Katherine was quite uncomfortable inside when she heard about Hector’s words.
She raised the glass and gazed at Hector, “Actually, I always see you as my friend. You are the one who I confided to when I was at my lowest times. I told you what was buried in my heart but was too afraid to say it out. Hector, you are different since then, but...”
Katherine drooped her head and gulped down the juice.
She can’t drink, so she can only use this juice for wine.
Then she continued, “But I have someone in my heart.”
Right, she always had this man in her heart.
Though he was an asshole before, she just couldn’t forget him easily since this was the first time that she had crush on someone and the first time she ever loved someone.
Kyle stared at them for a while and didn’t say anything.
After pausing for a few seconds, Katherine continued, “Hector, you are a great guy, but the truth is that I’m not good enough for you. You deserve a better girl.”
Hector smiled self-deprecatingly, “I’m a great guy, but still, you don’t love me.”
Katherine instantly went speechless.
Kyle then sighed, “I really don’t know when the relationship between you guys became so weird.”
How would he know? He only knew how to have fun all day and certainly didn’t sense these things.
The subject of their conversation just shifted after he interrupted.
Hector looked up and chuckled, “I actually thought you would fall in love with Katherine at first.”
Kyle was spooked and hurriedly waved his hand, “Stop it. I have no feelings for women. They are all too troubling. I genuinely felt terrible when I saw women around.”
Katherine then joked, “Hector, you got to be careful.”
Kyle immediately widened his eyes, “I certainly have no feeling for men! Don’t mess with me. Katherine. I’m pretty serious.”
Kyle’s face changed a bit, “It’s just that the women around me are seldom normal. I really got scared. I’d rather lead this life all by myself. Isn’t it a great thing to have this life with endless money?”
Katherine couldn’t help laughing and really wondered what Rosie did to Hector to leave him so traumatized.
The dinner got off to a good start and the atmosphere was quite merry. While they were chatting, Katherine told them what happened to the Hendersons.
Kyle was in no mood to care about what was going on outside recently.
He immediately paused when he heard about Jakub’s death, “Died? He is died?”
Kyle clearly had a hard time processing this news.
After all, he was one of the Hendersons and Hector had met him a few times before and remembered him as an energetic boy who was always smiling.
Kyle didn’t have a great impression with Clara, so he didn’t really like Jakub.
But he was still taken aback when such a young soul just departed from this world.
Kyle lamented, “Such a shame. I think that he is far much better than his sister. I heard that elder Mr. Henderson had all his hopes on that boy. Though he was still young, he had to learn many things.”
Elder Mr. Henderson had him to study about the business at a young age.
He clearly wanted Jakub to have the company, but now that Jakub was gone, Kyle really wondered if elder Mr. Henderson can hold it together.
He then mentioned the old Mr. Henderson.
