Chapter 2220 Anna's Resolve

"Don't worry grandma, I will pa.s.s the trial and enter our heritage land to unseal my great-grandaunt. Then, show her that she was wrong. Your marriage with Grandpa was the best thing that could ever happen to our family and the Southern region, Anna promised without taking her family's heritage land trials seriously despite her grandma informing her that none in the last few generations have managed to pa.s.s it.

"I know you can do it, honey, Colleen did not doubt her granddaughter's ability. n.o.body dared to say the grandina and granddaughter pair were being overconfident as only time would tell them that. "Grandma, come to think of it, though you lived a hard life it was a rewarding one," Anna summed up what she thought about her grandma's life. She now believed more than ever that her grandma was luck incarnate as many do not get to see the fruits of their hard work their entire life.

"It sounds to me that you are jealous of your grandma, Colleen concluded from Anna's words. She wasn't surprised as her life despite its ups and downs was indeed a rewarding one.

"Yes, I am. My entire life so far I spent suppressing my true desires and doing what I was told and taught to please my mother at the risk of me going insane. Now, look where it got me. I got a weirdo calling herself my twin sister for an origin card and my mother cares about that weirdo more than her flesh and blood. This p.i.s.ses me off," Ann said as she emptied her virgin c.o.c.ktail and slammed the gla.s.s on the table.

Colleen looked at her granddaughter in surprise and asked, "I thought you did not care about what your mother thought of you."

"I don't. I am angry that my life so far amounted to nothing" Anna said as her eyes tried to find her rebellious origin card and mother in the crowd.

"What gave you that idea? Ann, your twin sister is the result of your life so far, Colleen enlightened her lost granddaughter pointing at her second granddaughter, and continued to add, "You guys might be polar opposite but she is the acc.u.mulation of your experience so far. It is just that you both have different takes on your life so far. The important thing to remember here is that both of those takes originated from you, who is right or wrong is secondary. It is as simple as that."

Listening to her grandma, Anna stared hard at Ann who was busy attending and pleasing the guests to please their mother. Just then feeling an intense gaze on her Ann turned to find it. As a result, their gazes met. A second later Ann genuinely smiled at her twin and returned to what she was doing while the latter grumbled to their grandma, "Fine, I accept her as my twin and give sharing a try but if she doesn't behave and things don't work out I am locking her in my origin card forever. When that happens, do not tell me I did not warn guys beforehand.

"I don't believe you," Colleen provoked Anna to make sure her granddaughter would not go back on her word over every little thing about Ann that ticked her off.

"If I said I am going to do it then I am going to do it. I am a Heatsend, we never go back on our words" Anna declared falling for her grandma's trap.

"No, I still don't trust you. What about Chum-Chum?' Colleen brought up Anna's beloved pet, the pixie dragon, to test her resolve.

"Yes, what about Chum-Chum?" Anna stared at her grandma not liking where the conversation was headed.

"You know you have to share Chum-Chum too, right?" Colleen found the spooked Anna cute like a little spooked rabbit.

"No, way. Chum-Chum is my friend. Where is it written that I have to share my friends with my

siblings?" Anna hurriedly defended, not liking the thought of Chum-Chum and Ann playing together. "You don't have to share your friends but what if Chum-Chum wants to be friends with Ann? Then you will have to share Chum-Chum with your younger twin," Colleen patiently pointed out to her granddaughter who was just learning what it meant to have a sibling.

"Chum-Chumm only likes me and will only be friends with me, Anna said but then thinking of a possibility she added, "If Chum-Chum doesn't want to be friends with Ann then I don't have to share Chum-Chum with her, right?"

"Sure, Colleen nodded seriously but snickered in her heart thinking, 'It is hard for me to tell you two apart let alone that little pixie dragon. I hope it doesn't get scared or lose its mind seeing there are two of you.'

"Then, great. Chum-Chum will not be friends with anyone but me. Sharing is going to be easier than I thought,' Anna exclaimed confidently while Colleen verbally pushed her to put her words into action demanding. "Now, go support your mother and sister in entertaining the guests!

"Why would I do that? You do it, they are your daughter and granddaughter too," Anna wittily retorted.

Palace staff cleaning the cluttered table nearby s.h.i.+vered in terror hearing Anna's reply to their queen. No one in the South dared to tell the queen what to do maybe not even the Southern Ruler but Anna did. Not to mention, since when was it the turn of the Southern Queen to entertain the guests? The guest would not dare to accept such hospitality. Feeling he heard something he should not have, the staff hurriedly masked his terror and minded his business while blocking his ears with his soul energy as he did not want to be mistakenly charged with the crime of eavesdropping on the royals.

As for Colleen, she did not care about Anna's rudeness, as she preferred it. However, she sternly repeated to Anna, "I said go help your mother and sister."

"This is not fair. I don't force you to do things that you don't want to, Anna quibbled as she reluctantly got up from her seat and headed toward her mother and sister.
