After Betrayal: Lightning Marriage to Mr. Enigmatic-Chapter 889: Taking Him as a Life Benchmark

Is Austin Winters saying he’s being kept by Harry Hunter?

Not only did he offer up his cousin, but now he’s offering himself too?

"My company is just collaborating with Star Region Group. I earn my money legitimately. Do you think everyone is like you, always taking crooked paths?"

Alexander Parker’s tone was unpleasant, and Austin Winters, afraid of provoking him, quickly placated him: "Yes, I’m the one with the crooked ways. I’m petty, and you’re a gentleman, so don’t fuss with me. I already said I’m here to say goodbye. Let’s not end our last meeting on a sour note."

Only after hearing this did Alexander Parker’s hostility ease a bit. He thought for a moment and asked him, "When are you leaving?"

"In three days."

"Where are you going?"

"First to the USA to take care of an old injury. After some time, I’ll be heading to the S Kingdom. The current Prince of the S Kingdom is that dog Connor, did you know?"

"I know."

Austin Winters was full of sentiment: "How did he go from being a dog to a prince? Aren’t frogs supposed to become princes? Now dogs can too?"

Alexander Parker felt nothing about this. He was naturally indifferent to emotions like jealousy, envy, or nostalgia.

However, he could see that Austin Winters seemed incredibly envious.

"So, are you planning to kill Connor and become the Prince of the S Kingdom yourself? Then seize all the wealth of the S Kingdom, turn around, and confront Harry Hunter? Swallow his Star Region Group?"

Austin Winters looked at him in shock: "How did you know?!"

This plan was known only by his father, Tucker Seal. Even Little Crane was unaware. How could this person figure out so much just by his offhand remark!

This is beyond human comprehension!

"Not only do I know you want to swallow the Hunter Family, but I also know you want to swallow me too. Beating Harry Hunter has always been your dream, hasn’t it? Once that dream is fulfilled, I’m next."

"How could that be? You’re nothing like Harry Hunter. I got beat up by him a lot growing up, so hitting back is only fair, but we have no grudges between us. We can be good brothers for life!"

As Austin Winters spoke, he reached out to put an arm around Alexander Parker’s shoulder.

Alexander Parker abruptly seized his wrist, his hostility flaring up again: "Good brothers, and you’re always making moves? What kind of brother is so handsy with you? Behave yourself!"

Austin Winters looked at him with teary eyes: "I say, have you never had a good brother? Good brothers always put their arms around each other, okay? This is just normal contact between men. You’re overreacting! My wrist is about to break; let go!"

Alexander Parker released his grip: "It’s not that easy to fool me. I’ve never seen Harry Hunter arm-in-arm with any man."

"He’s not even human; he’s actually a devil! You can’t take him as the standard!"

Austin Winters was fuming, but looking at Alexander Parker’s exceptionally handsome face, he couldn’t bring himself to get angry with him, so he could only curse Harry Hunter in his heart fiercely.

Alexander Parker, however, was stunned.

It turned out that, unconsciously, he had taken Harry Hunter as some kind of life standard, always tending to align himself with him in whatever he did.

This was not good, not right!

Alexander Parker found himself trapped, his mood turning sour. And when his mood soured, he disliked seeing people: "Let me be alone for a while. Get out."

Austin Winters didn’t know where he had misspoken again. He opened his mouth, wanting to say they should hug, but seeing Alexander Parker’s sullen face, he swallowed back this minor request.
