“The Gwendolyn I know, would hate these kids,” Tito smirks.


    He had doubts about her sincerity but he thinks her getting pregnant has changed her and made her more of a better person.


    “Yes, getting pregnant, I think has changed me,” Gwendolyn replied, rubbing her belly.


    She has the urge to vomit, her hand flies to cover her mouth and she rushes out of there. Tito scowls and takes a sip of the tea.

    “You look worse than ever, Mamma,” Noelloments with a disgusted look on his face.


    “I dress how I like, mind your business!” Fiore retorts and sits down.


    Noello rolls his and hisses.


    “Noello you are bing so rude these days” Noelleins.


    His attitude is getting worse every day.  “It’s not your business, I think everyone should mind their business in this house!” Noello yells and stabs the noodles with his fork making the soup in it ssh.


    “Noello!” Fiore scolds.


    He should be thankful that he’s not too close to her, she would have spanked him.


    “Noello, show your mom some respect especially when she’s talking to you, we didn’t raise you to be nasty and impolite,” Signora Ginvera mutters calmly.


    “Well grandma stop wasting your saliva, you are advising a lost cause, he’s a savage remember,” Noelle rants.


    “Shut up before I show you how savage I can be,” Noello pouts angrily, he didn’t wake up on the right side of the bed this morning.


    Fiore can’t ever have peace because her son keeps acting more like a jerk everyday.


    “I don’t know why I even have a twin brother” Noelle rolls her eyes.


    “Yes I don’t know why you are even alive, you should die, goodness!, I hate you!” He yells and she flinches frightfully.


    “Noello!!!” Fiore mutters in disbelief.


    “Grandma” Noelle cries and hugs Signora Ginvera


    Noello regrets yelling at her like that but doesn’t show it.  “You shouldn’t yell or bully your sister”


    “Thank you all for sessfully making me lose my appetite,” Noello yells and puts his hands on his hoodie pockets. He storms out of the dining room..


    Signora Ginvera gasps, she has never seen any child act like that. Noelle continues sobbing.


    “Baby don’t cry, I’m sure he didn’t mean what he said,” Fiore sighs and goes to pet her.


    “He wants me to die, he hates me,” Noello cries.


    “No baby”

    After getting the information he needed, he goes to the address, it’s just a few minutes walk to their house..


    Noello walks to the door.


    “Noello” Noelle mutters and he faces her.


    “What?” He asked, coldly.


    “Please don’t hate me” Noelle cried and ran to hug him.


    Noello rolls his eyes dramatically and sighs “I don’t hate you”.


    “That means you love me” She sobs.


    She doesn’t want to be called his baby sister but she acts like a baby most of the time.


    “Yes” He replied in a way that she didn’t understand.Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org.


    “I didn’t hear you”


    “Enough, someone is at the door” Noello pouts and yanks her hands off him.


    He goes to the door and opens it, he lifts his head to see Tito.


    “Mom’s boss” Noelle yells, immediately recognizing Tito.


    She rushes to him and grabs his hand and takes him inside, Noello is about to oppose but decides to keep quiet. Tito sits on the couch, surprised by the way she received him, she looks so cute.


    “Take your dirty eyes off my sister, what are you doing here, mom isn’t around!” Noello yells and their eyes meet.


    Noello balls his fist noticing the resemnce between them.


    “Wee, sir” Noelle smiles cutely, her eyes go to the bag he’s holding.


    “What’s in there?” Noelle asks, peeking into the bag.


    Tito almost smiles and brings out the box of chocte from the bag.  “Choctes!” Noelle screams and grabs the box from him.


    “Are you trying to entice us with your cheap gifts? You better get out if I call the police on you!” Noello yells seriously.


    “Be nice” Noelle puts at Noello.


    Tito doesn’t know how to treat children, so he decides to keep quiet.


    “Is it for us?”


    “Yes, Noelle, it’s for you” Tito ends up smiling and touches her hair.


    It’s her real hair, so he sneakily cuts out two strands, she didn’t feel anything. Noelle sits on the floor and opens the box, her mouth waters as she sees the yummy choctes.


    “Yummy” Noelle giggles.


    Tito puts the strands of hair in the bag and zips it.


    “Noelle, you are such a disappointment, like Mamma is going to scold the hell out of you, he’s a stranger !” Noello shrieks, staring at the choctes.


    He feels like eating them too but he doesn’t trust Tito one bit. Noelle eats almost half of the choctes at a fast pace.


    “Delicious,” She mutters with her mouth filled with the choctes.


    Tito smiles watching her, he looks like his mother, cheerful and the opposite of him and his father. Noello rushes to her and grabs the chocte box away. Noelle stands up.


    “Give that to me” She suddenly feels dizzy and strange, she holds her stomach in pain.


    She coughs out the chocte in her mouth and blood follows. Tito stands up seeing this.


    “Noelle” Noello calls feeling scared as blood drops from both her nostrils.


    “My stomach” Noelle screams in severe pain, Tito rushes to her, frightened as well.


    She coughs another handful of blood.


    “What have you done to my sister?” Noello yells.
