Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother Chapter 198
Matthew and Helen played a pivotal role in my resounding victory. They were the reason why the debacle concluded that quickly."Are you sure?" Colin squinted his eyes dubiously."Hehe, I might have exaggerated the whole thing a bit. Matthew came, and let's just say that an explanation from him was a hundred times more effective than anything I could say.""I see. Either way, always prioritize your safety. Give me some time. It'll be over soon."I was so caught up in my overconfidence that I didn't hear what Colin said in the end.After we hung up, Helen, who was about to fall asleep, propped her head up on one elbow and stared at me."Shouldn't you go to sleep? It's eerie to stare at me like this when it's so late at night."Helen pursed her lips as if she had just found something amusing. "Lulu, you like Colin, don't you?""Of course, I do. He's my friend. I love him."She shook her head. "I'm not talking about that kind of love. When you were talking to him, your eyes sparkl

When I heard that Felix had intercepted Matthew's love letters for me, I was so mad that I went to his house to argue with him. I gave Felix an earful and refused to talk to him for a very long time.Now I knew I had gotten angry for the wrong reason. He was just trying to protect me.But he could have warned me. If I had known Brenda was this unreasonable, I would have stayed away from Matthew. The whole debacle wouldn't have transpired."I know what you're thinking. But back then, you glared at me as if I was your arch-nemesis. I was sure you wouldn't believe me. You might even think that I was plotting something and resent me further."Felix was right. I knew I might not have believed him even if he had told me. Still, this wasn't a valid excuse to keep everything from me.I knew he wouldn't believe me if I told him about what Lilac had done. But I did it nonetheless. Several times too. Couldn't he do what I did?Regardless, I decided to forgive him since he intercepted the le

I deleted and recomposed my reply many times. In the end, I only sent out one word, "Goodnight."Matthew didn't send me more text messages. I stared at my phone screen until it automatically switched off.While I couldn't return Matthew's feelings, hurting him was not my intention. Yet he was hurt both mentally and physically after what had happened.His birthday fell on Sunday. Helen called and asked if I wanted to attend his birthday party. She told me that his childhood friends would be there to celebrate the occasion. None of his family would be there.For a moment, I was enticed. I wanted to be there to apologize to him. Regardless of what his family had done to me, I couldn't deny that he had given me his heart.But as I thought further, I was sure that Matthew had endured much of the grief in the past month. The answer I had given him that night must have plunged him into the depth of despair. Soon enough, he would begin healing and move on.Attending his birthday party mi

"Are you that oblivious, or is this your way of mocking my pathetic self? I slept with Matthew. I offered myself. What you see here are not wounds; they're hickies!" Helen seethed. I saw loneliness and rage in her eyes.I slumped onto my bed, unable to process the news."Oh? Does it sting now that Matthew and I are together?" Helen looked at me with the corners of her eyes. The contempt and sadness in her eyes made her look extra pitiable."No, you're mistaken, Helen. I just… feel sorry for you.""He kept calling your name when he was with me until he lost his voice. And when he realized what he had done, he sobbed loudly. He said there was no hope anymore, that he was no longer pure."Tears suddenly fell from Helen's eyes, rolling down her dainty cheeks. She cried despondently, "Why? How could he do this to me? He was sleeping with me yet he was thinking of you. Why? Why?"Matthew's text in the middle of the night came to my mind. I now understood why he apologized to me.I did

Thinking that I was about to lose Helen as a friend, I was upset for the next few days.One afternoon, the sky was gloomy, and it was drizzling.My phone suddenly rang when I was painting the draft I drew.I put down my brush and washed off the paint on my hand. My face brightened when I saw the caller.Colin, who had been MIA for the past few days, was video-calling me."Colin! You haven't replied to my messages or picked up your phone in the past few days. I almost went to the police to file a missing person's report!"Colin's husky laughter traveled into my ears, sending shockwaves through my body."Lulu, come down."I looked outside the window. The drizzle had stopped, and the sky had turned blue."Just come down. I have a surprise for you."I grabbed whatever jacket I could find and put it on. Then, I rushed downstairs.The air purified by the drizzle felt extra fresh. Under a lush parasol tea, an unignorable presence came into my vision.In the shade stood Colin's tal

Colin tilted his head to look at me with a smile, listening to me yap about everything like an excited girl. Tenderness threatened to overflow from his starry eyes.I was 22 years old. I was an adult now. In front of my classmates and lecturers, I behaved like a gentle, elegant woman. Some of my juniors even followed me around just to learn my mannerisms.Unbeknownst to them, I behaved like a spoiled fool in front of Colin.To our surprise, we ran into Felix.His eyes fell on Colin's and my interlocked fingers. Subconsciously, I tried to withdraw my hand, but Colin wouldn't let me go. He grabbed my hand tightly as we walked toward Felix."Hey, Colin," greeted Felix."Hey, have you eaten? Do you want to join us?"Felix hesitated for a while. He then took out his phone to send a quick text before joining us.Jinovy was way more prosperous than Southsville. I found many high-end restaurants here, and out of them, Colin picked a seafood restaurant.The establishment was well-decor

