The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 739

Chapter 739: Chapter 739: The Complete Family Portrait

Magnolia Hearne’s sudden use of the term ’little brother’ left the guests present momentarily bewildered.

Didn’t she just say he was her older brother?

Scarlett Jennings quickly understood; she was getting back at him for calling her ugly in front of everyone earlier, wasn’t she?

Aaron Hearne naturally realized this too, but his face turned grim as he corrected her word by word in a deep voice,

"I am your elder brother."

The aura of his voice didn’t match that of a younger brother at all.

But Magnolia wasn’t about to let him off that easily.

Didn’t he look down on her for making herself look older?

Didn’t he call her ugly?

Then let’s hurt each other.

She didn’t confront him directly; instead, she gracefully turned to the guests, explaining in a tone full of tolerance,

"Please forgive my brother; he’s been strong-willed since he was young and always likes to pretend he’s the older one. I hope you all understand."

With Magnolia’s explanation, everyone present suddenly understood.

Oh! That’s how it is!

Some children do like to compete over this when they’re young.

Families with more than one child understand this.

Upon closer inspection, this family member indeed looks younger than Mrs. Jiang.

No older than thirty.

It’s unexpected that at this age, he would still argue about being older than his sister.

Almost instantaneously, the elders who were scrutinizing and wary of Aaron Hearne now looked at him with the patience reserved for a younger generation.

Aaron Hearne coldly stared at Magnolia, and after a while, he pulled out a cold smile,

"To want to be my elder sister comes with a price."

Magnolia was actually a bit intimidated by him, but she feigned calmness,

"Price or no price, let’s deal with it later."

Aaron Hearne snorted coldly, "Fine."

...

Because Aaron Hearne suddenly brought a ’dowry’ along, the reporters tonight were quite excited.

They originally thought they were just announcing the return of Mrs. Jiang, but unexpected twists filled the story.

They decided to write their articles overnight; this scoop couldn’t be missed.

Old Sir Jiang had been listening to their conversation and naturally understood that this young man from the Wolf Family had come today to support his eldest daughter-in-law.

He thought it wasn’t a bad thing. Although the Jennings didn’t care much about the daughter-in-law’s dowry, the dowry is a woman’s confidence and represents her family’s attitude towards her.

It’s good for his eldest daughter-in-law to have family support.

Seeing Aaron Hearne about to leave after giving the gifts, Old Sir Jiang took the initiative to ask him to stay,

"Since you’re here, why don’t you wait a little?"

Being a Demon, Elderly men like Old Sir Jiang seemed like children to Aaron, so he had no intention of respecting him and merely raised his eyelids, replying,

"You’re asking me to wait?"

Magnolia: ...

If it weren’t for the setting, she’d definitely instigate a big fight with him.

Though she surely wouldn’t win, she still wanted to fight.

Old Sir Jiang wasn’t angry; he just looked at him with a smile and said,

"Wait a bit, we’re getting ready to take a big family photo. You are family to the eldest daughter-in-law, and since the opportunity might not come again, why not join us for the photo before you leave."

After finishing, he noticed Aaron looked a bit surprised, so he slowly added,

"But this is not mandatory. If you have something urgent, feel free to leave."

Aaron: ...

This old man doesn’t seriously think he cares about taking some family photo with them, does he?

Heh.

*

Five minutes later.

The photographer set up the position for the shoot, and the Jennings family arranged themselves by each family unit.

Aaron stood beside Magnolia, looking at Old Sir Jiang and the matron seated at the front.

His brows furrowed, and he bluntly asked,

"Why are they sitting at the front?"

In terms of age, he was way older than these two elders.

He didn’t believe she didn’t know who that was. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖
