Well, Bella was not one to pry into her brother's relationships. Otherwise, she would be keeping an eye on Asher and Arnold's blossoming love.
"I didn't expect Aaron to burst into the place and act cocky, though." Justin carried Bella to the sofa to sit down. With Bella sitting on his lap, Justin put his hand on her belly and gave her a gentle rub.

Thank goodness Bella was not on the losing end. Otherwise, Justin would have a say about it.
"Hmph! I smacked him back into his place." Bella hung her arms around the neck of his neck and nuzzled up to his neck, her warm breath against his skin sending fire to his loins.
"The Larsons are cocky for a few reasons. They've been on a roll lately, with several successful medical research projects under their belt. I heard they are close to developing a new drug for Parkinson's. Once they succeed, their pharmaceutical empire will becglobal. Their wealth will grow exponentially. Their success fuels their arrogance. Our achievements are nothing compared to theirs, even with our families put together." "I can understand them getting carried away by success, but they should only gloat when that happens." Justin smirked. "Salvador Corporation doesn't dabble in anything pharmaceutical, but I know it takes countless experiments to develop a drug. There are a lot of bureaucratic tapes to go through. It's too early to determine whether the Larsons can handle the stress that comes with success." "Aunt Mila has been with him for many years.

"I think this is it for me, Quentin." Wyatt smiled wryly.
It felt like a gut punch to Quentin. "Don't say that. You had a stroke. You'll be fine if you keep up with the treatment. You're at an age where illnesses are not avoidable. Logan often gets admitted to the hospital. I heard that Lance has cardia@issues. He's a frequent visitor at the hospital too. I doubt he's healthier than you. Don't give up on yourself." "Logan is pretty old. How can you compareto him?" Wyatt frowned. “Hmph! As for Lance, he deserves it.” Quentin smiled faintly without saying another word.
"I'm not trying to scare you, but I honestly think my health has been on the decline since my last attack."
