Chapter 17


    However, Aiden quickly snapped back to reality. He realized this must be Alex, the person his mother


    used to mention. But he didn’t expect Alex to show up at the doorstep of his home.


    “Wow, you really look like me! No wonder everyone in your house mistook me for you!”


    Alex was staring at Aiden with his curious wide eyes. Even though he knew he had a half–brother after


    arriving here, he was still shocked to see a face exactly like


    his


    “We’re identical twins, so of course we look alike.”


    In contrast, Aiden seemed very calm, his slightly wrinkled face was just like Emmett’s.


    “Huh? How do you know we’re identical twins?” Alex still blinked his big eyes curiously.


    “Did you sneak out from my house?” Aiden, seeing Alex wearing pajamas, nced at the mansion but


    didn’t answer his question.


    “Yes!” Alex nodded dumbly.


    “So, are you nning for us to just stand here and talk?”


    “Then where should we go?” Alex pouted his lips, grabbed Aiden’s hand, and walked towards a side


    path. “Can we talk here? You haven’t answered my question yet. When did you know we were identical


    twins?”


    “Whenever you found out was when I did.”


    Alex gave him a sidelong nce, feeling a bit unhappy. What kind of answer was that? “Why are you


    as cold as your dad?” He pouted, clearly dissatisfied.


    “Do you dislike him too?” Aiden asked calmly. “Him,” of course, referred to Emmett. He calmly looked at


    Alex and said, “You and your mom look alike.”


    Both were very lively. Standing beside this identical twin brother who suddenly emerged, Aiden didn’t


    feel any disgust.


    “Have you seen my mom?” Alex’s little eyes were filled with curiosity, and his longing for his mom


    deepened.


    “Mm–hmm.”


    “My mom is the best, unlike your dad who always forces me to study and doesn’t let me eat anything!


    Who would like him?” Alex crossed his little arms, stubbornly tilting his head. “My mom is the best!”


    “She is indeed very good….” Aiden’s face was still calm, but he had a sense of appreciation towards


    ra in his heart. “It would be even better if she didn’t feed me so much junk food!”


    He rubbed his little belly, feeling a little ufortable.


    “Who do you think is the older brother?” Alex suddenly blinked his big eyes curiously.


    “I’m the older one.” Aiden was very serious and very firm.


    “How do you know? Maybe I’m older!” Alex pouted, not wanting to be outdone.


    “Alright, let’s not discuss this today. We both sneaked out, and if we don’t go back soon, we’ll definitely


    be found out. Here’s my phone number! Memorize it, and we’ll get in touch after we get back.”


    Aiden’s expression changed slightly, and he changed the subject. He wasn’t sure who the older brother


    was, but if they were indeed twins, he thought his intelligence


    would make him the older one.


    “Okay, I’ll give you my number too, but. Alex’s face suddenly became serious.


    “What’s wrong?”


    “I’m too far from home, there doesn’t seem to be any transportation to take me home, and I don’t have


    any money… Mum didn’t give me any pocket money.”


    Alex lowered his head, looking a bit depressed. His longing for ra made him feel a bit emotional.


    “Here you go.” Aiden took a hundred–dor bill from his pocket and handed it to him. I’ll call a cab for


    you. When you get home, remember to sneak in. Mom should still be working in the study at this time


    and may not have noticed that I’m gone. Let me know when you get home.”

    He gave Alex a lot of instructions, like an older brother.


    “Okay, I got it. Thank you, temporary big brother….”


    Alex gave a slight smile and nced at the money in his hand. After all, he was in a strange


    environment and had to ept help. What was the harm in calling him big brother!


    At the Melendez family’s mansion.
