Faye Townsend bit her lip and looked at him: "Don’t exaggerate."
"Exaggerate? It’s truly heartbreaking. How can my concern for you be an exaggeration?
This is all a deep affection coming from the bottom of my heart."
"Big brother." Faye Townsend interrupted him: "Don’t you think that as an elder brother, it’s really impolite to say such things to your brother’s wife?"
"Elder brother..." Lucas Warren’s complexion changed instantly, if there was a trace of humanity in his face before, the coldness that took over afterward made her heart inexplicably tense up.
It’s a face of ice-cold indifference without a trace of emotion.
"Haven’t I said it before? Never call me that again."
Faye Townsend swallowed and forced herself to remain calm: "You are my husband’s brother, if I don’t call you big brother, then what should I call you? My upbringing doesn’t allow me to be impolite to an elder brother."
"Impolite? When were you polite when you seduced me?
Faye Townsend, how come you didn’t mention your upbringing when you were playing me for a fool, using me?
I’ve already warned you, everything that I lost because of you, I will reclaim it all with interest, sooner or later.
Over these years, my dear brother swallowed up my company, took over my property, and slept with the woman I love. Does he really delude himself into thinking that he can trample me underfoot until the end?
If the old Hunter Warren had no weaknesses for me to exploit, now it’s different.
I’ve found his weakness.
You were right when you said it as a young girl.
Once a person has something they care about, the nature of many things changes.
It’s because of weaknesses that a person has humanity, and also because of weaknesses that one becomes vulnerable.
Guess what my dear brother’s weakness is?"
Faye Townsend gritted her teeth and looked at him, unable to follow his words.
Lucas Warren raised his eyebrows, a hint of smugness appearing on his formerly grim face: "His weakness is you.
I never imagined that you, whom he always rejected, would one day become his weakness.
Faye Townsend, I could destroy everything because of you, and Hunter Warren would do the same."
"Don’t talk nonsense, I’m not his weakness at all.
I will only become the best support by his side.
Lucas Warren, don’t dream of destroying the happiness I now possess.
I’ve long since stopped being who I used to be, and I won’t let go of the happiness I have now.
And you, you will definitely not be his match."
"Are you too confident in him, or do you underestimate me?
Do you think I’ve been doing nothing these years?
Faye Townsend, the Warren family has always been ruthless.
Hunter is like that, and I am no exception.
I understand my dear brother. Once he has a weakness, he won’t remain the invincible god he once was."
Just wait and see, watch how I will defeat him, how I will drag you back to my side.
I’ve said it long ago, you are destined to be mine, it’s just a matter of time."
To see how terrible Lucas Warren’s face is right now, one only needs to look at Faye Townsend’s eyes.
Faye Townsend never thought that she would have to face Lucas Warren again in this lifetime.
She thought that after he was banished by Hunter Warren, he wouldn’t dare to come back.
But unexpectedly, things are always so contrary to one’s wishes.
Sebastian Sheldon returned, and so did he.
She knows why Lucas Warren is so brazen now.
He is simply certain that both Hunter Warren and she dread his existence.
How much of what he is saying now is true or false, she does not know.
This man has always been very good at bluffing. Perhaps now he really has become very strong, or maybe he’s just trying to scare her.
But no matter what, she has to stay calm.
If she shows disarray here, then she really plays right into his hands, fulfilling his wishes.
Faye Townsend fears neither heaven nor earth; there’s no reason for her to start fearing Lucas Warren at this moment.
He’s human, and so is she; nobody should consider themselves a god with the power to rule over others.
With these thoughts in mind, Faye Townsend suddenly smiled, her beauty shining through her smile. Lucas Warren, caught off guard by the sight, wondered how many years it had been since he saw such a sweet smile on her face?
She leisurely placed the rose on the table beside her: "Thank you for the flowers, big brother, but it’s such a pity, I’m not particularly fond of roses."
"You can start liking them from now on."
"That’s why you’re not good enough, pushing what you like onto others is not affection, it’s control.