Felix was surprised to see Lilac outside. He grabbed his phone and left immediately.I was so annoyed by Lilac that I blurted out something rude, "Felix, let's not hang out again."He replied with his silent silhouette. Then, he left."It's over. Finally," said Colin as he turned to me, a glass in his hand."Tsk, it already ended a long time ago. It was over when he called me shameless and asked me to stay away from him that Thanksgiving.""So what's your plan now?""I'll make myself available and make many friends." I placed my palm above my brows while pretending to scan my surroundings. Then, my eyes lingered on Colin. "Then, I'll settle down with someone I like and who likes me back."Colin's hand froze mid-raising his glass. He turned to face me, his eyes glimmering. Then, with a smile, he said, "Sure."Oh, that smile. That lethal smile! My heart skipped a beat.Colin was hired by Jesselton College to be a lecturer. It was his first day, so he was too busy to hang out wit

Felix's lanky frame faltered, and a deep sense of sadness filled his eyes. It wasn't until I finished my sentence that I realized I had returned the exact same words he told me back then.But why was he sad? Forget about the past—we were young and naive back then. He was now dating Lilac. Why was he hurt by what I said?Because he cared about me? No way. Back then, he viewed me as an eyesore, a pest.And more importantly, I couldn't care less if he was upset or not.They said time could heal everything. And indeed, I had completely moved on from the pain my tragic past brought me.Felix was now a stranger in my life.The pain he had once inflicted on me and the tears I had once shed were nothing but part of my growth.That was all."If there's nothing else, goodbye. And quit bothering me." Turning, I left angrily."Stay, Lulu," Felix called out. He sounded vulnerable and sincere."Just spit it out now. I don't have time for you. You're getting on my nerves."He was irritat

Luna furiously scolded me, asserting that I didn't deserve Queenie's love and that Queenie had been blind to my true colors all those years. Driven mad by desperation, I chased after Queenie, determined to tell her I was wrong and plead for another chance to prove myself. However, the young man intervened, delivering a swift and punishing combination of punches and kicks that knocked me to the ground. Humiliated, I struggled to get up and fight back, unwilling to lose to another man.Despite his youthful appearance, the look in his eyes as he glanced at Queenie was undeniable. It was a blend of love, desire, and possessiveness only a man could understand.I was consumed by the thought that he wasn't worthy of my precious Queenie's love.Nevertheless, my body felt heavy and powerless. It was as if the strength had been drained from me. The blows rained down on me, bringing with them a strange sense of relief amidst the pain. Part of me yearned for him to kick me harder, inflict

I wanted nothing more than to run to Queenie, to hold her tightly and tell her how much I missed her during those endless days apart. I wanted to kiss her deeply and feel the warmth of her embrace. I called out, "Queenie, I'm here."Seeing me seemed to jolt Queenie from her joyous state, replacing it with a vacant expression. Mere moments before, she had been smiling brightly, her eyes aglow with happiness. Now, she appeared lost, her initial elation dissipating into a blank, unresponsive gaze.I couldn't understand why she had turned so distant upon seeing me. The love and joy that once shone in her eyes were nowhere to be found. As I observed her, I wondered if our time apart had caused her to forget. Or perhaps the events of the past had wounded her so profoundly that she had stopped waiting for me.The thoughts terrified me, and I dared not ask for fear of confirming my suspicions. All I wanted was to hold her, kiss her, and tell her how much I missed her. Yet, it seemed tha

I had no interest in Daniela's pregnancy, so I kicked her out of the house. My friends came to console me, each expressing their sympathies with a drink because they didn't know how else to comfort me.The money I had sent to Queenie's account was quickly returned as the account had been closed. Her phone number became unreachable, and when I sought her at her parents' home, I found the elderly couple waiting anxiously for their daughter's return. I lost not only Queenie but any connection to her. I grew disinterested in everything, neglecting my company and spending my days in a drunken haze.Then, my uncle came. We drank through the night as he shared tales of his hardships, the painful memories of his mother, and the years he spent alone, suffering.He said, "Everyone has their fate, Flynn. And choosing one thing often means losing another. Just as you've chosen to fight for the family business, you've sacrificed a part of yourself. But you must rise and fight me with all you'v

