Kieran:
If there was one thing I hated more than walking into chaos, it was being kept in chaos with no explanation.
Oscar was standing by the window with his arms crossed, scowling at the floor like it had personally offended him. River was sitting behind my desk like a king on his throne, stone-faced but smoldering beneath the surface.
Neither said a word.
"Are we doing this in silence now?" I muttered and turned to Oscar, who was looking like he would rather claw through the glass than speak. "Alright, little brother. Start talking. What the hell is going on?"
He finally opened his mouth, but it was River who barked out first in a voice that was sharp with frustration. "What's going on is that our baby brother has suddenly decided to be stupid."
I raised a brow at that. "That's a bit dramatic. Stupid how?"
Oscar, clearly bristling, turned to face me now. "I refused to get engaged to Jasmine Bills."
I blinked. "Excuse me?"
