S21 32. Stop Teasing Me

“So, you’re still angry with me?” Philip chuckled. “It’s a waste of me to praise you. It turns out your heart hasn’t melted yet. Should I take some food to your room? You haven’t eaten since lunch, right?”

Barbara’s furrowed brows deepened. “I have no appetite!”

Afraid of the pounding in her chest, she quickly walked away, but Philip was moved to tease her more..

“Hey, why are you following me?” Barbara sped up.

However, Philip’s footsteps were much bigger. Even though his movements were relaxed, he was still beside her.

“To make sure you arrive safely. You haven’t eaten since lunch, right? What if you pass out?”

“I’m not going to faint. Now get out of my way!” Barbara elbowed Philip and then started running.

Seeing that the girl was embarrassed, Philip stopped and laughed. Once their distance was large enough, he chased her with light steps.

“Tsk, why is he still following me?” Barbara grumbled in panic. She ran faster. But, after several steps, she stopped.

A trolley was crossed in front of her bedroom door. Behind that object, two toddlers were whispering.

“Come on, Emily. Knock the door!” Louis pushed her sister forward. However, the little girl stepped back.

“What if Auntie throws a tantrum? She could be still angry with me.” Emily shook her head, banishing the bad imagination from her mind.” You knock the door.”

Louis’ lips pursed. “Why me? You were the one who hit her this morning. And Auntie became like this because of your dress. You have to take responsibility.”

Emily’s brows furrowed. She looked at the door timidly. “How about we knock it together? Come on, Louis. Help me.

Louis puffed out his cheeks. “Okay,” he sighed resignedly, “but you still do the talking.”

“Okay!” Emily nodded curtly. Her hands were clenched in front of her

chest.
