Ida paid him no mind, sidestepping past him to fill the kids’ cartoon water bottles from the kitchen tap.
Byran followed. He was feeling disgruntled. “What gives, Ida? Why are you suddenly denying our
relationship?”
Ida was a bit irritated. She adjusted her gold-rimmed glasses. “Keep your voice down; don’t create a
scene.”
Byran was fuming now. “How am I creating a scene, Ida? Can’t you take me seriously for once?”
Chase, overhearing the brewing argument, wisely grabbed the freshly washed fruits and took Belinda
out to the patio to slice them, leaving the kitchen to the quarreling pair.
Ida quickly glanced at Chase and Belinda leaving, then turned her displeased gaze back to Byran.
“When will you ever get over your hotheadedness?”
Byran was livid. “I can control my temper when it comes to anything but you. Why won’t you
acknowledge our relationship?”
Ida, usually calm, was also getting annoyed by his pestering. “Why acknowledge a relationship with no
future? Since we get along, let’s enjoy the moment. Stop emphasizing these empty relationships!”
Byran stared at her. “What do you mean, ‘no future? Why do you think we have no future together?
You’ve never taken me seriously, have you?”
Ida put down the cartoon water bottle and turned to face him. “What future do you think we have? Don’t
tell me that you think we’ll get married?
Think about it. Among your entire family, who would accept you bringing home a woman six years your
senior with a complicated romantic past? Be realistic, will you?”
Byran looked at her with his pupils trembling. “If my family accepted you, would you marry me?”
Ida paused, then turned away. She didn’t want to look at him and continued filling the children’s water
bottles.
With no answer, Byran exhaled. He was seemingly disappointed and angry, so he left the kitchen.
Ida paused her actions momentarily but continued filling the water bottles.
What she didn’t expect was that Byran would run straight to his intimidating older brother.
“Brother! Can I get married before you?”
His question made Balfour, who was playing with the kids on the couch, raise his gaze. He frowned. “To
whom are you planning to get married?”
Ellinor, who was sipping her coffee, also turned her surprised gaze towards Byran.
“I want to marry Ida. You know her. She’s in the kitchen, filling water.”
Balfour’s frown deepened, and he went silent for a while. His gaze on Byran was not friendly.
Ellinor pursed her lips around her coffee, watching Balfour’s reaction, seemingly waiting for his
response.
After a while, Balfour finally spoke in a low voice. “There are several girls your age that our family has
chosen for you. They are all good girls. If you want to get married, make some time to meet them.”
Byran was immediately unhappy. “I won’t go on blind dates! Brother, you yourself are reluctant to meet
the girls chosen by our family. Why should I? I just told you that the one I want to marry is Ida, no one
else! If you’re bothered by me, your younger brother, getting married before you, then Ida and I can get
engaged first, and we can get married after your wedding. How about that?”
Balfour narrowed his eyes. “Are you asking for my opinion or informing me of your decision?”
Byran felt a chill run down his spine under his brother’s gaze. “I… I’m both asking for your opinion and
telling you my decision.”
