The incident that left Adrian Sullivan in a sorry state was witnessed not only by Andrew Hughes, Rosie Sullivan, and Katherine Collins but also by Rosa Sullivan, who arrived shortly after realizing Adrian was there.

"Brother."

Standing at the doorway and witnessing the unbearable scene, Rosa Sullivan instinctively halted and frowned as she called out.

Faced with Rosa Sullivan, Adrian Sullivan felt too embarrassed to keep lying down. Clenching his teeth, he endured the pain, stood up, feigning calmness as if nothing had happened, brushing off the corners of his clothes and straightening his attire. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Seeing him like this, Rosie dismissed the idea that he was trying to scam her, then glanced at his facade, tsked, and couldn’t help but taunt, "Heh, looks like you didn’t get injured after all."

Damn it!

Be it Rosa or Adrian Sullivan, seeing her always ignited anger.

Tolerating Rosa Sullivan in the crew for Nora Scott’s sake was one thing, but now there was Adrian Sullivan—

That was truly intolerable.

"Rosie!"

Adrian Sullivan, in anger, pointed a finger at Rosie.

Rosie’s expression turned cold. She stepped forward, her sharp gaze sweeping over, her dark eyes like an oppressive shadow, filled with ferocity.

Under her piercing gaze, Adrian Sullivan felt a little uneasy.

"What happened to lead to a physical confrontation?"

Rosa Sullivan stepped forward, her expression cool, her gaze directed at Rosie. Her slightly haughty demeanor pricking at Rosie, making her anxiety rise uncontrollably.

For some reason, every time Rosie saw Rosa’s superior attitude, it made her particularly angry.

Additionally, most of the time, her emotions were swayed by Rosa Sullivan.

"I just received a call from Andrew saying some strange uncle was bothering him, and in a panic, Rosie only bumped into him slightly." Katherine spoke calmly, her voice carrying a gentle warmth, making it pleasant and soothing to hear.

At this moment, several pairs of eyes appeared outside the classroom door, though everyone tried not to make it obvious.

Rosa Sullivan chuckled lightly, tilting her head, and met Katherine’s gaze, "Just bumped slightly?"

"I also find it strange how a slight bump could cause such a fall?" Katherine looked puzzled, "Our Rosie is delicate, unable to carry things on her shoulder or hand, lacking the strength to even truss a chicken. She complains about tiredness with just a shopping bag, how could she push a man like this?"

"..."

Faced with a master, Rosa Sullivan’s expression changed.

Adrian’s face couldn’t hold up at all.

Shit!

Rosie had practiced martial arts since childhood, so how could she be so delicate as Katherine described!

He opened his mouth to argue, but Rosa raised her hand to stop him.

They all knew Rosie’s situation, but hearing it from Katherine, the false sounded true. Arguing with Katherine would only further complicate things.

—After all, Rosie never demonstrated any martial arts in the crew.

"Perhaps it was an accident." Rosa spoke, "He’s my brother, not some strange uncle."

At this point, Rosa looked at Rosie, her tone slightly cold, "Rosie should know better."

Rosie shrugged, "You can’t judge a book by its cover. I’m not familiar with him, so I can’t be sure."

"You—"

Adrian Sullivan got angry again.

Rosie shot him a provocative look.

"Rosie sis, Miss Collins, I don’t like him."

Andrew tugged at Rosie’s clothes, slightly raising his head, his voice crisp, frowning tightly as he looked at Adrian, showing his displeasure clearly.

The words of a child were the strongest.

Once he expressed his opinion, no matter what Adrian did or didn’t do, righteousness would not be on Adrian’s side.

Everyone would just think: He deserved to fall like that!

Adrian clearly realized this and willingly accepted the dumb loss, no longer attempting to argue.

"Perhaps my communication method was wrong." Adrian’s attitude improved significantly, taking a deep breath, he continued, "I am from the Sullivan Clan of Xiangel City—a descendant of a family skilled in Mechanical Techniques, and Rosa’s brother. I heard little Andrew here is quite talented in Mechanical Techniques, so I came by to meet him."

Saying this, Adrian reached into his pocket and pulled out two small mechanical toys, "I have two toys here, wonder if little Andrew is interested in playing with them?"

"No."

Before any adult could speak, Andrew decisively expressed his thoughts.

Very assertive indeed.

"These are toys that only the Sullivan Clan has," Adrian was persistent, continuing to persuade, "They’re not available on the market. Little one, should you regret wanting to play later, there won’t be another chance."

Andrew looked indifferently at the two small toys in his palm.

—His master could draw one in minutes for him to make, he wasn’t intrigued at all.

Rosie impatiently said, "He’s not interested, don’t you understand human speech?"

She really gets irritated seeing Adrian boast about these mechanical toys!

Recently, thanks to Nora Scott, Mechanical Techniques had become hugely popular. However, because Nora’s Mechanical Techniques had no origin point, they were questioned by anti-fans as fake. Meanwhile, Rosa basked in the attention offered by the title "Sullivan Clan of Xiangel City," gaining traction from Nora’s wave of popularity, with Adrian receiving courtesies from many families in Fenton City.

The benefits were entirely reaped by these siblings!

Adrian always looked down on Rosie, not even bothering to look at her directly. Seeing Rosie speak to him so arrogantly, he immediately turned sullen.

He questioned her, "Rosie, not having any talent in Mechanical Techniques yourself, now hindering talented kids from exhibiting their skills, what’s your motive?"
