At breakfast the next day.
Anna Wright looked left and right. She could not help asking, "Where's Jacob? Hasn't he woke up yet?"
“Yes, my brother was just discharged from the hospital recently. Let him rest more," said Susan Shelby with a smile.
"Little lazy pig,” muttered Anna.
Susan looked at Anna with her interest piqued, then she asked, "Annie, what do you think about my brother?"
"Huh?" Anna's face blushed scarlet at once. "What do you mean by what do I think of him?"
Susan carried the chair and placed it next to her before taking a seat. "I shall be more blunt, I guess. Do you like my brother? And I'm talking about how a girl likes a guy."
Anna was speechless.
It was a little overly blunt, huh!
Anna’s face was already blushing beyond recognition. She pushed at the table in a panic and stood up instantaneously. "Susie, what nonsense are you talking about?" "Nonsense?" Susan blinked innocently. "Does that mean that you don't like him? Frankly, my brother is not young anymore. I think that it's time that he get m e a sister-in-law. I wanted to introduce both of you to give it a try originally. If you’re not interested, then I shall try to introduce someone else, Annie."
Susan said it in all apparent seriousness. Anna said subconsciously, "Don’t introduce someone else!"
"Ah!" Susan took a meaningful glance at her. "Why is that so?"
"I..." Anna feigned her calmness forcibly and said," He’s such a blackhead, girls won't like him."
Witnessing Anna’s awkwardness, Susan refrained herself from laughing. “Other girls don’t like him so you do?"
"Yikes, I’m not talking to you anymore. I’m better off checking if he is awake." Anna turned around and ran upstairs with loud thuds.
Susan could not help laughing in spite of herself as she gazed at Anna's departing silhouette.
"What's so funny?" Julian Shaw shot a side glance at her.
"It's quite interesting." Susan suppressed the urge to laugh. "I was still worried about how the incident with Jenny Carter earlier would make my brother repulse women. It seems like I don't have to worry about that anymore judging by the current situation." "Anna is quite interested in Jacob. However, are you sure that Jacob likes her back?" asked Julian.
Susan sniggered and pointed at her eyes with a finger. "Nothing can hide from my titanium eyes. My instinct is telling me that they can end up as a couple."
"Is your instinct telling you that today's sausage is especially tasty?" As Julian was speaking, he picked u p a sausage and put it into his mouth.
Susan glanced to find the plate that contained the sausages originally was already empty.
Oh oh oh, it was one of her favorite breakfast foods.
"Julian, spit it out, spit it out." Susan attempted to shake him.
Susan had only let him off when he told her that there was still an extra plate for her in the kitchen.
The husband and wife were joking around when Anna suddenly came downstairs in a flurry. "Susie, Jacob...
Jacob is..."
"What’s going on?" Susan blinked. "Could it be that my brother molested you? It can’t be, right?"
"Yikes!" Anna’s face blushed subconsciously for a moment then hastily said, "Susie, Jacob is missing!”
"Missing?” Susan’s face froze at once.
"That's right. I went to knock on his door earlier and didn't get any response so I attempted to open the door. Unexpectedly, the door opened up right away and there was not a single person in the room,” said
Anna anxiously.
"Why is this happening!" Susan could not care about anything else so she went upstairs with Julian to check on him.
