Hamlyn's smile contorted with a hint of anger as he questioned, "And what's the reason for that?"
Tatsuya maintained his composed smile as he responded, "She's joining my family for dinner tonight."
Hamlyn retorted, "Ah, so she's having a family dinner with her brother, huh?"
Tatsuya's smile remained unfazed as he calmly stated, "Feel free to interpret it however you wish.”
With a dismissive gesture, Tatsuya turned away from Hamlyn, striding confidently ahead. Abruptly, he halted, spinning on his heels to deliver a chilling ultimatum, “I won't let her visit your place." Flashing a taunting smile, he continued on his way, leaving Hamlyn simmering with frustration.
Hamlyn stood with a scowl etched deeply on his face, his hands clenched into tight fists, radiating palpable fury. Henry Hamond and Fredy exchanged tense glares with Hamlyn, who appeared consumed by his anger.
As night fell, the group gathered at Hamlyn's house, settling onto the dinner table.
