Mario grinned as he responded to Josh's question, saying, "I just wanted to remind you that you're still not welcome here." And that was the reason he had knocked on Josh's car door, just to remind him that he didn't belong in the family. Something that Josh had heard from him before, and he didn't need reminding, because he already felt like he didn't belong in this family already.Another reason Mario approached Josh was because he wanted to entertain his female companion by making fun of Josh. He intended to show her that Josh was a loser who didn't belong to the family.Mario's intense dislike for Josh fueled a strong desire to turn others against him.

“So, what brings you here, Josh, you don't look like a trouble maker.” Amelia asked trying to keep the conversation between her and Josh going. "if you don't mind, I'd like to concentrate on my assignment," Josh replied respectfully. He couldn't understand why she was so interested in talking to him. She seemed to come from a wealthy background, which made him feel uneasy because he wasn't accustomed to people like her taking an interest in him. Typically, individuals from affluent backgrounds would mock him, so he found it unusual and wasn't inclined to engage in conversation.Amelia nodded understandingly, noting Josh's polite yet distant response. His guarded demeanor was evident, and she didn't understand why, but she respected his wish for solitude to focus on the assignment.Glancing at Josh briefly, she turned her attention to the desk.

It's Josh everyone!” He exclaimed mockingly, a disdainful expression plastered on his face.Instinctively Josh rose to his feet, meeting Brian's gaze as he replied, “I don'
