Lilah pressed on, “Like what?"

Cyrus waved his hand, "It's nothing. She's just a girl burdened by her emotions. If you're worried, keep an eye on her and try to minimize her time alone with your sister, okay?"

Lilah felt a chill run down her spine at his words.

Cason left without a word.

Lilah and the others assumed he had returned to Kuskeonga, but Calvin later brought him back from a bar, drunk and foolish.

Miranda sighed, making him some hangover soup and forcing it down his throat.

"Sister, what's wrong with him?" Justina asked cautiously, hiding behind Miranda. Miranda smiled faintly, “Nothing much.

Justina, you should sleep in the guest room tonight. Your brother-in-law isn't feeling well, and I need to take care of him."

Tears welled up in Justina's eyes, "Sister, do you not want to be with me? Did I do something wrong?"

Her aggrieved expression made her seem truly bullied.

Lilah sat at the other end of the sofa, observing the scene unfold. Even with her sharp instincts, she couldn't figure out what the girl was thinking or feeling.

"It's not that, your brother-in-law's health...

"Sister, I'm not feeling well either. My chest has been in pain these past two days, and only being with you makes it a bit better," Justina said with a sob.

At that moment, Cason suddenly sat up and pushed Justina away.

"You silly little girl, don't you understand? She and I are the real pair. Who do you think you are to keep coming between us?"

Caught off guard, Justina fell to the floor. She was momentarily stunned before tears began to fall, her cries full of distress and frustration.

Cason, already on edge from too much alcohol, was further annoyed by the situation.

"Crying, crying, why are you crying? I'm warning you, if you keep showing up at the wrong time, I'll make sure you never come back! You won't see Miranda again!" he shouted coldly.

Frightened, Justina stopped crying. Yet, in the next moment, she suddenly coughed up blood.

Everyone was taken aback.

"What are you doing?" Miranda gave Cason a cold glance and said ho more, personally taking Justina to her room to treat her.

Cason felt a bitter pang in his heart, sitting in the living room all night, and left the next morning.

Lilah couldn't have predicted that things would escalate between the two because of Justina.

However, at that moment, a shocking piece of news arrived.
