Chapter 1991

He had barely finished his sentence when Flint swiftly drew away his hands from Caprice's shoulder.

He held his hands inches away from his face to admire them while expressing sourly, "What do you mean stinky hands? These hands are beautiful."

Liam ignored him.

Flint held his hands in front of Caprice. 'Take a look, Caprice. Do these hands look beautiful to you or what?”

Smack!

Liam smacked his hand away without mercy.

Flint groaned from the pain.

Caprice broke out into a chuckle, amused by the shrill cry of Flint.

Isabel showed up as well and joked. "Flint, you better watch out. Caprice is going to be our sister-in-law soon enough. If you step on her toes, I don't think I can save you from Liam breaking your legs."

Flint scoffed. "I have long legs, he won't get me."

Upon saying that, he playfully grabbed Liam's shoulder before scuttling away toward Sylvia and Odell to seek their protection.

Liam looked on silently.

He wore a look of disdain as if the mere idea of continuing this interaction offended him.

Flint had always liked to get on Liam's nerves ever since he was a child, even if he knew he was never going to come on top. Caprice was long used to this queer interaction between the siblings but still was amused nonetheless.

Isabel grinned, then she walked away.
