My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 2431

"Hey, Anox, I need to talk to you."

"Hm? What's up?"

"Let's talk... alone."

Anox furrowed his brows, puzzled by Kalo's unusual demeanor. Was it seriousness or hesitation?

The two then walked to a corner near the bus stop.

"This should do," Kalo said, stopping in his tracks.

Anox was confused. "Did something happen, Kalo?"

"Anox, you like Teresa, don't you?"

"Huh?" Anox clearly did not expect such a direct question. Flustered, he stammered, "W-What's wrong with you? Why are you asking something so weird?"

"I knew it." Kalo had already anticipated his brother's reaction.

"Anox, are you still going to lie to yourself?"

Anox's expression froze. This side of Kalo felt unfamiliar to him.

"What do you mean?"

"Anox, answer me! Do you like Teresa?"

"I... I..." Anox seemed to have made some sort of decision. He lowered his head to avoid meeting Kalo's eyes.

"I don't like her," Anox said through gritted teeth.

However, Kalo suddenly grabbed Anox by the hair, pulling his head up.

"Really?! Then why are there tears in your eyes?! What's with that look?!"

Anox looked at Kalo with a hurt expression, but he was still trying to turn away, clinging to his desire to escape.

"I get it, Kalo. I understand, Kalo! I—"

Just then, Teresa called out from a distance, "You two, don't fight! Chevy, come here, quick!"

Kalo finally released Anox.

Kalo had made up his mind, and so had Anox. They understood each other without saying a word.

When Teresa reached them, both of them assured her that everything was fine.

"We weren't fighting," Anox said.

Kalo nodded with a sense of resolution. "Yeah. To be precise, we're competing!"

"Well, make sure you don't lose."

"Don't underestimate me."
