Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia) novel Chapter 1422

They exchanged glances as the room fell silent. Harry was the one to break it, "Waverly, you're different! Something happened. Are people talking nonsense about you again?"

The only thing Harry could think about was those rumors about her. Even mentioning it made him furious, "Or did someone bully you?"

His younger sister was the treasure he and his father held dear in their hands. They were dubious about her marriage with that Franklin Wright guy, but even though they've tried to prevent it, they had caused her nothing but misery and pain!

His mood was unstable, but Harry didn't dare show it. However, he knew that they were family. They had known each other for about two decades now. She knew him well. With the snacks stuffed in her mouth, Waverly moved close to him. She didn't touch him with her hands, but she rested her head on his body as she shook it softly.

"Harry, do you think I'm having a bad time?"

She smiled cheekily at him. Waverly felt warm in her heart.

"I'm just on a business trip! You guys were nearby, so I thought I'd stay here for a couple of days. It's the weekends, isn't it? I'm gonna go back on Monday! What? You don't want to feed me, do you? And you said you were going to take care of me for life!"

Harry rolled his eyes and poked her forehead.

"You little brat..."

She was acting like a spoiled child. Harry couldn't hide the joy in his eyes as he continued, "Dad's worried about you."

The two of them were men, so there were some things they just couldn't discuss in detail with her. It doesn't matter how kind her stepmother was. At the end of the day, they weren't related by blood. The two men were still very worried. It was a miracle that they were able to maintain such a friendly and peaceful facade!

"Waverly, if something happened, don't carry the burden yourself!"

After a whole day's worth of thinking, Harry finally squeezed that one sentence out. He didn't know how to talk to her about the other things! Before he could continue, Waverly interrupted him.

"I know! I'm the daughter of the Castle family and the younger sister of Harry Castle of Yecaeus City. I'll certainly marry into a good family, and even if I don't, my brother will feed me for life! Yeah, it wouldn't be a problem to raise a dozen little children!"

That was what her father and brother kept telling her. Except for the last sentence, though. She added that herself!

Harry was stunned to see her change. When Harry said those to her before, she would only smile. And even though she tried to hide it, Harry could always see through her fake smile and see through her pains and sorrow. But now-

Did she actually just crack a joke?

Although she did that just to comfort and reassure him, she was obviously different!

Harry poked her forehead like she was still a child. However, his eyes were soft.

"Don't talk nonsense. You're a girl, be serious, else what would people think of you? "

Since she was fine, he heaved a sigh of relief!

Harry pushed her a little before standing up, "Alright, it's getting late. Get a good night's sleep after you finish these! Call me if you need anything! And remember to lock your door!"

"Roger that-"

Waverly waved as she gave him a clumsy smile, "Good night, Harry!"

"Good night."

Harry disappeared behind the closed door as soon as he bid her good night.
