I Treat You Like a Brother

The call was connected.

"Juno".

"Adam, is the wedding over?"

On the other end of the phone, Juno asked with a smile, "Are you back in New York?"

"It's over."

Adam laughed and said, "I'm back already. I just saved a life at the hospital."

"Congratulations!"

Juno, knowing Adam's extreme passion for saving lives, immediately offered her congratulations.

"Hehe."

Adam was in a good mood. "Why are you calling at this hour?"

"Next Thursday is Thanksgiving."

Juno laughed and said, "There are only four days left, and then you'll only have one day off. I guess you're not going back to Texas, are you?"

"Of course not."

Adam shook his head. "It's too much trouble to go back for just one day of vacation."

I guessed it.

Juno chuckled, "I have a suggestion. On Thanksgiving, Karen and I will go over, and you can invite Paige and a few other friends. How about we celebrate Thanksgiving together?"

"OK."

Adam nodded without hesitation. "But I still need to ask Chandler and Monica. I guess everyone else will go home. This is Lily's first time going back to her hometown with Marshall, so it's very significant. But if we invite Chandler and Monica, Phoebe will probably come too. You know she doesn't have any family..."

"I know."

Juno interrupted, "I've already asked for you. Monica and Chandler have agreed. Phoebe hasn't decided yet. We'll let her decide what she likes. As for the Thanksgiving dinner and decorations, Monica and Karen can handle that. You and Paige can discuss it first."

"Well."

Adam was taken aback.

You've already made a happy decision, and now you're asking me if I'm going back to Texas...

"What? You want to spend Thanksgiving alone with Paige?"

On the other end of the phone, Juno gave a half-smile, "So clingy? It can't be that bad, can it?"

"Look at what you're saying."

Adam quickly replied, "How could that be?"

"That's good."

Juno joked, "Otherwise, it would truly be a case of forgetting the old for the new!"

"..."

Adam's lips twitched.

Juno seems a bit strange today; her words are sarcastic and pointed.

"What? You're not convinced?"

Juno chuckled softly and said leisurely, "Aren't you going to ask Heather how she planned it?"

"Cough cough."

Adam coughed lightly, feeling secretly ashamed, and said awkwardly, "Heather... what are your plans?"

"I originally planned to invite her to come along."

Juno sighed, "But she felt sorry for someone and thought it wasn't appropriate. Alas, a girl with such a broad mind who only knows how to give silently is truly the one who suffers the most."

"Hehe."

Adam chuckled dryly. "I'll call her later and invite her to spend Thanksgiving with me."

Is this appropriate?

Juno laughed and said, "What about Paige then? How are you going to introduce her?"

"..."

Adam's lips twitched; he was now certain that Juno was mocking him.

However, the thought of Paige meeting Heather gave him a real headache.

"Hehe."

On the other end of the phone, Juno seemed to be able to see Adam's expression, and she chuckled.

"Juno!"

Adam called out in an annoyed tone.

We strongly condemn her behavior of enjoying the spectacle and making things worse.

"Now you know what a headache is?"

Juno chuckled, "We all know you like Paige. You often talk about Paige with Heather when you get together. Heather doesn't mind, but we just can't stand it and feel sorry for her."

"Are you guys still talking about Paige?"

Adam smiled wryly, "What are we talking about her for?"

"We talk about everything."

Juno said playfully, "But the main point is to talk about what kind of extraordinary charm Paige has that made the playboy Adam Duncan so infatuated that he's like a lovestruck virgin, tsk tsk!"

"Stop talking nonsense."

Adam retorted, "Who's so infatuated like a virgin love-struck fool? Have you ever seen a virgin love-struck fool who has so many female friends at the same time?"

Because we are best friends.

We contact each other every night.

Juno often takes the initiative to ask Adam about his daily life.

Whether it was Kate proactively approached him, asking for his help to sort out the case overnight.

On Halloween night, the deputy director of Marvel's S.H.I.E.L.D.. battled DC's Aquaman's mother.

Or perhaps Lily later sent him to the Bing Family to treat Robin's wounds, which had broken his conscience.

She knows everything.

However, Adam never paid any attention to her desire to learn more about the details, which she found very interesting.

We can chat and brag as we like.

But revealing those deeper, more extreme private details is another matter entirely.

Adam isn't a pervert!

"Paige is different after all, isn't she?"

Juno hit the nail on the head. "At least Heather and the others can't compare, can they?"

"This is getting more and more exaggerated..."

Adam remained silent.

Isn't that so?

Juno said slowly, "How good were you and Heather back then? We heard everything clearly from next door when we were in the Cabin in the Woods, how much you loved Heather."

"This is different..."

Adam blushed.

Juno laughed and said, "You dare say Paige has a better figure Heather?"

"Of course not."

Adam shook his head.

Heather is truly a world-dominating ruler.

She was already stunningly beautiful, and with her amazing figure, she still ranked first among Adam's many female friends.

Even Paige, the ice queen who descended to the mortal world, could only surpass her in terms of looks.

However, when combined...

Emmm.

Paige has a pure and innocent image.

There's no comparison...

"Here's the problem."

Juno laughed and said, "Since it's not an external difference, then it must be an internal one. Otherwise, why didn't you care when Heather had problems, since you and Heather were such good friends?"

But as soon as Paige arrived, before anything else had happened, she bought a house and hired six bodyguards, plus a personal female assistant.

He even accompanied her to a wedding, walking the red carpet with the best man and maid of honor.

Tsk tsk!

Have any of these treatments ever happened to any of your other female friends?

Believe me.

Heather treats you much better than Paige does.

But why is it that Heather, who has a great figure, treats you well, and even came first, doesn't compare to Paige's place in your heart?

They're both female friends, so why is there such a big difference?

"Why not?"

Adam retorted, "I also said I would provide you with bodyguards, but you said you didn't need them."

On the other end of the phone.

There was silence for a moment.

"What? Speechless now?"

Adam smiled smugly.

Juno said slowly, "Am I considered your good friend too?"

"..."

Adam's lips twitched.

Because he seemed to picture Juno's expression on the other end of the phone, as if to say, "I treat you like a brother, but you want to sleep with me."

"I was just using an analogy."

Adam chuckled dryly, "Besides, I didn't say anything wrong. Aren't you my best friend?"

"Hehe."

Juno didn't reply, but just smiled and changed the subject, "Don't worry. Even if you called Heather, she wouldn't go."

She usually needs to stay at the manor and doesn't have much time to get together with you, let alone on this holiday when the whole family is reunited.

If she really runs to your place now, her adoptive mother will go crazy.

So.

Karen and I went; they were all old acquaintances of Paige's.

It won't give you a headache.
