"The injuries are minimal, but I would recommend that you see another doctor for further examination," Seiji said before standing up.

He wanted to say that she had not been injured significantly, and her arm would recover within a few days even without rest and elevation. However, the fall had been too dramatic to say things casually.

"What do you mean? Aren\'t you a renowned doctor? Can\'t you treat her?" Kaoru shouted in a shrill and shrewish manner as she returned to her daughter\'s side to help her stand.

Seiji rested his irritated eyes on her, making her remember her place. Even though she was his aunt, she did not have a lot of rights in this home. If Sayaka had not taken a liking to her daughter, she would not have a reason to come to the mansion frequently.

"I am just worried about Hanae. She has only her hands to depend on in the future. As a pianist, her hands are her life." She lowered her voice.

"How did you fall?" Sayaka asked incredulously while looking at Hanae.

She could not figure it out. One minute, they had been walking up the stairs and suddenly, the girl had toppled.

Hanae, who had just stood up, glanced at Akira who was still standing a few steps up on the stairs and shrunk back in her mother\'s arms.

The implication was obvious. Kaoru looked venomously at Akira.

"Did someone shove you down? Speak up! I\'m sure that your aunt will stand up for you." She spoke in a soft tone but everyone could hear her.

Sayaka frowned at the implication that Akira had shoved Hanae down the stairs. However, she had not seen what had happened, and it was strange for Hanae to have fallen just like that. She did not know what to say.

Hanae shook her head a little.

"I\'m sure Akira did not shove me down. Maybe, she lost control of her suitcase." Hanae said in a small voice.

"What do you mean she lost control of her suitcase? It is just a small bag. And if she had allowed someone else to carry it, this would not have happened." Kaoru retorted.

Seiji and Daiki looked at the two people with cold eyes.

The other people were a little tongue-tied because the case seemed clear. Moreover, they were familiar with Hanae, so it was natural to believe someone close to them.

Kazuo looked at the cold little sister at the top of the stairs, looking down like a queen in her castle. She did not have a hint of apology in her eyes, and she did not attempt to explain the situation.

A little disappointment arose in his heart. She looked as adorable as she had when she was a little child, but she was no longer the little dumpling who used to run after him all the time, calling him big brother.

He hoped she would abandon her cynical ways since she was back in their family.

In his mind, he had already created a tragic backstory where Akira had to fight for bread and gruel with other children. This caused her to be cold-hearted and mercenary about everything, and she was probably annoyed at Hanae for trying to take her place.

If Akira had known his thoughts, she would have laughed out loud.

And Akira did not laugh out loud. Ever.

"Akira, apologise to your cousin." Kazuo took up the mantle of the responsible older brother.

Akira\'s eyes, which were resting on the mother and daughter pair hugging each other, turned to her eldest biological brother.

She had already judged him to be a little gullible just like her mother. She was not surprised that he believed Hanae once she started playing out her drama.

"No." She said directly.

She was not a fan of drama, but that did not mean that she would take responsibility for something that she did not do.

Kazuo was surprised by her direct refusal. Even if she did not respect him as a big brother yet, he expected that she would see herself as a guest. Therefore, she would choose to apologise to avoid making things awkward for everybody or alienating people.

If his assumptions were correct, shouldn\'t she be afraid of getting kicked out?

"Akira, your eldest brother is just trying to prevent uncomfortable relations and bad blood in the family. It is alright if it was an accident, but you should still apologise." Chiharu joined the conversation with a caring tone.

Akira lifted her midnight black eyebrows and a ghost of a smile appeared. It was just as she had assumed. The person who controlled this new eldest brother\'s family was his wife. She had noticed something strange in the way she said that Kazuo could not sit still in his office and had to come to meet her.

"Sister, I will apologise on behalf of Akira. It seems that the kids cannot get along." Sayaka said awkwardly.

Both Kaoru and Hanae felt their hearts beat a little faster with tension and fear after the statement. Sayaka had brought Hanae so that she could hang out with Akira. If they did not get along, it was clear that Hanae would be the one chased out of the mansion.

"It is not that much of a big deal. The children were probably playing around." Kaoru decided to get ahead of the situation.

"Didn\'t you want justice?" Seiji spoke in a cold voice.

"I just spoke in a moment of extreme worry. You cannot understand the feelings of a parent." Kaoru said quickly. "Now that I have realised Hana is ok, I am more clear-headed."

Seiji smiled coldly.
