"Aaron, how can you speak to your sister like that?" Nathalie appeared just in time to hear the exchange, her face darkening instantly.

"She's happy to see you and just wants to be close to you. How could you talk to her like that? Is that any way for a brother to talk to his sister?" Nathalie shielded Lila behind her, glaring at Aaron with disapproval. Aaron let out a cold laugh. "She's not my real sister, and I'm married now.
