Face reality...
Hearing his words, Sumr Shawcross froze.
The reality was, after finally returning to her twenties, thinking she could save her family, they still ended up leaving her... And in such a brutal way right in front of her...
She was in a daze for a mont before suddenly recalling sothing, slowly raising her head, looking at the man in front of her, and asked.
"Did you know my brother would get into trouble?"
She rembered her brother had ntioned before that Noah Drexler was investigating him.
Facing her question, Noah Drexler only furrowed his brow slightly, pursed his lips, and decisively admitted.
"Yes."
Hearing his answer, Sumr stopped for a mont.
"Those people were brought by you, weren’t they?" She took a gentle breath, suddenly recalling how, last ti when she went to see her brother, Noah Drexler also stirred up quite a scene in Narsus City, thinking she had been kidnapped...
And this ti, the situation was very similar...
This ti, Noah Drexler was silent for two seconds, then he moved his Adam’s apple and spoke.
"Yes!"
Even if Sean Shawcross was unhard this ti, he wouldn’t let him go!
As his voice fell, Sumr’s eyes widened a bit more, looking at Noah Drexler’s eyes, filled with sorrow...
She opened her lips, wanting to say sothing, but found she had nothing to say.
She couldn’t understand why things turned out this way.
Everything was supposed to be going well, developing in the direction she envisaged.
She could protect her brother and Noah Drexler, and the family could live happily in this city.
Was it her fault...
This feeling of helplessness suddenly made her feel deeply exhausted.
After a long silence, Sumr suddenly spoke up, her voice returning to calm.
"I’m tired... I want to rest." She said softly, not wanting to continue with this topic.
Saying this, she withdrew her wrist held by him, dragging her sprained foot, turning around, and prepared to return to bed to rest.
Watching her struggling figure, Noah Drexler’s eyes paused, the next mont... he could no longer hold back, striding forward, reaching out to grab her arm, and pulled her forcefully.
Sumr, not particularly tall at 160 cm, was considered petite and delicate to Noah Drexler! She was easily pulled into his embrace, held tightly!
The sudden embrace made Sumr’s breath suddenly tighten sowhat.
At this mont, she could feel his clear and powerful heartbeat.
The burning warmth in his embrace caused her to montarily lose focus, her thoughts clearing slightly, finally feeling a trace of living in the real world.
Then the man leaned down, lowered his head, and moved close to her ear.
Subsequently, his domineering, almost commanding voice suddenly sounded.
"Sumr Shawcross, if you feel uncomfortable, let it out!"
At this mont, his handso face displayed a complex and heavy expression.
In the past, if she knew that her brother’s death was connected to him, she would have certainly raised hell with him.
But now, her calmness was throwing him off balance, flustering him...
He didn’t care if she hated him because when she hated him, she lived without a care in the world.
He couldn’t stand her tornting herself!
Her current state was more painful for him than if she had stabbed him directly with a knife!
