Crimson's Revenge
118 Saving Face 01
Her aunt Lily who normally took a neutral stand in such family matters approached her and gently held her arm.
She was one of the people that Seth and Lilith tried their best to convince to be on their side as like his older brother position in the family and is one of the people who makes the big decisions for the family.
Charles and Lily both had neutral stance when it comes to their younger brother's situation but she similar with Charles greatly cherished their face in society [1]. She also genuinely cared for this young niece of her but since she decided to take a neutral stance she didn't really show her care for her.
She believes it is the problem of Seth's family and she doesn't have any right to interfere.
She too did not approve of his choice marrying Elena, regardless of this fact Reen was a child born from Elena and Seth making her the mother of her niece which outweighs the mistress Lilith by miles in her eyes.
Seeing even an outsider bullying her niece she could not help but glare at Lilith which made her sweat drop and softly coxed the crying girl
"That's not true at all, we are very happy you're here now Reen. Don't try to galloped across Europe [2] now… It's been quite a while since you last visited us so stay a bit longer. Lilith and Seth are just not in the best moods, don't mind what they say one bit." Glancing at the couple which made them lower their head seeing her piercing gaze.
Hue and Wisteria explained Reen's absence to their gatherings by her being busy at school. As she also didn't really remember them with her memory loss it would only be awkward for her to attend such events. They were a bit skeptically of this reasoning but still conceded in the end.
Despite her low impression of Lilith and slight disproval of Seth's action, at the end of the day she was still Seth's new wife and Seth was still her brother so she couldn't openly berate them. Seeing how obvious Lily protected them, Reen could not help but mocked them mentally.
"Regardless of what they do wrong, in her eyes it would only be a minor thing."
She mentally though quite disappointed with this family. Despite her bad relationship with Seth she still did love even a bit these uncle and aunts of hers even knowing they didn't approve of her mother at least they didn't mistreat them when her siblings was alive.
But now, all that was left were disappointment and regret for their blindness at the viciousness of their son who could even commit murder without batting his eye [3]
Hiding her emotions and misgiving professionally she turned to look at Lily.
"It's alright aunt, you don't have to say anything…" indicating she knew she that Lily was in fact dismissing the issue as a silly argument and she was just overreacting.
