Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Reyes couldn’t do anything about Toya.
But she was supposed to be like this.
He compromised. “Since you’re in such a difficult position, forget it.”
Toya wanted to say that she was not troubled at all, but she simply did not want to recommend him.
But she remembered that she had just told him that she wanted to get along well with him, so she held back.
“Then stop following me.”
Reyes glared at her.
He pursed his lips straight and didn’t respond.
She looked like she was difficult to talk to.
He was very tall and looked very oppressive when he was expressionless.
He was so imposing that he didn’t seem like a teenager.
It was just that once he became tough, Toya wanted to stay away from him because she felt that he was very dangerous.
She and Reyes really weren’t like mother and son. Although they were equally arrogant, Toya was arrogant because she was spoiled. She enjoyed the way everyone obeyed her. She despised things that made her feel superior, but that didn’t stop her from having those things.
Reyes’s arrogance was tinged with desperation.
He didn’t care about anything and looked down on everything, regardless of whether he had it or not.
“Toya!”
Someone called Toya’s name and broke the awkward atmosphere between them.
Reyes looked over. It was a man about seventeen.
He was quite tall, only half a head shorter than Reyes.
He was not bad looking. He was considered a handsome man.
He was wearing a white shirt, probably because he was young and hadn’t grown up yet. He looked obedient, like the kind of person Toya would like.
The man looked excited when he saw Tonya and took two anxious steps towards her.
He was like a crazy fan who had seen his idol.
Toya’s face turned pale when she saw him.
She instinctively ducked behind Reyes.
Reyes felt Tonya flinch. His expression turned cold as he pushed the young man, who reached out to touch the girl.
“Who is he?” As if sensing Toya’s fear, Reyes’s voice was not very loud, and there was something reassuring in his tone.
Toya gritted her teeth and said the name that she absolutely despised. “Carter Madison.”
It was someone from the Madison family.
Reyes quickly recalled the information he had read yesterday and filtered the content about Carter.
Carter Madison was the son of Toya’s eldest brother, who had died in the same year as her mother. He was her nephew by blood.
He was siblings with Anna, who had “fought” with her yesterday. He was 18 years old and was still in high school.
Carter and Anna had moved out of Madison’s family villa with their mother after their father died. It wasn’t until almost a year later that they were picked up by Toya’s brothers.
Toya’s relationship with Anna was very tense. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have returned home injured yesterday.
When asked by him, she even said frankly that she was injured because of a fight with Anna.
Reyes had long guessed that Toya’s mother’s death might be related to her dead brother, so he was not surprised that her relationship with Anna was so bad that they fought.
But the man in front of them, as Anna’s biological brother, should hate Toya as much as Anna did.
However, he couldn’t use the word “hate” to describe his behavior upon seeing Toya.
The excitement and zeal made Reyes feel a strong discomfort.
And he detested the way he looked at Toya with passion in his eyes as he looked her up and down.
Reyes’ expression was cold. He took a step forward to block his offensive view.
As if he didn’t see the man in front of him, Carter said to Toya excitedly, “Toya! It’s me! I’m Carter! My sister told me that you were engaged to someone else. I didn’t believe her, so I came to you. My sister was lying to me. You didn’t marry anyone, right?”
He leaned forward again. Reyes grabbed his arm and restrained him.
Reyes thought there was something wrong with this man.
Toya, not even looking at Carter, ducked even more.
Carter didn’t get a response and looked dejected. “You’re avoiding me again. Am I so detestable to you?”
Reyes immediately knew that he was pretending to be pitiful. In the two days he had been with Toya, he had gradually become aware that this woman was amenable to coaxing but not coercion. The more he pretended to be pitiful, the better her attitude would be. The more he went along with her and made her comfortable, the nicer she would act.
He had never understood why even though her attitude had clearly improved, she was still cold-hearted.
When he saw Carter, he seemed to understand something.

Despite hearing Carter’s pained tone, Toya’s expression did not improve at all. She even felt a little nauseous.
She suppressed her disgust and ordered coldly, “Stay away from me!”
Hearing her merciless voice, Carter’s expression changed, and his obedient and pitiful expression became gloomy.
“I didn’t even attend class today and specially came to look for you. You actually want me to stay away from you? I haven’t seen you in a long time. I miss you so much that I went crazy. Don’t you miss me at all?”
“Sister said that you are going to marry someone else and have already moved into the other party’s home. I didn’t believe it before, but now, it seems like what Sister said is true..”
