Wendy knew that her brother would definitely talk about this matter. She lowered her head, focused on eating, and pretended not to hear him.
"Wendy." Joseph knew that his sister was playing dumb with him again, and immediately called her name.
"Don't be so fierce." Alvina immediately helped his speak up.
It was only then that Joseph thought of Alvina, and he clenched his teeth in anger: "Does she know what the consequences would be if he did this? What if she was bullied at school? "
Alvina looked at Joseph, and looked at Wendy, and finally, she said: "If you're worried about Wendy, then just arrange people to protect her from the shadows? Wendy is an adult now, she must have her own thoughts. "
"Right, Bro, I've grown up. It's time for me to make my own decision." Wendy immediately agreed in a low voice, secretly grateful to Alvina standing by her side.
Joseph narrowed his eyes and stared closely at his little sister: "Tell me, why you decide to go to that school?"
Wendy was so scared that her face turned pale, she raised her bowl and was about to leave the table.
"Fall in love with someone?" Joseph's words scared her so much that she couldn't even hold onto her forks properly.
Wendy's beautiful face flushed a little as she glared at her brother. "You're only allowed to be in love with Alvina and not have me have a crush on someone?"
"As expected, that's the reason." Joseph's guess was accurate, but he was angry.
Wendy immediately returned to her seat and continued to eat. But this time, she started counting the rice grains as she grumbled unhappily: "Joseph, this isn't my first love, it's a unrequited love. I was alraedy in misery, can you stop blaming me?"
Alvina saw that Wendy was so sad that she was about to cry, so she quickly pulled on Joseph's sleeves, indicating him to speak properly.
Although Joseph still wanted to curse a little at his sister for being disobedient, he forgot what to say after hearing Alvina's persuasion.
"Who is he?" Joseph could only soften his tone, but he was still furious.
"I don't want to say it!" Wendy immediately sat up, with a resolute expression on her face that said nothing.
Joseph clenched his teeth and a smile showed on his face: "Do you think I won't know if you don't tell me?"
"Bro, you can't investigate me. I'm your sister, so you have to respect my privacy." Wendy immediately reminded her brother with a serious expression.
"Ah, you even know about privacy? Do you know what danger is? " Joseph was immediately angered to the point of laughing by his sister.
Alvina, who was listening at the side, also secretly wanted to laugh. Somehow, she felt that the two siblings were talking to each other with joy.
"Oh right, brother, one of your best friends, Duke, has also come to the school as a teacher. Wendy pretended not to know Duke.
Joseph's handsome face froze for a moment. Only now did he remember that his good friend Duke had taken the initiative to request to be a teacher at that school. With his strict character, he should be able to properly manage the school's atmosphere.
"He has no obligation to protect you. He has his own job." Joseph glared at his sister snappily.
"Why wouldn't I be obligated? He is your best friends and I am your sister. Besides, we've known each other since we were young. For the sake of our friendship, he should protect me." Wendy guiltily avoided her big brother's gaze, and said softly.
"You can't trouble him. Since you want to stay in that school, I'll send someone else to protect you. You have to be careful. If you suffer any grievances, you have to tell me, understand?" Joseph looked at his sister who did not let him have any worries. He could only sigh and let her make her own decision.
"Fine, but, you should not make it obvious for arraging people in my school, or else, people will know our friendship, which is not good for your selection." Wendy reminded him in a low voice.
"Don't worry, I will make arrangements. You have to be more quick—witted and not be bullied by others." In the end, Joseph decided that he would not care about her anymore and let her freely display her skills. In any case, his sister would grow up sooner or later.
"Brother, you really don't want to call Duke?" Wendy's serious expression flashed across her mind. She felt really thwarted, if her brother could say a few good words for him, maybe Duke would give her some face.
"No, don't bother him. He's in a transition period right now, so he's definitely not in a good mood." Joseph finally decided to not trouble this good friend of his.
Wendy's heart plummeted.
“you don't love me anymore. Otherwise, why wouldn't you be willing to help me with this small favor?
