Adrian Desmond was in a foul mood, and Jule wasn't feeling much better.
Thinking of the tears Melanie Carpenter had shed, the heartbreak she had suffered, Jule angrily smashed his liquor bottle on the floor and glared at Adrian. "Adrian, are you even a man? If you claim to be one, then you shouldn't treat Melanie like that."
Jule had harbored feelings for Melanie since childhood. But with her marriage to Adrian, Jule had kept his love hidden and unspoken.
He had let Adrian have his chance, but Adrian only trampled over Melanie as if she were nothing more than a blade of grass.
"She's also your cousin! Have you forgotten how much your Uncle adored you? His actions brought ruin to his family out of loyalty for yours. If it weren't for you, Melanie wouldn't have ended up an orphan... and how do you repay her?"
