Chapter 54 Mel Is My Only Sister Finished Aaron and Spencer were taken aback by Gordon's disregard, seemingly unafraid of being fired.
There was a sense that something wasn't quite right, but one couldn't pinpoint exactly what was amiss. Facing the phone that Gordon had handed over, the two of them were utterly speechless.
"I gave you both an opportunity," Gordon said. "Perhaps you guys should spend more treading. Learn from the books how to treat your own sister and how to uphold familial bonds. If you continue behaving this way as older brothers, you'll regret it deeply one day." With that, Gordon then held his phone up to his car.
As desired, he heard a well-done from Matthew.
Satisfied, he hung up the phone.
Aurelia watched Aaron and Spencer in their pitiful state, feeling a sense of satisfaction. They had brought this upon themselves.
"Allowto take my leave first. Thank you for today, Mr. Zeller. I'll treat you to a meal another day," Aurelia said to Gordon before getting into the car.
"Sure!" With a sense of honor, Gordon nodded. Well, I happen to have a few questions to ask! Gordon's parents had a family heirloom, the authenticity of which was uncertain. People around him claimed it was a replica from that era. He didn't trust others to appraise it, but when Aurelia was the one. doing the appraisal, he could rest easy.
Aaron and Spencer watched, wide-eyed, as Aurelia walked away.
The two were consumed by pain.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTo avoid embarrassment, they couldn't possibly let the matter escalate.
Gordon went straight across the street.
The two brothers exchanged glances, and finally, Spencer uttered through gritted teeth, "Aurelia will definitely regret this. She used to fawn overso much. Wasn't it all just to getto acknowledge her? Now she's putting on this act. She's definitely trying to take a different approach to draw our attention. Many scripts are written this way." "It doesn't seem quite right to me. Her relationship with Gordon doesn't appear to be what Dad described." Aaron frowned, a heavy, indescribable feeling settling in his heart.
Spencer said emphatically, "No matter what, I only acknowledge Mel. Mel is my only sister!" Across the road, in the car, Gordon got in and said, “Mr. Quigley, Ms. Shaw is fine." "All right." Matthew exuded an aura of coldness, and one could see the gloom that was solidified between his brows and eyes.
Chapter 54 Mel Is My Only Sister family on the yacht?" Finished A shadow passed over Matthew's eyes. It was clear he disliked such social gatherings. "Return to Starry Sea Mansion." Aurelia returned to Starry Sea Mansion before he did, As soon as she entered, she received a Whatmessage from Mabel.
Mabel knew that she had taken on a job to restore ancient paintings, so she asked Aurelia if she had any tafter work, or if she had any other plans.
Aurelia replied: Grandma, I'm able to get off work at four o'clock tomorrow.
Mabel quickly responded: Elijah has been urgingto bring you to his house as soon as possible. So, I'll arrange for the driver to pick you up tomorrow, and then we'll go to Elijah's house together.
Aurelia: All right, Grandma. See you tomorrow.
A lot of things had been going on at her end, so she was quite busy. Consequently, she almost forgot about her promise to Elijah at the hospital.
After she put down her bag, she went to the kitchen.
After messing around in the bar for a while, she was already hungry.
Upon his return, Matthew saw Aurelia was busy in the kitchen.
The enticing aroma of food wafted out from the kitchen.
From the moment he first saw her, he knew she was beautiful, the kind that stood out in a crowd. Her busyness in the kitchen added a touch of gentleness to her, a softness that could make anyone shed their weariness.
Aurelia's eyes softened when she saw Matthew standing in front of the kitchen door. "I've made a couple of simple dishes. Would you like to join me?" "All right.
Perhaps it was upon returning hthat Matthew felt his headache symptoms significantly alleviated as if his entire being had somewhat relaxed.
At the social gathering that evening, he had a few drinks. He barely touched his food, yet he didn't feel hungry. However, upon seeing Aurelia's radiant and charming smile, he suddenly felt a pang of hunger.
After going upstairs to change his clothes, he cdown to find two dishes and two bowls of pasta already served on the dining table.
There was also a plate of garden/salad and a plate of honey-glazed ribs.
Though they were just ordinary home-cooked dishes, she made them with a perfect balance of color, aroma, and flavor.
"Mr. Quigley, thank you for today," Aurelia uttered in gratitude the moment she sat down.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmChapter 54 Melts My Only Sister Finished "It was a simple task. There's no need for such formality" Matthew heard how she addressed him and noticed Aurelia's distant gratitude toward him. He felt a bit uncomfortable. However, he didn't pay much attention to it. "I should be the one thanking you, as I often enjoy the meals you prepare" Aurelia laughed. "Let's eat before our food gets cold. If we keep on exchanging pleasantries and saying thank you, our meal will be cold." "All right." Matthew rarely ate vegetables, but that day, he made an exception and ate nearly half a plate. The ordinarily bland greens, under Aurelia's culinary skills, had becquite delicious.
"After breakfast tomorrow, I'll drop you off at work. When you finish work, the driver will pick up Grandma first, then cfor you," Matthew said after he had finished his meal.
"Thank you." Aurelia nodded.
Suddenly, an idea struck her. She got up to find her bag, from which she pulled out a large sack of items. Upon closer inspection, one could see that the large sack was filled with small packets of herbal tea bags. "I found a traditional medicine shop and got them to prepare these herbal tea bags. They're the sas the ones you've been drinking these past few days. I've adjusted a few ingredients inside, which should be beneficial for your sleep." Matthew looked at the herbal tea bags handed over by Aurelia, a flicker of doubt shimmering in his dark eyes. Is she being nice to me?
"It's perfect that I'll be able to see Grandma tomorrow. I've also om prepared smedicinal foot soak ared spackets for her to take back to the Quigley residence," Aurelia said as she began to clear away the dishes. Matthew stood up. "I'll do the dishes." "You don't have to do it today. Lethandle it. You looked a bit off earlier. Are you having a headache again?" Aurelia immediately took the dishes and forks to the kitchen.
Only two people were dining, and there weren't many bowls or forks. It wouldn't take her a long tto finish washing..
Matthew was somewhat taken aback, probably because he didn't expect Aurelia to be so observant, noticing his condition that day. "It's probably because I had sdrinks last night." Indeed, drinking alcohol could easily lead to a headache, and after that, Aurelia didn't say anything more.
Upon seeing Aurelia busily washing dishes in the kitchen, Matthew leaned back on the couch.
After spending sttogether, the two had becquite close to each other.
However, Matthew seemed somewhat lost in thought as he stared at the herbal tea bags set aside.
After an indeterminate amount of thad passed, he heard someone speaking beside him. However, he couldn't quite catch what was said, so he turned his head to look at Aurelia.
Aurelia repeated, "Do you needto massage your head?" Matthew suddenly realized something, his expression instantly turning cold. “I helped you today because of Grandma. Don't read too much into it." Chapter 54 Mel is My Only Sister Finished
"Did Mr. Quigley overthink things? I only asked because you looked unwell, perhaps due to a severe headache. Since you don't need help, it works out well because I was just about to head back to rest." Aurelia huffed and also felt a bit regretful. I was casting pearls before swine! I just let him suffer to death. Had it not been for Old Mrs. Quigley tellingthat he, despite appearing somewhat difficult to get along with on the surface, was actually a decent person, I wouldn't have gone out of my way. Morroner, Old Mrs. Quigley hoped that I could lend a hand to Matthew. If I could help improve his headache situation, that would be even better. That way, Old Mrs. Quigley could finally relax her heart and not worry so much about Matthew. Reborn for Revenge
