Chapter 613 - Our Differences (2) (1/2)

Kevin looked at Jason. ”You shouldn't have thought of yourself too highly.”

Jason was stunned to hear Kevin's words. He smiled to himself. Maybe, this was the biggest reason why he could never have romantic feelings for Kanae anymore. The budding thoughts he had in the past disappeared as soon as they appeared. He held himself too high of a pedestal and saw himself as someone above her, which made him felt down when she became stronger than him.

The feeling that he could never catch up with her just made him unable to see her more than a little sister.

A little sister that has grown up.

But with Laura, it was completely different. He just enjoyed her presence and her antics to the point that he couldn't leave her alone. Even though she might surpass him, he was not worried at all and instead wished that he could see that moment with her. He wished to protect her all the time and never let any harm come to her.

”Yeah, you're right,” Jason laughed. ”I just can't see Kanae like that.”

He only got attracted to Kanae because he saw her as someone he needed to protect. However, he couldn't harbor more feelings than that when he saw her surpassed him. The feeling he had only turned into that of a brother who was proud of her sister.

It was not like he felt envy.

He couldn't explain his heart too well, but he knew that he felt proud of Kanae. They were not compatible with one another because of his preferences. Probably, it was also the reason why Kanae only saw him as her brother too. The two of them were not meant for each other.

”Is that so?”

Jason looked over to Kevin. ”Talking about thinking of oneself too high, aren't you one too?”

Kevin stared back at Jason. ”I don't prioritize them when I'm trying to chase after someone I liked.”

The two of them were at similar ages and held high positions. One in the underworld while the other one in the business world. They naturally have their pride to be able to become the best in their own field.

Jason curled his lips, recalling his own shameless attitude when he wanted to get closer to Laura. ”I can understand that now.”

”Because of Laura?”

”Do you really think that I'm only getting close to Laura because of Kanae? Even before you kill me, I'm sure that Kanae will roast me alive first,” Jason shook his head.

Kanae is very protective of her little sister. If he was not serious about that young girl, Kanae would never let him off. There was no need for Kevin to make his move because Kanae would surely deal with it herself. He would be digging his own grave if he tried to mess around with Kanae.

”I see,” Kevin's tone was indifferent.

”Aren't you glad that your woman's pursuer reduces by one?”

Kevin glanced at Jason coldly. ”Even if there are a lot of men that wish to get close to her, I will never let them.”

For a moment, Jason was stunned. He never realized how possessive Kevin was since this man always acted normal. Because of his position and responsibility, he held himself back and only showed them all now.

”Can you even do that?”

”I'll make sure that she won't be able to look at anyone else,” Kevin replied somberly. ”Don't you think you would do the same for your woman?”

”Yeah,” Jason smiled. He wanted Laura to look only at him. The thought of seeing her looking with affection to another man would just make him feel bad. No, not just bad, he would wish to tear down that man so that Laura could never see anyone but him.

Kevin stopped the conversation. He sat down on the opposite chair as he waited for Kanae to come out of the room. He could guess that she was feeling guilty because she was unable to come in time this time. Even though she had placed tracker in her sister's bracelet, it was useless if she couldn't arrive in time.
