Chapter 444 Failed Reconciliation

I glanced at Aaron beside me, who seemed lost in thought and didn't seem to care about all of this. Taking advantage of Mrs. Grace and Mr

Morris turning their attention back to the two children, he quietly got up and walked towards the kitchen

Joe was bending over, cutting oranges. The air was filled with the sweet and fragrant aroma of oranges. I rubbed my nose with my finger, making sure that the servants around were not present. Finally, I gathered up the courage and called out to him

"Joe, in fact, I have already heard about everything at home from Aaron. I really appreciate that you gave him some love during

the saddest years, as you said, we are family

Regarding some misunderstandings between you and me before, I would like to take the initiative to reconcile."

After saying all these words, I secretly breathed a sigh of relief

Taking this step was actually not difficult, but whenever I think about those absurd misunderstandings between us, I feel unsure about where to begin

Of course, I was definitely not the only one feeling embarrassed

In fact, from the moment I walked into the kitchen, I could tell that Joe was absent-minded

The orange juice dripped along the edge of the countertop, and Joe was completely unaware

Even when I finished saying those words just now, he didn't stop cutting the oranges until the blade almost hit his finger. Only then did he look up in response to my exclamation

"Joe! What were you doing? Did you get hurt?"

I saw Joe's expression was very complicated, it was a kind of expression that I didn't know whether to describe as angry or disappointed

And as he looked at me indifferently, I couldn't help but sigh and leaned over to check if he had cut his finger

But Joe, as if he had been touched by something dirty, forcefully shook off my hand and quickly retreated two meters away from me

"Olive, there was no misunderstanding between us, and you don't need to reconcile with me

Since you already know everything, there's no need for me to pretend anymore. You were right before, I was afraid that Aaron would take away my position as the heir. If you really want to thank me for taking care of him before, then it's best for you to persuade him to go back to Germany with you now, the farther away from me, the better."

What?

This is clearly a plot that I had never imagined in my mind

Looking at Joe's sudden change in attitude, I would rather believe that I must not have fully recovered from postpartum and am having hallucinations, rather than admitting that these words were indeed spoken by Joe

Because Aaron said that his brother had never

competed with him for anything, it wasn't just a show for children in front of adults. He could feel his brother's constant tolerance and love for him

No one would believe it even if this person himself said that everything before was just an act

But Joe seemed determined to make me believe that he was a terrible person, so he simply threw the fruit knife next to the fruit bowl, crossed his arms, and stared into my eyes as he repeated seriously:

"You heard it just now too, my parents really want me to get married as soon as possible

After everything settles down for me, the position of the heir to the Morris Group will definitely belong to me. Olive, just like you said, Aaron doesn't lack this status, nor does he

lack money, so why does he want to come back and become an obstacle for me? There 1s no family affection in the adult world, I hope you can understand and not help Aaron make the wrong choice."

I stared at him, trying my best to use my mind to discern the intention behind his words, but Joe's determined expression and uncompromising language were all indicating to me that his words were meant to drive us away

It was simply unreasonable!

I glanced at Joe awkwardly and hurtfully, and started to feel that I couldn't understand him at all

But since it is like this, I don't need to bother understanding this person. Perhaps it 1s best to keep my distance from him from now on

I took a deep breath and tried to make my voice as steady as possible

"I knew, but I still wanted to tell you that we never had any intention of usurping the heir's position, so please rest assured. After this project in Aaron's hands is over, we will definitely return to Germany. Whether you get married or successfully inherit Morris Group, both Aaron and I will bless you."

After saying these words, I did not wait for Joe's response and turned around to leave the kitchen

Of course, this also meant that I didn't have a chance to turn around and see his expression after he finished listening to these words. I think maybe he let out a sigh of relief, or perhaps he wore a victorious smile

In short, it wouldn't be sad and lonely. Yes, he

was the one who started mocking me and refused to accept my apology. So, what does he have to feel lonely about?
