In the typical dynamics of a brother's feelings towards his sister, it's usually indifference. Even those brothers who doted on their sisters hoped for a man to love and care for their sisters, ensuring their happiness. However, James seemed vehemently against Nina getting married.A brother opposing his sister's marriage? What was up with that? Why was he trying to interfere in her relationships and marriage? Sierra found it odd but could not figure it out.Maybe it was because Nina was hurt in her previous relationship with Chris, Sierra thought. Perhaps James was worried Nina would get hurt in love again or fall into depression.James truly cared for Nina, that much is clear.Sierra wanted to say something, as she thought Nina being doted on by her brother was not a bad thing. However, after some thought, she chose silence. It was evident Maria and James had different views on Nina's situation.Whom should she support? Supporting James would go against Maria's wishes and

With such an adorable sister-in-law, it was no wonder her brother was so fond of her.Chris looked at Luna.Luna said, "Pierre approached me, asking me to plead with my sister-in-law. He said that Shelly didn't mean it. She knows she was wrong and hopes you and Paige can give her another chance."Paige got angry again. “Hah! How dare Pierre and Shelly be so facetious!" ‘Indeed,’ Chris thought.Paige looked at Luna and said, "You didn't agree, did you? Let me tell you, you must not relent. Why did they send Pierre instead of Shelly? Those scumbags probably know you like Pierre and used him, a handsome guy, to execute their plan. Don't fall for it."Chris and Luna were at a loss for words.The handsome guy scheme… Fuck! She was too caught up in her anger earlier and did not think about it at all. Now, looking back, it was true. Pierre looking for her was a ploy using the handsome guy scheme!!!"I didn't fall for it," Luna said. "I refused. I told Pierre that Shelly not onl

The unsettling feeling of being watched by a wild beast finally dissipated, and Paige let out a sigh of relief.It was all thanks to Luna's words, which left her feeling shy and stealing glances at Chris.…Paige initially thought it would take a while before she heard about Shelly and Pierre's situation. On the third day, Luna hurriedly came to her room to spill the beans about Shelly and Pierre. Luna even made sure Chris was not home.Chris had some urgent matters to attend to, so he went out. Otherwise, Luna felt a bit awkward gossiping about Shelly and Pierre in front of her brother.“Paige,” Luna said excitedly, “It’s about Shelly and Pierre.”“What’s going on with them?" Paige asked curiously.Luna, brimming with excitement, exclaimed, "Pierre's parents don't approve of him being with Shelly. They want them to break up.""So soon?"Luna replied, "So soon? If it were my son with a woman like her, I'd want them to break up immediately.""No, I mean, the news spread so q

While she could not stand Pierre, it was not to that extent. Paige asked Chris, "Why did he jump?""His family opposed his relationship with Shelly. Jumping off was probably to prove his determination and feelings for Shelly," Chris explained.Paige wondered, "Isn't he intentionally jumping off to threaten his family?” After all, who would be so foolish as to want to die?Chris glanced at Paige without saying a word. To say or not to say—though the girl was a bit dim most of the time, she was not completely lacking in intelligence. Sometimes, her brain did function."What about his family?" Paige curiously asked. "Did they compromise because of his suicide attempt? Did they agree?"Chris replied, "Not yet.""Oh," Paige said. The Alfonsos seemed quite firm.While they were talking, someone knocked on the door."Come in," Chris said casually.The door opened.It was Luna.Seeing Chris, Luna obediently called out, "Hey, Chris."Chris nodded casually.Once Luna entered the

Alfred spoke, "By the way, after Pierre leaves the Alfonsos, I won't give him anything. We spent so much time, money, and effort raising him all these years, but he's willing to go to extremes for a woman. We don't want a son like that. Taking him back would be admitting our failure in raising him. From now on, you will have to fend for yourselves."Shelly was speechless at Alfred’s words.Why was he so heartless? Was Pierre not his favored son?Alfred continued, "Pierre, you used to be my son and part of the Alfonsos, enjoying all the resources it had to offer. However, you're no longer one of us now. I believe in you, though. Over the years, you've learned many things. Even if you leave the Alfonsos, with your abilities, you can find a decent job and support yourself."‘That’s right,’ Pierre thought.He believed in his own capabilities. He could provide a stable life for Shelly.With his dad's words, leaving the Alfonsos did not seem so bad.Alfred added, "I'll have a lawyer d
