Inside the car. Taylor glanced at his elder sister with a mischievous grin. “So, what kept you so busy today?” he asked, his tone light and teasing. “Let me guess–quality time with my brother–in–law?”

Lily’s cheeks flushed pink as she shot him a glare. “Oh, stop it!” she muttered, clearly embarrassed.

“Ooooh.” Taylor teased further, leaning back with a playful smirk. “I see. Should I be expecting a nephew or niece soon?”

“Honestly. Taylor, you’re impossible!” she huffed, trying to steer the conversation elsewhere. “For your information, I was meeting Ethan’s little sister today, which is why I was late.”

The mention of Ethan’s sister caused Taylor’s expression to shift subtly, though Lily, focused on the road, didn’t notice at first. “Ivy?” he asked, sounding slightly surprised.

“Yeah, Lily replied, smiling. “She’s wonderful. It was my first time meeting her, but I could tell right away. she’s genuine and kind. None of that fake politeness or showy behavior you’d expect from someone raised in a wealthy family.”

Taylor nodded absently, his thoughts clearly elsewhere. “She is… really something,” he murmured, a small smile playing on his lips.

“Yes,” Taylor admitted, trying to keep his expression neutral. “I’ve met her once.”

“And?” Lily pressed, her eyebrows wiggling playfully.

“And what?” Taylor shot back, feigning ignorance. “It’s not what you think, elder sister. I’ve just met her once. I don’t… like her or anything.”

Lily’s laugh bubbled up as she shrugged. “I never said you liked her, did I? But for the record, even if you did, I doubt it’d work out. She already has a boyfriend.”
