Chapter 11 - C11

On the next day, Aubrey woke up after hearing her twin brother's voice for breakfast. The food is simple and tasty enough to satisfy her palate.

"Our grandparents will be back at lunch time. They haven't know that you are back yet while Papa is still managing the Corporation. As a son and soon becomes a noble son, you should be sensible on everyone's action by determining their purpose of why they are doing it" Andrew lectured her like a firm teacher who especialized on Etiquette and Moral.

"Yes, elder brother" she nodded and sat down on the opposite side of the table. This is her usual seat.

"Before starting the training of unleashing your power, you should learn the behavior of a proper noble son. A young lady is completely different to young master. It is not because of gender discrimination but because, as a man, you should show that you are confident and brave enough to take responsibilities" Andrew continued while waving his hand towards the maids. The maids immediately prepare the dishes for breakfast.

Aubrey is not picky of food but Andrew is. She doesn't care but let Andrew does as he want.

"There is no huge difference of table manner between a young lady and a young master. You can eat just like usual" he said as he opened a bottle of wine and slowly poured it down on his wine cup. He also gave a cup of wine to Aubrey.

"Don't worry. You can learn it properly with the help of your home tutor. He is not only in-charged of your etiquette as a young master but also your academic tutor. He will arrive later together with our grandparents" he lastly said and start eating.

Aubrey just keep nodding every time Andrew conveyed his words. She frowned and thought that her twin brother changed a bit after that day she said to him that she wanted to be a soldier.

She also start eating. Her eyes squinted when her phone from inside her pocket, vibrated. She picked it up and answered the call.

"Hello?" she probed to other side of the call. There was no sound from the other side but she waited for two minutes before it ended. She looked at the screen and realized that it is an unknown number.

"Is there something wrong, Aubrey?" Andrew asked and looked at her. Aubrey shook her head and put down the phone.

"Just a prank call, I think" she said and continue eating.

-----

"Hello?" a young man's voice coming out from the other side of the call. An old man with military uniform didn't speak and waited for that young man to continue. As two minutes passed, his phone shutted down which means it ran out of battery.

"Have you found Alicia's daughter?" a middle-aged man who sat on the opposite side of the old man, asked.

"I think, we are mistaken" the old man answered while his eyes showed confusion and his hands are trembling. At first, he was excited of hearing the voice of Alicia's daughter but he heard the voice of a young man.

"Alicia's children are twins. I heard they are fraternal twins. A young girl, Aubrey, and young boy, Andrew" the middle-aged man said as he flipped through the documents on his hands.

The old man sighed.
