Me Before You

Chapter 29

His palm was very warm, Anna Stark held his hand and looked at him, "So what should I do?"

"Just listen."

"Oh."

-

Anna Stark and Daniel came out for dinner. She pushed Daniel Taylor's wheelchair into the dining room, and Claire Ashley followed John Peter.

Claire Ashley again tried to show her gentle side in front of Taylor's family, and politely greeted Daniel Taylor, "Hello, uncle."

Daniel Taylor nodded coldly. Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

He picked up the hot towel and wiped Anna Stark's hands. This scene made Claire felt a little confused. She knew that Daniel was John Peter's uncle, but why Anna Stark was too close to him?

They looked like lovers.

Everyone ignored Claire Ashley, but she smiled and looked at Daniel Taylor, "my name is Claire Ashley, I am Anna Stark's classmate. We are good friends."

When Daniel heard that she was Anna's classmate, he finally looked up at Claire Ashley, "good friends?"

Claire Ashley said, "Yes, Anna often comes to my house. Right, Anna?"

She said and looked at Anna Stark.

Anna Stark looked at Claire Ashley's face, she was beautiful and looked lovely as well. She admitted that Claire Ashley had a very friendly face, and her natural acting skills will make people think that she is a good person.

But Anna Stark was badly cheated by her.

Claire was behaving nice to Anna. Everyone in Taylor's house was very nice to Anna, Claire thought that she can use Anna to fulfill her purposes. For Claire, Anna was just a stepping stone to get close to John Peter.

She was trying to get along with her on purpose.

"Yes, we used to be friends," Anna said.

Daniel Taylor looked at Anna Stark and noticed her attitude. She was very uncomfortable. It was not like the reaction you should have in the face of your best friend.

He understood but didn't say much.

Daniel's mother looked at John Peter and asked, "I heard that you fired Anna from the hotel?"

John Peter, "..."

He had been constantly nagging these days. He didn't expect that he would have to listen to this lecture again at the dining table.

He didn't speak.

"A family should take care of each other, but you bullied your own family member in front of others. I didn't expect it from you." Daniel's mother looked at John and disappointingly said.

"Yes, I know I did wrong." John Peter was fed up with their taunts, "that day uncle already asked me to apologize. What else do you want me to do?"

Claire Ashley was sitting beside John Peter. She was shocked to hear that. She couldn't believe that what she heard was true?

They even asked John Peter to apologize to Anna Stark?

Because John dismissed Anna Stark?

But why John did that?

Claire thought it was John Peter's family, but it seemed more like Anna Stark’s family.

She was very shocked to see such kind of situation.

"Anna is your aunt now. Why did you do that with her? You and she have a very respectful relation. Don't dare to bully her next time, do you hear me?" Daniel’s mother added.

These words "little aunt" were extremely harsh.

John Peter stared at Anna Stark. Every time he heard these words. He felt like his heart being stabbed by a knife.

Anna Stark was sitting beside Daniel Taylor, she kept eating quietly and didn’t say anything.

And finally, Claire got to know the whole situation. Anna Stark turned out to be John Peter's little aunt!
