Chapter 1313: Chapter 1313: Twin Sisters
"Maybe there really is such an amusing affair, I’m quite interested."
Felix Thompson silently diverted his gaze.
Apart from their eldest brother, the fifth brother was the only man he dared not provoke.
James Thompson’s gaze shifted as his tone changed.
"But what the sixth brother said makes sense; no matter what excuses you come up with now, the fact that you’ve upset and hurt my darling sister means you’re at fault."
"Yes, Charlotte will be staying here for the time being. When she feels like seeing you, we will contact you." Joshua Thompson stood with his hands behind his back and nodded at Justin Battleson.
"But..."
Before Justin Battleson could even finish his sentence, he was unceremoniously expelled from the yard by seven men.
Justin Battleson stood alone on the road.
He had never, in all his years, looked as disheveled as he did now.
His thumb brushed his lips, and the sharp sting at the corner of his mouth made him click his tongue softly.
"Not holding back at all, huh..."
Meanwhile, Charlotte Thompson in the living room greeted her returning brothers with a smile, but looking around, she noticed Justin was nowhere to be seen.
"Where’s Justin Battleson?" Charlotte asked.
"Of course, he was kicked out."
Jonathan Thompson plunked down into a chair and even managed to swindle a piece of fruit from Hank Thompson’s hand.
Charlotte Thompson, who had been thinking of peeking outside, turned around somewhat dazedly after hearing what was said.
"He... didn’t he offer any explanation?"
"Of course he explained, and I think his explanation was quite reasonable." Joshua Thompson nodded to Charlotte Thompson, relaying Justin’s explanation from earlier.
"Someone who looks exactly like me?" Charlotte gazed inquiringly in his direction.
"There really is someone in this world who looks exactly like Mommy? Is she Mommy’s twin sister?" Jack Thompson joined in the excitement, asking eagerly, "Like me and Chad?"
"That’s not the same thing." Henry Thompson ruffled Jack Thompson’s hair and shook his head as he spoke.
"Is it really possible for someone to look that similar?" Charlotte Thompson touched her own cheek.
"Finding someone resembling another is quite common."
"Not to mention, these days there are many technologies that can alter someone’s appearance," James Thompson chimed in to address Charlotte Thompson’s doubt.
"Listening to Justin’s explanation, yesterday was just an accident. They happened to bump into each other, which is why there was a lipstick mark left on his shirt."
Joshua Thompson nodded at Charlotte Thompson, then following James Thompson’s earlier conversational pivot, said, "But even so, what does that have to do with us not letting him in?"
The remaining few gave Joshua Thompson a thumbs up.
"Brothers, after all, this is a misunderstanding between me and Justin Battleson. I think some things should be cleared up between us, and furthermore..."
Charlotte paused there.
To be honest, she had indeed lied to Justin Battleson, and she owed him an apology.
"Furthermore..."
Before Charlotte Thompson could finish her sentence, it was abruptly physically interrupted by her third brother.
"Little sister, how can you be like this?"
Charlotte Thompson looked up, slightly puzzled, at Jason Thompson facing her.
"You can’t do this; you’ve already been bullied by Justin Battleson to the point of returning to your maternal home, and without him saying anything, you’re considering forgiving him?"
