Chapter 47 Alienation (Part Two)

Terri looked at them incredibly. There seemed to be a subtle change between them.

"I'll buy whatever you want. As for these two rabbits, I'll ask someone to make a house for them one
day."

He knew that she liked them, and he began to try to like everything she liked.

"Bill, I already have one. But I still want to thank you." She refused again.

Thank you. The two words sounded like a sharp pain in his ears. Did she begin to be polite or just grew
up? If it was before, she might have held his neck and kissed him on the face.

But now, she only said thanks to him coldly, which made him feel uncomfortable.

After dinner, he asked her to come to the study and talked to her. But he still minded her thanks tonight.

He didn't want a gap between them.

Euralia changed her clothes and came to his study. She looked around first and then sat down.

"Bill, what do you want me to do here?" Although something was not mentioned anymore, it didn't
mean that she had forgotten them. She just had been on guard against him.

"Euralia, do you still remember that you kept pets in the past?" He mentioned this on purpose to show
that he had begun to respect her decisions and that he would not force her to do anything.

She nodded.

She bought a pet dog without his consent at that time, and then he gave it to someone else when she
went to school. After she came back, she cried the whole night.



"Bill, why did you promise me to keep pets this time?"

"Because you like that. As long as you like, I won't stop you." Bill expressed himself straightforwardly.

"Thank you for your understanding. I'm very happy." Sitting there motionless, Euralia looked very
serious.

This atmosphere made him very dissatisfied. He preferred the former little girl who felt relaxed seeing
him. But she seemed to have changed. At first, he thought she was just more considerate.

But now he found that besides being considerate, there were also some changes. It seemed that they
could no longer be intimate as before, as if there was a gap between them.

As soon as Euralia finished her words, she didn't say anything more. At the same time, Bill was silent.
The atmosphere in the study became awkward. She kept playing with her fingers.

Bill continued looking for something to talk about, but both of them avoided talking about those
unhappy things happened in the past. However, they didn't talk about anything referring to the future.

Because he didn't know how their relationship would be in the future. Would he be her brother forever?
He was not reconciled to that at all.

"Bill, if there is nothing else, I will go out first." Euralia stood up.

"How's the wound on your arm?" Sitting next to her, Bill reached out his hands and grabbed her arms
out of habit.

By instinct, she got rid of his hands.

"Yes, I'm much better. But there are still some scars on it. I don't want to scare you. You'd better not
see it." She politely refused to have any physical contact with him.



His heart sank. He could tell that his little girl became vigilant. She was not so close to him as before,
even though now he didn't have any desire.

"Go back and have a good rest." Bill did not retain her.

Euralia nodded and walked towards the door.

It was then that he noticed that she was wearing clothes for going out. When they were at home before,
she always wore pajamas and nightgowns and wandered around.

"Are you going out?" He checked the time. It was already ten o'clock. He asked in a worried tone.

"I don't want to go out. I have already taken a bath, and I'm going back to sleep." As soon as she
answered, she disappeared at the door of the study.

His eyes darkened.

As he got up and walked out of the study, he found that she had not only changed her pajamas, but
also brought a cell phone, because it had been left on the desk.

He was sure that she didn't trust him so much. Perhaps, it was because he had an improper desire for
her before. If he had to blame someone, he would have never done it on impulse.

He picked up the phone and came to her bedroom door. He tried to open the door as usual. He found
that the door was locked, but it should be open at this time in the past.

"Who?" Her voice came from the room.

"Your phone." Bill replied.

After a while, Euralia opened the door, stuck her head out and took the phone from his hand.



"Don't bother me anymore at this time from now on. I will go to bed early." She reminded him.

"Euralia..."

Bill swallowed his words back.

Indeed, she was not a little girl anymore. He knew clearly that she would need private space when she
grew up.

"What's wrong? Bill? Euralia stared at him with her eyes wide open.

"It's all right. Go to bed early. I'll take you to school tomorrow morning." Without saying anything more,
Bill turned around and went back to his room.

She knew her brother must be unhappy because of what she said just now. But this was the only way
she could protect herself. She couldn't fall in love with her brother.

She didn't want to be blamed by others, even if they were not siblings at all.

After closing the door, she turned over in bed and began to play with her phone. After coming back
from the forest, her brother bought her a new phone, and the phone number was still the same as
before.

Then she found a text from a familiar number in the message box.

"Euralia, you asked for it!"

And it was Mandy.

At this moment, she was sure that the kidnapping must have something to do with Mandy!
