After hearing his father's words, Mason's eyes darted around mischievously.
"Dad, I want a new game console, but Auntie won't buy it for me."
He knew that as long as his father spoke, I had no choice but to listen.
"Impossible, you're about to take the SAT, and you're the hero of our family. You can have whatever you want."
Mason listened and turned to look at me with hopeful eyes.
But Scott was frantically signaling to me, and Emma was subtly squeezing my hand.
It was the same in my previous life. I became the villain under their hints.
I told Mason that he should prioritize studying for the exams since he was about to take them and that he shouldn't spend all his time playing games.
At the time, I didn't notice the resentful expression on his face.
Seeing that I didn't react, Mason's expression began to darken, but Scott and Emma secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mason. I will definitely get you what you want, and I'll bring it to you in a few days, okay?"
Mason smiled and skipped off to the living room to eat snacks.
After Mason left, Scott and Emma immediately changed their expressions.
