HOW TO BECOME A LOYAL SISTER
MONEY TALKS
Her gaze drifted to her oldest brother, and for a moment, their eyes locked in a silent understanding.
She nodded slowly, her expression softening into a mix of concern and resignation.
It was as if she'd suddenly grasped something profound about her brother's situation, and her tantrum had been a manifestation of her own fears and uncertainties.
The oldest brother met her gaze, his eyes filled with a deep sadness and a hint of gratitude, as if appreciative of her understanding.
Candy Lee
Why do I need to marry your friend's son?
The single word "Business" hung in the air, its simplicity belied by the complexity of emotions it evoked.
To an outsider, it might have seemed cold, a harsh reminder of priorities and responsibilities.
But to Cindy, it was a key to understanding the weight of her oldest brother's struggles, a glimpse into the burdens he carried behind his stoic facade.
Candy Lee
I'll go meet him.
Candy Lee
But as what we've promise, you'll give my credit card back with another one.
Lucien Lee
I'm a man of words.
She knew that "Business" wasn't just about transactions and profits; it was about family, legacy, and the sacrifices he made for their sake. The word was a mask, a shield to protect them from the true depths of his worries and fears.
With this understanding, the tension in her body eased slightly, replaced by a sense of empathy and solidarity. She knew that she had to be strong for him, to support him through the trials he faced.
Candy Lee
When can he see me?
Lucien Lee
I'll arrange the meetings.
Candy Lee
But you need to take my brothers too.
Candy Lee
That's my own condition for agreeing this deal.
Leonardo Lee
Does my presence there will make a difference?
Candy Lee
Your presence? No.
Candy Lee
But your opinions? Yes.
Leonardo Lee
*Staring right through her soul*
Candy Lee
I know I'm beautiful, no need to look.
Liam Lee
Why should I also need to be there?
Candy Lee
Maybe because of your face? Just kidding.
Candy Lee
What do you guys thinks? I'm going to meet someone that'll be part of the family, and I'm alone, facing that battle?
Candy Lee
One for all, all for one.
Lucien Lee
That's your answer?
Candy Lee
*Nodded* My money is in front of the battle. I need my money back or else... *Pouting*
Candy Lee
I cannot eat at my favorite cake shop for upcoming event.
Leonardo Lee
💭 Dear brother-in-law, there's no return policy once you marry this little creature.
Lucien Lee
I'm going to send an email tomorrow, and arrange the family meetings.
Candy Lee
*Nodded* Have a good sleep, brother. *Wave her hand*
Leaving the three siblings alone. Candy suddenly ask Leo about his future husband.
Candy Lee
Say Leo, do you know something about that man?
Leonardo Lee
You could ask him.
As he pointed toward Liam's direction.
Liam Lee
I do know something.
Liam Lee
But not for free.
Candy Lee
Of course, you'll never give something for free.
Candy Lee
No need. I'll do it myself.
She walks toward the door where Lucien left. Waving her hand to other siblings left inside the private room.
