He had initially thought Xavier would be a threat, but who would’ve guessed Xavier would take the initiative to terminate the engagement.

Chris was relieved, but he couldn’t show it. “I don’t want to be involved with your matters. Just as long as you don’t make Dad mad, I’m fine with it.”

Xavier smiled and said, “I’ll bring my girlfriend to the banquet and introduce her to all of you.”

Chris pondered aloud, “Could it be that he really has no intention of fighting over the property?”

Wendy chuckled. “He’s your brother. How could you not know?”

Hearing the resentment in her tone, Chris returned to his senses, walked over to her with a smile, and took her into his arms. “Are you angry again? I’ve been busy with work these days, and I don’t have time to accompany you. After I finish this project, I’ll take you out, okay?”
