The meal was unexpectedly calm and smooth.


    Be and Wyatt seemed to have a tacit understanding, and neither brought up anything that might


    upset the other.


    "Damn! How could you guys eat without me?!"


    Ralph got impatient while strolling around. He was also hungry at this point. He immediately plopped


    down at the dining table and said, "Be, why didn''t you call me when you prepared such a feast? I


    don''t eat as much as Axel does. Are you afraid that I''d finish your food?!"


    Wyatt and Be looked at Ralph, saying simultaneously, "Shit, I forgot about you."


    After dinner, Wyatt prepared to leave.


    Be stood on the steps and watched Wyatt and Quentin leave, but Justin did not dare to neglect Wyatt


    and sent him to the car.


    Before entering the car, Wyatt''s tall figure suddenly paused, and he looked at Justin solemnly. "Don''t


    get cocky. I only stayed for dinner tonight because I miss my daughter and want to spend more time


    with her. I''ve never acknowledged you, nor have I forgiven you."


    Justin was humble, and his voice was hoarse with a tinge of bitterness. "I know I''m not good enough,


    so I never dreamed of getting your forgiveness. I only hope you can give me a chance to be good to


    Be. I''m willing to give my life for her, and I''ll spare no efforts to make her happy."

    Wyatt''s pupils slightly contracted, and he raised his brows mockingly. "Justin, how you behave in front


    of Be is your business. But in front of me, you don''t need to act like a lover boy. Besides my family, I


    am ruthless toward anyone else. Even if you really give your life to my daughter, I''ll still resent you and


    disapprove of you two being together. In the end, all your efforts will be futile, and you''ll regret it." "I''ve


    only regretted one thing in my life."


    The corner of Justin''s eyes was slightly red, and his trembling lips parted. "I regretted not realizing my


    true feelings in the beginning and failing to cherish Be back then. Even if I can''t end up with Be, I


    will always protect her until I take myst breath."


    Wyatt stared at him intently and said nothing before getting into the car.


    After the Thompson family''s luxurious car drove away, Justin turned around and walked back to Be.


    "What did Wyatt say to you?" Be hugged his arm, embracing it.


    "Chairman Thompson wants you to go to bed earlier and eat on time. Your body is not as strong as you


    think, so don''t overwork yourself."


    Justin lowered his head and kissed her cheek affectionately. "Also, stop eating ice cream while you''re


    on your period."


    "I don''t know whether Wyatt said the first two sentences, but you must''ve added thest point yourself."


    Be squinted at him, seeing through Justin''s little tricks.


    "I can''t fool you."


    Justin curled his lips helplessly. "Just listen to me once, okay?"


    "Fine... What did he really say to you? It can''t be anything good!" Be persisted.


    Justin''sshes fluttered, and he smiled casually. "No matter what he said, aren''t you still by my side?


    I''m already satisfied that Chairman Thompson did not bring you away."


    On the way back, Quentin did not dare speak to Wyatt.


    The air in the car felt a little suffocating, but he felt that the cause was not Justin.


    After God knows how long, Wyatt suddenly blurted out, "Actually, that brat''s cooking is edible."


    Quentin''s eyes widened, but he still smiled calmly. "It''s because Ms. Be''s instructions were on point."


    "He''s really patient. If it were me, I couldn''t have endured a woman nagging in my ear. It''s like having a


    thousand mosquitoes flying around. How annoying." Wyatt clicked his tongue. "Madam was also


    someone who loved to talk, smile, and nag you. I don''t see you being impatient at all..."


    Quentin identally mentioned Wyatt''s first wife, Be''s mother. His heart tightened, and his words


    came to a halt. Afraid of reminding Wyatt of his painful memories, he did not dare to continue. Wyatt''s


    eagle-like eyes were covered with a thickyer of sadness. A lump formed in his throat, and his


    trembling hands, resting on his knees, clenched into fists.


    After a long silence, Wyatt murmured hoarsely, "Quentin... I miss Yara."


    Quentin opened his mouth, but did not know how tofort him.
