Matteo immediately went to wash his hands while everyone sat down.
The people sitting at the table were acquaintances.
The atmosphere of this lunch should be relaxed, but because of Anna and Matteo's relationship, everyone felt uncomfortable.
Anna avoided Matteo since he entered, drinking only rice without talking to the man.
Matteo said nothing and remained calm as if nothing had happened.
Serena thought that the problem between Anna and her brother should be solved, even if she took extreme measures, right?
However, it was not convenient for her to say what she thought in front of Manuel, Serena cast a glance at her son to secretly mention it.
As her son, Manuel had never disappointed her.
-Mom, Uncle, Anna, I'm full,‖ she immediately understood what her mother meant. She put down the bowl and chopsticks and said, -I'm going to the room.
-Are you full? -Serena asked him, pretending not to know anything, -How little food have you eaten, why don't you eat more?
-I can't eat anymore, Mom. -Manuel shook his head.
Matthew half-closed his lips, looking at Manuel with a complicated look. Manuel found out, smiled at Matteo and left.
After her son left, Serena smiled and raised her head to talk to Matteo, but unexpectedly discovered that Matteo was looking at her. Although nothing was expressed, it seemed that Matteo had no more remedies with his sister.
"You guessed what I'm about to do, how well does Matteo know me?" Serena thought.
-Matteo, is that...?
-I'm going to take a look at Manuel, since he hasn't eaten much. -As soon as he spoke, Anna, who was sitting next to her, stood up excitedly as if she were afraid.
After saying this, ignoring Serena's and Matteo's reactions, she quickly left them.
Serena was stunned.
What had happened? She had not yet had time to talk to Anna, and she was gone.
How long could she try to avoid everything?
Serena felt a little unhappy. She deliberately asked Manuel to leave, only to talk about things the children could not hear. In the end, Anna slipped away.
Serena's efforts were indeed in vain.
Serena sighed heavily, then looked at Matteo.
-Are you horrible? Anna is afraid of you again.
Matteo took a sip of soup calmly, with an ever-present expression, and looked at his sister when he heard the words.
-Didn't you scare her?
Serena huffed, -Why am I the one who scared her, would she be so shy if you weren't here?
Hearing this, Matteo did not respond, but frowned slightly.
Until now, the girl was still afraid of him.
After that night, the relationship between the two had always been lukewarm, without any development.
He did not treat her as coldly as before, but ... it was not much better than before. Anna was like a bird frightened by a bow. And he was the hunter who held the bow.
Even though he didn't have an arrow in his hand.
-Maybe because I look scary?
-Thinking of this, Matteo closed his lips and said slightly.
Serena was speechless.
What a stupid thing to say!
-Matteo, what are you thinking about?
