Chapter 823 "Gran, please, try to stay calm." Christine stepped forward, gently patting Helena's chest. "Your condition can't handle stress. Let us handle our issues on our own, okay? For now, let's just have dinner." Helena couldn't possibly think of eating, glaring at Merritt with a mix of disappointment and frustration. "Are you trying to givea heart attack or what?" Merritt got down on one knee in front of Helena, pleading, "Gran, I didn't mean to upset you. Can we just sort this out during the wedding preparations, please?" This gesture made Christine feel a bit awkward.

After all, it was her who had spilled the beans to Helena.

If anything happened to Helena because of this, Christine knew she'd be at fault.

"Gran, let's not dwell on this now. I'll bring your dinner to your room, and you can eat in peace, okay?" Helena sighed heavily, shooting Merritt a stern look before letting Christine help her into the other room. After setting up the dinner for Helena, Christine returned to find Merritt still on his knees.

"You're not kneeling tonow, are you?" "Con, get up. I can't deal with this. Grab swine, and let's talk over a drink." Merritt fetched the wine.

In Mistwood, nightfall clate, and while Vista Town was already enveloped in darkness, here, the sunset still painted the sky beautifully.

Sitting in the courtyard, sipping wine, and watching the sunset, they found a moment of serene beauty amidst their troubles.

"Merritt, I've felt your kindness towards me. Growing up, kindness was rare, until I met Jane." "Besides her, you're the only one who's been purely good to me." Merritt took a sip of wine, finding words easier to cby.

"Isn't Dailey good to you?" he asked.

Christine pondered for a moment, "He is, but it's different. That's love." "When you're in love, you always show the best side of yourself." "But you're different." Merritt was puzzled, "But I like you too. Even though we've never been together, it can't just be friendship between us." "You're special." Christine rested her chin in her hands, looking at him, "If it were anyone else, plotting againstwith my rival, I wouldn't speak another word to them, much dess chere." en "Merritt, to be honest, if it wasn't for Dailey, I would've considered you. Who wouldn't want someone who cares for them for the rest of their life?" "But love doesn't make sense. Who we like isn't something we can control. I'm sorry." Merritt's hand trembled, spilling much of the wine.

Christine remarked, "What a waste." After a moment, Merritt took a big gulp straight from the bottle, his feelings a complex mix, "Why are you apologizing? I should be the one apologizing." "You don't have to apologize to me." Christine said, "You know what I want to know." After another gulp, Merritt met Christine's gaze earnestly, "Sis, be honest with me, do you think you and Dailey will make up?"

Christine checked the temperature of the roasted sweet potatoes, deeming om" them ready to eat, and broke one in half offering Merritt a piece. Taking a bite, Merritt listened as Christine finally spoke. "Merritt, I won't lie to you, but I honestly don't know." "I really don't." |

"Dailey and I cfrom completely different worlds. At first, I thought we should just enjoy the moment, start dating because we liked each other and if marriage wasn't cards, then so be it, we'd partways." QUMS "That was my mindset when my ex wanted an arranged marriage." the

"I've always thought I was heartless, able to navigate through a sea ofn temptations without without getting attached, living just for the thrill of the moment."
