Chapter 92

I gently patted Stella’s head, “Cut the crap, Stella. I’ve told you before that I’m not into your brother.”

Stella rubbed her head, arguing back in a huff. “How can you be so sure you don’t like him? Trust me, my brother is a catch. If you guys get together and he dares treat you badly or looks at another girl, I swear I’ll beat him up myself!”

“Don’t drink too much,” I warned helplessly.

“I know!” Stella grabbed her bag and left.
