All Chapters of Better Brother, Better Life: Chapter 121 - Chapter 130

Phoebe was the one who'd asked Katherine to be there, so she wasn't surprised at all. She also didn't react when she heard Katherine call Malcolm "Mal" with such concern.Flynn, on the other hand, fixed his sharp, critical gaze on Phoebe after the security guards restrained him. He thought that Phoebe would cling to Katherine as she had before and stare at her with pleading eyes. To his surprise, Phoebe was calm.He didn't know what was wrong with her.Flynn furrowed his brows tightly. If she softened even a little, he'd plow right through her. That was what she deserved for meddling!When Malcolm saw Katherine, his expression went from furious to aggrieved in a matter of seconds. "Katherine, you're finally here! Flynn came to take his anger out on me, and Phoebe called me a moron. Can you please rein them in? They're totally bullying me!"Flynn snorted. "Figures. You were born for begging and scrounging."Malcolm trembled with fury. "Do you see this, Katherine?"Katherine was f

Phoebe frowned when she saw Evan. He and Connor were as thick as thieves, and Connor loved Vanessa. Malcolm was Vanessa's brother, so naturally, Evan would take Malcolm's side!Blake also blanched when he saw Evan. He quickly told Flynn who Evan was, prepping him mentally.Flynn merely let out a dismissive snort. He took ownership of what he did and wasn't scared at all. As for Connor… what the hell had happened between him and Phoebe?He couldn't figure it out, so he glared at Phoebe viciously, his hands balling into fists by his sides. His mind kept circling one thought—would the fallout be serious if he punched Connor? Of course it would.That only made him clench his fists tighter. He had to become stronger quickly. Only then would he have the confidence to slap Phoebe and wake her up.Malcolm instantly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Evan. He tattled on the spot, explaining that he was just drinking quietly when Flynn provoked him, leaving him with no choice but to figh

Gideon frowned as soon as he heard Connor's name. Clearly, his mood had been ruined. He said, "His business has nothing to do with me. If you want to do anything to him, do it yourself."Simon said, "Phoebe has been working at Spectrum Group with no issue all this time, yet Connor starts forcing her to resign the moment you get back. He's also your half-brother. It's way easier for you to handle this than me…""Go ahead if you want to roleplay as Phoebe's dad. Don't come to me." Gideon pointed at the door. "Otherwise, get out."Simon narrowed his eyes. Gideon was so icy and indifferent that it was almost as if he didn't have a shred of compassion in him. Still…"Drop the act. It seems that you now have a split personality. You tell one story in public and another behind the scenes. Why else did you send Phoebe home yesterday?"Gideon thought about the hickey on Phoebe's neck. His expression didn't change, but his eyes went cold. He studied Simon for a moment. "Do I need to report

Connor held a glass of wine. When he saw Phoebe, his expression remained utterly indifferent.Phoebe knew that he didn't care about her. When they were together, she was always the one who compromised. She used to love him, so she willingly obeyed. But that was the extent of what she truly knew about him.So, she never imagined that he would lay a hand on Flynn. That had crossed her bottom line.Everyone had something they wanted to protect. Flynn was her closest family member now, and she didn't want him to get hurt. Yet, that was exactly what Connor had done.Phoebe wanted nothing more than to tear him apart and rip off his mask of cold indifference. She wanted to smash his icy arrogance to pieces!Still, she quickly looked away and walked past the room without uttering a single word. She didn't even look at Evan. He was Connor's friend, so they were destined to walk different paths. Why bother having anything to do with each other?Phoebe and Natalie continued walking for a bi

Gideon instantly understood what Phoebe was trying to do when she asked that question. It also explained the predatory look she'd given him on the tennis court the previous day.So, this was her goal.He didn't rush to answer.Embarrassment, unease, anxiety, and fear gradually showed on her face, perhaps because she was about to bluntly admit that she wanted to use him. She was terrified.However, to Gideon, this was a novel experience. It was rare to see such a range of emotions in Phoebe's usually aloof face. Naturally, there was also a sharp, unmistakable shrewdness in her eyes.He guessed that she had to be in a tense and conflicted mood at that moment, so he deliberately kept quiet.Phoebe couldn't stand it anymore. She clamped her hands on her knees and rubbed them back and forth. Her coworkers outside could return at any moment, so she was anxious to get this over with. She had no choice but to repeat her question. "Mr. Blackwood, do you hate Connor?""Are you trying to i
