Oliver immediately distanced himself from Justin, throwing him a wary look. “You’re not seriously asking me to break them up, are you? That’s more Joey’s thing. Go ask him.”Though it was about his friend’s happiness, Oliver had no desire to get tangled up in a mess involving Lindsay.Nearby, Joey choked on his drink, spitting it out in surprise. He shot Oliver a glare. “What kind of crap are you talking about? Do I look like that kind of scheming guy?”Turning to Justin, he added, “Justin, I’m not doing anything shady like that.”Justin gave them both a look of disbelief. “What are you guys even talking about?”With a hint of annoyance, he said, “I just wanted Oliver to check where Lindsay and Elric went before the rumors started. And if there were other people with them, we could get a few photos out there to clear things up. If her team won’t step up, I’ll do it myself.”The idea of Lindsay being romantically involved with anyone, especially Elric, was something he couldn’t accept.

Joey and Justin both glanced down at the group messages. After reading Lindsay’s reply, they couldn’t help but exchange looks of sympathy with Oliver.Joey shook his head and said, "Oliver, Brandon’s a pro at messing with you, huh? Your first talisman got ruined because of Olivia, and now your second one’s been swiped by your own brother before you even got to use it."Oliver’s expression darkened. "That idiot’s been screwing me over for ages. Last time, he stole my prayer charm, and now he’s taken my talisman."Frustrated, he added, "Just today, someone slammed on their brakes in front of me, and I ended up rear-ending them. The guy was a nightmare to deal with. I had to pay up, and it wasted my entire afternoon."Then, everywhere I drove, I hit traffic. And when I finally got out of the car, someone bumped into me, and I fell flat on my face. I thought I was just having a bad day, but it turns out I’ve been taking the hit for my brother’s bad luck."Joey tried to suppress his laught

Oliver's words made Justin's expression change. He suddenly fell silent and downed a few more glasses of wine. Joey spoke up, "Back then, Justin took Lindsay's love for granted, thinking he could do whatever he wanted without consequence. He was convinced that no matter what, she’d always be that childhood friend who wouldn’t leave him. So, he kept pushing the boundaries."But who knew she had a temper too? When she said she didn't love him, she meant it. When she decided to walk away, she didn't look back. And Justin? He was left standing there, dumbfounded. By the time he realized his mistake, it was too late."With every word Joey said, Justin's face grew paler.Oliver nodded in agreement. "Exactly. I always thought of Lindsay as our little sister. No matter what happened, I believed blood ties couldn’t be broken. She was always so good to us, so thoughtful when it came to the family, and I just assumed she’d never hold a grudge. I mean, what family can’t get through hard times to

Lindsay wasn’t surprised at all when she saw Oliver in such a pitiful state and let him in without a word.Oliver looked at her and asked, "Does blocking someone’s bad luck make things worse for me? I don’t remember Brandon being this unlucky before."Lindsay nodded. "Yes, because you took on such a big hit for him, he gets to avoid bad luck for the next three days."Oliver was speechless. "I had to suffer this much just to cover him for three days? If this keeps happening, am I going to end up dead?"He was genuinely starting to wonder.Lindsay shook her head. "Not dead, but you’ll definitely be dealing with constant bad luck."Oliver had no desire to go through that again. A wave of both relief and dread washed over him—thankfully, he’d never let Olivia borrow his luck before. A few more incidents like this, and he might’ve completely lost it."Can you make me that protective charm now?" he asked, unable to wait any longer. He felt like he wouldn’t be able to relax until he had it.

Brandon had taken Raymond's talisman. Raymond tried to chase after Brandon but couldn’t catch up, so he had no choice but to call Oliver for advice. Oliver thought about it and decided not to let Raymond handle all the bad luck on his own. He suggested Raymond wait and see if anything unlucky happened, and if it did, he could reach out to Lindsay.Raymond was abroad, filming a variety show, and his fallout with Lindsay had only gotten worse. He couldn’t bring himself to reach out first, so he waited. Sure enough, the bad luck soon followed.While going to the supermarket, he was hit by an electric scooter and injured his foot. He ended up staying in the hospital for two days, but the streak of misfortune didn’t stop. For example, while getting an IV, even though he hadn’t moved his hand much, the needle somehow slipped out of his vein. Before long, his hand swelled up like a balloon.Then, while going out for a meal, he slipped on some grease on the floor, making his already inju
