Female Novel
Chapter 383
Joaquin thought that would be an issue. “I’m the boss.”
“Why are you the boss?” Juniper was disgruntled. “We were born on the same day. My mommy liedto me. I’m the only girl here, so I’m the boss.” Juniper looked at Joaquin smugly. “You’re calling meboss from now on. C’mon, Jojo, let me hear you say it.”
Joaquin was still looking quietly stern. “No, I’m the boss.”
“No, I am!” Juniper was panicking. “Ladies first!”
“And that’s why you’re not the boss. C’mon, let me hear you say it.”
That was the first time Juniper had heard Joaquin talking so much. “No, I’m the boss! I am! You’remy lackeys!”
“No, I’m the boss.”
“No, no, no!” Juniper yelled. “I’m the patient here! Just let me have this!”
“I’m letting you have this, but I’m still the boss.” No matter how much Juniper yelled and protested,Joaquin stayed calm and insisted that he was the boss, much to her chagrin.
And then Selena came back and heard the argument from a few meters away. “Mommy’s back!She’ll tell us who’s boss, won’t you, Mommy?” Juniper pouted.
Selena had never seen her daughter so angry before. “Um, well, the firstborn is usually the boss.”
“Who’s the firstborn, then?” Juniper followed up, crossing her arms indignantly, and she glared atJoaquin.
Selena was getting a headache. She was in a world of pain and blacked out during the delivery, soshe didn’t know who came first. She looked at her kids and noticed Joaquin’s serious stare. “Ofcourse it’s Jojo. Jojo came first, then Jamie, and then you came last,” she lied, but Selena trustedJoaquin. She knew he’d protect his sister.
Juniper puckered her lips silently. Joaquin didn’t gloat, though he knew his brother would if he wasin his place. Selena noticed the little smirk on his face though.
“You want some water?”
“No!” Juniper still looked discontent.
“What about orange juice, then? I’ll get one for you.”
“I want some cookies, too.” Juniper snorted and turned around to sulk.
“Sure.” Joaquin slid down and trotted away.
Selena hugged Juniper, who was still sulking. “Did you lie, Mommy? I was the firstborn, wasn’t I?”novelbin
“No, it was Joaquin. I swear it was. It’s great having two brothers, you know. They’ll give youeverything nice, won’t they?”
Juniper pouted, thinking that her mother had a point.
“Joaquin’s already buying you some juice and cookies, isn’t he? Isn’t that nice of him?”
“You have a point.”
Nice, Selena thought. Kids are so gullible. Joaquin came back from his purchase a short while later,holding the juice and cookies Juniper wanted.
