Chapter 119: Intentional Distractions

That evening, Yuurei messaged Angelie that if she needed anything or wanted to talk to someone, she could always tell Yuurei. A few minutes passed before Angelie replied. Her only message was thanking Yuurei.

Akuma and Yuurei were sitting in the sofa inside the living room when Yuurei messaged Angelie. Yuurei screamed when she read Angelie's reply.

"What the hell happened to you?"

Akuma looked at his sister. He was holding a manga while leaning on the backrest of the sofa.

"I don't know what else I can do to help Onee-san… I told her she could talk to me anytime or she could ask me anything if she needed help. All she said was thanks…"

Yuurei kept on staring at the screen of her phone.

"So? Why are you shouting like a crazy person? She even thanked you."

Akuma raised his eyebrow while looking at Yuurei.

"I wanted her to actually talk to me or ask for my help!"

Yuurei turned her head and glared at her brother.