Queenie would then jump off the cliff, leaving me to jolt awake in a cold sweat. I endured each twilight in my hopeless vigil, counting down the days.On the 75th day, the door finally unlocked. I stepped outside and realized that this was the neighborhood where Queenie and I lived. All this time, we had been mere yards apart.My mom truly knew how to break a person's spirit. All I had to do was lift my head to see the pomegranate tree planted in our yard.I stumbled toward our home, my wounds screaming as I desperately called for Queenie. But the immaculate house stood eerily silent, echoing my footsteps like thunder.Except for Queenie, every possession remained meticulously in place—the exquisite clothes, expensive jewelry, and designer cosmetics.Queenie was gone, and the thought of losing her drove me into a frenzy.I collapsed in the middle of the room, sobbing uncontrollably. Regret consumed me. I should have never let my family's threats manipulate me and left Queenie to

I clenched my fists, barely resisting the urge to rush over to Queenie's side. All I wanted was to embrace her and whisper assurances that I would protect her, always. But I knew I had no right to do so.My dad's threat hung heavy in my mind, and the stares of Daniela and her mother bore into Queenie like daggers. One wrong move or word and those blades would descend upon Queenie, cutting her to shreds.The pain was unbearable. I felt sorry for Queenie. I was powerless and couldn't help her. With all my heart, I wished for her to stay strong and survive. She deserved better than me. Daniela's mother slapped Queenie, calling her a whore and a homewrecker, accusing her of seducing other people's boyfriends.Queenie stood rigidly, her gaze filled with humiliation. Her lips trembled, and the light in her eyes gradually faded.I winced in agony but held myself together, picking up Daniela and walking away.Countless times afterward, I berated myself for choosing to take Daniela away

We both knew the truth—neither of us could cross the chasm that had formed between our hearts.After that, I went home almost every day. We managed to maintain a semblance of normalcy in our day-to-day lives. We prepared sumptuous dinners and tended to our garden. I even considered adopting a pet to keep Queenie company while I was away.However, no matter how hard we tried, we couldn't rekindle the warmth we had once shared. Queenie hardly smiled anymore. No matter what I did to cheer her up, she would only give a half-hearted smile, her eyes remaining cold and distant.I knew something had transpired during our separation, but she refused to discuss it. My attempts to uncover the truth through private investigators were in vain. Any evidence had been meticulously erased.Eventually, I realized Queenie was simply biding her time, waiting for the moment when she would be forced to relinquish all hope and leave.A month later, my mother joyfully told me that Daniela was pregnant an

I grabbed a brush from the bathroom and scrubbed myself furiously, desperate to wash away the overwhelming sense of filth. Even as the rough bristles tore into my skin, drawing blood and causing searing pain, I felt no closer to feeling clean.My mind was consumed with thoughts of Queenie and the nearly five years we had spent together—the happy moments, the arguments, every single memory.At that moment, I realized I was terrified. Never before had I experienced such abject fear. Knowing Queenie's uncompromising stance on love and fidelity, I knew she would never forgive me once she discovered my transgression.She would undoubtedly turn and leave, heedless of any pleas I might make. I probably wouldn't even have the courage to ask for her forgiveness in the face of her justified anger.I regretted everything. If I had listened to my friends and taken Queenie away from all this, none of this would have happened. But I had hesitated. Even now, I couldn't be certain if my hesitati

Yesterday afternoon, my dad called and demanded that I make a decision within two days, or they would take action.I felt cornered because I genuinely didn't know how to talk to Queenie about this. The mere idea of her packing her belongings and leaving, accompanied by the unspeakable anguish it would inflict upon me, was a burden too heavy to bear.I wasn't sure if I could ever have a semblance of normality in my life again after that.So, I gathered some friends to drink with me. I drank heavily because I had made a decision—a disgraceful, heartless decision. The thought of what I would have to face the next day made life seem hopeless, so I drank even more.Before losing consciousness, I handed my car keys to my assistant, using my last bit of clarity to tell him to take me home no matter what state I was in.Even if it meant returning to the Hayes family's residence, he should not leave me out on the streets. Despite the imminent breakup, I wanted to part ways with Queenie in

My mom proved to be even more ruthless than my dad. She found me, dropped to her knees without a word, and begged me. She reminded me of the years they had spent raising me, pleading that I ensure they wouldn't be left without a sense of security in their old age.In essence, they were pressuring me to abandon everything. I was to pursue money and power for their sake, secure the Hayes family's head position, and ensure our grip on wealth and influence. Their priority was maintaining their luxurious, elevated lifestyle. My happiness, my desires—whether I even wanted those things—meant nothing to them. Sometimes, it felt like I was nothing more than a tool for achieving their ambitions.My dad told me bluntly that he would go after Queenie if I didn't comply. He said, "You're right. I'm incapable of outmaneuvering your uncle. But no matter how incompetent I am, I can easily make Queenie's life in Harveyton unbearable."To be honest, that day was the coldest my heart had ever felt
