fey didn’t know how to answer at first. She looked a little awkward. “I just thought… maybe you hadn’t xplained what happened before…”

You don’t have to,” Oliver said. “I already know.”

He looked at Ivy, scratched his head, and gave a shy smile. “Ivy, I know you’ve taken good care of me the days. But I might have to let you down a little. I’m going to compete with you for Cecelia.”

Huh?”

vy blinked, completely confused.

Oliver chuckled. “Cecelia just said I can keep being her brother. I want to stay with your team.”

Ivy widened her eyes in shock.

She immediately turned to Cecelia for confirmation.

Cecelia nodded and smiled. “That’s right. From now on, Oliver is my brother too. He’s been acting like one for so long anyway. I’m used to it.”

Ivy sighed, a little helpless. But she knew Cecelia well. She reached out and gently pinched her nose. “Fine. As long as you’re happy. But…”

She looked at Oliver again, her expression turning serious. “You can be Cecelia’s brother, but you’re not mine. And as long as I’m here, you’re not taking Cecelia away from me.”

Oliver froze for a second.

Of course he understood what she meant. Afraid of being misunderstood, he quickly waved his hands.

Oliver clumsily explained himself, “No-sorry, Ivy! I didn’t mean I’d take your sister away.”

Good,” Ivy huffed. She pulled Cecelia behind her and lowered her voice.

I respect your choice, Cecelia. And I trust your judgment. I know Oliver isn’t a bad person. If he wants to stay, then he can stay.”

Then she looked at Oliver again. “But let me be clear. Whatever happened in the past-you need to the that out yourself. Cecelia never forced you into anything.”

Min.” Cecelia nodded, then turned to Oliver.

She knew he needed time.

There wasn’t much she could give him.

Letting him stay, letting him be her brother-that was enough. It gave him something to hold on to. A reason to keep going.

“Okay

Oliver nodded and went back to his room.

Once the door closed, Ivy finally let out a breath. She grabbed Cecelia’s hand and whispered. I’m still worried about his mental state.”

“He’ll be okay, Cecelia said. She could feel it, Oliver wanted to live.

Ivy nodded. “Hendrick came by earlier. Said he needed to talk to you. Do you want to go see him?”

“They’re back already?”

think so.

“Okay.”

I’ll go take a look”

The two of them went downstairs.

But Hendrick wasn’t there.

Cecelia frowned and walked over to Amber and Draven, who were busy at the grill.

Amber said, “Hendrick waited here for a while. When you didn’t come down, he left. Said he’d come back later.”

“I bet he just couldn’t handle it anymore,” Draven said proudly, lifting up a freshly roasted chicken. “Otherwise he’d be drooling over this smell! Cecelia, Ivy-check this out. Not bad, right?”

The rich aroma filled the air.

Not bad? It smelled amazing.

Cecelia’s attention was instantly pulled away. Forget Hendrick-food came first.

Amber was sent upstairs to call Blake and Oliver down for dinner

Soon, the two most eye-catching inen in the team came down.

Cecelia already had gloves on and was tearing into the roasted chicken. The skin was crispy, the meat juic and the smell kept drifting out.

Two whole chickens didn’t even feel like enough for six prople.
