Kai Bright’s accusatory gaze fiercely stabbed towards Charles Seymour, but upon seeing Charles slowly eating that plate of stew... hmm, nevermind, Charles really put in a lot of effort for his cousin, it’s no easy feat! It’s really not easy! Since Sophie isn’t worried about Ophelia pulling any tricks, then why should he worry? With Charles overseeing things here, who dares to make a fuss. After dinner, Sophie read a book for a while and then went to the gym to work out. According to Charles, exercising more improves physical fitness, and with medication, recovery will be faster. While Sophie was sweating it out in the gym, Kai Bright was sprawled on a chair, munching on chips when a book abruptly hit him. Luckily, he was quick enough to catch it steadily: "I say, can we stop with the ’murder’ attempts for no reason?" "Why are you still here?" Charles turned from his computer, looking at Kai with unmistakable disdain in his eyes. Kai covered his chest, feeling a faint pain, and helplessly stared at Charles: "Am I just that annoying?" "Yes." Charles answered bluntly without any courtesy. Kai sprang up, shoved the chair away, pointed at Charles, and shouted firmly: "Even if you dislike me, I’m staying here. Hmph!" After speaking, he turned and left. Thankfully, he knew where the guest room was. He was staying at his brother-in-law’s house, and that was justified! Kai left quickly as if he didn’t see the not-so-obvious hint of a smile in Charles’s eyes. The next morning, after freshening up, Kai headed downstairs, wanting to check the kitchen to see what breakfast was. Get full chapters from 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡•𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢•𝕟𝕖𝕥 Just because of this food, he wants to move in. Of course, he knows that Charles definitely wouldn’t agree. How could that jealous guy let anyone disrupt his two-person world with Sophie? So, occasionally coming over for a free meal would suffice. Kai hadn’t yet entered the kitchen when he saw several breakfast items on the dining table and froze entirely. The presentation was exquisite, and the aroma enticing, making his mouth water profusely! He must visit his cousin frequently in the future, and casually mooch some food! Charles came out carrying a plate, with the barbecue pork bun still steaming enticingly, his steps halted, and his eyes instantly froze cold enough to break ice. Kai, who was eating happily, suddenly felt a chill around him. With half a shrimp dumpling in his mouth, he slowly raised his head, looking at Charles in front of him as if he were facing a grim reaper. He inexplicably felt cold air creeping up his neck, as if a sharp blade was there; one slight movement, and his head would happily bid farewell to his neck. With a plop, the delicious shrimp dumpling fell back onto the plate. "Wha-what’s the matter?" Kai stammered, asking, because this time he truly didn’t do anything. Why was Charles emitting such cold vibes towards him, and this terrifying chill mixed with murderous intent? Charles looked deeply at Kai, and just that one look made more than just Kai’s liver tremble; his heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys were all quaking. Then, without a word, Charles put down the barbecue pork bun and turned into the kitchen. Kai was still frozen in place, unable to recover for a while. This- this- this... what was Charles up to in the early morning? "Cousin, morning." Sophie’s voice broke the stiff atmosphere in the dining room, snapping Kai back to reality, and he relaxed his lips to respond with a normal smile, "Sophie, morning."
