The Miraculous Simone Gray

Chapter 25 He Finally Understood.
Aaron realized that engaging in verbal disputes with Zac and Simone was a surefire way to invite trouble. They countered his
comments every time, which frustrated him, mainly because Simone consistently took Zac’s side. Aaron began to question if she
genuinely considered him her brother. The more he dwelled on this, the more discomfort and jealousy grew within him. After all,
she was his sister, not Zac’s. As he directed his gaze towards Zac, a flicker of hostility became apparent on his face.
Furthermore, a previous incident concerning slots had already created a rift between them. This made Aaron wonder whether
Zac had ulterior motives to separate his sister from him. When Aaron locked eyes with Simone, her demeanor appeared cold.
Aaron realized that this situation couldn’t continue. He couldn’t allow Zac to take his sister away. He needed to find a way to
bring her back.
Regarding the request from the four brothers to teach her a lesson and make her realize her mistake, he could temporarily set
that aside. Being her brother, allowing her to win for once didn’t appear to be a significant matter. It was a means to mend their
relationship and avoid giving Zac the satisfaction of victory. With this in mind, he turned to her and asked in a gentler tone, “Are
you cooking this afternoon?” Even though Jodie had recently started cooking, he still believed Simone’s culinary skills were
superior.
Simone glanced at Aaron and replied, “Someone invited us for a meal, so I’m not cooking.”
This left him speechless. He had initially planned to approach her while she was cooking to help mend the relationship.
On the side, Zac noticed Aaron’s attitude toward Simone was slightly off. She was generally easygoing. but there was a lingering
resentment toward Aaron and Jodie. Suddenly, it struck Zac that the Gray Family had found their long–lost daughter, yet they
hadn’t disclosed her identity publicly or included her in social gatherings. What perplexed him was that they still treated their
adopted daughter as the family’s heiress.
When he recalled the past few days of interaction between the Gray siblings and Simone, he suspected she might be the long–
lost daughter the Gray Family had found. It seemed like they mistreated her, which led her to distance herself from the Gray
siblings and potentially harbor a sense of aversion toward them. At this moment, Zac felt like he finally understood.
This realization further deepened Zac’s dislike for Aaron and Jodie. He pondered, “If Simone wants to distance herself from
them, why do they keep insisting on approaching her? They’re so annoying.”

He smiled smugly at Aaron and said, “Don’t worry: I’ll take pictures of the meal and share them in the group chat when we eat.
Then, you’ll know what you’re missing.”
Aaron was left speechless, thinking. “Who the hell wants to see what you’re eating? That’s just masochistic.” He snickered
sarcastically and said, “Well, thank you.”
With a grin, Zac responded, “You’re welcome. I’ll satisfy your curiosity since you seem to enjoy it.”
Aaron was at a loss for words, thinking, “This guy is as annoying as ever.” “That’s unnecessary; it’s too much trouble,” he
refused.
Nevertheless, Zac happily said, “No worries, it’s not troublesome.”

Simone observed Aaron’s efforts to suppress his irritation and thought he deserved it. She found even more endearing how
Just as they arranged the food on the table and hung the meat in a basket over the well, Deuce came met to invite the four of
them to dinner at his home.
In gratitude for waving the children’s lives, Deuce’s family had explicitly gone to town to purchase chicken, dack, and fish,
preparing a hearty home–cooked meal.
Before they began eating. Zac snapped a photo with his phone and shared it in the group chat.

On the other side, Jodie was responsible for washing and chopping vegetables to showcase her efforts. She had put a lot of
work into preparing four dishes and one soup, presenting them in an aesthetically pleasing manner.
The other three each took a bite of the dishes, finding them edible but rather ordinary in flavor. Leyla thought the food wasn’t as
good as the meals they had on set.
Their phones chimed with notifications, and they opened the group chat to find Zac’s shared photo. It displayed a table filled with
various dishes, and although it lacked the presentation of a restaurant, the food looked delicious.
All four of them, including Jodie, suddenly lost their appetites. However, being hungry from a long day’s work, they had no choice
but to continue eating.
Moments later, more notifications arrived. They clicked on them almost masochistically, only to see Zac taking a selfie while
enjoying a drumstick. The selfie was accompanied by a message. This drumstick is roasted to perfection. It’s so good!”
After a while, he deliberately sent pictures of grilled shrimp and deep–fried pork ribs with a message.
These shrimps are grilled to perfection and have a delightful sweetness. Delicious!
“First time trying oregano pork ribs. Yum!‘
Simone also chimed in, I love the grilled shrimp dish. It’s so sweet!”
Keira added, I like the oregano pork ribs. They’re so aromatic.
Eric replied. I prefer the bacon–wrapped meatloaf. It’s better than anything I’ve ever had.
At this point, Aaron and the others were lost for words. They wanted to vent their frustration to the other group.
Aaron couldn’t hold on any longer and said, “I want to block Zac.”
Leon chimed in, “I’m kind of thinking the same.”
However, Jodie and Leyla remained silent, wearing only a smile. After all, Zac was a top–tier celebrity. Speaking out like this
during the livestream might incur criticism from his devoted fans.
Just then, Aaron stretched his finger to the setting button. “Then, I’ll just block him.”

But Jodie, sitting beside him, advised. “Don’t do it, Aaron. Blocking him might prove inconvenient if something important comes
up. Besides, I enjoy seeing Mr. Turner’s daily posts about delicious food.” In truth, she said this to earn favor with Zac’s fans in
the livestream.
After hearing her words, he had to stop his actions. Although he wasn’t too happy about it in his heart, on the surface, he still
habitually showed an indulgent smile. “Okay, I’ll go with what you say.”
Leyla glanced down at her food, pursing her lips, and pondered, “One is hypocritical, and the other is too unconditionally doting.”
She then wondered, “If I were dating Aaron, who would be more important to him: me or his sister? If both Jodie and I were
drowning, he would probably jump in to save Jodie.” With these thoughts, she suddenly felt disconnected, and her affection for
Aaron diminished.
Since Leon was aware of Aaron and Jodie’s relationship, he didn’t find it strange at all.
During the live chat, fans of the sibling duo praised their sweetness and affection. On the other hand, Jodie didn’t leave a
favorable impression on Zac’s fans.
“If he wants to block, let him block. Zachy has never been afraid of being blocked.”
“With Zachy’s way of speaking, who knows how many people have blocked him? One more by Aaron won’t make a difference.”
“There’s no need for Jojo to play peacemaker here.”
From that point on, the comments in the live chat took a different turn.
“I suddenly realized Aaron is very devoted to Jojo, but she doesn’t seem to care much about him.”
“I noticed that a long time ago. Aaron and Zac don’t seem to get along, but Jojo doesn’t support her brother.”
“The key is that Zac has criticized Jojo several times before.”
“If it were me, I wouldn’t be so forgiving
“So, is Jojo forgiving or just pretending?”
“I feel sorry for Aero. He spoils his sister so much, but she only seems to take advantage of his love and doesn’t truly support
him.”

“Aero does everything for her, but she has never defended him.”
“Every time, she just wants to play peacemaker and appear kind.”
“Is her goal to become Santa Maria?”
Previously, Simone had anonymously paid for sock puppets to manipulate the narrative at the right moment. As expected,
Aaron’s fans started to feel the same way when the sock puppets struck the right chord. As a result, many of Aaron’s fans
became dissatisfied with Jodie.
