Chapter 183 Caius could feel the hostility radiating from the four brothers' glares. But instead of being intimidated, he found it exhilarating. As a man, as a brother, being envied felt extremely exhilarating.

Why hadn't he felt this way in the twenty-odd years he'd been Hannah's brother? Maybe it was all about sisters.

Caius shot them a defiant look and then, asked Miranda purposely, "Sis, who are these guys? They seem like they know you pretty well."

Hannah was taken aback. Was this really her brother, acting all phoney? But she quickly caught on and played along.
