Reversal

Chapter 295 Hannah's Family

Looking at the modest house in front of him, Alan bit his lips and squeezed the hand holding his.

"Easy sweetie, you know my parents" Turning her head towards Alan, Hannah smiled reassuringly and knocked on the door of the house.

*Knock* *Knock* *Knock* *Knock*

"I know, but this time it won't just be your parents" Biting his lips nervously, Alan continued "This time it'll be your whole family, cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents, it's not a simple thing!"

"Relax, they're nice and I'm sure they'll love you" Smiling brightly, Hannah turned her gaze towards the door and looked at the smiling man, then stepped forward and hugged him "Hi dad!"

"We've been waiting for you stinky girl" Snorting as he wipes his hands on his clothes, the man turns his gaze to Alan and smiles kindly "Little Alan, welcome."

"*Sigh*" Shaking her head as she separates from her father, Hannah purses her lips and mutters "In this house I am the least loved...am I even his daughter?"

"Thanks" Smiling with amusement at the sight of Hannah's depressed face, Alan sighs with relief as he feels his tension leave and enters the house with Hannah, instantly finding several people staring at him.

Smiling, Hannah grabs Alan's shoulders and stops him in front of her, then points to an elderly couple and speaks "These are my paternal grandparents, Grandpa Noah and Grandma Avery."

Pointing to 4 young men in the distance, Hannah continued "These are my cousins, Harry, Joshua, Aubrey and Layla."

Pointing toward the couch where two couples are sitting, Hannah continued "These are my uncles, Aunt Zoey with her husband Adam. Uncle Luke with his wife Camilla. Aunt Zoey and Uncle Luke are my father's brothers."

[A/N: I didn't go into describing each of the family members as they are of no importance and would only serve as filler, something unpalatable to readers]

Turning his gaze to Hannah, Alan whispered "I thought your mother's family would be there too."

Waving his hand dismissively, Hannah whispered "The two families don't get along very well, so we always get together separately."

"Oh" Nodding with understanding, Alan turned his gaze back to the family and bowed slightly "It's nice to meet you all, I'm Alan Grey, Hannah's boyfriend"

Raising her eyebrows, Zoey turned to her brother and whispered "You can tell he's a rich kid, even his greetings are so classy."

"Don't be rude" Looking at his sister reproachfully, Luke smiled kindly and looked up at Alan "It's nice to meet you, my sister has talked about you a lot."

Rising with a cane in his hands, Grandpa Noah stood up and walked slowly over to Alan, while the whole family looked on in silence.

Stopping in front of Alan, Noah looked at him with a gentle smile and caressed his face, then nodded with satisfaction and spoke in his aging voice "You're such a cute little boy, are you sure this Hannah brat didn't bully you into coming?"

"Grandpa!"

Smiling slightly, Father Hannah clapped his hands to attract attention and spoke "Come to the table, we'll start eating."

"Come on" Taking Alan's hand, Hannah smiled brightly and led him to the table, then grabbed a chair and moved it "Sit here."

"Mn"

Sitting down beside Alan, Hannah looked at the various salads and side dishes on the table and began to put food down on Alan's plate.

'How awkward' Smiling stiffly as he felt the heavy silence and the gaze fixed on him, Alan thought.

Sitting down next to Hannah, the father looked at his daughter serving food to Alan and smiled softly "Your mother can't make it, she's locked in her office for last minute work."

Rolling her eyes with disinterest, Hannah replied "As usual".

"Alan, how have your modeling classes been going?" Taking a piece of meat in his mouth, Hannah's father asked with interest.

"Fine, but I'll have to delay a bit as I'm changing academies to go to Boston with Hannah."

"Won't that give you any trouble? I know Hannah has to go to college, but if it slows you down it wouldn't be good."

Thanks to Christian's help, Hannah managed to get into Harvard without too much trouble, and Alan as a love child, didn't think twice about freezing his training and moving in with her.

The move is not difficult at all, Eva got them a nice apartment for them to live comfortably and even left them cars for their transfers.

"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry" Smiling nonchalantly while trying to ignore the uncomfortable atmosphere at the table, Alan continued "Besides, I've already found a good academy near the apartment."

"Have you found a place to live in Boston yet?" Raising her eyebrows with interest, Hannah's cousin Layla continued, "I heard it was pretty hard to find housing around there. I have a friend who got into Boston University and she's been struggling to find a good place."

"Alan's mom found us a place" Smiling stiffly, Hannah replied.

"Speaking of Alan's mother..." Looking at her cousin curiously, Aubrey asked "Does she know about your relationship?"

