Anna Stark walked away and Daniel's mother came in and watched John Peter warily, "Did you bully her again? She was studying here. Why did she leave when you came?"
John Peter, "..."
He looked at his grandmother, "why I bully her? She was bullying me."
"Why does she bully you? Even if she does, you have to bear it. You are well aware of your uncle's condition. If he gets angry and left us, you will stay answerable to me." In the end, grandma's tone was quite sad.
After Daniel Taylor's accident, the family was not in a good mood. As compared with his uncle's loss, he also lost Anna Stark. But everyone thought that he didn't suffer anything.
John Peter looked at her grandmother's face and said nothing.
At night, Daniel Taylor and Jack Smith came back. When he came back, everyone was in the dining hall and eating. Anna Stark was not there.
"Where is Anna?" he asked.
"She seemed to have a quarrel with John," Daniel's mother said, "I asked her to have dinner, but she didn't come down."
Daniel Taylor looked at John Peter on the other side. "Why, are you making trouble with her again?"
"I didn't." John Peter explained, "I really didn't bully her. Don't blame me for anything."
Anna Stark didn't come down for dinner, but everyone was asking him.
John thought about this and felt really upset.
He always thought that Anna Stark had been manipulating him since she came here. For example, like now, she got angry even he didn't do anything to her.
She was just a very clever girl!
Depending on his family's favor, she could do whatever she wanted.
The more she will behave like this, the more difficult it will be for him to stay here. Now maybe he couldn't have a good life in this family.
Daniel Taylor did not blame John Peter, "I'll go to see her first."
