RankNovelChapter 1345 Chapter 1345: Kenji and his father had often argued, with Iker always stepping in to intervene. Iker held an important role in their family, earning Kenji's respect as a mature and reliable elder brother while being regarded by their father as the dependable eldest son. He fulfilled each of these roles perfectly.
Despite feeling unfair, Kenji held no resentment toward his brother. So, when Iker took a seat next to him, Kenji greeted him stiffly, "Iker, when did you return to the country?" The brothers looked incredibly alike, almost as if they were reflections of one another. Recently, Kenji had cinto his own, carrying himself with a newfound handsand authoritative air, whereas Iker, seasoned by more varied experiences, shared a look similar to Ellis' but with a more rugged appeal.

"It's late. Have you eaten anything yet?" Kenji answered, "I don't have much of an appetite." Iker got straight to the point.
"Why not chand have dinner with me?" Thinking of Ellis, Kenji felt a pang of fear after his impulsive words a few days ago. Ellis would surely give him a sound beating for uttering those words.
"No," Kenji refused.
Iker, much like Jaida, preferred negotiating over confrontation. He brought up the topic of the arranged marriage. "Mom showeda photo of that girl. She's quite attractive. What's not to like about her?" Kenji replied, "Iker, do you care for and marry Cathleen Perry just because she's attractive?" "Yes." Kenji's mouth twitched.
"Is that the only reason?" Iker laughed, realizing the point his brother was making, and replied sincerely, "Cathleen and I have known each other since childhood. My affection for her is deep, second only to my family. It's not the sas your situation with Scarlette from the Ward family." Kenji responded, "You've never really gotten to know Scarlette. Once you do, you might change your mind." Iker frowned.

"Anyway, if I end up marrying her my happy days are over" Iker chose not to argue and shifted the topic.
"You've been holed up in the lab for days. Are you aware of the major news happening outside?"
Kenji asked, "What's going on? Did something happen to our dad? bid he because he fall ith he was so upset?”
