Bennett’s heart ached, his eyes rimmed in red as he tried to take Evadne from Thaddeus‘ embrace.

Among the four sons born to Evadne’s mother, Cassius seemed to be the gentlest, but that wasn’t the case.

Due to his special status, Bennett always presented himself as cold, stern, and serious. But among all of Emeric’s children, he was the most gentle and sensitive.

Even this year, when he couldn’t return home from his milltary duties to celebrate Evadne’s birthday, he had secretly cried under the covers in the middle of the night.

He was a man with a soft and sensitive heart.

“Let me hold her.” Thaddeus stared down at Evadne, refusing with a cold demeanor.

“You don’t deserve to!”

Remembering his divorced sister, Bennett yelled at him with tears in his eyes, “Do you not remember how you abandoned her and how you hurt her? Stop pretending to be the good guy! Even if you saved Evadne, I would never be grateful to you!!

“I never asked for your gratitude.”

Thaddeus paused, speaking in a low, husky voice. “Evadne is an important woman to me. I admit I’ve hurt her in the past. Everything I’m doing now is just trying to make up for her.” You can’t make up for it!”

Bennett interrupted him sharply. “You should have thought about this before! My sister is no longer lively and carefree because of you. Even your life wouldn’t be enough!” Thaddeus stood stiffly, as if struck by lightning.
