"You're not Sean. Let go of me," Tatiana stammered, her face reddening with embarrassment as she attempted to free herself from Simon's grasp. However, she could barely exert any energy with how weak she was.

"Oh? Only Sean can hold you, then? Do you fancy him?" Simon teased, gazing at her flushed, delicate face. The urge to mess with her grew the more she struggled in her arms.

Tatiana really took after her mother, Lyla.

Like any other man, Simon's instincts beckoned for something carnal in response.

"N-No!" Tatiana cried, and her face grew even redder.

"Please don't mind if I take you back to your room."

Simon's hold on her waist did not lessen in the slightest.

"No, thank you. I can go myself."

"Aw, don't push yourself."

Simon leaned in so close that they were inches away from kissing, but Tatiana's hands on his chest pushed him back.

He continued, "We've known each other since we were young. You can just call me Simon."

"Ms. Tatiana!"

An abrupt cry jerked Tatiana awake.

If it weren't for Sean's arrival, Simon might have actually kissed her!

Simon cursed inwardly at Sean. He then quickly put on a serious face and turned to his brother.

"Ms. Tatiana, what are you doing with my brother?" Sean asked, eyes burning with worry.

He saw how close the two were holding one another earlier. It even looked like Simon was about to kiss her, and Tatiana did not fight back at all. The thought made something clench in Sean's chest and throat. Tatiana wiped her misty eyes, heart pounding in her chest.

"Please answer me, Ms. Tatiana!" Sean implored worriedly.

Simon quickly stood in front of Tatiana, saying sternly, "Ms. Tatiana has had too much to drink. I was only helping her steady herself when she nearly fell down earlier. Nothing wrong with that, surely." "Are you sure that's all you were doing?" Sean gritted out. He knew the gaze in his brother's eyes earlier. It was not at all pure of heart.

"What are you saying, Sean? Do you take me for some defiler?"

Simon scowled, as if he was the victim here. Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ Find ɴøᴠel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Simon pressed on, "I'm a lawyer. I know the law. Plus, this is Ms. Tatiana's home. All her family members are here. What could I have possibly done? Unlike you, who's now Mr. Taylor's 'godson.' "His most beloved daughter also favors you. Of course you can do whatever you please. Surely, I can take care of Ms. Tatiana while you slave away to Ms. Alyssa, alright?"

Simon then turned around to look at Tatiana.

All that was on Sean's mind right now was how much he wanted to punch Simon. He couldn't even bring himself to call him his brother. "S-Simon..." Tatiana said sheepishly, not wanting the two to fight. "I'm okay now. I'm sober. Let's go back out to the living room."

"Alright, I'll escort you."

When the two were about to leave, Sean went up to grab Tatiana by the wrist.

"Ouch!" She winced at his tight grip.

"Come with me," Sean insisted. He then wrapped an arm around her shoulder, forcing her to come along.

Tatiana was still feeling upset. This was her home, yet here she was, sullen and quiet as she followed Sean to who-knows-where.

She didn't want to, yet she couldn't stop her feelings from blossoming.

What could she do?

She adored Sean so much.

Simon silently watched the two leave, never making another move.
