After saying that, Marcelo turned away from the table and walked off.

Miguel watched his brother’s relaxed figure disappear and suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.

What was that about?

All Marcelo did was pat me on the shoulder, yet it felt like I had been cursed. Eerie.

Marcelo, however, couldn’t care less what his two foolish brothers were thinking.

Now that Amelia was finally back home, he wanted to find a chance to talk to her. He knew he had to swallow a bit of pride and make peace.

He figured that if he sincerely admitted his mistakes and promised to stop siding with Gianna, Amelia would surely forgive him.

With that in mind, he strolled toward the back garden of Nygard Estate, only to spot Amelia perched lazily on a thick tree branch.

She was alone, legs swinging casually, one hand playing with her phone, the other typing on her laptop.

“Amelia, why are you sitting so high up? You’ve got your laptop in one hand and your phone in the other–what if you fall?”

Marcelo tried his best to sound gentle and caring.

Amelia, relaxed and perfectly content up in her tree, found his voice utterly annoying.

Her peaceful mood was ruined in an instant.

She ignored him completely, treating him like thin air, and went on with what she was doing.

The reason I climbed up there in the first place is to avoid people like him who wouldn’t stop talking

nonsense.

Didn’t he get the hint?

Marcelo noticed her ignoring him. Normally, he would’ve felt embarrassed and lost face.

But now, he understood why she was acting this way.

He had already decided he was going to coax her, so even if she coldly brushed him off, he

wasn’t about to lose his temper.

“Amelia, can you come down? I have something I want to talk to you about.”

“No. I’m not interested in anything you have to say.”

Amelia was genuinely irritated. Her voice was blunt and dismissive.

“Amelia, do you really have to talk to me like that? I’m still your brother.”

Even though he wanted to reconcile, Marcelo couldn’t completely let go of his pride.

Just one sharp retort from her, and Marcelo couldn’t help but pull the big brother card.

“So what?” Amelia looked down at him from the tree, her gaze calm yet commanding.

Her aura made her look like a queen on her throne.

“I know you’re mad because of Gianna, right? I’ve finally seen through that woman—she’s nothing but a manipulative bitch. You were right to hate her all along.

“I’ve finally realized what kind of person she is. Only those two idiots, and Mom and Dad still haven’t seen through her yet.

“Amelia, let’s make peace. If we work together, we can drive her out of the family. I’ll help you, I promise.”

Marcelo rattled on and on, feeling increasingly confident. He was convinced that Amelia would be moved.

After all, he was taking the initiative to make up with her and even offering to help get revenge on Gianna.

There wasn’t any reason for her to say no.

They were family, after all. They shared the same blood.

When Amelia heard all that, she was surprised for a moment. She hadn’t expected that.

She’d already noticed Marcelo’s attitude toward Gianna had changed lately, and she’d wondered if there was some new scheme behind it.

But hearing him openly admit that he’d seen through Gianna’s fake act confirmed her suspicions.

Heh. Serves you right.

Marcelo noticed her flicker of surprise and mistook it for excitement.

He thought she was finally moved by his words.
