"Yes. That's because you've never told me why you like me. You told me that you had your grievances, but you can't hide the reason from me for so long, right? "We've been together for a month, but you haven't told me the truth yet.""I'm sorry," James replied mildly. He couldn't tell her the truth yet. He was really upset. Sometimes, telling the truth wouldn't change anything. Moreover, even if he told her his grievances, Summer might not like him either way. Since that was the case, he didn't want to speak up. As he thought about it, his gaze turned gloomy. Summer didn't know what was going on. She wondered why James couldn't tell her the truth. But since he was unwilling to speak, she couldn't force him. Anyway, it didn't really matter. She thought there was a chance he was lying about his grievances. Who knew the truth? She continued to be wary of James because she didn't want to be tricked by men again. Soon, it was 9:00 pm. The Quigleys had a strict curfew, and Summ

Just as Summer was about to fall asleep, she heard someone knock on the door. She figured it must be Luca since he always gave them supplements at 11:00 pm to improve our health.Since James was working, Summer didn't want to disturb him. So, she got out of bed and opened the door. However, instead of Luca, she saw Susanne, who was wearing a nightgown.Susanne greeted Summer after entering the room. Then, she immediately looked for James. "You're here, James." Susanne hugged James' neck like a koala and latched herself to his body like a magnet. Meanwhile, Summer was stunned. Were they really just cousins? But they seemed too close to each other.Unlike Susanne, Summer wouldn't be so intimate with her cousins. The most she did was place her arm around them or hold their arms. She wouldn't throw herself at them like Susanne. Though she was James' wife, Summer couldn't speak up at that point. After all, she didn't like James. What would he think if she jealously told him her opi

After Susanne left, Summer asked, "Shouldn't you tell me what's going on between the two of you? Weren't you acting? But it seemed so real…" "Acting?" James was confused. His expressions looked very real. Just then, Summer panicked. Was that real? Did Susanne like James? Wasn't that wrong? "James, tell me what's going on. Weren't you two acting in front of me just now? You wanted to get a reaction from me, right?""No.""Then, was what I saw just now real? Does your cousin have an ulterior motive toward you?" The more she thought about it, the more terrified she felt.Susanne and James behaved like those relatives in soap operas who grew up together and developed feelings for each other. What if James and Susanne had an incestuous relationship like that?Summer covered her mouth in shock. She felt like she had gotten entangled in a big problem. If what she thought was true, the Quigleys would get into a scandal!Meanwhile, James seemed unwilling to explain himself. Howeve

Her question stumped Summer. The meaning of love was a philosophical question. No one had ever managed to solve that problem before. Since Summer couldn't explain it to Susanne, she simply answered it in her own words. "Love is when you and someone else are happy and like each other. It's when both of you are willing to put in effort for each other."Summer's answer was very conventional and was what the general public thought about romantic love. Then, Susanne said, "Isn't that right? James and I are happy when we are together. I like him, and I'm willing to do things for him. As such, I believe that I love him romantically."She was spouting nonsense with a smile. It was quite terrifying because Summer was unable to detect any other emotions from her smile. That meant that Susanne genuinely believed that she loved James romantically. There was no way she would listen to what Summer had to say. Besides, if someone hid their emotions underneath a smile, it meant that their

The gang of children had looked at James with hostility. Meanwhile, James had panicked and seemed to realize his mistake. He had immediately thrown the strawberries on the ground and explained weakly, "We didn't do anything… We didn't steal those strawberries.""You stole our strawberries! My father owns this strawberry field. You plucked them without his permission, so you're a thief!" The leader of the group of boys had been very angry. He had waved a stick around, looking as if he had been about to hit James. It had seemed as if the group of boys were about to attack James and Susanne. The latter had seemed terrified. She had trembled and held a corner of James' shirt. "What are we going to do, James?""It'll be fine." Despite his words, James had actually been very scared. There had been five boys in front of them. Moreover, they had looked bigger than James. As such, he wouldn't have been able to fight them. However, he had figured that he would be able to escape if
