Chapter 240 - Revenge 241: He Is The Reason Why

"Anna, did you say something?" Aaron asked. For a while now, he has been wondering why his sister is unusually quiet in today's dinner. Usually, she is the first one to open up a conversation, but today, she's quiet.

Slightly startled Anna looks at her brother, "N-no, I did not say anything." She lied. She did not want her brother to know that she is troubled with something that had happened earlier. Looking at the plate in front of her, she felt that she just wasted food. The food that is in front of her is not even half the portion when she got her plate.

Looking at the plate in front of his sister, Aaron asked her in a worried tone, "Are you not feeling good? Did the medicine you took is making feel sick or something?" For a while now, he noticed that Anna barely even touched her food, and that is making him worried.

Anna looks like she doesn't have any appetite and this kind of situation is strange.

"It's not that. I don't have any appetite today." Her words were like a thunderbolt that shocks that the rest of the people who heard her. Her having no appetite is a piece of shocking news.

They all look at her trying to figure out if she is joking around with them, but there is no sign that she is joking around. 'Something's wrong.' They all inwardly commented.

Feeling uncomfortable with the stares of her family, Anna faked a cough and said, "I think it's already late, so I'm gonna excuse myself." After bidding the rest of the family to have a nice evening, Anna left the dining room in a hurry.

When Anna left the dining room, the first one to speak is Aaron, "Grandpa, besides the maid that harmed my sister, what else happened today?" Aaron felt that something must have happened to his sister earlier beside the event with the maid. 'There is something more to the story.' Aaron commented inwardly.

"Well, Kyle visited today, and he stayed with your sister until she fell asleep." Marcus purposely told Aaron and Mary everything. He wants to see what kind of reaction will they have once they knew that he let Kyle enter Anna's room, and it was just the two of them together for quite a while.

"You let Kyle enter my daughter's room?" Mary is quite surprised to know that Marcus actually let Kyle enter her daughter's room. At first, Marcus clearly rejects Kyle's existence in Anna's life, and he does not want him to get anywhere near Anna. But as time passes by, Kyle frequently visits the mansion, and now, he enters Anna's room with Marcus' permission.

"Yes. Is there a problem with that?" Marcus asked as if what happened earlier with Anna and Kyle is like a normal thing in this mansion now.

"Grandfather, of course, there is a problem, you let a man enter my sister's room! That's a big no-no, grandfather." Now Aaron realized the real reason behind Lannie's intention for keeping in the mall all day. She was helping her brother! How can he not realized such obvious facts?!

Ever since from day one, Lannie has been full-on support to her brother on pursuing his sister. 'Those siblings sure are annoying.'

"Aaron don't be like that. Your sister needs a man in her life too, you know?" Since Marcus already decided not to involve himself in teenage love, it also means that he won't let his grandson ruin everything that his granddaughter should experience in her youth. His grandchildren should not just focus on their family and the organization, they should also focus on the things that normal teenagers would do.

Having a crush on someone and go having fun is what all teenagers should experience, especially the teenager who is like his grandchildren. Anna's friends are all trying to live up to the legacy of their parents. He would not say that it is a bad thing, but focusing on that will not make them happy.

In Anna's room, Anna lays down on her bed and stared at the ceiling. At this moment, there is only one person who is invading her mind, and it is Kyle. No matter what tricks she uses just to distract herself from thinking about him, it won't work. She even thought that something is wrong with her, but she knows too well that something is not wrong with her.

She knows exactly what is happening, but she does not want to admit it.

'Just you wait, Anna. I'll have you for sure.' Those are the words that keep repeating in her mind. When she heard it, she was half asleep at that time, she is not sure if she heard it correct or not. Anna is even contemplating on whether should she ask Lannie for Kyle's phone number so that she can ask Kyle herself. But she stopped herself from doing that because she doesn't want Kyle to think that she is being delusional.

"Arrghh!!! This is all your fault! Why are you doing this to me!"

Anna would rather believe that she is hearing things because of the medicine that was injected to her earlier, but there is a side of him that badly wants to believe that is what she heard.

"This can't be. I thought that I have already build up a wall on that." Anna muttered to herself. Anna is having a hard time getting her thoughts together ever since she woke up. The person she blames for all this is Kyle. He is the reason why she is not thinking straight.

Slowly but surely, Anna is starting to realize the reason why she is like this. As she starts to realize this, her face is starting to get red. She truly does not want to believe that the wall she built is starting to crumble because of a man she talked to for the whole day in this very room of hers.
