You, Me And Our Genus Twins

It was on purpose that Sebastian said these things in front of these childhood friends. He wasn't fond of gossip, so he never
mentioned to others the sordid things that Ann and Emma had done. Ann must've come here tonight with the intention of
infiltrating his circle of childhood friends through Grayson. If his childhood friends were unaware of the bad blood between him
and Ann, they'd certainly be nice to her out of courtesy for his and Grayson's sake.
He wouldn't let Ann have her own way. Since she was so eager to meet his childhood friends, he'd let her meet them. However,
he'd let his friends know what she and Emma had done. From now on, these two women could forget about bluffing and cheating
others in his name. He'd let all his childhood friends know that he no longer had anything to do with them. In the future, Ann and
Emma could never expect to receive preferential treatment or gain anything from his childhood friends.
He did nothing to hide his loathing for Emma in front of his childhood friends.
On the other hand, Grayson didn't know that Emma was secretly in love with Philip, nor did he know that she had crossed a line
with Sebastian by fantasizing that she was Philip's soulmate. He thought that Sebastian was only blaming her for her
involvement in Ann's scheme against him. Inwardly, he felt that his brother was kind of heartless.
Despite his seemingly cold disposition, he was, in fact, a man of feeling. He was endlessly forgiving of whoever he cared about,
and it was difficult for him to stop caring about them unless they had done something unforgivable. Therefore, he couldn't
understand Sebastian's readiness to break with his own maternal aunt and his cousin, with whom they had grown up as a child.
As a matter of fact, Grayson was a stony-faced man who had always looked cool and expressionless, but Sebastian knew him
very well. He knew what Grayson was thinking from the look in the latter's eyes alone. It was a good thing to be all heart, so he
wouldn't castigate Grayson for it. However, Grayson was his younger brother, so he wouldn't let him side with Ann. If she were a
virtuous lady, he wouldn't interfere in Grayson's private life. However, he was sick of the sight of her, so he wouldn't mistreat
himself by acknowledging her as his sister-in-law. He felt sick to the stomach whenever he saw her.
Unable to answer Sebastian's question, Grayson bowed his head without saying a word.
Sebastian looked at him while saying impassively, "Grayson, you've got two options right now. Either you cut all ties and be done
with Ann, or you make a clean break from our family and strike out on your own."

Grayson looked up at him in astonishment. "Sebastian?"
Sebastian looked at his astonished face with imperturbable eyes. "I hate it when someone who makes me feel sick whenever I
see them keeps showing up in front of me to seek my attention. Both you and I know very well Ann's purpose in moving into your
apartment. I won't accept her as my sister-in-law. If you want to marry her, then get out and set up your own family."
Grayson's face paled. "Sebastian, t-that's not what you told me last time..." Sebastian had only said last time that if he were to
be romantically involved with Ann, he'd have to hand over everything that the Hart Family had given to him. However, he didn't
say he'd have to cut all ties with the family...
"I've changed my mind now," Sebastian said flatly. "If you choose to stay with her, then leave our family and never show up
before me anymore. If you come around one day, then come back and I'll still acknowledge you as my younger brother."
Ann was stupefied after listening to Sebastian's words. What does Sebastian mean? Does he mean that as long as Grayson
marries me, he'll be kicked out of the Hart Family with nothing to his name like me? But if Grayson divorces me, he'll be able to
return to the Hart Family as their second son!
Sebastian's words amounted to a ticking time bomb between her and Grayson. If Grayson chose to be with her, as long as they
were disappointed with their future lives in the slightest, he'd be itching to leave her and return to the Hart Family. Wait a minute
—that's wrong. If Grayson will lose everything after marrying me, then why should I marry him?
She wanted to marry Grayson because she wanted to take advantage of his social standing to rejoin the Hart Family, return to
high society, and keep on living as a member of the upper crust. If he would be kicked out of the Hart Family with nothing to his
name like her after marrying her, then why should she marry him? What else could she gain by doing so?
The thought of this filled her with both anger and dread, making her feel as though her heart had been struck with a
sledgehammer; she felt so terrible that she almost passed out. This is so cruel... Sebastian is so cruel! He's cut off all
opportunities for me to return to high society and live in grandeur and luxury. How could he be so cruel? Did he forget I'm the
cousin he'd grown up with as a child?!
Trembling all over with rage, she stared hard at Sebastian while asking in a quavering voice, "W-Why are you doing this to me?
What have I done wrong for you to drive me into a corner? How could you treat me like this? I'm your cousin! D-Don't you have a

heart?"
"My dad does have a heart!" Joel flung himself into Sebastian's arms and embraced the man. Looking at her with his head tilted
to one side, he continued, "My dad is the most kindhearted person in the world! He's the kindest, the greatest, and the most
warmhearted person ever!"
Fixing the boy with a poisonous stare, Ann opened her mouth and wanted to say "F*ck off," but she bit back the words on the tip
of her tongue. She dared not say those words. Whenever she was in trouble, it'd always have something to do with either
Madeline or the two little b*stards. Whenever she met them, she'd be even more out of luck than before. Every time she thought
that she had hit rock bottom and that her luck couldn't have been worse, they'd teach her a lesson, letting her know that there
was no end to her misery. Not daring to try anything on them anymore, she could only glare bitterly at Joel with bloodshot eyes
while cursing inwardly, wishing that he and the other little b*stard would die a sudden death. Either a car accident, an illness, or
something that falls from upstairs and smashes them in the head... In any case, anything is fine as long as they're dead!
Joel wasn't afraid at all, though. Wrapping his arms around Sebastian's slender and muscular waist, he glared back at her
threateningly, saying, "You're the villain, while I'm the dragon-slaying warrior. I'm not scared of you!"
Sebastian was speechless. What sort of a dragon is Ann? That's too big a compliment for her!
Ann gnashed her teeth and withdrew her gaze before turning to look at Sebastian with teary eyes. "Seb... You've heard it
yourself. He calls me a villain! I only got angry because he insulted me first..."
"You say that my son insulted you? Did he?" Sebastian stroked Joel's hair. He said unhurriedly, "Only insulting language is called
an insult. When a person says something according to the facts, they're merely telling the truth. Joel didn't insult you; he was
only telling the truth by calling you a villain."
"W-What did you say?" Ann's eyes widened. "H-How could you say that?"
"Am I wrong?" Sebastian asked in reply. He continued impassively, "To me, whoever has violated the law is a villain. Do you dare
say that you've never violated the law?"
