Ziggy frowned at the classless woman in front of him, feeling that there was something familiar with her appearance.
A second later, she was already standing in front of him.
Ziggy was stunned silent as he saw the face that differed very little from Rachel's.
'This woman looks like mommy!'
He also recognized the wrong person at the ball.
It took him a little while before realizing it was his mommy's twin sister, Rue!
Now, that woman was standing in front of him.
'She is Josh's mother?!'
'Rue is Josh's mother?!'
He went into deep thought. Was that the reason Josh and him felt close? Was it because their mothers were twins?
"Josh! You're getting more and more arrogant, aren't you?!"
Rue, in her furious state, could not find anything to release her wrath but Ziggy who was standing in front of her.
Ziggy looked at Rue coldly. He did not have a good impression of his mommy's twin sister.
Seeing Ziggy's squint, Rue staggered a few steps back.
Ziggy's action looked exactly like Edward’s, which shocked her for a moment.
After recovering from that, she lurched forward and grabbed Ziggy's wrist irately.
"Josh, what is the meaning of that?!"
Ziggy looked at Rue boldly, without any respect or fear. "What is the meaning of what?"
Rue gritted her teeth. "You haven't yet greeted me or addressed me! Do you even think of me as your mother?!"
Ziggy shot an aloof gaze at Rue. "If you think that I don't think of you as a mother, please, continue to do so."
Surprised, Rue looked at Ziggy who talked back at her. "You!"
'This is Josh's first time talking back to me!'
What Rue did not know was that this was not the respectful Josh she was grabbing in her hand, but the sassy Ziggy.
Rue then raised her hand, preparing to slap Ziggy. "Alright, you! Now that your wings have matured, I see you don't take me seriously anymore, is it?! You dare talk back to me?!"
Her slap had not even found its mark when Ziggy's tiny hand grabbed her wrist.
His eyes were frigid. "If you so much as lay a hand on me, I will call the police, saying I have been abused. When the news eventually gets hold of the piece, I believe the Bennet household will be very, very popular."
Rue was completely stunned by Ziggy's threat.
The Bennets had just gone through a critical period, they could not endure another event!
If they were in any sort of trouble, the Bennet would need her help!
Rue bit down hard on her jaw. If Edward found out about this, he would immediately divorce her.
With that, she balled up her palm and withdrew her hand.
"Josh, you're crossing the line! Who taught you to threaten your mother, I gave birth to you!"
Ziggy scoffed and looked at his reddened wrist due to the strength Rue had employed. His eyes immediately burned with cold fury.
"It's not too late now."
Ziggy made a commitment — he had to make sure that Rue no longer dared to bully Josh!
If not, Rue would continue to abuse Josh even after they returned to their real identity.
Clack clack clack— Rue immediately ran downstairs in her heels. She held Ziggy's hand with a pretentious, gentle smile.
"Josh, your father's home, let's go welcome him!"
Ziggy made no response to Rue's two-faced behavior as he remained seated coldly.
"You weren't this gentle to me just a moment ago, mother. Where have you learned this acting technique? It is so good!"
Rue maintained her smile but employed a threatening tone to her voice in the face of Ziggy's mocking.
"You better cooperate, or everyone will end up unhappy!"
Ziggy flung away Rue's hand and put on a calm smile. "Don't worry. No matter who will end up unhappy, it won't be me."
He traipsed toward the door and looked at the man who took off his jacket, momentarily stunned by the similarities in their appearance.
'Why would Josh's father be so similar to me?'
'Could it be that Josh's father has a twin as well?'
'Did mommy marry Josh's father's twin, so Josh and I looked so similar, and Josh's father and I looked so similar?'
'Did mommy's twin Rue and mommy married Edward Bluemel and his twin respectively, and so that's why I look identical to Josh?!'
