Ignatius Leclair's chiseled handsome face betrayed no emotion. He squinted slightly at Nathan Leclair and said slowly, one word at a time, "This is something Delphine ought to be concerned about. The South Seas situation is complex. Since you're back, I trust you're prepared, so I won't meddle in your affairs. From now on, don't meddle in Delphine's affairs either. She's my woman, your sister-in-law, and that will never change."
Nathan Leclair stared steadily at Ignatius Leclair. This seemed to be a clear declaration using the Leclair Family inheritance to make him completely abandon the faint obsession he had with Delphine. But truthfully, among the Leclair Family, the one most obsessed was Ignatius himself. What he clung to was merely the fleeting tremor of youthful feelings.
It's only after growing up that one realizes, as the years pass, emotions grow faint.
He could no longer find someone with whom he could fall deeply, passionately in love.
