Chapter 130 130 - Karen...

When I'd finished talking to my aunt and uncle, we went to the back of the house where the rest of the family was gathered.

As soon as I appeared with them, I noticed the confused and curious expressions of the other people, but there was one person who didn't have that on his face.

The moment I appeared, I heard a sweet, excited voice.

"Noah!" My grandmother shouted my name as she slowly approached me with a big smile on her face.

When I heard her call me Noah, I smiled too as I realized that some people had started to recognize me, but the confusion of my changed appearance was glaring on their faces.

At that moment, the people in the background were just my grandmother, my grandfather, my Uncle Ben who was tending the barbecue, and Ethan who was running with Sophie and James.

My uncles' wives were inside the house, as far as I could see through the kitchen window.

"You've changed so much, my boy..." My grandmother said excitedly as she walked around me looking at how different I was.

"You're the only one who recognized me, Grandma." I said, looking at her fondly.

From Noah's old memories, his grandmother had always treated him very well, even when he was isolating himself, she would still sit and talk to him, asking how he was doing, if anything was wrong, often even giving him money to buy the anime action figures she knew he liked.

So the affection that his memories had for her was partly inherited by me, who, despite not having gone through those things, could still feel the old lady's kindness.

"Of course I would recognize you..." She smiled as she looked at me with sparkling eyes. "But you're so handsome... when are you going to bring a girlfriend for me to meet?"

Hearing this, I rolled my eyes as I laughed.

After talking to her, I went to my grandfather and said hello to him as well, even though he was a more reserved man due to the different upbringing, my grandfather was still a good man.

I could feel his pride when he looked at me, especially at my arms, which may have pleased him to see that I was getting strong.

My Uncle Ben was also a very nice man, the quietest man in the family, the middle brother between my father and my Uncle John.

The only people younger than my Uncle Ben were my Aunt Kate, my Uncle Carlos' wife, and Karen, the youngest in the family.

While I was talking to them, David came out of the house, accompanied by Jerry, who was wearing his big headphones and playing his portable video game, ignoring everyone.

I just nodded at David without saying anything.

He was embarrassed by this, especially since he knew what Karen was saying inside the house to Kate and my Uncle Ben's and Uncle John's wives, and he just nodded at me too.

My uncles saw this, but didn't feel anything strange.

Even though he seemed like a cool guy, because of Karen, David hardly interacted with the others, usually just staying more isolated with his cell phone and listening to other people's conversations.

The old Noah was like that too, so I can't judge him.

After talking to my aunt and uncle for a while, I saw that they were really happy to talk to me, which was a great feeling.

But since I hadn't said hello to my aunts, I went to the kitchen to talk to them and entered the house with a smile.

The problem was that as soon as I entered the house, I heard Karen's annoying voice, while my other aunts were uncomfortable and didn't know how to interrupt her.

It wasn't an unusual scene, but when I heard what she was saying, my eyes rolled back.

"You don't know this, but they treated me like dirt when I went to their house to ask for the money back, even though I was the one who helped them when they needed it most! It's like I'm the one who owes them money, not the other way around! So you better be careful with the money you lend them, because they're snakes..." Karen said proudly, not noticing the embarrassed and apologetic expressions on my other aunts' faces.

But I ignored them as I walked into the kitchen and smiled politely at my aunts.

"Hey Aunt Kate, Aunt May, Aunt Amelia." I greeted my aunt and both of my uncles' wives, completely ignoring Karen.

When the three of them actually confirmed that I was Noah, I could see the shock in their expressions before it quickly turned to excitement at how handsome I looked.

Their reaction was very similar to my grandmother's; since they were women, the way they appreciated my appearance was different from men's, so they looked at me a lot.

But I just smiled politely and spoke to them normally, ignoring Karen.

"I saw that you came with Ethan on a motorcycle, did you talk to John about it?" Aunt Amelia asked curiously.

"Yes, I told him that I bought the bike and that I want to buy a car too, he told me to take it to his garage so we can see if it's okay, I agreed to go there this week." I replied with a smile.

