Cherished By Seven Sisters

Chapter 288 Challenge From Andreas

Emrys smirked, muttering under his breath, I’ve already playfully teased you before, so does it really matter if I take a few more glances? Besides, I wouldn’t even bother looking at ordinary people!”

“What did you say?”

Cough, cough… What I mean is that Maximus is really clueless. He has a beautiful woman like you around, but he chooses to stick with Myles. Do you think there might be something off about his preferences?

Fortunately, Cordelia hadn’t heard clearly, and Emrys quickly changed the subject.

As expected. Cordelia didn’t make a fuss. She said, “What nonsense are you talking about? It was me who drove Maximus away.

You drove him away? I just paused to exchange a few words with Solomon earlier. In such a short time, did you two start arguing?”

“It wouldn’t be accurate to say we argued. The main issue was that he immediately started trying to set me up with Myles. I was incredibly annoyed, so naturally, I told him to stay away from me.”

“I see. Emrys chuckled. Marimus probably has no idea what had transpired between Myles and them. His sudden appearance as a matchmaker is bound to earn him nothing but disdain from Cordelia. Serves him right!

Cordelia suddenly fixed her gaze on Emrys, asking, “Hmm? Rys, why do I sense a hint of satisfaction on your face?”

Emrys immediately suppressed his laughter, shaking his head as he said, You must be mistaken.”

“Is that so?”

Cordelia looked suspicious. Her beautiful eyes were still fixed on Emrys as if trying to read his thoughts.

Emrys firmly stated, “You misinterpreted it.”

His emotions were, in fact, quite complex.

It felt as if you had a favorite toy, and then suddenly, one day, someone appeared, claiming they wanted to take half of it. That feeling was incredibly distressing. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Maximus‘ appearance gave Emrys a feeling of this kind.

In other words, it was jealousy.

Previously, Cordelia was only a sister to him. Now, she had become a sister to two people, which naturally left a bitter taste in Einrys‘ heart. If I had known it would come to this. I might as well have been bolder back then and truly embraced the title of his husband!

“Rys.” As Emrys was lost in thought. Cordelia suddenly flashed a charming smile and said, “I know what you’re thinking. I can give you an answer now. If I had to choose between you and Maximus, my choice

would still be you.”

As it turned out, Cordelia had long since noticed the discomfort in Emrys‘ heart.

Even without a blood relation, what did it matter? The bond she shared with Emrys had long since surpassed the measure of mere kinship.

Emrys was deeply moved and said, “Delia, you don’t have to choose. You can have both at the same time.”

“You’re not allowed to be jealous anymore, okay?”

“No, I won’t.” Emrys chuckled, revealing his pearly white teeth as he spoke. “Anyway, as long as Maximus is your younger brother, and I’m Maximus’s brother–in–law, I will never have to be jealous again.”

“In your dreams.” Cordelia extended her delicate finger and lightly tapped Emrys‘ head, yet her heart was filled with delight, even carrying a hint of anticipation.

As the two were sharing a warm moment, a figure suddenly appeared from around the corner. It was Andreas, who pointed a finger at Emrys and said, “You, fight me!”

Cordelia was taken aback. Where did this Jetroinian show up from out of nowhere?

Emrys was momentarily taken aback.

Andreas, speaking in his broken Chanaean, repeated, “You, fight me!”

It was only then that Emrys realized Andreas was challenging him to a fight. He looked at Andreas with a perplexed expression and asked, “Why should I engage in a fight with you?” What is wrong with him?

At that moment, Myles‘ voice echoed from around the corner. “Mr. Kross is a friend of mine. He heard that you have impressive skills, so he wants to spar with you. He means no harm.”

At this point, how could Emrys not have understood? This cunning Myles, who claimed to invite me over for a meal as an apology, has actually set a trap for me here!
