Chapter 1493
Corinne’s anger was directly proportional to her calmness. The lack of visible
anger was much more terrifying than if she were to scold them directly.
After telling “Bryan’ and Christine to come with her, Corinne turned and walked
out.
“Bryan’ and Christine looked at Francine, silently requesting her to intercede
forthem.
Francine could tell that Corinne was genuinely infuriated, so she decided not to
interfere with Corinne taking disciplinary action against the children. She
shrugged helplessly at the two kids and said, “I can’t help you anymore now that
your Mommy knows what happened. Now you'll have to face the consequences
of your actions.”
Bryan’ and Christine were disheartened; Francine seemed to have left them to be
sent to their doom! There was nothing they could do except follow their mother
out of their aunt's room.
Corinne brought the three children back to her bedroom. She sat on the sofa and
looked frustratedly at the kids. Then, she patted the seat next to her and said to
Joey, “Come here. You're not involved in all this.”
Joey looked at his younger siblings. He felt distressed and helpless as he went
over to take his seat.
Corinne looked at Bryan and Christine. “Why were you fighting?”
The two kids kept their lips tightly sealed. Neither offered an explanation.
Corinne then raised an eyebrow and said, “Still not talking?”
“Bryan’ pursed his lips, but Corinne’s gaze piled the pressure on him. Thus, he
was the first to speak up. “I fought back because she hit me.”
Christine shook her head. “He stepped on my doll on purpose! I was just trying to
push him away.”
“Bryan’ then said, “I didn’t do it on purpose, but you pushed me anyway!”
Christine responded, “Whatever! You can’t step on my doll!”
The argument started again.
Corinne frowned in slight irritation. “Enough!” Her stern command immediately
silenced the two youngsters.
“Bryan’ and Christine kept quiet and looked fearfully at their mother.
Corinne massaged her temples and said, “I thought you fought with each other
because of something serious! Are you telling me this minor issue was the
reason?”
The two children kept quiet.
“Is this how siblings should treat each other in a small misunderstanding? By
hurting your sibling?” Corinne asked unhappily.
“Bryan’ felt remorseful when he saw Corinne’s unhappy expression. “Please don’t
get angry, Mommy. I know I was wrong...”
Corinne then asked, “Do you know what you did wrong?”
“Bryan’ replied, “Yes. I shouldn't have fought with my sister.”
Corinne then turned to Christine. “What about you? Do you know what you did
wrong?”
Christine glared at “Bryan’ before looking back at Corinne. “I don’t think I was
wrong!”
