Chapter 1218 Just A Small Trouble

He had seen many beautiful women, but someone like Kate, who maximized her feminine charm and acted like a

seductive enchantress, was something he had never encountered before. What’s more, this extraordinary beauty

was his sister-in-law. The forbidden allure of such a situation ignited a deep desire, making him itchy and restless.

“Sigh…”

After some small talk, Kate suddenly pretended to sigh with sorrow.

“What’s wrong? Sister-in-law, do you have something on your mind?” Brayden asked proactively.

“It’s nothing, really. Just a small trouble,” Kate replied, feigning a distressed look. “You were injured recently, and I

don’t want to trouble you.”

“Sister-in-law, what are you talking about?” Brayden said with a hint of disappointment. “What do you mean by

‘trouble’? Are you looking down on me or thinking that I’m incapable of helping you?”

“No, no, that’s not what I meant,” Kate waved her hand, pretending to be modest.

“Sister-in-law, if you consider me family, just tell me what’s bothering you. I promise to help you with any

difficulties!” Brayden declared confidently.

“Well, alright then. Since you’re willing to help me,” Kate began, “I must tell you, this matter involves my third

uncle.”

Kate continued, putting on an act of distress, “Although my father is the current head of the Harmon family, the

real power lies in the hands of my third uncle, Hector. He’s an ambitious and cunning person who has always

coveted the position of family head. He’s used all sorts of despicable means to achieve his goals, completely

disregarding family bonds.”

“My father is kind-hearted and couldn’t possibly contend with Hector, who has pushed him into a corner. My father

often cries and has even had thoughts of suicide,” she added, her voice trembling with emotion. “As a daughter,

watching my father suffer like these pains me deeply. However, I’m just a weak woman and have no ability to

challenge my third uncle. I can only endure and make compromises.”

She sighed deeply and appeared wounded.

“Hmph! This Hector is truly shameless, worse than a beast!” Brayden exclaimed angrily. “The past is one thing, but

recently, he has become even more unbearable.”

Kate continued to add fuel to the fire, portraying herself as the victim. “To force my father to step down, my third

uncle resorted to stealing the family’s most treasured possession as a threat. If we can’t retrieve this treasure, my

father, as the family head, will be forced to take his own life. We have nowhere to turn!”

As she spoke, she began to sob softly, appearing even more pitiful.

Brayden, a male with a strong protective instinct, was ignited by her emotional performance. He stood up suddenly,

his aura domineering, and declared, “Sister-in-law, rest assured, I’ll take care of this matter! I’ll have someone

immediately capture Hector and interrogate him rigorously to make him hand over the treasure. You’ll get justice!”

“Brayden, my third uncle is cunning and always surrounded by skilled protectors. It’s almost impossible to capture

him,” Kate sighed.

“Hmph! He’s just a despicable scoundrel; I won’t put up with him!” Brayden slammed the table in anger. “Sister-in-

law, you consider me family now. If you have anything to say, just tell me. I promise to help you resolve it

beautifully!”

“Hector is a dangerous man, and he’s been using these powerful protectors for a long time. Capturing him is not

easy,” Kate continued, pretending to be worried.

“Ha! He’s just a vile character; I won’t let him get away with it!” Brayden declared confidently. “Sister-in-law, you

wait for my news at home. Tonight, I’ll definitely give you a satisfactory outcome!”

With that, he left the room, his head held high and his spirits soaring.

“Brayden, please be careful,” Kate pretended to call out, her smile growing even more triumphant.

It seemed that men truly did think with their lower halves, and it only took a few words to easily manipulate them.
