Miguel nodded slightly. “Why do I feel like you‘ve been avoiding metely?“.
“Have I?” Ste took a sip of water and concealed her emotions. “I‘ve agreed to go to Ahn City with you.
What do you mean?”
“It‘s not that, but... I don‘t know how to describe it.”
Miguel sighed again. He said, “Have you ever felt that you‘ve been avoiding me emotionally?” Miguel
believed he had made it clear.
Ste instantly frowned. She put the ss of water down and looked him in the eye. “That‘s irrelevant.
I‘ve always treated you like my own family.”
“Is that so?” Miguel was stubborn. He said, smiling, “We can be a family as husband and wife too.”
“Miguel!” Ste raised her voice at once. She said to him sternly, “Don‘t make jokes like that. I don‘t like
it!”
Ste treated Miguel like Roger. When Miguel said those words, it brought her back to the time when
Roger made his bizarre confession in the hospital.
Ste felt like a failure. She had no idea what she‘d been doing all these years. She could not believe
that she did not realize Roger‘s feelings for her.

Miguel was surprised by her overreaction . After a short silence, he said, somewhat hurt, “Aren‘t you
being a little too conservative? We‘re family, yes, but we‘re not blood rted. You don’t have to keep
pushing me away...”
The weather was getting a little cool. Then, the rain started to pour.
It was almost midnight. Ste stood on the balcony and watched Miguel leave angrily.
She sighed heavily. They had just engaged in a very harsh argument.
Miguel said nothing. After looking at her for a few moments, he picked up her car keys and turned
around.

Miguel said nothing. After looking at her for a few moments, he picked up her car keys and turned
around.
Ste didn‘t know how to express her emotions. The feeling of exhaustion engulfed her.
For the past three years, she lived a peaceful and happy life. With her job and career on the rise, she
had everything she wanted in her hands. However, she inevitably felt empty and ufortable.
Looking back, she missed her parents and Roger a lot. Even so, she was fine with what she had.
Ste did not want to get involved or respond to Miguel‘s feelings. She was at a loss, having no idea how
to handle their rtionship.
Miguel expected everyone to be asleep, but he found the living room brightly lit as he arrived home. He
walked over and saw his grandfather Marcus sitting on the sofa in his favorite ck nightrobe.
Marcus Garcia sat there quietly. When he heard the movement at the entrance, he turned over to see
Miguel. “Why are you sote? Were you at Cicily‘s ce again?”
Miguel nodded. “Grandpa , why are you still up sote?”
“I heard some gossip about you two today. You picked Cicily at Infinity Hall with flowers and looked pretty
close,” Marcus said in a casual tone. He sounded as if it was nothing serious.
Miguel observed the look on Marcus‘s face and was a little relieved to see that he wasn‘t here to ask
questions. “This is between the two of us. Don‘t bother.”
Marcus was older and more enlightened. In the past, he would use his influence to force a couple to
break up, but his son‘s tragedy woke him up.

Marcus never did something like that again. Instead, he was very careful at dealing with Miguel. “I‘m not
lecturing you. I just thought the both of you shouldn‘t blow things out of proportion. If it‘s not confirmed
yet, don‘t make yourself aughing stock...”
