No one spoke in the car. Charlize held the roses and stared out the window, deep in thought.

Glancing at her, Charles felt upset. He felt a compelling desire to go back and fight Spencer.

Charles was nearly a decade older than Charlize and was already studying in elementary school by the time the latter was born. He knew he was getting a sibling before she was even born, but he didn't want a little brother, for Justin's naughty and annoying little brother left a bad impression on him.

Hence, Charles prayed every day before Charlize was born, hoping his younger sibling would be a girl.

Then, when he returned home from school one day, his father told him his mother had given birth to a girl.


Overjoyed, he leaped into the air in excitement and was so happy that he didn't even feel the pain when he fell. He still remembered how he gazed at his tiny baby sister through a glass window after arriving at the hospital with his father. Charlize was sleeping soundly in the crib, her skin soft and fair, completely unlike how Justin's noisy little brother acted when he was born.

Charles was the only one who had a little sister within his group of friends. The first thing Charles did every day upon reaching home after school was to talk to his baby sister.

He loved bringing Charlize to Justin's place for play dates on weekends after Charlize was old enough to walk and run.

At that point in time, Justin's little brother was at an annoying age while Charlize had always been obedient and adorable since birth. Hence, Justin was incredibly jealous of Charles for having a lovable baby sister.

Charlize, too, loved following Charles around since childhood. In fact, Charles was so worried about Charlize during her first day of kindergarten that he took a day off to wait at the entrance of the kindergarten, watching over his baby sister. His parents claimed that he doted on Charlize too much, causing her to get used to relying on him from childhood to adulthood.

Charles didn't mind Charlize depending on him since she was his little sister. In his opinion, it was okay for girls to show weakness and be vulnerable. Moreover, he was fiercely protective of her and vowed to not let anyone harm her.

More than twenty years passed in the blink of an eye. Charlize slowly became independent after attending university and stopped relying on her big brother once she started working. She no longer needed his help as much as she did in the past, which actually caused Charles to feel rather upset and dispirited.
