My Bossy CEO Husband

In your second year of high school? Yes.

Nearby, Brian noticed the two chatting and chose not to interrupt, instead looking over at Dilan, who was standing to the side, gingerly touching his injured face.

After a moment, Brian walked over to him.

He inquired, Wheres the first aid kit? Why do you ask? Dilans tone was sharp, defensive.

Brian shot him a quick look.

Do you want your face to swell up Like a balloon by tomorrow? Silenced by the remark, Dilan turned and headed to his room, with Brian following close behind. What are you doing here? Dilan asked, his voice still edged as he pulled a first aid kit from under the bed.

I wish to assist you, Brian stated simply No need.

sit down, Brian commanded, not taking no for an answer, his tone brooking no argument.

Dilan looked at him, memories of what Shari had said fueling his anger.

He clenched his fists, a visceral urge to strike surging within him.

Brian, meanwhile, had taken out an alcohol swab from the first aid kit and noticed Dilans unfriendly glare.noveldrama

He squinted back at him.

My brother died because of you! Brian frowned.

Although he hadnt directly caused the death of Dilans brother, Jamir had died saving him and Rosalynn, making him feel an indirect responsibility.

Seeing the hatred burning in Dilans eyes, he paused, then asked cautiously, You want revenge on me? Dilan glared, his fists clenched so tightly they shook, but he remained silent.

Brians tone was even as he responded, Just so you know, I have trained in kickboxing, and I hold a ninth-degree black belt in Taekwondo.

I dont think you stand a chance against me right now.

If you want to beat me, join a training class and improve your skills first. His demeanor was calm, unfazed by the tension.

He didnt take Dilans threats seriously, which only incited Dilan further.

With a crack of his knuckles, Dilan threw a punch.

Brians expression turned serious in an instant, and he quickly dodged to the side.

As Dilan threw another punch, Brian dodged again and deftly swept his leg, causing Dilan to fall to the floor.

Meanwhile, Rosalynn and Rainie were deep in conversation on the sofa when a series of muffled noises emanated from the room nearby.
