The two of them were just chatting initially, but for some reason, their conversation turned into an argument.
At first, | didn't want to get involved. However, upon hearing how loud they were becoming, | couldn't help but exit the bedroom totake a look.
Nerissa shouted at the top of her voice, "She'll destroy you. The women from the rich and powerful families in Jarold City are alloutstanding, why must you choose her? You and Irvin have been in conflict with each other for years when both of you could'veadvanced together and become partners, striving towards the top. Why must you fight with each other over one woman?"
"| love her!" Hendrix yelled back. His back was facing me, so | couldn't read his emotions and facial expression.

"It's not that she can't be without me, but rather it is | who can't be without her. Even if she really becomes a senseless lunatic, I'llstill protect her. As long as she stays by my side, no matter what she becomes, I'll care for her."

Hendrix did not mind. "We won't have any more children. Anne is registered under my name; she's justifiably my daughter."
"But she's not your biological child!" "What's the difference?" Hendrix pursed his lips. "| can't have children anymore, havingAnne is enough."

Hendrix didn't say anything because when he got up, he had caught sight of me standing at the staircase.
His initially grim face gradually brightened. Our eyes met and his lips curled upward with a sense of warmth. He gestured to meand said gently, "Come down!"
