Chapter 247 Adler Brutus Su



She touched his head and laughed while injecting some energy into him to ease the pressure of his headache.

"Okay, why are you acting like a big baby?" She asked him.

"I am just tired." He said and he sighed.

"What is exhausting you my brother? You have been so snappy and ill tempered lately that everyone is walking on eggshells around you. Our parents are worried and they are not the only ones, even we your younger siblings are the same."

Everyone wanted to know what it was about Amara Leopold that was driving Adler insane. Why was she always running after him and why did he avoid her? They did not realize it but they were like a couple which was having a dispute.

Adler made himself comfortable instead, he threw his shoes off his feet using his mental strength and placed his feet up on the couch.

"I knew it, being next to you for a few minutes is all I needed. My headache is gone and I feel better. Sis, you are like a walking natural med bed. How is your husband? Is he still standing and what happened to Floozy? She has not been in the news lately. Are they hiding her or did she return to her home planet?"

"Adler Brutus Su, don't you dare change the topic, we are going to talk about this and find a solution otherwise on the first day of the month I am ordering Amara off my planet."

Adler winced, opened his eyes and pouted, something which was so unlike him. "Don't call me Brutus or I will call you Demona." He threatened.

"Hoo, so the gloves are coming off." Scarlet hissed at him and said.

"Fair play sis,you are not a kid anymore that I can be blackmailed with your tears. If you call me Brutus I might make a mistake on an official announcement and call you governor Demona Su. The whole world will come to know your true name, De-mo-na."

Just hearing that name alone made Scarlet break out in shivers. In this round, Adler had won. Nobody outside of the family could know that awful name had been hers.

"Fine, you win, for now. Brutus is off the table, I still think its a fine name though despite those mean kids who called you brute. Anyway, talk to me brother, right now, I am like a vault and whatever you say will not leave this room. I am worried about you Adler." She took the snow hat off his head and shook her own head at what she saw. "See, even your hair has lost it's spikes. How will our citizens identify you if you nolonger resemble a porcupine or a hedgehog?"

"I hate you, do not compare me to those rodents." He sulked.

She giggled and sniffed. He did not like the reference ever since she showed him pictures of both animals in a textbook. Now, he would be offended if anybody in the family even mentioned any of the two animals. Did he deliberately make his hair flat because of that?

"Do you have a cold?" He suddenly asked, worry was in his eyes. Even a simple cold or cough in winter was something to worry about in this world despite the new medicine developed by their pharmacy from a recipe that Scarlet said was given by her teacher.

"No, you said it yourself, I am a natural walking med bed. Stop avoiding the topic, who is Amara and what is she to you? Is she really your ex girlfriend? It looks to me like there is more to that story than everyone assumes. Would you care to share it with me? Look, I will stop pushing if you tell me that talking about her and whatever happened in your past is a source of pain for you but I will accept nothing other than that brother." It

Adler sighed and closed his eyes. His lips drew into a thin line and he shook his head.

"You are not going to drop this are you?" He asked her.

"I am your sister, allow me to protect you as much as you protect me."

"Ha! It's funny." He chuckled.

"What?" She asked.

"I clearly remember you as the short snot nosed brat that was always running to me for cover and making me fight all her enemies. Now, that snot nosed brat wants to protect me. Isn't it funny?" He could picture that little girl standing in front of him with her hands spread out widely in a silly attempt to protect him.

She slapped him on the lightly on the head, playfully. "Who are you calling snot nosed?" Did she look like she had a runny nose? Even if she did as a child, she was a full grown woman now. That memory should be extracted and burned from his memory.

"Don't hit me, I am simply reminding you of the good old days." He laughed hard and loudly.

"Out with it already, or I will stick my finger up your nose." She wiggled her index finger infront of his eyes, showing him that she meant business.Nobody liked having a finger shoved up their nose.

Adler covered his nose with both of his hands and stared at her with wide disbelieving eyes.

"Ew, the horror!!" He said. Not only would that be disgusting, it was probably painful as well. Who was teaching his sister such weird things? It had to be Esong Wu.

"Here it comes." She laughed and moved her finger around playfully, looking for a way into his nose while his hands moved around as well, blocking her finger.

"Put the finger down Demona." He said with a hearty laugh.

"Demonaa!!" She exclaimed. "You are dead Brutus."

Even though his nose was covered, she could tickle another part of his body and her hands moved to his waist.

Adler's eyes widened and he caught her hands. "Don't even dare to think about it."

"Talk or I will invite Justin to the tickle party." She threatened.

Adler gasped playfully, "You play dirty Demona, that's really low." He pretended to pout. "How can you use my lovely nephew against me?"

"All is fair in love and war Brutus." She answered with a shrug.

"Fine, you win, I will tell you but no more Brutus or Demona, deal?" He looked at her and waited for her response.

But then again, his sister did love having the last word always. She could say deal and then go back on her words. She was never one to allow herself to lose.

"Deal," she said. "Now talk."

Adler took a deep breath and blew air out of his mouth. He sighed loudly and looked at the ceiling instead of her curious eyes. Then he said, "It's true that Amara and I had a relationship, a close relationship, she was not just my girlfriend, she was my fiance."
