"Bastard, dare you say the lab explosion had nothing to do with you?"
Clarence was always straightforward, laying it all out there without a filter. He added, "Don't think for a moment
that The Ford Group is in the bag for you, a bastard child. What makes you think you can stand your ground in
the Ford family?"
"At the very least, I'm the one in the Ford family right now, am | not?"
Palmer smiled, glancing at Gregory, "Alright, I've delivered the message dad askedto. Whether you come
back or not, that's on you."
As he turned to leave, he twisted the knife a bit, "Oh, and happy birthday. I'm surprised you're still around to
celebrate it."
With that, he left.
Clarence was livid. "What's he implying? That he regrets Greg didn't die in that lab two years ago??"
"Enough, Clarence."
Dailey was the picture of calm, "What's the point of bickering like this? It's beneath you."
Seeing Dailey and Gregory unfazed, Clarence cooled down, turning to Gregory, "Greg, was that explosion two
years ago just about ruining his project?"
Dailey leaned back, "You're underestimating the younger brother's thirst for revenge."
| tensed up at that.
Palmer was known for his ruthless methods.
Even now, thinking back to that explosion, | felt a shiver down my spine.

If we were to clash with him again...
Gregory, sensing my anxiety, took my hand and gently squeezed, "Don't worry, | won't let anything happen this
time."
Dailey cut to the chase, "Are you going to the family dinner tomorrow night?"
"Of course." Gregory's lips curled up slightly. "Wouldn't miss it."
After everyone had left, Christine retreated to her room to dive into video games.
Ike took a bath and then crashed on the bed, his little belly sticking out, looking utterly peaceful in his sleep.
After tucking him in, | quietly closed the door behindand headed out.
Gregory was still in the living room, waiting.
| was surprised, "You're still here?"
| had asked him to head hand rest while | helped Ike with his bath.
Gregory sat on the couch and pulleddown to sit on his lap, "I didn't want you to worry, thought I'd stay and
comfort you a bit longer."
This kind of intimacy felt so natural with him.
If I didn't know him better, I'd suspect he was a seasoned heartbreaker.
| wrapped my arms around his waist, resting my head on his
shoulder, murmuring, "l am w
Gregory. | can't bear the thought of something happening to you again." Content belongs to Find.Org
Another incident like the explosion could break me.
I'd lose my mind.
Gregory's chin rested on my head as he chuckled lightly, "Do you likethat much?"
"It's not about liking or not liking."
| glared at him, but then, under the weight of his expectant gaze, |
surrendered. "Okay, yes, | do like
you.

thought of you gefigaTy ENE

Reflecting on it, he had saved me, helped me, countless times.
But my feelings for him didn't solidify in any specific moment.
It was his unwavering, unconditional, definitive choice to always pick me.
