Chapter 394

Daniel wondered if Brad's physical condition had rendered him unable to act on his desires, which would explain why he did nothing with Jean. He knew better than anyone how deeply Brad admired her.

In his youth, his thoughts were consumed by desire whenever he was with the girl he loved. Given Brad's reputation for self-control, Daniel found it hard to believe he could maintain it under these circumstances.

Brad was known for his meticulousness about cleanliness. Otherwise, he would have changed out of his clothes, rather than merely unfastening a few buttons on his shirt. It was evident that he had collapsed into bed without bothering to change.

Brad eventually regained his composure under Daniel's intense gaze. However, his expression tightened when he saw Jean under the covers. He said plainly, "Dad, I swear I didn't touch her. I don't know why she's in my bed."
