Chris from the first moment he saw you two together thought you were a perfect match. For him it was ideal for his sister to be with someone although perhaps it was too early to get his hopes up, but he didn't care, he wanted her to be happy with you.
Although all that illusion of a future with her being with you as a couple disappeared when his sister told him that you had broken up, surely they were the words he never wanted to hear, but finally he heard them.
He had to fix this, somehow or other, so without Claire knowing he was talking to you, for a long time. You felt strange that your ex's older brother was talking to you, even though you were good friends. You knew his intentions were different, you could tell from the first moment.
“Tell me, what was the mistake that made you break up?” he asked when you told him you knew his intentions "you are HER beloved, whether you are together or not’ he gave you a pat on the back, friendly, but a little strong "you have to go for her, she will surely fall for you again"
