When Anthony spoke, a flecting hint of sharpness glinted in Stephanie’s eyes, swiftly masked as she looked up again, returning to her usual innocent demeanour.

Xavier, Anthony, please don’t fight because of me. If copying the family rules can cheer up Anthony, then I’ll do it. I’m just a bit weak lately, so it might take me some time.”

Seeing her maturity, Xavier felt even more concerned. “Stephanic

Anthony, on the other hand, shrugged. “Oh? Really? I don’t buy it!”

Stephanie was angry.

Anthony!

It doesn’t matter. Once she got what she wanted, Anthony would be the first one she threw away!

She hadn’t fully gotten what she wanted and hadn’t firmly established herself in the Burnetts, so she couldn’t afford to act rashly!

Her brothers‘ affection for her had already started to shift. It was because she was reborn a bit late, and many things weren’t under control in time. But it was okay. Philip still called the shots. As long as she kept her grandpa’s favour, even Jordan wouldn’t dare to openly do anything to her.

Just now, Anthony got it half right. It was true she was joining the worship because the Tates would be there, but it was not just about George.

Earlier, she had underestimated things and actually offended Andrew. This time, she was going to mend. fences because, besides her own grandpa, the Tates were also valuable backers.

And there was something even more crucial. She remembered that Master Karuna would lead this ancestral ritual. He was a highly respected master, admired by both families‘ grandfathers. If she can win his favour and become his apprentice, both grandfathers will see her differently, which would make her path ahead much smoother.

In the previous life before the Burnetts went bankrupt, she had tried to please Philip by collecting many habits of Master Karuna and studying numerous Buddhist scriptures. Unexpectedly, these efforts were coming in handy this time.

So, she felt very confident.

This time, what she wanted wasn’t just about the Burnetts!

Philip timely interrupted their bickering, tapping his cane on the floor. “Enough, enough! Bickering early in the morning gives me a headache.

“What time is it already? Still not going downstairs and making the family wait. Really spoiled. Go wake that girl up! Philip exclaimed irritably.

The servant nodded quickly. “Yes.”
