Chapter 433 I Need to Escape!
“The Andersons?” Maya looked slightly flustered. Although the Anderson and Dahlen Families were in different industries, both families were considered large and powerful families in Tissote. In fact, the Andersons had a longer history than the Dahlens.
After all, the Andersons had a background in medicine—they had saved countless patients’ lives. Through their services, they managed to develop firm connections with many individuals in society. Not every family had the ability to do such a thing. If the Dahlen Family actually got on the Andersons’ bad side, they would definitely be defeated by the Andersons. Maya’s anger died down at that thought.
A few minutes later, they chased Maya out of the house. Maya stared at the front entrance as she howled at the top of her lungs. “Just you wait, Elise!”
Meanwhile, Tania, who had witnessed the entire scene, carefully lifted her legs to tiptoe to the door. I can’t stay here any longer—I need to escape now! It took her a great deal of effort to get to the door, but Elise’s voice rang beside her ear at that moment. “Where are you going, Tania?”
Once Elise spoke, everyone shifted their gaze to Tania. They all noticed Tania’s right leg hanging in the middle of the air as she had been about to take another step toward the door. A look of utter embarrassment spread across Tania’s face as she helplessly put her leg back onto the ground. She turned around to come face-to-face with Elise. “I’m not going anywhere,” Tania said without looking into Elise’s eyes. “I… I thought I’d go back next door to have my meal. Haha… I shouldn’t waste food, should I?” she stuttered.
Even Tania didn’t trust her own lame excuse. She engaged her facial muscles and forced a smile just to reduce the awkwardness in the atmosphere. “Hmm. I didn’t know the young lady of the Anderson Family was such a thrifty person,” Claude teased playfully. Tania bit her lip as she shot him a glare. Why can’t this man learn how to keep his mouth shut?
But Claude was immune to such minor forms of provocation and didn’t even bat an eyelid as he looked back into Tania’s eyes. As much as Tania wished to continue losing her temper at Claude, she knew who her true enemy was in that house. Therefore, she quickly shifted her gaze away to look at Elise politely. There wasn’t a hint of sloppiness in Tania’s actions then.
“It’s right to value your food,” Elise uttered light-heartedly. “You’ve worked hard today. Where are you going to sleep?”
Tania was too afraid to say that she wanted to sleep in Alexander’s area. After giving the question some thought, she finally came up with an answer. “Should I sleep with Maria?”
