Chapter 1199

Seeing this, a hint of amusement flickered in Darcel’s eyes, while a subtle smile emerged across his face.

It’s so fun to always tease this little goofball.

Without lingering any longer, he turned around to leave.

However, before he took a step, his fading smile failed to hide the delight glistening in his eyes.

Before he knew it, Shane had appeared two steps behind him. The latter was looking at him with an enigmatic smile and a probing gaze.

“Mr. Belma, you really do go out of your way to take care of my sister. Did Mr. Caleb instruct you to do so?”

Shane’s tone was casual as if he was making small talk, yet there was a subtle interrogative tone in it.

Darcel concealed the emotions in his eyes, reverting to his usual stern expression. He then responded with a nonchalant hum.

“So that’s how it is, Mr. Belma. You’re really thoughtful.”

Shane seemed to believe it, nodding thoughtfully.

After that, he suddenly changed his tune.

“It seems I’ve misunderstood. I was under the impression that you have taken a special interest in my younger sister, which explains why you’re so attentive and caring toward her. Even I, her brother, pale in comparison to you.”

As if he were oblivious to Shane’s attempt at probing, Darcel calmly replied, “Mr. Medicina has a good heart, Mr. Gordon. There’s no need to worry.”

After speaking, he nodded in acknowledgment, then walked away.
