I rxed my body, turned to face Han, and questioned him, “Why are you here? Weren’t you supposed to be soothing Danielle?”


    It was puzzling indeed.


    Typically, Han spent this time pacifying Danielle.This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    Besides, my recent words had been harsh and direct.


    I hadn’t expected Han toe to me.


    Reflecting on earlier events, I felt somewhat downcast.


    I understood well that Han held no romantic feelings for Danielle.


    He viewed her solely as his sister, yet her deliberate antics to irk me made me quite unhappy.


    Still, Han’s inability to see through her schemes frustrated me.


    With this in mind, I couldn’t help but remark coolly, “I recall her throwing a tantrum when I left earlier.


    Unless something unexpected has urred, you should be the one to calm her down.


    ”


    “Zoe…” Han gazed at me.


    “Actually, I came here to discuss Danielle with you.


    ”


    Realizing he was here to talk about Danielle again, and not out of concern for me, I responded without any emotion, “Alright.


    ”


    Han had a knack for frustrating people.


    His approach often left me more upset than I had been at the restaurant.


    If everything was alright, he must have been trying to convince me to be kind and not to argue with Danielle.


    He then made the excuse that she was still young and naturally prone to being willful.


    It was always the same.


    I grabbed my clothes in impatience.


    Han was always like this.


    He liked to speak well of Danielle.


    He consistently tried to excuse her mistakes, but I didn’t want to listen to what he said at all.


    I understood Danielle’s intentions.


    Our conflict didn’t need Han’s mediation.


    Even if the tension was superficially alleviated, it was futile.


    Nothing would change.


    This problem was unresolvable.


    “You can go back now.


    ” My annoyance peaked.


    “Danielle’s issues are none of my concern.


    You don’t need to involve me, and I don’t wish to hear about it.


    Please leave.


    ”


    Then I turned and walked away from Han.


    But Han caught hold of me.


    He seemed worried I might leave, so he held on firmly and pleaded anxiously, “No, this does concern you.


    Please stay.


    Calm down and listen to what I have to say.


    ”


    Zoe’s POV:


    Seeing Han so concerned only fueled my frustration.


    It was always like this.


    Whenever it came to Danielle, Han would take her side.


    Earlier, as we were in the restaurant, I thought he had finallye to understand and was ready to change after our lengthy disagreements.