"Good, I'll convince him to give you a good discount." She said laughing.

Seeing how my aunts were acting, Karen got angry, because apparently no one took seriously the things she was saying to burnish my image and that of my family.

"Just don't let him pay for the trip to the store afterwards, because they might treat you badly when you go to collect the money." Karen said dismissively, bringing the mood down again.

I looked at her mockingly and replied: "Funny you should say that, Karen, because as far as I remember, you were the one who broke into my parents' house screaming that you were going to use the $10,000 my father owed you to buy his share of the inheritance from my grandparents who are still alive?

As soon as I said that, Karen's face froze because she could not believe I would have the nerve to say that in front of the other people in the family.

And my aunts were also shocked to hear that Karen was already trying to buy out the others' share of the inheritance before her parents had even died!

"Where did you get such an absurd idea, Noah?! I just went to borrow the money for the exchange I want to send Jerry on, it has nothing to do with the inheritance." She denied it.

Unfortunately, I had no proof of anything since she took the contract away and I didn't record anything, but I just scoffed.

"Ahan Karen, I'm the liar and no one in the family could have imagined that you, a money-grubbing old woman, would have the nerve to do this." I said without paying much attention and went back to talking to my other aunts.

Hearing what I said, Karen became furious and tried to think of an answer to say, but she herself knew that everyone knew how obsessed she was with money and that even without proof, it was obvious that my aunts believed me completely.

Seeing my aunts ignore her, Karen angrily left the kitchen and went to sit with David and Jerry in the backyard.

As soon as she left the kitchen, the atmosphere between my aunts and me became much better, and they took advantage of this to ask me various questions about how I lost weight, what my secret was, how I gained so much muscle, and they asked me various tips on how to lose weight as well.

Of course, I couldn't say that I used a system to do it because they wouldn't even understand if I told them the truth, but since I had studied a lot about gym training, biology, and cooking for weight loss, I really had a lot of useful tips that could help them lose weight as well.

And with my [Teach Lv 30] skill, everything I explained was very simple for them, even the complex explanations of how each type of food helps digest fat and how weight training exercises play a fundamental role in breaking down fat in the body and turning it into fuel for muscle development, they were able to understand everything without too much difficulty.

"Woah, not only are you looking better, but you're smarter too, Noah?" My Aunt Karen asked excitedly, looking at me even more astonished.

Laughing, I chatted with them while taking advantage of the fact that they were cooking some food for us to eat with the barbecue, and I used this to learn a bit of cooking from them as well.

[Cooking Lv 24-> 25]

Seeing that I also had a high level of cooking knowledge, our conversation became even more fun, until after a few minutes, my parents arrived and the family was completely reunited.

Another big surprise for the family was that Liv had also changed a lot.

From a girl who used to fight with my mother all the time and sulk in a corner, she had become a much more communicative girl who interacted much better with the rest of the family.

This caused all of my uncles to pepper my parents with questions to find out what they had done to make us change so much.

My parents didn't have an answer and just blamed it on me, even telling the family that I was now a singer and that I was about to become a D-rank artist!

My aunt and uncle were shocked to hear that I was an artist, but when they thought about it and remembered my new bike, my good looks, and that we were going to pay off my parents' debt today, it all started to fit together in their minds like a puzzle.

It really made sense for us to have more money since I had become an artist, and with more money it wasn't strange for us to pay off the debt and for me to buy a motorcycle.

Not to mention it made sense for me to become an artist now that I looked better after losing weight.

They were just shocked at the order of things since I lost weight after becoming an artist.

When my grandmother heard this, her eyes lit up and she wanted me to sing a song for her.

Unfortunately, I didn't bring an instrument today and didn't really know how to sing for her.

Until my grandmother told me that there was a big old piano in the basement that I could play if it still worked.

So with a piano, I came up with a song that I would hardly be able to play at my concerts, but that would be a great song to play for the family right now.
