Regret Came Too Late

Julian gazed at the broken wine bottle on the floor in Velvet Eclipse's private room, shaking his head. "What a waste. This was good wine."

Ethan leaned back in his chair with his eyes half-closed. No one knew what he was thinking.

Julian poured himself another drink and then filled Damien's glass. Damien had remained silent the entire time.

He couldn't help but clink his glass against his.

"Damien, what's with the long face? You're out for dinner, not a funeral."

Damien gripped his glass tightly, his expression darkening with anger.

He was the youngest among them, and although he was ruthless, he hadn't yet honed his skills enough to face off against these guys.

Julian let out a soft sneer and leaned back in a carefree posture. His shirt was casually opened to reveal a broad chest with firm muscle.

Damien finished his drink, then replied, "My sister's been too quiet lately."

Julian suddenly laughed. "What, you're worried she's plotting something big? Isn't that a little paranoid? She's already left the Jensen family business. What more do you want?

"If you really don't want her to get a share of the inheritance, just send her abroad or make her disappear quietly. Your parents only adopted her back then because they thought they wouldn't have kids of their own."

Damien lowered his head, his fingers tightening around his glass. "I never wanted to force her out of the Jensen family business. She left on her own."

Julian leaned a bit closer, waving his hand in front of him.

"Are you okay? You made a huge scene back then, and everyone knew you hated her. Selene's always been someone who knows when to step back. She knew you couldn't stand her, so she left on her own. Honestly, she's got some guts."

As soon as Julian finished speaking, he felt the intensity of Damien's gaze. "What do you mean by that, Julian?"

Julian casually raised a hand, a playful smile curling at the corners of his lips. "What do I mean? Well, my family's been pushing me to settle down, so what do you think about me being your brother-in-law?"

Before he could finish, Damien slammed his glass onto the coffee table, shattering it into several pieces.
