Rosella, Evan’s biological mother, did not hold back during the live stream. She commented, urging him to eat more chili peppers and to do so quickly. With a tone of disdain, she noted that his slow pace made the broadcast painfully dull. She openly expressed her disappointment; Evan’s failure to win Abby back frustrated her, and his attempts to eat chili peppers seemed lackluster compared to others. To emphasize her point, she sent virtual gifts, each accompanied by a message encouraging him to eat more and speed up.
Observing Rosella’s actions, the rest of the York family quickly joined in. After all, if even the family matriarch and Evan’s own mother were participating, how could they not follow suit? Comments flooded in, urging Evan to continue eating, while gifts poured in as a display of support.
Overwhelmed by the unbearable spiciness, Evan glanced at the screen and saw the influx of comments and gifts from his family. Through the haze of burning pain, he seemed to understand the message they were sending: he had to give it his all.
Motivated by their unspoken challenge, he grabbed handfuls of chili peppers and stuffed them into his mouth. The fiery heat caused tears to stream down his face, and his lips swelled from the relentless spice.
Meanwhile, Abby watched the live stream. Witnessing the comments and Evan’s desperate attempts, her heart ached.
Unable to bear it any longer, she turned off the live stream. However, even with the broadcast ended, she found it hard to concentrate. Her mind was a whirlwind of emotions, and her heart felt heavy.
Minutes later, unable to contain her feelings, she tossed her pen aside, stood up, and pushed her chair back. Without hesitation, she strode out of her office.
As soon as she stepped into the

As she walked down the hallway, Abby unexpectedly encountered her sister, Adalee.

“Elder sister,” Abby called out.

Adalee, fully aware of the situation, smiled knowingly. “Abby, are you heading out?”

Abby hesitated for a moment before exclaiming, “He’s eaten so many chili peppers already. He doesn’t even like spicy food! Consuming that much at once could hurt his stomach.”

Despite everything, Abby couldn’t help but feel sympathy for Evan.

Adalee’s smile broadened. “If you’re worried about him, go stop him. He’s had enough. For someone who can’t handle spice, what he’s eaten so far is more than sufficient.”

Adalee had never intended for Evan to finish the entire basket of chili peppers; she simply wanted to challenge him and assess how sincere he was about winning Abby back. As long as Evan was willing to endure the test, she was prepared to let him off the hook—at least for now.

Of course, this was just the first test.

Previously, Evan’s pursuit of Abby had been smooth. Their family had been impressed by his background—he came from the prestigious York family, the wealthiest in Wiltspoon—and his initial efforts had been commendable.

Adalee herself had looked into Evan and concluded he was a suitable match for Abby. If they ended up together, Abby would likely be very happy. The values and traditions of the York family had also gained the approval of the Du family elders.

However, everything changed when Evan abruptly declared he couldn’t fall in love with her after spending a couple of months pursuing her and stirring her heart.

For Abby, a woman of pride and confidence, the rejection was a devastating blow. Although she didn’t outwardly show her pain, Adalee and the rest of the family could see it, and their hearts broke for her.

Out of loyalty and love for Abby, Adalee and her family had even considered

They were preparing to fly to Wiltspoon to confront Evan and hold him accountable, but Abby intervened. Instead, she took a leave of absence, flew to Wiltspoon herself, and attempted to resolve matters directly with Evan. Upon her return, Abby insisted that there had never been anything official between them. Since they had not publicly declared a relationship, she claimed there was nothing to end. However, Adalee knew better—Abby was still thinking about Evan. Despite their instinct to intervene, the family had respected Abby’s wishes and stayed out of the situation. Now, with Evan making an effort to return and win Abby back, Adalee and the others were no longer willing to remain passive.
