Surviving in Woman's world as a novel villain.-Chapter 70 70. Bro-Con
"Who are you and what is your relationship with my brother?"
Amara moved at lightning speed and directly stood in front of Alex as if she was protecting her calf. She didn't know what the relationship was between this woman and her brother but her woman's instincts were ringing. This woman had ulterior motives.
A woman has this kinda power. They can sense when another woman's motive behind approaching their man, Unlike a man who thinks these womens only come close to them because they are friendly and whatnot. 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝒆𝘸𝚎𝙗𝒏oν𝙚𝘭.𝐜𝒐m
She knows they don't, Most if not every woman's motive behind approaching a man is always to get into his pants, They are not just friends as they let man believe.
*Roar*
Saphira roared at Amara to get her attention but surprisingly she didn't leave from Alex's side at all even seeing her master is there, Which was an outright rebellion in the term of beastmasters code.
'Good girl.'
But Amara, other than getting angry, became delighted. She acutely was impressed by it, As it was harder for the beast to not come to their master than to resist an order of it. So Amara was happy that Saphira was seated with Alex as she trained her to do that.
Well, there is another reason other than the training of Amara is that, Alex's charm. His charm is not only work on humans but it also works on every being, especially the less intelligent ones, As they prefer to go by their instincts and feelings over intelligent ones who most of the time are bound by logic and morals.
"I am Isabella, head of the Gayler family."
Isabella also became uneasy seeing the beautiful woman come out of Alex's bedroom. A rare flame of jealousy ignited in her heart as hatred quickly raised in her heart.
But when she finds out this woman is the sister of Alex, The hatred is quickly replaced by the eagerness to get appreciation from this woman. She didn't know what was happening but one thing she was sure of was to make herself appear visible in this woman's eyes.
"Aren't you ashamed of even mentioning low-grade families like Gayler's in front of me? You should have a thick face, don't you?"
How can Amara, Who was on alert not able to understand the intention behind Isabella's statement? She already guessed the reason this woman is coming here is because of her brother, So she didn't hesitate and decided to show Isabella her place.
In her eyes little family like Gayler is not worth mentioning at all, It was even considered a great insult of hers as the eldest miss of the Winchester family, Amara. Not to mention Alex who is the heir to the said family.
She wanted to show Isabell her place, A stupid dream of toad eating swans meat, So at least one threat to her position in her brother's heart will be eliminated.
"...Excuse me? I think you mistook me for someone else, sister."
Isabella was stunned by the reply she received. If it were a normal time, she would have given a sharp retort and shown Amara why it's considered taboo to provoke politicians and businesswomens. As with connections and money, they can pretty much ignore all the rules imposed on others by law.
But she didn't. Amara is Alex's sister, and for reasons only logical to her, she also considers Alex's sister as her sister. Totally ignoring the age, As Amara at best considers her daughter, not sister.
"Who the fuck are you calling sister, you old hag? Saphira, show our guest the way to the door."
Amara shivered as she heard Isabella calling her sister. She got repelled and disgusted by someone else other than Alex calling her sister. The sister title is only exclusive to her brother. No one else can call her that.
So she decided to use force to threaten Isabella. After all, seeing a 6 ft long tiger, anyone would think twice before messing with you.
*Purr*
Saphira ignored her command as she was currently enjoying the warm palm of Alex rubbing her white, silky fur on her head. Her eyes were clenched, and she was purring in joy. Normally, tigers aren't capable of purring, but here they somehow can.
'Good, good girl, I trained her right. I too will not give up the warmth of my lovely brother's hand.'
Amara, unlike normal beastmasters getting frustrated, was proud of her beast for not following her order.
The only reason she even chose a white tigress is that Alex once said he liked white tigers. The motive behind Saphira is not the increase in combat effectiveness of Saphira's agile and fierce nature, but it's all because Alex liked it.
So now seeing Saphira playing with Alex, Amara was happy. Now her brother has two reasons to remember her, to think of her.
As you still do not get it, she is a proper bro-con, thankfully not the extremely crazy Yandere type like Alia.
So seeing that even a woman as old as Isabella wanted to be with Alex, Amara who didn't even have time to properly accept Rita yet can't take another one.
Plus there is a slight fear as Alex is corrupted by the city. He might really be wooed away by this old cow wanting to eat young grass.
"Old-Old hag?! Did you even know who I am-"
"Madam Gayler, age 42 years old, mother of two children, a daughter and a son. You are also the head of the Gayler family, which on paper is worth approximately 100 billion, but its actual worth is around 269 billion UC right now."
Isabella suddenly became aggravated as Amara mentioned her age. Normally, she didn't care, but today she was not in her usual self.
When Amara mentioned her age, she felt like someone sprinkled salt on her open wound. She wanted to retaliate, but seeing Alex standing by side, she controlled herself and once again wanted to tell her about her family values, as she still thinks Amara misunderstood her.
