Thomas pressed his lips together, not answering, and instead glanced at Natasha again.

She quietly watched the farce, her expression indifferent, showing no emotion.

Thomas sighed inwardly, realizing things were no longer the same.

Thomas eventually took Noel out of the police station because Madeline’s mental state had improved, and she wanted to see Noel.

Both sets of parents signed, and lawyers would naturally handle the rest.

After leaving the police station, Natasha offered to take Leonie home, but Leonie vehemently shook her head, refusing.

What a joke. How could someone of her standing bother Alexei to be her driver?

She grinned, pulling her friends along. “No need to send me off. I’ll go with them. Everyone is staying at my place tonight, and we’ll part ways tomorrow morning”

With so many people, safety wasn’t an issue. To take them home, Alexei arranged for two additional drivers to escort them home.

Unlike the joyful scene of victory on the other side, the atmosphere between the Clark family brothers was cold enough to freeze.

Noel watched Natasha, whose laughter was clear under a distant streetlamp, and suddenly asked Thomas, “What you said just now is true? Will you really give up on me?”

Although there was an intention to use Natasha’s soft heart to easily resolve the issue, the statement about not wanting to deal with Noel was not an empty promise.

Noel, being closest to Thomas, was the most sensitive.

If not for the call from Madeline just now, Thomas might have left Noel alone at the police station.

The happy and harmonious home he had cherished for twenty–one years was shattered

“Aren’t you my brother?” he asked, his voice filled with deep pain and doubt.

“Brother?” Thomas said mockingly, “If I could, I wouldn’t want a younger brother.”

Noel’s mind reeled as if struck, and he stood frozen in place

Thomas said nothing more, casting an indifferent glance at the source of the commotion. He happened to meet the thoughtful gaze of Natasha, who was staring at them
