Simon frowned slightly and said in a low, stern voice, “Shut up.”
Looking at his clueless younger brother, he only felt a wave of frustration.
This idiot couldn’t even catch on to a simple look.
How completely useless.

Keith’s narrow eyes swept over them, sharp and deep. “You’re helping your stepsister steal your biological sister’s man, and you still think you’re standing on the moral high ground?”
Simon was speechless.
He was just about to explain, but Keith didn’t give him the chance.
He took Autumn by the hand and walked away.
Behind them, Lucas was left speechless.
A biological brother helping a mistress’ daughter steal his own sister’s husband?
This was the biggest bombshell of the night.
This was beyond scandalous.
Simon stood frozen in place, replaying Keith’s words in his mind.
Hector stared at Keith walking away with Autumn and couldn’t help asking, “Simon, who is that guy? And what did he mean by what he said just now?”
Seeing how respectful everyone was toward Keith, he began to feel uneasy.
Could it be that Autumn really did manage to latch onto someone powerful?
Simon frowned deeply and sighed. “He’s the Sinclair heir. I don’t know exactly what he meant either. Did we actually misunderstand Autumn?”
From the way Keith defended her, it seemed like they’d known each other for a long time.
With someone like the Sinclair heir backing her, why would she still bother with Julian?
That would explain a lot-like where her invitation came from, and that gown she was wearing.
They must’ve all come from Keith.
Hector looked surprised for a moment, then scoffed, “Simon, you really think someone like him would fall for
someone like Autumn?
“Was it her college degree that impressed him? Or her manipulative little games? She’s clearly the one throwing
herself at him.

“A girl like her is no threat to us. Don’t forget, the Sinclair heir and the White heiress are engaged. If the White family’s heiress finds out Autumn’s trying to seduce her fiancé, what do you think she’ll do?”
The Sinclair family was the top elite in Northhaven.
Their standards were sky-high.
Autumn dreaming of marrying into that family?
She was delusional.
Not to mention, the engagement arrangement between the Sinclair and White families had been planned a long time ago.
Some things are simply destined.
No amount of scheming can change that.
Simon found himself agreeing with Hector, so he didn’t dwell on it any further.
At that moment, Luna approached them arm-in-arm with Julian, smiling brightly. “Simon, Hector, what took you so long?”
Hector replied casually, “Ran into an old friend, ended up chatting a bit longer.”
As for who that “old friend” was, he didn’t say—because every time Autumn was mentioned, things got tense.
It was better to leave it alone.
Julian seemed distracted.
A moment ago, he thought he saw Autumn walk past-with two men beside her.
Just as he was trying to get a better look, Luna had stepped in and pulled him this way, blocking his view.
But then again, maybe Autumn had already been dragged off by Ryan and Grant.
That would explain why he hadn’t seen them since.
When Hector suddenly brought up a technical issue, Julian joined the conversation with Simon, quickly putting the earlier tension out of mind.
Meanwhile, Autumn was still being led forward by Keith, feeling the weight of countless eyes on her.
She could practically feel them burning holes through her back.
Spotting Ethan not far ahead, Autumn hesitated, then spoke. “Um… I see my friend over there, so I’ll go ahead and catch up with him.”
