Chapter 687

“Emilio, what were you two talking about?” Ophelia asked, approaching.

“Nothing,” Emilio said, stepping away from Kian with a smile. “Let’s go. I’ll drive you back. We got so many gifts—Auntie will love them.”

Kian watched them leave, his chest tight with the urge to follow. But he held back. Until he fixed his family mess, he wouldn’t drag Ophelia into it.

“You saw that, right?” Teresa said, seizing the moment. “Your mom and I warned you about her, but you didn’t listen. Now they’re flaunting it right in front of us.” She tentatively touched Kian’s arm.

He sidestepped. “Get in the car. I’m taking you to the hospital.”

“Fine,” Teresa said, relenting. “Auntie and Emilia are waiting. We shouldn’t be late.” She climbed into the passenger seat.
