Semua Bab Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother : Bab 1021 - Bab 1030

The cute man next to me raised his brows and smirked. It was an enigmatic smirk. I dragged Lulu with me and left. Wherever Chris was, it felt suffocating. After five years, I realized that Chris wasn't that essential in my life and that it was easy to forget him.It even was easy to move on from the whole relationship. Why was that? Back then, I was head over heels for him. Why was one little incident all it took to destroy the feelings I had for him?Perhaps what destroyed the feelings wasn't that incident but the indifference he showed toward me and this relationship. Perhaps in my heart, I had already given up on this relationship. What happened that day was the straw that broke the camel's back. Perhaps the relationship was already dead.Chris didn't see my point. He gave chase and tried to drag me, but Lulu swatted his hand away. Lulu was my best friend. She was very protective, so she inserted herself before me when she saw I was in danger. "Mr. Moyer, you've broken up with

"If my man can be stolen away, that just means he was never mine to begin with. If my man and I are meant to be together, no one can take him away. So, I'm not worried at all. I just want you to save money. I have enough space for you here, so why spend money on rent?" Lulu continued to persuade me.I knew she was worried that I'd feel lonely if I stayed outside. She wanted to keep me company. But I needed to grow up eventually. Yesterday, Zachary called me and said that it was difficult to make a living in Jinovy and that going back to our hometown might be the better option.But everything in Southsville reminded me of Chris. I didn't want to think about him. Besides, like what Lulu had said, there were more opportunities in Jinovy than in Southsville. Hence, I decided to stay. A new job is the perfect way to start a new journey.I started learning martial arts when I was five, and I had been practicing it for nearly 20 years. I had won many awards too. I was confident enough to

"Don't say that, Zara. I know I made a mistake in the past. I let you down. But I didn't do it on purpose. Faye and I grew up together. When we played house, she was my wife. I thought I was in love with her, so whenever I had to choose something, I always chose her."But after you left me and I began to date her, I realized that she wasn't the person in my memory. I would miss you so much at night. I was so drunk one day that I called you a million times, hoping that you'd come to pick me up. But none of my calls went through. None."Whether you believe it or not, Zara, that was my first true heartbreak. I made a mistake in the past, and I don't expect you to forgive me. But please give me the chance to redeem myself. I'll love you with my heart."Don't you want to travel? I can book the plane tickets now. We'll fly tomorrow, okay?"For some reason, Chris turned emotional, and his eyes turned glossy. They were as beautiful as ever, but I couldn't see myself in them. His emotional

Chris' fearful and avoidant gaze told me that he was afraid of speaking his mind. It was not that he couldn't. In other words, he was afraid of Winston. I couldn't help but feel even more curious about Winston's identity."This is between me and my girlfriend. Stay out of it," warned Chris.Winston raised his brows and asked me coldly, "Are you his girlfriend?"I shook my head violently and denied it, "Not at all. We broke up more than six months ago. We're strangers now. He's lying. Don't trust him. He's trying to harass me. That's right, harass."Winston grinned, and light sparkled in his eyes. "Did you hear that? What else do you have to say?"Chris stood up. He was irritated and mad. He glared at Winston as if he wanted to kill him with his intense gaze. Winston put both hands in his pockets nonchalantly and walked a few steps toward Chris. While he was lanky and young, he had an intimidating aura around him.As he advanced, Chris backed off until he turned around and ran awa

I declined his help, of course. It was about to rain that day. Plus, asking a man in a suit and slacks to pick up trash with a trash bag might affect his personal image. We weren't friends, so I didn't want to bother him. I thought it was just a chance encounter and that I wouldn't meet him again.But fate had another plan. What would happen would happen—there was no use rushing it. Shortly after that day, I was walking home under my umbrella on a rainy day. A speeding car blitzed past a puddle, drenching my sportswear.I had begged Zachary for the longest time until he agreed to buy it for me. It was my first time wearing it, and it was all dirty because of the puddle water. I was so mad that I ran after the car to demand compensation. Alas, humans could not outrun a vehicle.Tired, I threw away my umbrella and caught my breath with both hands on my knees. I cursed at that speedy vehicle. Then, he appeared again. His umbrella shielded me from the rain as he looked at me from above.
