later in front of young master Kyle.' The maid inwardly declared as she walks away from Anna and Marcus with a triumphant smile on her face.
