The air was thick with tension.


    Wyatt''s expression was icy. "Do you wish I didn''t get better, Mr. Iverson?"N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive ? material.


    Christopher responded with a smile, "You''re imagining it, Wyatt. Why would I be so narrow-minded? You''re Be''s father, and Be is the love of my life. I sincerely hope you remain in the best of health and live long."


    Quentin looked Christopher dead in the eye with furrowed brows.


    Christopher sounded concerned, but nothing good ever came out of his mouth.


    "You''re stubborn, Mr. Iverson."


    Wyatt tensed up under his suit, but his words were biting. "But your stubbornness is bing an obsession. I told you that you can''t force romance. Be is a proud woman. You can pull all the stops, but she will never look your way if she''s not interested."


    The smile on Christopher''s face froze as humiliation washed over him.


    "Everybody knows that Be is dating Justin now, and they are talking about marriage. No one cane between them."


    Wyatt talked about Justin with affection.


    It sounded like Wyatt and Justin were close.


    The father-inw seemed to be getting along with the son-inw.


    Hit with resentment, Christopher was about to say something when Wyatt snapped. "You''re no longer the little boy who followed my daughter around. Be has Justin now. It''s inappropriate of you to call her the love of your life."


    Wyatt even gave Christopher a stern warning right outside Yara Park.


    This time, he crushed Christopher''sst hope.


    Christopher gritted his teeth and narrowed his eyes dangerously.


    A whileter, he smiled. "I don''t expect you to remember all the nice things have done, but you don''t need to be so cold and heartless to your lifesaver. Besides, I have always respected you."


    Lifesaver?


    Wyatt and Quentin were taken aback.

    Christopher smiled faintly. "Come to think of it, she wouldn''t tell you. She will only remember the good in Justin."


    Wyatt''s cheeks burned with shame and rage.


    The maniption frustrated Wyatt, and he broke out in a cold sweat.


    "If you did it, thank you."

    "I know that your illness is serious. You can suffer, numbness and paralysis in theter stages. Having been sessful all your life, you certainly don''t want to let the disease get the better of you. While you were battling your illness, your family was in distress. Be couldn''t stop crying, and I felt bad for her."


    Christopher sighed.


    Wyatt''s arms on the armchair trembled, and hisposed expression stiffened.


    Anxiety gnawed at Quentin.


    "How about a deal for the sake of you and your family?" Christopher nudged his sses up and smiled wickedly.


    Wyatt said in a chilling tone, "What do you want?”
