บททั้งหมดของ He Regretted Sending Me to Finishing School: บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 9

My mother died early, leaving my father and me to depend on each other.When I was 16 years old, my father brought home Georgina Campbell and ten-year-old Ethan, telling me, "Mia, meet Georgina and Ethan. From now on, the four of us will be a family."Dad was incredibly busy with work and I spent most of my time alone. I did not resent Dad's relationship with Georgina. In fact, I looked forward to our life as a family of four.Georgina was wonderful to me too, constantly finding new ways to cook delicious meals for me. Even if I mentioned something casually, she would make it for me with her own hands.I was endlessly grateful to have met Georgina, who treated me like her own daughter. I made sure to be twice as good to both Georgina and Ethan. However, for some reason, Ethan remained cold toward me.Georgina told me that Ethan was slow to warm up to people, that things would improve with time, and not to take it to heart.After hearing Georgina's words, I became even more attent

In the darkness, I seemed to return to the past.I was 16 years old when I first met Ethan. I desperately tried to be good to him to warm his heart toward me.However, as Ethan grew older, that naive boy gradually became a head taller than me.I did not know when it happened, but I somehow fell for him completely.I was terrified. How could I have such feelings for my stepbrother?While I was trapped in these emotions and unable to escape, an accident happened to Dad.A drunk truck driver rear-ended his car with tremendous force. Dad, who was sitting in the back seat, died on the spot.During those unbearable days, I was completely lost in a daze, wishing I could follow Dad into the afterlife. However, Georgina knelt before me, crying bitterly. She begged for my forgiveness.She said the driver who hit Dad was Ethan's biological father, Liam Mitchell. If it were not for her and Ethan, Dad would not have died.It turned out that Liam was addicted to gambling. Not only did he be

I did not know how much time passed before I opened my eyes.The strong smell of disinfectant lingered around my nose and mouth, and I looked at the blank white ceiling in confusion.Where was this?Ethan's extremely hoarse voice came from beside me. "You're awake?"I turned my head slightly to look at Ethan. His eyes were full of pain.This man who always cared about being clean and proper had not even shaved his beard. His shirt was wrinkled as if he had suffered some kind of shock.Shock?Who could shock someone as proud as Ethan?My throat tasted metallic and sweet again. I struggled to reach for the water pitcher nearby, but I accidentally knocked it over, and the scalding water spilled onto my hand.When Ethan saw this, he quickly stepped forward and grabbed my hand to examine it.I pulled my hand back and said indifferently, "It's just a minor injury. I'm fine."I'm sorry for worrying you, Mr. Mitchell. It's my fault."Ethan's eyes were terribly red. He said with dif

That evening, Georgina coaxed me to sleep like she used to. She cried with guilt, saying she had thought I had been studying abroad all this year. She also said she would never forgive Ethan and Linda.I hugged her waist tightly and softly called out, "Mom."Georgina's whole body trembled as she held me and cried in grief. "My dear Mia, how can I ever make this up to you?"I wanted to tell her that she did not need to make anything up to me. She loved me, and I knew that. However, I was just too tired.Drowsiness overwhelmed me, and I snuggled tightly in her arms, falling into a deep sleep.When I woke up again, it was already noon the next day.Ethan was keeping watch by my bedside. When he saw me open my eyes, he said ingratiatingly, "Are you feeling better? If you're uncomfortable anywhere, tell me and I'll call the doctor."I was somewhat dazed. "Didn't I just return from abroad? I sat on the plane too long and my body couldn't handle it, so I slept. Why would we need to bot
