Evelyn could only glare at him as she gave in, taking a seat opposite him. Shortly after, the chocolate cake was delivered and he pushed it over to her. "Go ahead, dig in. I know how much you like chocolate cake."
"How would you even know that?" she muttered as she picked up the dessert spoon.
Brandon crossed his legs. "I may not say much, but I do pay attention, just like father did."
She paused slightly, but then scooped a spoonful into her mouth, pretending like she hadn't heard a word he said.
"What did you want to talk to me about?"
Brandon stared at her.
He took a few moments before saying, "First of all, I'd like to know how you've been doing."
"It's none of your business."
"It is my business, Evelyn. I'm your older brother, and it's my job to look after you."
"Yeah, right." She scoffed out a laugh. "What kind of a big brother bullies his sister?"
"I never bullied you." Brandon furrowed his brows. "I don't recall ever participating in such."
