Henry shang one hand over Nina’s shoulder and the other around Charlie’s as they casually went into
living room.
Humphrey and Greg were a dinte surprised to see Henry holding Nina and Charlie. They both wondered when the three suddenly had such a good
Greg was quite jealous.
Nina welded Greg whenever she saw him. It would be strange if she did not anger him a few times a day tireg wondered why Nina was so docile. with Hemy that she was even willing to let him hold her If he did what Henry waddning to Ninx, she would probably throw him over her shoulder.
Greg clicked his tongue in frustration
Greg took a step forward and said to them with a faint smile, “Henry, how did you guys become so close after one afternoon! All it took was playing one gaine of basketball to start liking each other. Look at you embracing each other.”
next time
Henry grinned at his brother and said happily, “Greg, you don’t understand. This is the charm of basketball! Join my basketball team nexti
As soon as Henry spoke, Nina nied her head and pointed at him.
She said, “Henry, aren’t we helping you out of kindness! You were dehydrated and couldn’t stand properly after playing that last game? What does this have to do with bonding over basketball”
Henry was full of energy when they were playing basketball, but as soon as they finished the last round, he fell to the ground and could not even stand up. He looked like he was about to pass out at any moment. Nina and Charlie couldn’t do anything but carry him into the house.
Henry said confidently, “Nina, this is because of basketball! If I didn’t play basketball, would 1 have been exhausted? If wasn’t exhausted, would you have cared me?”
Nina was shocked
That
makes sense.”
“Haha. exactly Henry exclaimed.
When Charlie saw that Henry had convinced Nina, he was a little speechless.
Nina was easily fooled by anyone. She thought Henry was acting normal and was willing to help him. Charlie reckoned she wouldn’t have helped it Greg were in the same position.
However, on second thought, they also believed Henry was a nice guy because he was a basketball nerd and thought about basketball all the time. That was why they showed him kindness.
In other words, it was basketball that brought them closer.
Charlie thought, Fuck. It really was basketball. The magic of basketball.
Charlie was completely defeated because Henry
ry also convinced him, using this twisted logic.
As if he had heard Charlie and Nina’s thoughts, Gabriel glanced at his companions. His indifferent facial expression said only two words
At night, the Woods family members had gathered for dinner.
Humphrey decided in make the first move and sit beside his sister, Nina. Unexpectedly, someone else acted faster and sat beside Nina before he could even take a strje
Humphrey was shocked to see the it was not Henry, Charlie, or Gabriel. He couldn’t believe his father decided to sit next to Nina.
“Dad?” Humpbiry asked.
The whole family was shocked to see Darell sitting beside Nina
“Yes” Darell asked.
Nina, who was famished and already stuffing chicken drumsticks into her mouth, turned her doe eyes at Darell and blinked at him. She was also a

little curious as to why her father decided to sit beside her today.
However, because she had a chicken drumstick in her mouth, she couldn’t voice her question. Nina did not want to stop eating, so she just blinked at Darell, hoping that he would be tactful and tell her the reason
However, Darell was used to being cold and aloof as the head of the family.
There was no need for him to give a reason for his actions.
Everyone stared at him as if they had seen a ghost. He was acting extremely calm as if nothing had happened. Darell asked everyone, “What are you waiting for? Take a seat.”
As he spoke, he naturally picked up his cutlery, stabbed a large meatball, and placed it on Nina’s plate After eating so many meals together, Darell more or less knew that Nina loved to eat meat, so he definitely made the right choice to pick up the meatball for her.
Indeed, after seeing the meatball on her plate, Nina’s eyes lit up, and the doubt on her face changed to approval.
She thought. This is strange. Did he just change his personality overnight? He’s even picking up meatballs for me. I can’t help but feel pleased about his actions. This is lovely!
