Chapter 652


    “I’m not sure, but keeping my distance from all thedies seems like the right move Romeo said, then


    looked up at Chasel and asked, “Chasel, what brings you


    here?”


    “Be said she wanted to take a walk alone, and I couldn’t just sit still, so I came to check on her


    “Same here”


    “Are you really not interested in Serena at all?” Chasel asked as they walked on, “If Be hadn’te

    back to this family, would you have married Serena?”


    “No way” Romeo’s voice was firm “Actually, I even considered calling off the engagement before.”


    Not only had he considered it, he had actually almost done it.


    But then he found out that his betrothed was Be, so he changed his mind at thest minute.


    Hearing this, Chasel was taken aback. “Do you realize what calling off the engagement at thest


    minute would mean for our two families?” Tm aware”


    It would mean a total fallout between the two families.


    It would mean he and David could no longer be brothers,


    It would mean he’d have a formidablepetitor in the business world.


    It would mean usations from his family, a loss of the elder’s dignity, and the reputation of the


    McMin family beingpletely tarnished.


    “But I can’tmit to a lifetime with someone I don’t love, and I believe you guys wouldn’t want your


    beloved one being neglected by me either.”


    Chasel was puzzled: “Is Serena really that bad? Over all these years, hasn’t she attracted you at all?”


    “I don’t know if you’ve noticed, Chasel, but ever since Be came back home, Serena hasn’t exactly


    been friendly to her,” Romeo pointed out, “including deliberately provoking and testing Be at the


    dinner table and her inappropriate behavior.”


    “Romeo, Serena is my sister!”


    These words were hard to swallow.


    Before Serena’s true identity was revealed, every member of the Collins family had doted on her for


    eighteen years.


    Not only Keh and Louisa, but all five brothers treated her like a princess, catering to her every


    need and protecting her at all costs.


    This princess, whom they’ve watched grow up, might be a bit haughty, but surely she’s not as bad as


    Romeo painted her to be?


    Chasel was having a hard time hearing someone speak ill of his sister in front of him.


    Romeo understood, after all, who would suspect their innocent sister of having ulterior motives? Just


    like he wouldn’t suspect his family of being bad people without reason, right?


    “She’s been the princess for eighteen years, and suddenly everything she had no longer belongs to


    her. It’s normal for her to feel left out and try to draw attention, It’s just girly stuff as long as she doesn’t


    hurt Be.”


    Just as Chasel finished, Romeo asked, “And if she causes trouble for Be, would you stand by and do


    nothing?”


    “If she intentionally targets Be, I’ll stop her once I notice.”


    “And if it happens where you can’t see? Or if you can’t do anything about it?”


    “Romeo” Chasel looked at Romeo, seemingly dissatisfied. “Is Serena really that bad in your eyes?”


    “You saw what happened when she sent the fruit.” Romeo met his gaze, word by word, his voice firm:


    “Her intentions weren’t pure.”


    “If I heard correctly, she was trying to draw a line between you two.”


    “I could hear your footsteps from far away, couldn’t she?”
