Chapter 28
A strong sense of unwillingness lingered in the hearts of the three brothers.
They glanced at each other and saw the disbelief in each other’s eyes.
However, Joshua had no intention of giving them another chance.
When the bodyguard was forced to kneel in the temple, a group of servants brought out everything related to Raelynn and, in front of them, slowly threw it into the brazier, burning it to ashes.
“No! Don’t burn!”
Adam, Benjamin, and Charlie were kneeling on the ground, struggling with all their might. The wounds on their bod- ies, inflicted by the “family rules,” had just healed, only to be completely torn open again.
Blood flowed down their bodies, staining the ground red.
In their eyes, there was only the blazing fire in the brazier.
The servant, as if on purpose, moved neither quickly nor slowly, and it took a whole day to burn everything complete-
The entire Norster family was enveloped in a smoky, fiery smell.
The ancestral hall was filled with dead silence.
In the end, it was proven that Raelynn had liked their things, but now they are all gone.
After the fire was extinguished, a bodyguard approached the three brothers and said sternly, “…”
“Mr. Joshua asked me to tell you that the things you once discarded as worthless, he treasures them like gold. People are the same way, regret is useless, you are already too late.”
With that, the bodyguard also threw a few photos in their faces.
The photos were taken of Joshua and Raelynn in their wedding dresses.
Every time Joshua went on a business trip, he would bring her along. During their free time, the two of them traveled to different countries and cities to take wedding photos.
The happy and sweet smile of the girl in the photo was something they had never seen before.
At that moment, Adam, Benjamin, and Charlie all fell silent.
In my memory, Raelynn’s bright smile never appeared.
She always seemed to have a forced smile on her face.

“Also, Mr. Joshua mentioned that Madam does not like roses, it is Mr. Adam who likes them. She also has no interest in medicine, but she studied it reluctantly.”
“Mr. Charlie’s movies were not bad, but she didn’t love them. All of this was just because of your interest, she made an effort to understand.”
“You had countless opportunities to be with her, but you all gave up, and never took the initiative to get to know her preferences. Mr. Joshua just happened to seize one chance.”
“Give up, young masters.”
The final sentence was not actually spoken by Joshua, but was rather a spontaneous comment from the bodyguard.
Unfortunately, the three of them were never ones to listen to advice.
They firmly held a belief in their hearts that no one could change their minds unless they chose to give up voluntarily.
The Norster family’s three brothers knelt in the ancestral hall for who knows how many days. Every day, just as their wounds were beginning to heal, they would tear open once again.
Until the end, when their bodies could no longer bear it, they finally let go and shouted:
“Raelynn was my little aunt, and from now on, I will never have any thoughts about her again.”
Just after shouting, the three of them all fainted.
When he woke up again, Adam found himself being sent abroad to work for a foreign company.
Having just recovered his health, he was preparing to pack up and return to his home country when a group of body- guards stopped him.
“Mr. Adam, Mr. Joshua said that you cannot go back to your country for the next few years. The company here needs you, so please stay here with peace of mind.”
He had no choice but to stay.
But little did I know, this stay would last for ten years.
Benjamin was sent to the national medical research institute, where he was forced to sign a “life-sacrificing” agree- ment. Unless something unexpected happened, he would hardly be able to leave for the rest of his life.
Even when he goes out, there are countless soldiers protecting his safety, and they will send him back to the research institute when the time comes.
He completely lost his freedom and was forced to devote himself to the country.
Charlie, on the other hand, unknowingly took on numerous movies and TV shows, leaving him with almost no chance to catch his breath.
He escaped once and was sent back by Joshua’s men once.
No matter where he escaped to, he would be sent back.

“Don’t worry, they will never have the chance to disturb us again.”
Joshua held Raelynn in his arms, his eyes filled with tenderness and affection.
Raelynn took the initiative to kiss him and said, “Don’t pay attention to irrelevant people.”
