Why Alexis Wants To Protect Arielle

Arielle felt her heart drop to the ground when she heard Alexis's answer.

"So, is it just for the reason of wanting to cause a conflict?" she asked her brother.

"Not really. All because I want to protect."

Arielle and Sasha looked at each other in surprise. That was one of the most absurd answers. Not once did Arielle think, Alexis would say those words.

It felt very strange. Alexis was the only older brother who never bullied her, but he never protected her either. Arielle's existence in Alexis's life didn't matter, just like a passing wind. Even Archie, who was now being nice to her, had bullied her along with Andrea and the others.

However, if one truly thought about it, Alexis did protect Arielle a few times indirectly. Alexis was the one who stopped their siblings from calling Arielle the child of a witch. At that time, Andrea, Archie, and Annalise really didn't stop calling her a witch's child.
