Rebirth of the Villainous Female Boss
Chapter 1425 - Chapter 1425 Chapter 1397 Could It Be Because of This

Chapter 1425: Chapter 1397: Could It Be Because of This? Chapter 1425: Chapter 1397: Could It Be Because of This? The living room outside was left to the three siblings to play, with their young aunt watching over them.

“Was that sister-in-law you were talking to familiar with you?” Aka asked Kiara as he helped her put the eggs in the kitchen.

“We’re neighbors from the same courtyard, so naturally, we’re quite familiar. Oh, and she has a twin, a twin sister.”

The word “twins” made Aka’s heart ache again, “Then their sisterly bond must be very strong.”

There couldn’t be another pair of twins in the world like us, with no affection and only awkwardness between them.

“Heh, strong? Do you know what happened last time?”

Kiara led Aka into the house, as these words couldn’t be spoken in front of the children; the adults’ disputes could subconsciously impact the innocent children.

Once inside, Kiara explained the grudge between the sisters Liu Lan and Liu Min.

After hearing it, Aka felt his worldview, no, his entire perception, was about to shatter!

“You mean… that sister is like a madwoman, dead set on not wanting her sister to be well?”

“Why are you so shocked? What she did doesn’t seem as disgusting as what that twin of yours did, does it?”

Kiara finished speaking and then shook her head, “No, that’s not right; actually, the nature of it is quite similar. It’s just that the one you encountered has a higher level of education and more methods of harming you, including but not limited to stealing your things, and giving you implanted negative psychological suggestions, and so on. That Liu Lan just uses the traditional housewife tactics like making a scene and throwing tantrums.”

Although their methods were different, the nature of the malice was the same; both did not want the other to have a good life.

“Why is it like this…” Aka was distressed, sniffling.

“Actually, I think, since we came from the same mother, we should have better feelings for each other because… we are the only family we have in this world.”

Kiara shrugged her shoulders, “Yeah, and she’s using that sentiment against you. The more you treat her as family, the more it hurts when she betrays you.”

“I don’t understand why…”

“People are different; that’s the reason. Twins can be like Camden and his sister who are closely bonded and supportive of each other, and there can be those who don’t get along and are hostile to each other. If you think of this as human instinct, would you feel a bit better?”

“Not really, I’m still very sad.”

Aka couldn’t remember when her relationship with her sister had become so stiff. They had taken different paths, and she always remembered that she had a sister, but her sister had always been trying to take her things and was full of resentment toward her.

“Liu Lan and Liu Min, the main reason for the conflict between the sisters is jealousy, which is the comparison we talked about today. They both started at the same point at birth, but over time, as their lives diverged, and one lived well while the other did not, the inability to turn negative emotions into motivation without the ability to strive simply resulted in cunning tactics to vent their inner dissatisfaction.”

“Then comparing their situation to mine isn’t appropriate.”

Aka hesitated for a moment and then revealed a secret from her heart.

“Actually… Mrs. Kiara, I have a secret. When we were at the orphanage, people from JR came to pick one of us sisters for an experiment. They performed an intelligence test, specifically to see how much the IQs of twins differed. And the result… you should understand.”

Kiara nodded, “I understand.”

Akate must have been left way behind, otherwise they wouldn’t have adopted only one twin. Kiara had competed with Molly, and that girl must have an exceptional IQ – Kiara could lose to her with just a moment’s slackness.

“You’ve seen it too, we’re twins but the only similarity we have are our faces. She has a better figure, higher IQ, makes more money, and is better at speaking… I can’t understand why, when she’s so much better than me at everything, she still looks down on me.”

The two chatted in the room when suddenly they heard the children in the living room start to make noise, and the Young Aunt knocked on the door in panic.

“Dr. Clark, please come quick, the kids are fighting!”

Kiara quickly stood up and went out. In the living room, Wendy was sitting on top of Ian, hitting him. Ian was a few months older and much rounder than Wendy, but he wasn’t as agile, and with Wendy clamping onto his arm with her teeth, he cried out loudly.

Zoe heard the noise and hurried out of the bathroom, not understanding how the siblings could start fighting in the short time it took to use the restroom.

“What happened here?” Kiara asked the Young Aunt.

“Wendy was eating a peach when Yoyo came over to snatch it. At first, Wendy let him have it and picked another one for herself, but when Yoyo tried to take the second one, Wendy got angry. After Yoyo hit her, Wendy just…” clamped on and refused to let go.

The Young Aunt explained nervously to Kiara, “Dr. Clark, I had just gone to cut the fruits, and in the blink of an eye it happened… I couldn’t stop it in time…”

She had been working at Kiara’s home for a long time and enjoyed a pleasant relationship with the family. Kiara was generous but had high expectations, and the Young Aunt worried that this incident might affect her standing with her employer.

“It’s alright, don’t worry about it. It’s normal for children to have some conflicts and friction,” Kiara said, bending down to inspect Ian’s chubby arm.

Thankfully, the skin wasn’t broken, but the bruising was inevitable.

Feeling deeply wronged, Ian wailed loudly. Zoe came over to check on his brother, then turned to his sullen sister and tried to soothe each of them. The children, who hadn’t minded much before, now both felt aggrieved and cried even louder, almost raising the roof.

Mario had heard the commotion from the hallway, and as he opened the door, he walked into a scene resembling the outbreak of World War III.

“I knew it had to be you two little guys. Come on, give Uncle a hug!” Mario reached out and lifted Ian up. The little guy, seeing his beloved uncle, finally felt some solace and tugged hard on Mario’s hat.

Mario placed his hat onto the little guy’s head. With the hat too large for Ian’s small head, it comically teetered without falling off, and this elicited a smile through his tears.

Kiara then spent some time persuading and educating Wendy, mainly stressing the importance of restraint in retaliation. It wasn’t unacceptable to fight back when bullied, but excessive responses like biting her brother were inappropriate. After handing the rowdy kids over to Mario to watch, Kiara called Isaac.

“Isaac, Wendy bit Ian. Here’s what happened…” Kiara briefly explained the situation, “I checked and the skin isn’t broken, so he probably won’t need a shot.”

“It’s normal for children to have conflicts. Our mom used to say he’s just like Edward when he was little. I’ve guided him many times already, but it seems to have little effect. When it comes to professional techniques, I don’t think I’m doing enough. Mrs. Kiara, do you have any good methods?” This set of sisters-in-law discussed such matters in a way unlike others – they even turned a conversation about children fighting into a professional discussion.

“It’s okay, children have their own rules of play at different stages. At this age, when kids fight over toys, it usually signifies–”

Mrs. Kiara was about to explain the issue to Isaac when she caught a glimpse of Akate from the corner of her eye. A thought flashed through her mind – could it be that the reason Akatenango had been targeting Akate all along was–!
