Rain continues to fall.

She instructed Joshua to drive his car into the Sadler family’s garage.

Taking the elevator to the villa’s living room, the four older brothers were still awake, waiting in the living room for someone to come in.

They did not look very well.

There was a strong urge to confront and call someone to account.

Xylia held Joshua’s hand. Facing her four brothers, she showed no sign of nervousness.

Needless to say, Joshua’s possessiveness toward Xylia, both overt and covert, was blatantly displayed before the four brothers of the Sadler family.

Now that he has finally gained official recognition, he is even more eager to show off at the first opportunity in front of the four brothers of the Sadler family.

Look!

‘So what if they are your biological elder brother? Your husband is truly the one who will accompany you throughout your life.‘ Joshua thought.

He was very proud.

Xylia took Joshua by the hand and led him before her four brothers, her voice gentle yet commanding.

“Guys, I would like to tell you something.”

She lifted the hand that was joined with Joshua’s and said, “Joshua and I are together now.”

Joshua’s lips curved into a smile. He felt absolutely fantastic.

Official recognition has finally been granted.

However, the four brothers did not look well.

Kaden and Cyrus looked somewhat displeased.

So did Hudson.

Only Leon looked as if he had expected it all along. Although his expression was also neutral, he was already considered relatively gentle compared to his three brothers.

Joshua appeared not to notice the looks on her brothers‘ faces and greeted them with a smile.

“Hello, guys. From now on, we’re family.”

He was very excited and spoke as if he were provoking others.

Xylia shook his hand. When he lowered his head to look at her, she signaled with her eyes for him to be a little more restrained.

Joshua smiled at her.

“I’m just being honest.”

Kaden rose abruptly.

Xylia was startled and instinctively stepped back. Her left foot caught on her right, and she fell backward without noticing.

She gave a cry of surprise.

Fortunately, Joshua grabbed her hand and, with his other arm, wrapped it around her waist, stopping her from tumbling backward.

He turned to look at Kaden, and the smile vanished from his face as his expression became somewhat colder.

“Kaden, you have frightened Xylia.” His voice was cold and indifferent.

The other three brothers also stood up, looking at Xylia with some concern.

Cyrus was the first to react. He quickly stepped forward and pulled Xylia out of Joshua’s arms.

You didn’t twist your foot, did you? Come over and sit down. I’ll take a look at it for you.

He separated Xylia and Joshua, but not in a particularly deliberate way.

Xylia knew she was fine, but she could not stop Cyrus from worrying.

He looked at Joshua.

Kaden suddenly said to Joshua, “Thank you for bringing my sister home today, Mr. Garcia. It is quite late. Let me escort you to the garage.”

Kaden was driving Joshua away.

Joshua glanced at him, then turned to Cyrus and asked, “Is Xylia’s wound all right?”

Cyrus appeared not to have heard.

Xylia replied to Joshua, “It’s all right. I didn’t twist my ankle just now. Let me take you downstairs.”

As she attempted to stand, Cyrus pressed her down.

Cyrus said, “Let Kaden escort him. You need to rest.”

Joshua gave Xylia a reassuring look.

Xylia brought him upstairs, intending to clarify their relationship to her brothers so they would stop targeting

him.

She didn’t expect it to be still so awkward.

She was somewhat regretful about bringing Joshua upstairs.

“Send me a message when you get home.”

Joshua smiled and nodded to her, then, appearing unaffected, bid farewell to her three brothers.

Only Leon responded to Joshua with a slight nod.

Cyrus and Hudson both ignored him.

Xylia felt a pang in her heart, and her face darkened.

“Kaden, come up quickly. I need to talk to you about something.” She said to Kaden.

Kaden understood that she was worried he might make things difficult for Joshua, and responded with a slight nod.

After the two entered the elevator and went down, Xylia withdrew her gaze and turned to look at her three brothers.

She did her best to restrain her emotions. “Guys, being with Joshua is my own decision. You may choose not to support me, but I hope you will give him the respect he deserves.”

Her voice was subtle, yet possessed an intangible power that they could not ignore.

Cyrus looked at Xylia and asked, “What kind of respect?”

“The most basic courtesy between people.”

For instance, when Joshua spoke, they shouldn’t have ignored him or put him in an awkward position.

Cyrus frowned. “Xylia, respect is mutual. You got together without the consent of us. You were the first to not respect us.”

Xylia looked up at Cyrus in surprise.

“Cyrus, I am 29 years old. I am an adult and capable of making my own decisions about whom I date, right?”

Cyrus shook his head.

“If you were capable of making your own judgments, you would not have been together with Connor and ultimately seen your marriage fail.”

At the mention of Connor, Xylia’s expression abruptly darkened.

She no longer conceals her emotions.

“Cyrus, I am grateful for the care and favoritism you all have shown me, but I do not believe you can control the course of my life.

“During the darkest period of my life, it was Joshua who persistently helped me overcome adversity. He is not only my partner but also my benefactor. If you continue to treat him this way, I will consider myself never having returned to the Sadler family.”

Cyrus’s expression darkened.

That was taking it too far.

Xylia rose to her feet and said calmly, “I am tired and need to rest.”
