Chapter 9: A new sister
The boy's name was Jayson, and he was Adrian's younger brother. He was the son of his father's second wife, Celeste Thorne and was the baby of the family. Everyone loved him and always doted on him.
Even Adrian's mother, the first wife, loved him and always treated him like her own son, which was rare in those aristocratic households.
Both wives did not discriminate between them and treated both of them fairly. Jayson loved copying Adrian and would try to do everything that Adrian did. He followed him almost everywhere whilst trying to get Adrian to play with him at all times.
He even threw a tantrum when he found out that Adrian was going to the mountains and he couldn't follow him. That was how much he loved his big brother.
Adrian also adored his younger brother and was the only one who could pacify him when he was making a fuss. He promised to be back soon and he would bring him a gift from the mountains.
As both brothers were hugging, a small head poked out from the side of the bed where it had been hiding.
Because of the glare from the sun, it still couldn't see the face of the person who walked in clearly.
"Big brother Jayson, who is that?" A tiny voice came out of the small face as it asked.
It was an adorable little girl who was only about nine years of age. She was wearing a little green dress that made her look even cuter. She walked out and asked while wearing an inquisitive look on her face. When Adrian heard the voice, his mind was filled with question marks.
