Chapter 1448

At this moment, Hesper had gotten a little too close to Rickard, so close that their breaths were almost brushing against each other. Rickard took half a step back while Kenji had learned to excuse himself from the room, leaving Hesper even more unscrupulous. "Brother, you looked so solemn when we were outside. So, why are you suddenly so speechless now that you're with your biological sister?" Hesper genuinely wanted to tease Rickard, but Rickard’s gaze became dimmer and dimmer. She started to feel the danger and took half a step back. However, she stopped when Rickard wrapped his arm around her waist, leaving her with no choice but to shift her eyes away nervously. "We still have plenty of businesses to attend to!" "I’m glad you still have your priorities straight. Stop challenging me." Upon hearing Rickard’s lowered voice, tinged with a hint of threat, Hesper knew he was only trying to scare her. However, she could not help but feel a little afraid of him when he was acting so.
