Little Tyrant Doesn't Want to Meet with a Bad End Chapter 20: Big Brother, I Love You

At the Ascart dining room table, Roel, who had been in the midst of his mental healing process, suddenly noticed that there was something amiss with his dear adopted sister.

He looked above Alicia’s head, and bewilderment surfaced in his eyes.

Hm? Where are my Affection Points? It’s not growing anymore?

Alicia had always been Roel’s biggest client when it comes to Affection Points. He could expect to see an ocean of green light every dinner, as his Affection Points shot right through the roof, but astonishingly, Alicia had been quiet for the entire dinner. There weren't even the slightest Affection Points coming out of her at the moment.

Is it that Alicia isn’t green anymore, or that my eyes are playing tricks on me?

Roel was a little perplexed, thinking that something wrong might have happened to the System. However, when he turned his head over, he saw something green popping up above Carter’s head.

Anyone who dared make Alicia unhappy right now was practically a mortal enemy who was out for his life! Such a person deserved to be pinned to the ground, beaten to a pulp, and stomped into the earth.

With such vicious thoughts in mind, Roel began gently asking the silver-haired girl the reason behind her unhappiness, but astonishingly, she refused to speak at all.

Huh? What’s going on here?

The confused Roel pondered for a moment before asking once more with an even gentler voice.

“Alicia, is there something bothering you?”

“…”

“Is it something that you can’t tell me?”

“…”

Roel continued asking several more questions, but Alicia insisted on maintaining her silence, leaving him deeply perplexed.
