"Serena, can you help your second brother with a little favor..."
Steven Everett escorted the girl to the door, his ruggedly handso face rarely showing a hint of pleading, but before he could finish speaking, Serena coldly refused.
"No."
She didn’t need to guess to know her second brother definitely wanted her help to dodge tonight’s blind date.
"Serena..."
Steven called her helplessly, his tone quite pathetic.
"Help your second brother!"
"Mom has already given a strict order for you to roll back tonight," Serena said innocently. "I can’t do anything about it."
Speak of the devil, just as Serena finished speaking, Jocelyn’s call ca through.
Steven raised his hand to rub his brow, feeling even more troubled, but he still answered the call.
"Serena has told you about the guests at ho tonight, right? You must co back tonight!"
As soon as the call connected, Jocelyn’s loud voice rang out.
"Don’t think you can do what you did before by not answering calls, ignoring ssages, and hiding out at the base!"
Steven grew increasingly helpless, "Mom, I really have sothing going on tonight, so I won’t be coming back..."
"Hmph!"
He hadn’t finished speaking when Jocelyn interrupted him.
"Every ti I introduce girls for you to et, you use this excuse! I just don’t get it, why is it so hard for you to find a girlfriend?!"
Steven sighed helplessly, remaining silent.
On the other end, Jocelyn seed to suddenly think of sothing and blurted out, "Steven, could it be that you actually like n?"
She had overheard so rumors outside, initially not paying much attention, but the more she thought about it, the more she felt there could be so truth to them.
Steven, at his age, had never dated, always courteous and polite to girls but nothing beyond that, with no female presence around him.
And now, he’s surrounded entirely by n...
"n... n are fine too!"
Jocelyn seed like she had finally made up her mind, her voice a little shaky, clearly having gone through quite a psychological journey.
"Your dad and I are not old-fashioned... Well, actually, we’re quite open-minded... we’ll do our best to accept it!"
Bianca Everett: "..."
Jocelyn continued, "But for now, let’s keep this from your dad for a bit, he’s getting older, and his heart isn’t great... Once I’ve convinced him, you can bring your boyfriend ho for us to et!"
Steven’s temples throbbed with restraint, his handso face turning steely, "Mom, who has been spreading these rumors about ?"
"Ahem..."
Hearing the murderous tone in Steven’s voice, Jocelyn quickly coughed lightly and imdiately changed the subject.
"It’s just a little guess! All right, all right, I have sothing to say to Serena, hand the phone to her!"
Steven was about to clench his teeth but complied, handing the phone to Serena.
"Your second brother says he doesn’t like guys, but after all these years, there’s not been a girl around him..." Jocelyn whispered to Serena, "Serena, do you think there’s sothing physically wrong with him?"
As she spoke, Jocelyn’s tone instantly beca worried, "Serena, see if there’s any dicine that can help treat your second brother’s condition?"
Steven: "..."
Could they not discuss him so conspiratorially in his presence?!
Seeing Steven’s disheartened expression, Serena couldn’t help but curve her lips into a smile.
"Mom, the call hasn’t ended, I can hear everything!"
Steven gritted his teeth and spoke slowly, "Also, my health is perfectly fine."
Listening to her son’s teeth-gnashing tone, Jocelyn sheepishly laughed and quickly hung up the phone.
Steven rubbed his brow even harder, feeling more headache.
Being suspected of having a questionable sexual orientation and health issues by his own mom... truly left him speechless, as if speechlessness had opened the door to speechlessness and reached ho!
But soon, Steven collected his emotions, his gentle gaze falling on the young girl in front of him.
"Serena, where do you want to go? Second brother will take you."
Serena hadn’t yet spoken when a rough voice sounded behind her.
"Captain..."
A group of burly n strode over, and upon seeing Serena beside Steven, unconsciously beca more refined, afraid to scare her.
"What a coincidence, sister is here too!"
Hearing this, Steven imdiately grew displeased and interrupted them, "She’s solely my sister!"
"..."
Seeing Steven’s appearance, everyone was speechless but too lazy to argue with a brother-loving guy.
"Why are you guys here?"
ntioning this, their emotions grew excited.
"Old Black completed his undercover mission and returned today; the brothers have planned a gathering to celebrate!"
As everyone knows, undercover missions are life-threatening and extrely dangerous, returning safely is no easy feat.
Steven’s face instantly blossod into a smile, clearly very happy inside.
"So, we ca to find you, Captain, to invite you to welco Old Black!"
Speaking, they naturally reached out to put their hands on Steven’s shoulder.
"Don’t touch !"
But before their hands reached Steven’s shoulder, he imdiately stepped back, avoiding their touch.
"???"
Their faces were blank with confusion, looking at him with bewildernt.
"Captain, what’s wrong with you today?"
They were used to their usual playful banter, but why was the Captain acting so genteel today, like a little girl, so untouchable?
Steven didn’t care about their thoughts, seriously emphasizing, "From now on, each of you stay away from , keep your distance, don’t touch !"
He didn’t want those absurd rumors spreading again, making his family think he liked n!
"Fine, fine!"
Everyone rolled their eyes impatiently, silently grumbling in their hearts.
What got into Captain’s head? Did he really think he was a delicate girl? Not letting them touch him, as if they wanted to touch him anyway!
"Let’s go, Captain, Old Black’s flight is about to land, if we don’t hurry to the airport, we’ll be late!"
"This..."
Steven hesitated for a mont, then still told them, "You guys go ahead, I’ll be there in a while!"
Seeing his difficulty, Serena spoke up unhurriedly, "No worries, Damian Quinn is coming to pick up, second brother, go with them."
After hearing this, Steven was at ease, gently rubbing the girl’s head, "Alright, second brother will head out first, I’ll bring you sothing tasty when I return!"
Serena obediently nodded, "Mm."
Watching this scene, that group of burly n were green with envy.
Damn, Captain really had good fortune! Such a pretty and obedient sister, they wanted such a sister too!
If only they could steal Serena away to be their sister!!!
