Chapter 11: Realising His Mistakes
Aaron was furious with her, he refused to talk to her. She had to coax him with apologies and flowery words before he forgave her.
"You have no idea how worried I was! Father would beat me up if something happened to you."
"Is that the only reason you were worried?" Adeline's expression quickly turned pouty.
Immediately the situation flipped, Adeline who was doing all the cajoling was now being coaxed by her brother.
"Of course, not! You're my little sister, I don't want you getting lost."
"..."
She secretly admitted to herself she loved being treated this way. The world seemed far more colourful. When she looked back on her previous life she would describe it as bleak. Watching her father come to pick them up made her smile more than she ever did in her past life. Her father who always put on a stoic expression softened immediately upon spotting his children.
He picked Adeline up immediately and carefully took Aaron's hand. He had a chat with the Emperor which really opened his eyes. Aaron who was not used to his father being affectionate this way was startled.
He looked up and saw his father's expression, he had a small smile on his face while his sister smiled ear to ear. She urged him to hold his hand.
