Alle Kapitel von When My Family Chose Him: Kapitel 1 – Kapitel 10

The room was completely silent.My girlfriend, Vivian Samper, had a dark look on her face. She forcefully shook off my hand and coldly demanded, "Why did you come back?"I froze on the spot after hearing that and had no idea what to say.My mother, Sophia Kramer, forced a smile after a long pause and stepped forward to take my hand."It's okay. I'll clean up another room for you. Come out and eat something first."Confused, I asked directly, "Why do you need to clean up another room?"When I turned around, I realized the room that used to belong to me looked completely different from how I remembered it."Can't we just clean up this room?"My older sister, Alice Kramer, frowned deeply and said in a low voice, "Listen to Mom. Let's eat first."They led me to the dining table. The moment I saw all the food spread across it, I blurted out, "Mom, I hate cilantro. Why does every dish have cilantro in it?"I had always hated cilantro. In the past, my family would leave it out whenever they c

I stood nervously beside the table, watching Charlotte eat the tacos.But suddenly, she flipped the entire table over.Looking at the tacos scattered across the floor, I could barely hold back my tears.Charlotte spat out the taco and pointed at me with disgust. "Stop blindly copying Frost!"She crazily stomped the tacos into pieces. Her eyes were red, and she looked like she was on the verge of breaking down."Frost left because of you! I want Frost back!"She angrily shoved me, causing the wound on my hand to split open again and start bleeding.But my heart hurt even more than the injury.Everyone hurried over to stop the argument.Vivian grabbed my hand and led me back to my room.After taking out the first-aid kit, she carefully cleaned my wound.I softly called her name, "Vivian."She looked up at me.Without realizing it, we had moved so close that our bodies were pressed together.Vivian's gaze grew unfocused, and there was emotion in her eyes.But just as I was about to lean i

But in the end, I had overestimated myself.After finishing the makeup, I could clearly see the disgust in their eyes.Alice asked without thinking, "Why did you do your makeup like that?""Alice, I don't even know how to put on regular makeup. Don't make things harder for me."The moment I finished speaking, Charlotte blurted out,"It looks terrible!"I had never worn makeup before.I was a man. I had no interest in makeup and never needed it.Arthur, Sophia, Alice, and Charlotte had always praised my looks."Maverick is so handsome. He looks great even without makeup!"The memory made my chest ache. Filled with resentment, I went to the comic convention anyway.When I came back from the comic convention, I pushed open the door at home wearily.Immediately, the strong smell of alcohol made me frown.Everyone was sitting around the dining table drinking.After getting completely drunk, the masks they always wore finally fell away.Alice, who had cared for me since childhood, now glared

After getting out of the car, I walked along the street.As I passed a narrow alley, I faintly heard a child crying inside.Thinking someone might need help, I stepped in with good intentions.But when I walked in, the alley was empty. There was only a small recorder placed on the ground, playing a looped recording of a crying child.That was when I realized something was wrong.Too late.A cloth suddenly covered my face from behind.I smelled a sharp, strange scent.Within seconds, my vision went dark, and I collapsed to the ground.I had been kidnapped.In my blurry state of consciousness, I slowly woke up and heard the kidnappers calling my family to demand ransom.“I want at least 500,000 dollars!”The leader of the kidnappers spoke harshly. On the other end of the line, there was a long silence.Then Arthur's voice came through, cold and unconcerned.“What is he trying to pull now? We only told him to move out, and now he's faking a kidnapping?”They didn't believe I had really be

I had just finished arranging everything when Charlotte suddenly burst into the room.The moment she realized I wasn't wearing the clothes they had prepared for me, she completely exploded.She rushed over and grabbed my throat with both hands. In a hysterical voice, she screamed, "Can't you give Frost back to me? I only want Frost as my brother! I don't want to see a faker like you!"Breathing became harder and harder. It felt as if I was about to suffocate. Even so, I forced myself to endure it and stared at her. "Have you forgotten how good I was to you when you were little?"But Charlotte had completely lost her mind. She only tightened her grip around my neck.In the end, I couldn't hold on any longer. Everything went black as I collapsed to the floor.Only after seeing me lose consciousness did Charlotte slowly come back to her senses.She fell weakly to the ground, her voice trembling."Are... are you okay? Stop pretending! Wake up right now! I didn't mean to..."At that moment,
