I wish it were you のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1651 - チャプター 1660

When Ryan asked the question, his heart was in his throat.From Auntie’s account, he was increasingly certain that her daughter was, in fact, his sister.Though there were still a few things he couldn’t quite figure out, too many clues were lining up—The name, the appearance, the background…If he could just confirm how old Naomi was when she came to live with Auntie—or the exact year she arrived—he’d be able to almost certainly determine whether or not she was his sister.Auntie was a bit surprised by his question, but perhaps sensing how tense he was, she didn’t press him further and directly answered.She told him the exact year, month, and day Naomi came to their home. Since they didn’t know her actual birthday, they had marked that day as her birthday—so she remembered it clearly.As for Naomi’s age when she arrived, Auntie only knew she was around ten years old, though she couldn’t say for certain since Seraphina’s parents never told her.Ryan took a deep breath after hearing t

Most of the afternoon was spent reading through the thick journal left by her father. By the time Seraphina and the young master finished, the sky outside had already turned to dusk.The warm glow of the setting sun spilled into the house, bathing everything in a soft amber light. Seraphina sat quietly in the chair by her father's desk, imagining what he might have looked like as he wrote those entries. Tears welled up in her eyes again.The young master stood behind her by the tall window, watching her with tender eyes. He came over and gently wiped away her tears.She wrapped her arms around his waist. Neither of them said a word, but at that moment, they understood each other more deeply than ever before.Reading her father’s diary had answered nearly all the questions that had haunted them. The regrets they could never let go of were finally, gently, laid to rest.Seraphina gained a whole new understanding of her parents—of every decision they made. And she came to know more about

The sister he once thought was long gone now stood alive and well before him. The joy in Ryan’s heart was beyond words.But Naomi’s reaction left him a little disappointed.This wasn’t the heartfelt reunion between siblings that he had envisioned.He had thought it would be more emotional—that even if his sister had lost her memory, hearing about the past might still stir something deep inside her.He’d hoped, at the very least, to hear her call him “Brother.”But the way things were playing out… it felt more like a one-sided wishful fantasy.Between them now stood a mountain—an unfamiliar distance that felt unnatural for people once so close.Naomi, for her part, was being polite. That was all. Deep down, she hadn’t really accepted this suddenly appearing “brother.” She only sat there quietly and listened because she was well-mannered.Even when she looked through the DNA report—though clearly finding it absurd—she didn’t make a scene. She just looked at it a few more times with disb

Jax turned to glance at her, unsure whether she truly realized her mistake or was just apologizing for the sake of it. He said lightly, “If you think you were wrong, tell me. I’m listening.”Naomi kept her gaze on the window, paused for a moment, then said, “I know you were upset... I’ll be more mindful in the future.”Jax responded with a simple “mm” and continued driving in silence.Missing the past, loving deeply—those weren’t really sins. In some ways, they were even touching.But for him, the current boyfriend, it was far from moving—it was maddening.Of course, Jax didn’t expect her to completely forget the past. He just hoped that when she was with him, she could focus more on the present—on him.At the end of the day, maybe their feelings for each other just weren’t deep enough yet. At least, he hadn’t truly entered her heart…Honestly, he hadn’t fallen for her at first sight either. He’d seen her flaws and was trying to cultivate feelings for her.And since he had agreed to a

Not long after, footsteps echoed in the hallway, accompanied by a man's voice:"Careful, careful, miss."Naomi replied quickly, "I'm fine, really. You can head back now!"No need to ask—she'd once again troubled a property management staff member to help escort her upstairs.Jax adjusted his sitting posture. Since his current position didn’t give him a direct view of the door, he quickly shifted to a single-seater sofa, angling it toward the entrance. He then assumed a casual, leisurely pose, ready to watch Naomi stumble in and panic.However...Things rarely go as planned.As soon as Naomi entered, she kicked off her shoes and bolted barefoot toward the study—didn’t even bother turning on the lights.That short dash was like an obstacle course for her. She bumped her hip into the edge of a cabinet, knocked a hanging picture askew with her hand, and even kicked Jax’s potted plant—an old bonsai he’d been nurturing for ten years.Jax winced at the pain (for the plant) but remained seate
