Chapter 1239: Dream 557_3 Chapter 1239: Dream 557_3 Sanny Groove turned, and ordered, “Come here.”

Automatically, Kevin Groove shrank his neck in hesitation before walking over obediently, looking so silly with his awkward movement that Dallyn could not help but laugh.

Sanny marched up and tugged at his ear.

“Is your tongue tied?

Can you not call out?”

“Ouch, sister be gentle, I’m your real brother!.” Kevin cried out in pain.

Sanny scoffed: “What of it?

If you misbehave, I’ll still hit you.”

His sister spoke the hitting part too smoothly and Kevin ended up involuntarily shivering.

“Aubree, Aubree, it’s me Kevin, do you remember?” Kevin shouted.

...

“Alright,” said Aubree.

Sanny released her hand, flicking off her fingers “Go do your homework and you’re not allowed outside without my permission.”

Kevin merely uttered a sound of acknowledgment before obediently walking inside with his backpack.

Sanny hooked her arm through Aubree’s, speaking with a radiant smile: “Granny talks about you all the time.

If she knew you were back, she would be overjoyed.”

Aubree looked at Kevin’s retreating figure, curling her lips into a smile: “He’s not the same as before, and it’s all thanks to you, sister.”

Sanny waved her hand: “I wanted to be a knowingly gentle and understanding older sister, but this little rascal only recognizes force.

If I’m too nice, he’ll take advantage and make trouble.

So, I could only adopt this way to deal with him.” As she spoke, she shook her fist.

Kevin was rebellious by nature.

If countermeasures were not taken, he would dare to stir up trouble.

“Luckily, during the filming of martial arts scenes in the past, I underwent intensive training for a few months.

I learned some flashy but ineffective kung fu moves.

To intimidate a teenager like him, it’s more than enough.

If they came to actual blows, she wouldn’t be able to defeat sixteen-year-old Kevin, but she could intimidate him with her dominating aura and the authority of being his elder sister.

Over time, Kevin was actually cowed and gradually became an obedient kitten, he wouldn’t dare deviate from her rules.

Lately, she had figured it out.

The child was rebellious, or to be blunt, stubbornly disobedient, moving backward when pushed and being defiant when scolded.

Normally, he was resilient, but once punishment was inflicted, he knew pain and would howl in dismay.

“That’s good,” said Aubree with a smile.

“That child lacks discipline.

If he is not managed now, he might cause major problems in the future.”

Sanny laughed, “as long as I’m here, there won’t be a second path for him.”

Entering the Grooves residence, Dallyn lagged behind and sneered at the petrified servant, gesturing as if threatening to poke her eyes out.

This scared the servant into stepping backward hastily.

“Open your eyes wider, the next time you see our mistress, respectfully invite her in.”

The servant, though resentful, kept her mouth shut out of fear.

When Madam Groove saw Aubree, she was delighted.

She held her hand and spoke a lot, but Aubree patiently accompanied her.

“On New Year’s Eve, I watched the Spring Festival Gala on TV.

When you appeared, I was startled and thought my eyes were playing tricks on me.

I never imagined it was indeed you.

You looked extraordinarily stunning.

Every time I met someone, I would say that my granddaughter was on TV, and she was featured in the Spring Festival Gala.”

The old lady was quite enthusiastic and talked for a while.

Eventually, her age caught up with her and she became somewhat fatigued.

“Don’t leave tonight.

I will have the kitchen prepare your favorite meals.

Stay and have dinner with me so I can take a good look at you.”

Aubree squatted down with a smile, “Alright, I’ll stay.”

The old woman gently patted her hand, “I won’t interrupt you two from catching up now.

Madam Philbert, please escort me to the garden.”

After the old woman left, Sanny pulled Aubree back into the bedroom, “Aubree, there’s something strange I need to tell you.”

“What is it?”

Sanny licked her lips, her hands nervously intertwining, “One night, I had a dream, and I seemed to have dreamt of your senior sister.”

Aubree stilled her gaze, “What did you say?”

Sanny frowned as if she was trying hard to remember, “It seemed as if she was confined somewhere.

She kept shouting, ‘Let me out!

Someone, please save me…”.

Suddenly, Aubree grabbed Sanny’s hand, “Where was she?” 𝑛𝘰𝘷𝑝𝘶𝑏.𝑐𝘰𝘮

Sanny glanced downwards at the grip on her wrist, a spark of sadness flickering in her eyes.

When she raised her head again, it had completely vanished.

Sanny shook her head, “I have no idea where that place was.

It was vast and gloomy! There seemed to be a river, and at the riverbank, there were many red flowers.

I’ve never seen such beautiful flowers !.”

“Aubree, even though I didn’t see her face, I knew in my heart that she was your senior sister.

You seem to be well-informed; do you have any idea if she is in trouble?”

Aubree’s eyes clouded over, she murmured, “Senior sister, what exactly happened to you?”
