Genius Girl Chapter 46 - 46: Wake up Bratty!

Chapter 46 - 46: Wake up Bratty!

The bright morning lit up in the living room, showing the three people sleeping on the couch.

Anders, who had just left the kitchen was shocked to see his boss Evan sleep sitting on the single sofa while Matthew and Daniella were sleeping tightly on the long couch.

Anders scratched a hand at the back of his head when he noticed that Matthew's foot was so close to Daniella's face, while Daniella's feet were on Matthew's chest.

(How did they end up like this?)

He walked towards the sofa quietly, few empty bottles and shattered gla.s.ses were on the carpet, one would think that someone had a fight in the living room with all the mess around.

Ander's heard Matthew groaning when he picked up the gla.s.ses on the floor, he turned and saw Matthew's eyes gradually opening.

Matthew lowered his sight to his chest and found the familiar feet with a few callous on the heels, his face immediately poker.

He lifted a finger and tried tickling her foot but, Daniella didn't move.

Matthew sneakered, a playful thought came in his mind. He moved his foot next to Daniella's face and poked her cheek with his toe.

Still, she's not waking up.

"Do you want me to wake her up?" Anders whispered to Matthew.

Matthew shook his head, with a grin on his face he used his toe to tickle Daniella's ear.

Soon, Daniella woke up, a ticklish feeling on her ear was the reason why she woke up. She turned her face, and it immediately went flat after seeing a foot so close to her face.

She slapped the foot in front of her and slightly lifted her head to look at the owner.

Seeing Matthew grinning at her, Daniella's face wrinkled, he used her feet on his chest to kick his face.

"Ouch!" Matthew groaned, holding the part of his face that got kicked by Daniella.

"You are so disgusting Matthew. Get up, you stinky monster," Daniella yelled at Matthew.

Sleep-sitting on the sofa, Evan woke up by the voice of a woman yelling, he opened his eyes and found Matthew and Daniella kicking each other's faces.

He rose an eyebrow, head throbbed with a hangover. He blinked to straight-up his mind but, it's still blurry.

"Evan, it's 8 am, the driver is waiting outside," said Anders, he had just finished cleaning all the bottles in the carpet.

Evan nodded and looked at Matthew and Daniella, the two were fighting like kids.

"What happened to them?" Evan asked, accepting the water that Anders handed to him.

Anders shrugged both shoulders, unsure of how to explain it.

Then, Ander turned to Daniella, "Ms. Chen, Selena's school will start at 10, she's still sleeping."

Hearing that, Daniella stopped from kicking Matthew and immediately got up, thankfully she changed her robe with pajama or else everyone would have seen her scars.

"Hey Ella, come back here, we are not finished," Mathew yelled as he watched Daniella rushing upstairs.

"Why are you here Matthew? Your house is just next door," Evan coldly said as he got up.

Evan still had his clothes from last night, he hasn't changed or taken a shower, mind tried to reminisced what happened last night but everything was blurred.

"I was drunk Evan, can you bring me home please?" saying that, Matthew raised his arms and waited for Evan to pick him up.

Evan sighed, he turned to Anders and said, "Pick him up and throw him out of my house, if he comes back, call the police," and he gave Matthew a piercing look before leaving the place.

-

"Bratty wake-up!" Daniella impudently shouted as soon as she slammed the door opened and saw Selena sleeping on the bed in the same position as yesterday.

The little girl didn't wake up.

Daniella stopped next to the bed, seeing Selena's closed eyes, she's certain that the girl is faking it.

Daniella rolled her eyes, hands rested on her sides stretched to grab the blanket over Selena's.

The girl is still faking her sleep, Daniella could see how Selena struggles to remain her eyes closed.

Daniella might not have a hangover like Evan and Matthew but, her body is sore and she doesn't have the patience to deal with Selena right now.

She crossed her arms and tapped a foot on the floor repeatedly.

"Selena, if you don't get up in 3 minutes, I am going to burn all your clothes, including your candy magazine so, get up and take a shower." her voice was calm but deep, suppressing herself from yelling.

Selena, on the other hand, didn't take her threat seriously, thinking Daniella will never dare to burn her clothes.

"120 seconds."

Selena heard Daniella's flat voice counting the seconds, she didn't move, determined to stay on her bed.

Daniella took in a shaky sigh, her feet moved towards the door when her mind started the countdown.

When the times up, Daniella rose an eyebrow, amazed by Selena's att.i.tude, she's stubborn as a rock.

She left the room, went downstairs and asked the maid to bring her a lighter and a fire extinguisher.

The maid she asked was confused but, gave what she asked for and without explaining herself, she left the kitchen.

Daniella was hoping that Selena would be awake when she comes back but seeing the girl on the bed, hiding her body under the blanket, a deep sigh let out from her lips.

She walked towards the small coffee table next to the single sofa, she grabbed all the magazines in there including the recent magazine which Selena hasn't read.

"Selena, if you don't get up now, I am going to burn all this magazine. I am going to count to three."

"one"

"two"

Daniella turned her face at the bed only to see Selena still laying on it.

With no option left, Daniella tossed all the magazines to the floor.

Daniella squatted in front of it, for the last time, she looked at Selena and the girl was still on the bed.

She picked up one and fired it up, then she put it on top of a mountain magazine on the floor.

The fire reflected in Daniella's eyes, she watched as the paper turned into ashes.

Then, the alarm goes on, followed by the water raining in the whole room.

Selena got up, water dropped on her face and her body, she looked at her side and found Daniella sitting on the floor with crossed legs while her magazines which still unopened were turning into ashes.

The door slammed opened and a figure of worried Evan appeared with Anders next to him holding an umbrella

"What is happening here?"

Daniella turned her head and with a flat and soaked face, she said, "I asked that brat to get up but she doesn't want so to save time, I give a shower on her bed," after explaining that, Daniella used the fire extinguisher to put out the remaining fire.

Evan and Anders were dumbfounded by Daniella's reason. While Selena jumped out of her bed and looked at her uncle Evan.

"Fire her Uncle! She burned my magazine!" she yelled, glaring at Daniella.

Daniella got up, face was calm despite the s.a.d.i.s.tic glare coming from Selena.

"Hey, you little brat! I gave you three minutes to get up, be thankful I didn't throw you out of the window. Since your already washed, why don't you put on your uniform?"

Daniella turned to walked towards the door but, she was stopped in the middle when Selena yelled at her.

"Ugh! I hate you!"

Daniella faced the fuming little girl with a smirk on her lips, "You're gonna have to save that dear, we will be like this for a year. This is just our first day so tomorrow when I say get up, you need to get up because next time, you will find yourself in the middle of the Sahara." saying it with a threat Daniella turned to Evan.

She stared at him for a moment before pointing at the portrait she saw yesterday, "Is that Matthew's father?" she asked.

Evan followed the trail of her finger, his eyebrow creased with confusion after seeing his father.

"No, that's my dad, everyone mistook him from his brother."

Daniella shut her eyes, and when it opened it was emotionless, irises turning into black.

"When was this photo taken?"

Without hesitating, Evan replied, "It was just after my brother died," then he looked at Selena who had just slammed the door of the bathroom closed.

Then he continued, "Around seven years ago."

Getting her answers, Daniella left the room quietly. Her mind is convinced of one thing, this family has more connection to her than she thought, Evan's father that stole her mother's corpse for an unknown reason, Kierry saving her that night and Evan, the only man she couldn't read, they are all connected and she knows that she will only get the answer by staying.
