Lahat ng Kabanata ng Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother : Kabanata 511 - Kabanata 520

I lifted my head in confusion to look at Colin. Was he inviting me to come with him? His starry eyes gazed at me in sincerity, and I smirked.Now this was the person whom I'd love forever. Life was a long journey. There would be times when he felt lost or disoriented, but he would never be astray. He would give me a sense of security whenever I wanted it.The doctor we were consulting was Dr. Zayne, who used to treat Felix. He was tall and slightly chubby as his lids fluttered in earnestness. The moment we met him, the smile never left his face. He was very easygoing and friendly. After examining the wound, Dr. Zayne scrutinized the X-ray scans for a very long while and read through the medical report from Lagado. The whole process took nearly 40 minutes. In the end, he said that the surgery was a huge success and that the nerves in her limbs were fine.However, she needed to let her nerves heal properly and attend physiotherapy.When Dr. Zayne was going through the materials, hi

After a small discussion, we decided to split up. Jasmine's men would head to the hotel to retrieve her luggage while Colin and I would bring her to the rehab center to check in. We had to settle the hospital bill too, so as Colin ushered Jasmine to her ward, I went to the counter to pay.For some reason, there were a lot of people at the counter. It took me 15 minutes to complete the admission process, and I ran to the ward with the receipt.Jasmine's ward was on the first floor. It was on the right, facing the sun. It had a lot of natural light, and outside, there was a small garden. One could admire the flowers by standing next to the window. I liked the location.I pushed the door and entered a vast room. There was a bed for the patient and another bed for visitors. I saw a couch, a television, a fridge, many other amenities, a private bathroom, and a kitchen. It looked like a cozy apartment.Huh? Where did they go? There was no one in the ward. I looked around carefully, think

"You're cruel. You made a pretty girl cry." I suppressed my jealousy and tried to sound indifferent. But even I wasn't convinced.What was I supposed to do? No woman would not get jealous when another woman confessed to her boyfriend and even asked him for a hug. My reaction was any other woman's reaction in this situation.As for what Colin would do… That was his decision. I couldn't tell him what to do. However, his decision would affect the way I approached our relationship. Jasmine came to take him away. I foresaw that there would be more in the future. I needed reassurance from him.He squeezed my palm and turned to me. "Yeah, I can't make a girl cry. Maybe I'll say yes to her?"What the heck? I immediately fought back, saying, "If you hug her, I'll… I'll…""What will you do?" Colin glanced at me with a cheeky grin. He was waiting for me to finish my sentence."I'll break your leg!" I hollered, trying to make my threat as scary as possible.Perhaps I was too loud. Colin ten

I didn't walk in on my tip-toes, so I was sure that he heard me. I stood next to him, and my shadow was slightly above his shoes. There was no way he didn't notice my obvious presence. That said, he sat upright and focused on his work. He wasn't distracted at all.I admired his work for a while before returning to my seat. I flipped over the cover and finished up Rise of Glory, most of which I had completed before I returned to Southsville.It was a painting with a strong, dimensional presence. Other than the women, there were lakes, corridors, houses, and rocks—everything. I composed the whole framework after I studied Tudor paintings and their cultural-sociological settings.To accentuate the aesthetics, I used a different kind of drawing technique so that the details could pop out. The person in charge of Dreamlight placed extra emphasis on this painting as it would be displayed in the showcase room. That was why the timing was a bit rushed.Returning to Southsville took a few d

Colin liked lighter food. He didn't like greasy food at all. That small plate of pasta he was eating was just the excuse he used to put himself between Winston and me. Otherwise, he wouldn't even have touched it at all.That said, he only took two bites before he stopped eating. He already had dinner, so he was full. He just wanted to sit between Winston and me. In other words, he didn't want Winston and me to hang out alone.I was surprised that the reliable Colin would pull off something childish like this. But I could understand why he did that. Winston wasn't dumb either. As a man, he knew what Colin was doing to him. And he wasn't too pleased to be on the receiving end.After all, he did go out to buy me a sumptuous meal. But now, the mood was ruined because of Colin. I ate a lot of food until I felt bloated. Then, I returned to my easel stand to continue painting.When I was done, the moon and the stars had already come out to greet me. I looked at my phone and saw that it wa