"That's right" Nodding quickly, Luke continued "She allowed their relationship? I understand that rich people are pretty strict about their relationships..."

"Stop bothering the child."

"..."

"..."

"..."

At the family grandmother's words, the entire table fell silent.

Raising his eyebrows in surprise, Alan tilted his head slightly and looked at the woman.

Leaning close to Alan's ear, Hannah whispered, "She used to be in the military, she doesn't talk much but her heart is warm so don't worry."please visit

Avery, Hannah's grandmother.

Avery is in her 70s, her hair gray with age and her body as thin as a twig. But despite her physical condition, no one takes away her strict face and deep-set eyes, easily demonstrating how long this woman has lived.

Turning her gaze to Alan, Avery asked "I heard your brother was in the army?"

"Y-yes" nodding nervously, Alan continued "I-I think he was almost a year."

"The young people who go to the veterans' center told me a lot about him." Nodding with a serious face as he eats quietly, Avery continued "Does your family know about your relationship with this brat?"

"Y-yes ma'am."

"Do they approve?"

"Yes they do Grandma" Taking Alan's hand as he looks nervous, Hannah smiles reassuringly at him and continues "They gave us the go ahead a few months ago."

"So your mother-in-law accepted you?"

"N-not quite" Smiling stiffly, Hannah replied.

Frowning slightly, Avery asked "Yes or no?"

"Alan's family is something...special" Not knowing how to speak properly, Hannah replied.

"In my family the one who has the final decision is my brother" Looking at the old woman, Alan continued "Mother has always been overprotective and doesn't quite accept Hannah, but as long as my brother accepts her, everything will be fine"

"Little Alan, you never talked about your brother. What's he like?" looking at Alan with interest, Hannah's father asked.

"He..." Thinking for a few seconds, Alan sighed, "It's hard to explain."

"You don't know what your brother looks like?"

"You wouldn't understand, Dad" Smiling bitterly, Hannah interrupted "It's hard to describe him in words alone."

"How hard would it be to describe just one person?" looking at her cousin quizzically, Aubrey murmured.

Looking at each other for a few seconds, Alan finally sighed and nodded, causing Hannah to speak "Alan's brother loves his family very much, but it's really hard to explain exactly what he's like..."

"When I have to be in front of him, I can't keep my composure... his eyes are strange and he always has an atmosphere that forces me to be aware of him even if I don't want to... but despite that, he is always smiling and calm.... It's strange and intimidating at the same time" Looking down at her plate of food with a slight frown, Hannah continued "But without a doubt the most uncomfortable thing is his eyes... I wouldn't know how to explain them properly... I don't know if they look at me even when I'm facing them... when he smiles I don't know if his eyes go with that smile..."

Raising her eyebrows as her granddaughter rambled on, Avery smiled at the corner of her lips and interrupted, "Okay, I see what you mean."

"You do?" looking at her mother with surprise, Hannah's father asked.

"I've felt the same when I was in the military, 3 to be exact" Raising his eyes to the ceiling, Avery continued "The first was my general, the second was the president and the third was a woman who made the president show respect...just those people have a different aura than us, it's impossible for us to manage to understand or explain what one feels in front of them"

"..." Nodding silently, Hannah sighed, knowing full well that dinner with her family sucked.

The rest of dinner went on relatively normally, aside from chatting from time to time, most of it was silence.

Once they finished eating, Hannah took Alan and led him to her room, then closed the door and lay down on the bed.

"*Sigh* I'm sorry" Smiling bitterly, Hannah continued "This was a fiasco."

Snuggling closer to Hannah, Alan smiled slightly and shook his head "It's okay, I'm used to this. Besides, it could have been worse."

Could it have been worse?

Yes.

Alan has had to live most of his life in this type of environment.

Who in the world doesn't know the only 4 members of the Grey family?

Although Alan is not as famous as the rest of his family, not knowing him is the same as not knowing Kim Kardashian from Christian's old world.

Perhaps countries with less western culture would not know him, but they would still hear of the Grey name at least once in their lives.

Alan has long since gotten used to not being treated like an ordinary person, even people with money become flattering as long as you outdo them.

In some ways Hannah is quite a rare and unique woman. Even though she has already found out Alan's true identity, her attitude hasn't changed a bit and she still treats him as she always has, something that Alan loves.

But unfortunately not all people are like Hannah, but ordinary people. Generally it wouldn't be uncommon for ordinary people who have the slightest contact with him to do anything to kiss his ass and try to get something from him.

Sometimes people come along who are so ridiculous that they ask for money for 'successful' investments.

"Not being talked to is better than being talked to with ulterior motives..." Burying his head in Hannah's chest, Alan murmured inaudibly.
