The Miraculous Simone Gray by Opal Reese novel Chapter 16

The Heiress’ Return & Revenge 54% Chapter 16 You Started It Simone’s team froze when Aaron made that demand. They turned to Simone, realizing from Aaron’s tone that he seemed familiar with her and was even being imperious. Speechless, Simone stared at Aaron. “That’s not how you ask someone for help. What makes you think you can make me cook for you?” Aaron fell silent once more. “I…” He wanted to say, ‘because I’m your brother,’ but when he caught the icy look in Simone’s eyes, he couldn’t say anything. Before they came on this show, Jodie had warned. him not to reveal their connection to Simone, just in case she got triggered and caused trouble.

 

 

That would be difficult to handle. Simone sneered. “Aaron, if your brain isn’t functioning, I suggest you get it replaced. I am not your servant.” Zac could see that Simone strongly disliked Aaron. Time to support my teammate. He raised an eyebrow at Aaron. “Well, someone has no shame. Simone is not on your team, and she doesn’t owe you anything. Why should she help you cook?” Just then, Aaron’s team emerged from the kitchen. Jodie looked apologetically at Zac. “I’m sorry. I hurt my hand while cooking. Aaron got worried, so he asked Simone for help.” She extended her right hand, showing a few red spots, and then looked at Simone. “Aaron was only concerned about me. Please don’t be angry with him.” Simone knew Jodie was trying to show how much Aaron cared about her, hoping to provoke her into saying something she shouldn’t. Simone raised an eyebrow. “Don’t flaunt your sibling love to me. If he truly cared, he would have cooked for you.

 

 

He shouldn’t have come to me. All I did was refuse his demand, and then you suddenly appeared, telling me to leave him alone because he was just worried about you.” Deliberately, she added, “And I have severed all ties with you. You have no grounds to morally manipulate me.” Jodie couldn’t believe Simone remained calm. She should have gotten angry and cursed at me. She quickly shook her head. “I’m not morally manipulating you or anything.” Simone’s last statement worried her. She feared Simone might reveal their relationship to everyone. Since Simone had cut off all ties with the family, Jodie hoped Simone would never get involved with the Grays again. I am Aaron’s only sister. She quickly took hold of Aaron’s arm. “Aaron, my hand is much better now. I ran it under cold water. I can continue cooking. You don’t need to ask anyone for help.” Aaron wanted to say something. He couldn’t tolerate Simone’s attitude. She said my brain isn’t functioning? And she claims that Jodie is morally manipulating her? It’s not like she hasn’t cooked for us. She even made herbal soups just to win us over. He held back because Jodie was shaking her head at him, and he scoffed. “I see someone thinks they’re too good for me now.” Simone replied, “Yes, I do. We are not even acquaintances, so please don’t act like you own me next time.” It wasn’t the right time to reveal their relationship. If she broke the news herself, it would appear as if she were seeking sympathy, someone who still cared about the Grays. However, if someone discovered it after some investigation, it would have a different impact. The latter would make her seem like a person deserving of sympathy due to her troubled past. She didn’t need their sympathy, but she wouldn’t reject it either. Aaron’s face fell. “Do not forget who you are, Simone. Know your place.” 1/3 Simone rolled her eyes. “You should really get a new brain.”
