Though paralyzed, still radiantly charming!

Chapter 402: What kind of person was this guy!?

In the end, Ethan still had no idea what Sophia wanted when she came over to his place.

It felt like she was just looking for trouble.

So, in the end, Ethan kicked her out.

After all, it was his rare evening to relax—he didn't have the energy to waste on Sophia's nonsense.

Even though she left cursing under her breath, she still went home in the end.

If she hadn't been so sensible, Ethan wouldn't have minded showing her who's boss.

And Ethan was a man of action.

After finalizing the plan to reform the band VibraMyst, he gave Elise a heads-up.

Elise didn't object to the idea of debuting. After all, her life goals had changed.

She was determined to keep the band together for life. Otherwise, no matter how good a band is, if they don't debut, they'll eventually break up for one reason or another.

This time, she wasn't going to let VibraMyst fall apart again.

When Elise told Zara about it, Zara was pretty surprised by the outcome.

After all, they had started as just a casual band for fun, and now, right after reforming, they were already aiming for a debut. It left her feeling a bit overwhelmed.

But Elise was like a guiding light in Zara's life. As long as that light was there, Zara wouldn't lose her way.

So, after taking it all in, Zara agreed.

As for Kylie, she was the easiest to convince. Once Nessa talked to her, Kylie naturally agreed.

Of course, debuting also involved getting Kylie's parents on board, and that was Ethan's job as the man behind the scenes.

In the end, Kylie's parents were more than happy to trust Ethan with their daughter.

Saturday rolled around.

Ethan went to the hospital to bring Blair home.

Sophia came along too, though she was pretty annoyed that Ethan had knocked on her door so early in the morning.

Still, she didn't turn him down.

When Blair saw Sophia, she was all smiles and warmth.

An old friend she hadn't seen in years was standing right in front of her, and Blair didn't hesitate for a second, acting like they'd been in touch all along.

But Blair's almost succubus-like enthusiasm made Sophia a little uncomfortable. After all, she had kind of forgotten about Blair over the years, and now, standing in front of Blair's sunny disposition, she felt a bit guilty and couldn't meet her eyes.

Blair didn't have much to pack, so she left with just a few things.

She held onto Ethan with one arm and Sophia with the other, looking for all the world like they were a happy little family.

When they got back to the apartment, Blair was stunned. She hadn't expected her brother to be able to buy such a high-end place at his age. In her eyes, he was practically Superman.

As soon as they walked in, she ran straight to the large outdoor terrace to take in the view.

Soon after, there was a knock at the door. Sophia went to open it.

She found Vanessa standing outside and welcomed her in with a big smile.

After that, the rest of the band members started arriving at Ethan's place one by one.

Sophia greeted them all, her face glowing with happiness and excitement.

By the time all five members of VibraMyst were gathered together, Sophia felt like her life was complete.

She had waited so long for this day!

Of course, the only downside was that Ethan was there too, which was a bit of an eyesore for her.

But after being apart for so long, especially with Elise and Nessa, things were a little awkward when they first saw each other again.

It was Sophia who helped smooth things over.

"Hey, bro, why'd you invite so many cute girls over to the house?"

Blair glanced around at the five girls, sensing the strange tension in the air. Her sharp instincts told her there was something deeper going on here.

It felt like all these girls had some kind of connection to her brother.

"I didn't tell you?"

Ethan shot her a quick look and explained, "I started a talent agency. They're my first group—VibraMyst."

"Definitely didn't mention that."

Blair crossed her arms, then added with a hint of admiration, "But wow, a band, huh? That's pretty cool."

Ethan turned to her and said, "If you're interested, Blair, I could help you start a band too. I've met a lot of talented girls recently."

"Let's not go there just yet."

Blair laughed it off. After all, now that she was feeling better, there were plenty of things she wanted to do. Just because others were forming a band didn't mean she had the same urge.

Then, with a playful glint in her eye, Blair gave Ethan a curious look and asked, "But out of all these girls, which one's going to be my future sister-in-law?"

She was just teasing, but to her surprise, her brother actually seemed to be thinking about it. Wait, could she have guessed right?

"Well, technically, I am dating Vanessa," Ethan said, almost too casually.

Technically?

Blair blinked in surprise. She remembered Vanessa as the blue-haired girl with the twin tails—definitely a beauty. Then again, everyone here, including herself, could be considered a knockout.

Not that Blair was some overprotective sister or anything. If her brother said so, she'd just roll with it.

So, she walked right over to Vanessa, plopped down next to her, and wrapped her arm around Vanessa's. With a sweet smile, she said, "Hey, sis-in-law!"

The heavy atmosphere in the room was instantly shattered. The rest of the VibraMyst members were completely stunned.

Vanessa's face turned bright red in an instant.

"Wha…!?" Sophia couldn't stay seated any longer.

"So, you two are already at that stage?" Zara raised an eyebrow, intrigued.

"Ethan's a good guy. I'm happy for you," Elise said with a warm, approving smile.

"…" Kylie, as usual, remained expressionless, just being Kylie.

"Sophia, Vanessa and Ethan aren't like that!" Sophia shot up, her voice serious. "And I don't approve!"

"I mean," Zara chimed in, trying to be fair, "they're a perfect match. I don't think it's really up to you to object, Sophia."

"Huh?"

Blair was completely thrown off by Sophia's reaction. She asked, surprised, "Wait, Sophia, do you like my brother too? Now that I think about it, didn't I see you crying in his room late at night last time? What's going on between you two?"

"What!?"

Vanessa was utterly shocked. She hadn't heard anything about that!

All the girls turned to look at Ethan, expecting some kind of explanation. But instead, they found him standing off to the side, watching the whole thing unfold with an amused expression.

Was he seriously just enjoying the show?
