After I left, the twin Alphas went crazy novel Chapter 185

Anthony’s brows furrowed, disbelief evident on his face. “Are you saying my brother is picking on you?”

Alina nodded vigorously, stepping closer to Anthony and clutching his arm for effect. “Yes! They just won’t stop bullying me!” She glanced at Lirian and me, hiding behind Anthony like a damsel in distress.

Anthony’s patience snapped. Without hesitation, he grabbed her arm firmly, lifting her slightly off balance. His voice was sharp and commanding, a stark contrast to his usual gentle tone. “You’d better explain. What exactly did you do to my brother and sister-in-law?”

Alina’s eyes widened in shock. “I didn’t do anything! I swear!” she stammered, but her protests lacked conviction.

Anthony’s gaze turned cold. “If Lirian called me here, it’s because you caused trouble. Don’t even think of fooling me.”

Her charade faltered under Anthony’s unrelenting stare. “I… I didn’t mean to upset them,” she muttered, trying to salvage her act.

Lirian, however, wasn’t one to let things slide. He crossed his arms, his voice calm but firm. “She came here claiming she was doing Sofia a favor by allowing her to invest in their project. She also said that you were her boyfriend and warned us not to offend you. I’d really like to know what would happen if we did offend you.”

Anthony froze, his expression tightening. He turned to Alina, who was looking anywhere but at him. The weight of her actions hit him, and he sighed deeply, rubbing the back of his neck. “Brother, I swear, she’s just an online friend. We’ve only played games together. She’s not my girlfriend.”

Alina’s face turned crimson, her lips parting in shock. “Anthony! How can you say that?” she blurted out, her voice shrill with indignation.

Anthony shot her a glare, his tone icy. “How about you stop talking before you dig yourself an even deeper hole?”

Alina shrank back, stunned into silence.

I decided to step in, my voice calm but firm. “Anthony, if she really is your girlfriend, you need to talk to her. I don’t have an issue with you dating, but her dismissive attitude is unacceptable.”