But Amara didn't let her finish and started talking about the things that only a few core members of her family should know, especially the actual value of their family. If it became public, there would be sanctions imposed on them by the government. That has a risk of her family falling from the top three families in this Berlin city.
"But that's not all. You are also members of a hidden society, a proper A-rank awakened with an exceptional elemental superpower."
Amara continued to speak the secrets that now only Isabella should know. No one knows that Isabella is awakened, not even Nathan, the protagonist of the novel. However, Amara knows it all.
She had protectors around Alex, so when Alex had trouble with Nathan yesterday, they reported it to her. So to be on the safe side, Amara dug out every single detail of Nathan's family, which includes Isabella's information.
Amara was surprised to find that in a small city like Berlin, Isabella is a respected person like a A-rank awakened. Then there was an issue with Belladonna, so she directly came here, fearing for the safety of Alex.
'Bingo!'
When Alex heard Amara's words, his heart became happy as he just won the jackpot. This is the reason why he let her keep talking. Now Isabella should know his family's power.
This way, she will not see him as lower or even equal to her, but she can only see him as superior to her subconsciously. This didn't look like much, but only Alex knew that this simple thing could change the whole foundation of their relationship.
If Isabella still sees him as lower or even, in the best-case scenario, equal, he wouldn't be able to pull out task requirements for the second option completion as the initiative would be in her hands, And she will not do anything that would hurt her loved son.
But now, all control will be in his hands. He just now has to give a little push, and she will happily cooperate with him to make Nathan doubt his life.
'How Nathan would react seeing his beloved mother in my arms? Will he be sad or like a pathetic protagonist from NTR get boner from it? It will be exciting to find that out.'
Alex couldn't help but to imagine how Nathan will react, When he gives him a taste of his own medicine.
Before he wanted to go easy on Nathan but after hearing his thoughts he changed his mind, He will make Nathan suffer, Give him hellish torture for each second of his life.
"Now, the question is why are you here? Is it because you want revenge for your son? If that's the case, I warn you. With one phone call, I can change your family status from 'is' to 'was', and - Orchha Ouhha!!"
Amara is not dumb like a certain someone whose brain only works when she needs defense against her sister, so she quickly figures out the cause and effect of Isabella's visit. She wanted to threaten Isabella and show her family's might, but while she was talking, a soft fingers pinched and twisted her ear rudely, making her unable to continue.
"Sorry for that, Sister Isabella. My sister has some serious problems with her brain. We tried multiple treatments, but sadly, there is no cure for stupidity."
Alex speed blitzed to Amara and twisted her soft pinkish ears as he quickly took a verbal shot at her as he apologised to Isabella. This way, he will come out as a reasonable person.
In simple words, this is a bad cop good cop strategy. Although this is an old thing, it works, especially when you have a world-defying charm.
He also makes sure to call her sister and then miss. This way, the distance between them will decrease a lot in an instant, and he doesn't have to do extra work.
*Shatter*
Someone once said, "When the glass breaks, everyone will hear it, but when the heart breaks, no one notices."
This is the case with Amara. Her heart is shattered right now, broken into pieces. Not because Alex called her stupid, but because he called Isabella sister. 𝑓𝘳ℯ𝒆w𝘦𝘣𝙣𝘰ѵ𝘦𝚕.c𝗼𝓶
She is Alex's one and only sister, and that's the thing she is most proud of. But now, he's calling another woman's sister. Doesn't that mean there is a new competitor for her brother's love?
Yes, even she ignored Isabella's age. This setting of the world. Sometimes, it makes Alex feel weird. Although it makes it easy for him to target heroines.
"N-No problem. I should make myself clear. I am here to apologise for my son's mistake of yesterday. Please find a place in your heart and forgive him."
Isabella was horrified as all the things that she thought were well-protected secrets were exposed by the stranger. Anyone would become scared, but she was glad that she didn't go directly to the main point and also stopped White from acting rashly.
The estimated threat of Alex trouble with Nathan is an underestimation compared to the current one. Even the Miller family isn't able to get the information about her family and her in these details, which shows that the background of Alex's sister is way scarier and a much bigger threat than Miller's.
"I am so hungry."
When the atmosphere was tense, a lazy voice came out of the bedroom as another woman walked out of the room.
"....."
".....Fuck you, Rita!!"
Isabella was confused as she looked stupidly at Rita exiting the bedroom, Amara on other hand was angry and rushed towards Rita, who just wanted to eat something.
"What did I do?"
That was the only question she could utter before Amara jumped on her, blocking her field of view completely.
(A/N: Why do you think they reacted like that? What do you think Rita did?
As always, thank you for reading, and have a good day! ????)p
