The Thompsons were taken aback as Christopher exited Wyatt’s vehicle.


    Be furrowed her brows.


    Wyatt was a conceited and proud man.


    No one around the age of his children, except his own kids, earned a spot on Wyatt’s ride. Even Justin,


    a well-known and influential figure in Savrow, was deemed unworthy of sitting alongside Wyatt,


    ording to Wyatt himself.


    Yet now, Christopher was able to get close to Wyatt. The Thompsons would be lying to say they were


    not shocked.


    If Be remembered correctly, Wyatt was indifferent to Christopher before. His attitude took a huge turn


    in just a few days.


    “You look a lot better, Be. That’s good news.”


    Christopher smiled tenderly and approached Be with a vibrant bouquet of pink flowers. He presented


    the flower to her.” Congrattions on your discharge from the hospital, Be.”


    Be stared at the blooming Damascus roses, hershes fluttering.


    “Thank you, Chris.” She took the bouquet.


    “They are your favorites. I went to the flower field this morning and picked them myself.” Christopher’s


    eyes glistened earnestly.


    The Thompsons exchanged nces as the air filled with


    awkwardness.


    “Thank you, but you don’t have to,” Be replied while holding the roses, her eyes unreadable.


    “I’ll do anything for you.” Christopher looked deep into her eyes, barely hiding his affection for her.


    Lost for words, Be pressed her lips together.


    Christopher’s words were more passionate than the vibrant roses she


    held.


    Justin observed the interaction between Be and Christopher, his dry throat scratchy and burning.


    Soon, he felt suffocated.


    Wyatt stepped out of the Rolls Royce and drew close to Christopher. They stood alongside each other,


    like father and son.


    Christopher gave Wyatt a warm smile, blending in perfectly wit


    family.


    Wyatt patted his shoulder with a grin and said something. It was apparent that they had gotten closer


    With bloodshot eyes, Justin punched the tree bark.


    He could not ept Wyatt weing Christopher with open arms.


    However, Justin could not do anything about it. The Thompsons


    would not take his unwarranted advice, and he could not risk


    upsetting Be again.


    He could not hurt her anymore. That was thest thing he wanted to


    do to her.


    “Pft! I thought you were better than that, Mr. Salvador. All you can do is heave with fury.”


    The harsh critique came from the back.


    Justin looked back and met Drew’s taunting gaze.


    “Aren’t you always assertive and confident, Mr. Salvador? You look weak and spineless to me.” Since


    Drew despised Justin anyway, he did not hold back on the sarcasm.


    Drew was rather protective of his family, and it did not matter whether his family was in the right or


    wrong.

    It was a heinous crime to hurt his beloved sister. Drew believed that nothing less than death was a


    fitting punishment for such a


    despicable act.


    “I know that I shouldn’t be in Be’s life anymore, but can’t I just watch her from afar?” Justin rasped


    out with bloodshot eyes.


    He had spent thest few days awake until morning light.


    His heart had bled dry.


    Standing beside Justin, Drew narrowed his eyes on Be. “To be


    honest, Justin, I really hate you.”


    Justin pursed his lips, his eyes downcast.


    “But I am not keen on that guy either. My poor sister. Why can’t she


    meet better men? There’s another thing for me and my brothers to


    worry about.’


    Drew stared at Christopher peevishly and clicked his tongue. “Wyatt isn’t any better. I just praised him


    for having some good sense, but he quickly proved me wrong. If he gives Christopher Be’s hand in


    marriage, I’m going to make my objection loud and clear at the


    wedding.”


    Justin was speechless.
