"No one can hurt her; it's just that she doesn't want to let down her guard, " Cason said, seemingly a bit helpless.
He glanced at Lilah, whose face made him momentarily dazed.
"Miss Lilah, you must know, Miranda has a strong personality.
I just want her to...
"She makes her own choices, " Lilah stated bluntly. She thought of Gerard's investigation and became more convinced that Cason wasn't a good person. Clearly, it was his family that had been oppressing Miranda, so how could it be her fault?
"Miss Lilah, let's not be like this, okay? Let's have a proper talk," Cason spread his hands, appearing a bit helpless.
"I have nothing to discuss with you. Remember this: the harm you did to Miranda before, she might overlook, but I won't let it slide easily. It's best if you keep your distance from her."
She paused mid-sentence because she saw Cason bypass her, his eyes lighting up as he looked behind her.
"Miranda." Cason stood up, bypassed Lilah, and went straight to Miranda.
Lilah was momentarily stunned, quickly turned around, and indeed saw her sister.
Miranda didn't seem to blame him for anything, letting him embrace her, and she even smiled warmly.
"Miranda, I've missed you so much. Come back with me, alright? I've convinced them; they agreed for us to be together," Cason said with a smile.
Lilah was speechless.
You're a grown adult, needing your family's approval to have a girlfriend?!
What a dependent and immature person!
Lilah thought Miranda would definitely refuse.
Otherwise, all the hurt she endured would be for nothing.
But to her surprise, Miranda replied without hesitation, "Sure, when do we go back?"
Lilah: "... "Hl!
What's going on?
Did her sister lose her mind, or did that jerk Cason cast some spell on her?
"That's great, Miranda. I knew you'd wait for me." Cason turned his head quickly and glanced at Lilah, as if showing off something.
Lilah couldn't bear it any longer and shouted, "No, this man is no good. Open your eyes!"
Miranda paused, her face slightly stiffening. “This is my business."
