They Chose Him over Horvarte のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 8

Their blatant defense of Ethan chilled me to the bone.I had grown up with them. For as long as I could remember, Jessica and Megan had been like family to me. They once swore they would treat me well for a lifetime—that no matter who I chose in the future, the other would sincerely support me.But everything changed in our second year of high school, when Ethan transferred to our school.He told me he was a poor student my family had been sponsoring all along, and even brought me sweet potatoes from his village as a token of gratitude.He seemed honest and sincere, so I introduced him to Jessica and Megan. I never expected that from that moment on, everything would change.They shifted all their attention and care to Ethan, repeatedly using our bond as leverage to pressure me into yielding to him.Back then, I was foolish. I still held onto hope in them, and that was how I ended up losing my life.Now, I only wanted to stay as far away from them as possible."Then from now on,

The noisy scene suddenly fell silent.After snapping back to reality, Mrs. Miller and Mrs. Flores rushed off the stage and snatched the acceptance letters from the delivery driver's hands."What's wrong with you?" one of them snapped. "How can you be so slow delivering an acceptance letter? Were you slacking off somewhere?""Everyone else's Horvarte letters arrived ages ago, and you're only bringing it now—you almost delayed my daughter's future! I'm going to file a complaint against you!"Still grumbling, the two of them didn't even bother opening the envelopes before heading straight back toward the host on stage.But Jessica and Megan quickly rushed forward to stop them."Mom, it just arrived. Let's take it home and open it later.""Mom, I want Dad to share in my happiness too. Let's go home and open it together when he's there."They had never dared to tell their families that they had applied to community colleges. They had planned to wait until the admissions results were

"Mrs. Miller, Mrs. Flores, I'm sorry. Jessica and Megan have always treated me like family. I truly see them as sisters and didn't want to be separated from them, which is why I suggested they apply to community college with me. I never expected it would ruin their futures."Seeing the boy they adored so deeply wearing such a wronged, self-sacrificing expression, Jessica and Megan immediately couldn't stand it. They dropped to their knees in front of their mothers as well."Mom, I chose community college willingly. It has nothing to do with Ethan. If you're going to blame anyone, blame me!""I chose it too. I just want to be with Ethan. I don't care about anything else."Mrs. Flores raised her hand and slapped her daughter across the face in fury. "You're out of your mind! Do you even understand that college applications are one of the most important decisions of your entire life?!"Seeing this, Ethan suddenly turned the blame toward me again."Back then, when they applied to com

Even my home address was eventually tracked down by his deranged fans, and every day our front door was left covered in trash.Faced with Ethan's defamation, I decisively chose to report him to the police. I wanted him to understand that the internet is not above the law—lies and slander can be prosecuted anywhere, anytime.While he was still livestreaming his "tragic backstory," the police arrived and took him away. The incident immediately caused a huge uproar online.Some netizens even claimed that my family was so powerful we could command the police at will.I took advantage of the trending attention and posted all the evidence I had collected over this period, along with a formal statement.[The internet is not beyond the reach of the law. I hereby formally state that all of Ethan's recent claims against me online are fabricated and defamatory. I have already reported the matter to the police, and I believe the authorities will soon provide a fair investigation result.][Th
