Eventually, as Han focused on pacifying Danielle and even assured her, “I will never leave you,” her emotions gradually began to stabilize.


    Han exhaled deeply with relief and instructed the maid, “Please take Danielle home, look after her carefully, and call me if anything happens.


    ”


    “Yes!”


    The maid, visibly relieved, nodded emphatically.


    After they had left the restaurant, Han’s voice tinged with regret, and he turned to us and apologized.


    “I’m sorry for not handling my family matters better and making you witness this.


    ”


    I just shook my head at his words.


    Family matters?


    With things having escted to this level, Han still saw it as merely a family issue?


    I pondered if his mind was messing with him.


    I sighed deeply, couldn’t bear to watch any longer, and said, “Han, haven’t you caught on yet?”


    “What?” Han looked confused.


    “Debra, what are you saying?”


    Debra’s POV:


    Han’s refusal to see the truth left me feeling quite frustrated.


    Looking at him, I expressed my concern.


    “Han, Danielle’s feelings towards you aren’t just sisterly-it’s moreplicated than that.


    ”


    “No, that can’t be true!” Han’s brow creased deeply as he quickly dismissed my observation.This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    “Debra, you’re making things up! I’m certain Danielle only thinks of me as her brother.


    We’ve been siblings for so long, she naturally relies on me, so it’s understandable that she needs time to warm up to Zoe.


    ”


    “But…”


    I tried to continue, but Han signaled for me to be quiet.


    “Just let me speak.


    I’ve only ever seen Danielle as my sister, and there’s never been anything inappropriate between us.


    How could she have feelings for me? If her feelings were indeed different, why wouldn’t she have mentioned it before? She had many chances; why would she wait until I have a girlfriend to express them?”


    His reaction left meughing in frustration.


    “Ivy, can you believe how stubborn he is? I exined it so clearly, and he still won’t ept it.


    ”


    “Absolutely,” Ivy echoed.


    “And honestly, the way Danielle tries to cause drama is so transparent, her jealousy is tant, she might as well have dered it openly.


    Only Han is unaware of what’s right in front of him.


    ”


    I sighed.


    “It’s no surprise Zoe was so upset earlier, always distant towards Han, firmly refusing to go back with him to the Xeric Pack.


    If I were in her shoes, I’d feel the same; returning would just make me angry because of Danielle.


    ”


    Ivy nodded in agreement.


    “Exactly! Luckily, Caleb isn’t like that.


    If he were, we’d have left long ago.


    ”


    Ivy’sment made me reflective.
