SWNOVELS Chapter 430
Chapter 430 Bad Impression
So in Joe's mind, Aaron and I rushed back from Berlin to celebrate the festival with our parents, Just because we coveted the position of inheriting the Morris Group
No, not only did he feel that we coveted the position of the heir, but he also believed that it was me who was instigating the relationship between the brothers and making Aaron compete with him for the inheritance
So salty! Are the hearts of these wealthy young masters really as small as needle eyes?
I glared at Joe fiercely and didn't bother to be polite to him anymore. "You'll be disappointed, I have no interest in getting my husband involved
in any inheritance dispute. We're living well in Germany, and TWH 1s running smoothly
Besides, Aaron earns enough money for us to live for hundreds of thousands of years! I don't have time to scheme against others. If you want to practice how to fight for an inheritance, it would be more convenient and quicker for you to find a shareholder in the company."
Damn it, it seems that even the intelligence from Colston may not be very accurate. He said that Aaron's brother is around the same age as him, but he is the only person in this family who has been good to him. Now that it involves interests, this so-called good brother has quickly shown his cunning fox tail. It's truly a disgusting family!
I sympathized with Aaron in my mind while giving Joe a fierce look, firmly telling him that I would not be easily threatened by him: "After
Christmas, we will leave New York, but I hope you understand that it 1s not because of your filthy speculations, but because it was our original plan."
"You really didn't understand what it means to be tactful."
Joe seemed somewhat surprised by my attitude
After casting a glance at me for a while, he let out a cold laugh
"You weren't exactly gentle with me either," I retorted in the same tone as him, glancing at the three people playing downstairs and deliberately lowering my voice. "Aaron and I are the same kind of people. We never had a warm upbringing; our parents never taught us to be subtle. So I got used to being straightforward, that's the only way for others to accurately understand what we want."
Since Joe no longer insisted, I didn't need to make a scene. However, I had to make it clear what needed to be said to avoid any further misunderstandings: "So, big brother, I hope you stop trying to figure us out on your own. Aaron and I truly have no interest in this place, and you shouldn't say anything that ruins the atmosphere like you did just now. Don't push me to flip the table in front of the whole family during the happiest time."
In the end, I spoke in a low voice, but I also made sure that every word I said fell clearly into Joe's ears
Joe's face changed and changed again as if he wanted to say something more. However, I had already finished speaking and there was no need to continue arguing with him. So, before he could speak again, I turned aside and left from beside the railing of the stairs
Although I wasn't very surprised by what happened today in such a family atmosphere, there was still a slight discrepancy in my heart due to my previous idealized image of Joe
His position in my heart was instantly discounted, no longer the only person who cared about Aaron in Colston's words, or rather, the only thing he cared about was his own interests. I shouldn't have had any expectations for anyone in this family to begin with
Aaron seemed to be completely unaware of his brother's true character. As everyone was preparing the Christmas dinner, he casually set aside a cup of hot mulled wine that hadn't been flavored with cinnamon. He softly explained to me as I looked on, "This one is for Joe, he really dislikes the taste of cinnamon. The rest of us can add spices to ours."
I clicked my tongue and quickly avoided Aaron's gaze as he looked at me in confusion. I

didn't say much and left the glass of red wine for him
Actually, I really wanted to tell him about what happened on the stairs this morning, but after thinking about it, I couldn't bear to ruin the image of being a brother in Aaron's mind
After all, we just came back for a holiday. I have already explained everything to Joe today, so he shouldn't be foolish enough to question Aaron
again. It would be fine if this matter is just left behind like this
After Christmas was over, our family returned to Berlin. There might not be any chance to meet Joe for the rest of the year, so why should I ruin the little warmth that still remained in Aaron's heart?
In this home, there was still someone to miss, and it wasn't a bad thing
But the smoother my plan went, the more the situation exceeded my expectations
Just as I was finally about to finish this Christmas holiday and pack my bags to return to Berlin, the night before, old Morris interrupted our farewell to everyone at the dinner table
"Olive, you need to cancel the return flight ticket. I have already hired the most professional childcare teachers for Molly and Jasmin. From now on, you will stay in New York. Aaron will start working at the Morris Group headquarters next Monday as the project manager for our latest collaboration with the local construction company in the industrial park."
