No Trespassing! My Aloof Brother-Chapter 419 - 417: A Family [2nd Update]

She glanced at Henry Reid and then asked indifferently, "Is your injury healed? You were discharged so quickly."

"It’s nothing, just minor injuries," Henry replied as he casually handed the gift he brought to the servant.

Noah Owen stood awkwardly beside them; it was her first time bringing a boy home, and they were discussing marriage.

Charlotte Owen noticed Noah’s uneasy demeanor and casually said, "Have a seat!"

At this point, Henry and Noah shared a glance and then sat down on the sofa next to them.

Charlotte was well aware of why they had returned, yet she pretended to be ignorant and didn’t bring it up.

After a tense moment, Henry signaled to Noah with his eyes and looked at Charlotte, smiling cheerfully, "Auntie, Noah and I plan to set the wedding date for the 8th of next month, 10 days earlier than Sister Jane Spencer."

Charlotte, listening to Henry’s arrangement, glanced at Noah and asked, "Noah, have you made up your mind?"

"Mom, I’ve made up my mind, and I’ve decided to have the baby," Noah replied seriously, placing her right hand on her lower belly.

"Third Young Master, Miss Hanson, you’re back!" Liam Spencer led Maya Spencer back as the three of them were getting into the main topic.

On the sofa, Charlotte’s face immediately darkened upon hearing that Maya was there.

It was obvious that she was not welcoming Maya’s visit, because she still remembered how Maya nearly angered her to sickness during her last visit to the villa.

Still, Liam brought her back, and she couldn’t just kick her out, so she put on a sour face for her to see!

However, Maya couldn’t care less about Charlotte’s unwelcoming attitude.

Following Liam into the living room, she rudely sat down and then smiled at the servant, "Sister Mason, I don’t like floral tea, do you have any juice?"

"We do! We do!" The servant quickly answered and proceeded to bring her fresh squeezed juice.

"Haha! Truly unapologetic." Maya’s arrival diverted Charlotte’s attention entirely on her, with no mind to discuss Noah and Henry’s marriage.

Regarding Noah and Henry’s marriage, Charlotte was more interested in breaking up Liam and Maya.

Unfortunately, last time she arranged for about 40 girls to create a stir, but none made any waves, they all failed, which made Charlotte increasingly resentful towards Maya.

On the sofa, Maya casually drank a big gulp of juice, lazily glanced at Charlotte, and said nonchalantly, "This orange is a bit sour, Noah, this suits you better." She blatantly ignored Charlotte.

Charlotte looked at the girl’s arrogant demeanor, nearly exploding with anger, wanting to snatch the juice from her hand, but Maya finished it in three gulps.

"Pfft...!" Noah snickered at Maya’s lazy posture, she had never seen someone turn Charlotte so red with anger, Maya truly was quite wicked.

Liam, seeing Charlotte’s angry look, shook his head helplessly, then sat beside Maya, held her chin, and asked, "Can you be a bit more polite?"

His politeness didn’t mean treating herself as a guest, but having a courteous attitude towards Charlotte.

But that person just dismissively said, "My not fighting back is already the biggest courtesy."

"Maya, have you figured out who the master of this house really is?" Charlotte finally lost her patience and erupted.

Whenever these two met, they never failed to argue, with Charlotte always at a disadvantage, but she wasn’t discouraged, losing a hundred battles but fighting a hundred times. She refused to believe she couldn’t beat Maya.

"Come on! Why worry about such things! After all, we’re all family." Facing Charlotte’s anger, Maya remained in her lazy attitude, not caring at all about her pretentiousness.

In short, ignoring her left her with no means.

Beside them, Liam was amused by someone’s shameless talk of being family, his smile exceptionally bright, enjoying Maya’s sarcastic behavior immensely.

"Mom! Do you have any opinion about my wedding date with Henry?" Noah felt neglected as Charlotte preferred arguing with Maya over her marriage issue, and she unhappily asked her with a black face.

Only then did Charlotte realize she was discussing serious matters, and she glared at Maya fiercely before starting the marriage negotiations.

An hour later, they noted down a rough timeline and events, settled on the wedding company.

"Second Miss, it’s time to eat." Since Charlotte wasn’t married, Sister Taylor always referred to her as Second Miss.

"Henry, keep an eye on the guest list, don’t miss anyone or it might offend people," Charlotte reminded him while standing up from the sofa.

"Mom, I understand," Henry sweetly changed his tone, calling Charlotte mom right away.

"Alright, you all go to the dining room first, I’ll go to the study and be right back," Charlotte said, heading upstairs, followed closely by Liam.

In the study, Charlotte watched Liam who followed up, gave him a nonchalant glare, still minding that Liam was with Maya.

Liam wasn’t angry at Charlotte’s look, just smiled at her lightly.

Charlotte saw Liam’s mischievous smile and immediately spoke first, "Don’t say you’re also getting married, I won’t agree."

"Aunt, do you think getting married requires your approval?" Liam furrowed his brow, returning to his usual aloofness.

Charlotte, seeing his icy attitude, gritted her teeth thinking that these brats wouldn’t even consider her, were they trying to drive her mad?

After fuming, she asked with a black face, "Since you don’t need to ask me, why did you follow?" 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"Aunt, don’t keep throwing attitude at Maya, three years ago she aborted the child because during her pregnancy I let her drink alcohol. As for the affair she mentioned recently, she was just provoking you, you don’t need to take it to heart."

Liam knew Charlotte didn’t like Maya, and was most upset about the child from three years ago, so he explained the matter to her, advising her not to continue bickering with Maya.

If she didn’t antagonize Maya, then Maya naturally wouldn’t antagonize her first.

By the bay window, Charlotte was stunned by Liam’s explanation, furrowed her brows, staring intently at him.

Over the years, she had blamed Maya, accusing her of being heartless and taking the initiative to abort Liam’s child. Now knowing the truth left her a bit at a loss.

If what Liam said was true, then Maya should be the one feeling wronged.

She took a deep breath, gritted her teeth, and asked, "Why did you let her drink alcohol?"

"Things weren’t going well back then," Liam did not elaborate on the reason.

But Charlotte understood his bad temper, and at this moment, she finally realized why Maya left for three years.
