Chapter 1374
"No way, no way!" Sandy shook her head emphatically. "I'm just curious!" Kiran put a finger to his lips,
whispering, "Kiddo, curiosity isn't always a good thing."
Sandy and Kiran managed to walk out of the Burke Estate, surprisingly without any hassle from the family.
Watching the bodyguards eye Kiran with fear, Sandy couldn't help but ask, "Brother, what did you do? Why are
they all so scared of you?" "Just remember, in this world, only the weak fear the strong." Kiran paused, glancing
at Sandy, "But you don't need to worry about that. As long as I'm around, no one's gonna mess with you."
Sandy leaned forward, asking, "Can't you just not be enemies with Sophie and the others?"
"Huh?"
"You shot her!"

""For your sake, | didn't kill her."
"But she's been really nice to me!"
"That's why | only shot her in the shoulder."
"I'm not happy about it!"
"Next time, I'll let her shoot back."
Sandy fell silent, at a loss for words. Kiran opened the car door, set up Sandy's favorite pink pillow, and adjusted
the seat just right before letting her hop in. Once inside, he carefully buckled her seatbelt. Sandy pouted, "The
way you're acting, I'll end up with no friends."
With a calm voice, Kiran asked while driving with one hand, "What's more important, your friends or your

"They're both important!"
"You can only choose one."
"Well..."
Sandy's face fell. Kiran could tell what her answer was, "So it's your brother who's more important, right?"
Sandy looked down, feeling conflicted.
Kiran added, "If I'm more important, don't get upset over people who don't really matter. Otherwise, | might just

Suddenly, Kiran slammed on the brakes, causing Sandy to jolt. Just as she thought he might kick her out, he
handed her a bottle of water, saying, "If you're all out of breath from tellingoff, have swater. I'm
listening."
"You..." Sandy's face flushed with annoyance. She decided that if her brother didn't caround, she'd keep
pestering him until he did. One day, two days, however long it took. Kiran, catching on to her plan through the
rearview mirror, leaned on the window and said, "We're running out of time, sis."
"What do you mean?"
"Joseph's gonna make his move in three days."
Kiran continued, "By then, your friends and everyone at Burke Estate will be in danger." "What?! Why so soon?"
"Joseph's impatient. With what he wants almost within his grasp, he's not gonna back down. So instead of trying
to change my mind, you might want to start thinking about how to protect your friends."
