Asher asked, "Be, do you hate me for deceiving you?"


    Be widened her beautiful eyes. Hate?! Such a heavy word. She had never thought about it, much less expected her brother to ask her this one day.


    "Ash, did something happen? Why are you asking me this all of a sudden?" Be grasped his strong arms with both hands and gently squeezed them. "Ash, just tell me what is going on. Don''t scare me like this, please."


    Asher looked down in silence, his expression darkening.


    "Ash, no matter what you have done, you will always be my big brother! I won''t hate you!" Perhaps too many things had happened, and now hearing Asher''s somber words, Be''s emotions momentarily unraveled. Her voice choked with sobs. "No matter what happens, you will always be the best in my heart! You''re irreceable!"


    "You little fool... You..." Asher gave her a bitter smile. Hisrge hand gently ruffled her soft hair.


    Justin silently watched from the side. In the past, he might have been bubbling with jealousy. But at this moment, his attention was entirely on Asher. He sensed that Asher had something heavy on his mind. This brother-inw had always been very mysterious in his eyes. Since their perilous adventure on South Ind, Justin has be more convinced that Asher has an unknown yet thrilling past. Suddenly, chaotic footsteps approached.


    "Be! Ash!"


    The three of them turned around simultaneously, stunned!


    "Aunt M?! Why... Why are all of you here?!"Owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    Wyatt''s three wives, along with Axel, Ralph, Amelia, and even Den, who was far away in Dawnford, had all taken leave and rushed over. Almost the entire Thompson family was here.


    Be and Asher immediately stood up, exchanging bewildered nces. But the news was not something they had disclosed to the family.


    Seeing the Thompson family had


    arrived, with Den among them, Justin pursed his thin lips, sensibly retreating two steps to hide his


    presence. Fortunately, Ryan way ne

    "Be, how did Dad''s illness worsen to this point?!" Axel, anxious and breathless, asked, "How could he lose control in public?!"


    Be was suddenly stunned. "Ax, how... How did you find out?!"


    Justin''s heart tightened, his dark eyes shing coldly. Instinctively, Cameron''s name appeared in his mind.


    "Huh, I could not imagine that, as Wyatt Thompson''s son, I actually found out about such an earth-shattering event from the inte!"


    Be was utterly shocked. "What? The inte?!"


    "Ash, I know you don''t want us to worry, but you should consider the overall situation!" Axel loved his little sister dearly and could not bear to be angry at Be, so he vented his frustration on Asher.


    "You kept it from us, not letting us know Dad''s condition immediately. Is that reasonable? Do you genuinely not want us to worry, or do you not trust us to help shoulder the burden for the family?!" sw?novel


    Asher''s brows furrowed tightly, the bitterness in his heart growing stronger.


    "Ax, you should not speak to Ash like that. That''s too much!" Den, knowing Axel''s impatience, hurriedly stepped forward to pull his arm back.


    "Yes, Ax, how can you doubt Ash?"
