"If my actions don't qualify as liking you, then what the hell does?" Chad was nearly going nuts because of Molly.
Molly said, "Andre's doting on Mia is what you call liking."
"Mia is his wife, the mother of their kids. They're a couple. It's love!" Chad was so pissed off he couldn't have a proper conversation with his sister.
Just then, his phone rang. It was Coleen.
"Hello," Chad answered the call, then said: "I'm dealing with your troublesome daughter!"
Coleen said a quick warning before hanging up.
Chad held his phone and stalled the engine. He planned to start the car and head home, but felt that home wasn't the best place for certain discussions. "Molly, do you understand what I just said?"
Molly nodded. Chad felt like he'd been hit by a hammer. She actually understood.
"I'll keep my distance from now on and be the sister you want."
Chad was speechless. He clenched his fist, then released it. He stared out the window and let out a sigh. He knew he couldn't rush things.
If he was too aggressive, he might scare his sister away, or even drive her into someone else's arms.
Having been Molly's brother for fifteen years, he thought he was her real brother. She was innocent, without any experience in love, completely oblivious to her own feelings.
Chad glanced at her. Just then, Molly was also looking at him. Her eyes were innocent. "Chad, I didn't piss you off today. Why did you sigh?"
Chad didn't know how to respond.
"Molly, without my permission, you're not allowed to date. If anyone chases you, you have to tell me."
Molly obediently nodded. "Chad, I will definitely tell you. You can help me judge whether the person is trustworthy. If he is, I will consider it. If not, I won't."
Chad restarted the car. "If that Jack harasses you again, tell me right away."
"Okay. Chad, are you going to tell me about a case today?" Molly asked curiously.
Chad was taken aback, then remembered that she was referring to the horrifying murder cases he used to scare her with. Chad told her, "No case this time. If you want to live constantly in tension, constantly bickering with your mother-in-law, fighting over inheritance with your illegal sister-in-law, then encountering a husband who may betray you, has no responsibility, and will abandon you when problems arise, then go ahead and date Jack. I won't interfere anymore."
Molly responded, "No!"
Looking at Chad, she said, "I'd rather stay single for life than end up in such a family."
The car drove away. Molly said, "If only you weren't my brother, then I wouldn't be troubled."
Chad said, "Call me Chad from now on. That way, you'll realize that I'm not your brother."
Molly firmly stated, "No, you're my brother."
Molly misunderstood. Chad didn't really want her to call him brother. She thought that Chad was angry because she still insisted that he was her brother.
She figured Chad was already pissed, so she should quickly soothe him.
So she called him "bro" several times in the car, which only irritated Chad more.
The car gradually drove away, and Molly successfully avoided another scolding.
When they got home, their parents were already asleep.
They tried to be as quiet as possible when they got home. Chad told her, "Bob's son is sick. Accompany me to the hospital tomorrow."
"Oh, did you cover Bob's shift today?"
