Colin grabbed my hand and kissed it with passion and desire. As he was too exhausted, he didn't do anything further."If you're tired, go home and take a nap. You don't have to accompany me.""It's inconvenient.""Inconvenient?" I asked him in confusion.He stroked my face and said nothing. He only gave me a wry, charming smile.After thinking for a while, I realized that Aunt Laura was most likely not at home. Andrew had something to do at college and couldn't return on time. So, Colin found it inconvenient to be alone with Queenie.She would live her own life in the future. For her happiness, we should give her and Andrew space to get along.Colin and I had been dating for a long time, but we'd always had troubles. Until now, we had only spent a few days together.I couldn't help but recall what he suggested that day about finding a new house. Initially, I assumed it was unnecessary. Now that I thought about it, living somewhere else would be more convenient for us."We can
I never thought Queenie would feel inferior due to her failed relationship and abortion. The reason she rejected Andrew was most likely her fear of his prestigious family.Flynn, who came from a prestigious family, hurt her so thoroughly. Andrew's family background was far higher than that of the Hayes family. She might think that as the daughter of an ordinary family, she couldn't integrate into his.Overall, she lacked confidence in her future with Andrew. She'd been dating Flynn for five years, but things had ended horribly. Not to mention Andrew, who was three years younger than her and from a wealthier family.She appeared soft yet was firm. Ever since she came out of her relationship with Flynn, she had closed herself off.She didn't want to get hurt again, so she didn't dare to start a new relationship.Andrew stroked her hair helplessly. He smiled lovingly and told her to forget about persuading him. It was his business to pursue her anyway. She was only responsible for en
In the blink of an eye, the semester officially started. I was busy this semester because my classes were tight. Not to mention, I had a Tudor-style project that kept me even busier.The beginning of the semester was also the peak period for painting competitions hosted by famous institutions. Each department would send out contestants.Professor King had taken on a new task. He had no time to guide students from our department to participate in the competition. So, he decided to assign me this important task. He even talked with me about it in his office.There were many young and promising lecturers in the college. I could tell he assigned the task to a graduate student like me because he intended to train me.However, my courses were a bit tight. More than half of the Tudor-style project remained unfinished. I didn't have enough time. I had to think about it before deciding whether to accept it.Before I left his office, I noticed his disappointment. I could only shy away and f
Ironically, when Felix showed his panic, his lips were still stained with Lilac's lipstick.I never imagined I would see such a scene in my lifetime. At that moment, I was stunned and felt overwhelmingly sick.Lilac nearly ruined Felix. However, he could still kiss her! What kind of demonic scene was that?I was astonished when I saw that. Not because I had inappropriate feelings for Felix but because I thought he was shameful. He wasn't deserving of my, Colin's, or our two families' concerns.He knew what disgusting things she had done, but he still had the mood to go on a date with her. I couldn't tell what he was thinking.If I had known that, I wouldn't have cared about him. It would be better to let him ruin himself than to contaminate my eyes.Was he treating himself as trash? We had worked so hard to get him out of the abyss. How could he have ruined our goodwill like that?Well, perhaps we didn't matter to him. None of us considered asking him to be grateful either, but
"Hmm, I got it. You can go back now." I shrugged nonchalantly. It was a pity that I couldn't relax throughout the break."L-Lulu, can you pretend you didn't see anything?" Felix's eyes were full of pleading."I won't tell others, but I won't hide it from Colin."He took a few steps back dejectedly with an unreadable expression.Wasn't Lilac the one who had betrayed him? Others wouldn't stop him since he was willing to be with her again. They would only watch the fun and make some nasty jokes. Why did he show this expression to me? Did he not dare to disclose what he had done?He was a shame to men. He had become so rotten that even God couldn't save him.I walked far away and heard Felix ask me from behind, "Lulu, will you hate me because of that?"I thought about it before responding, "It has nothing to do with me."Back in the classroom, I found a quiet corner to sit down and called Colin. I told him what I had just witnessed.After all, Felix was Colin's biological brother.
Her words annoyed me.When did Lilac see me and Felix getting closer? He was only rotten trash. I never wanted to accept him.She picked up trash and treated him like a treasure. She even appeared proud to be with him.The word abandoned was rather offensive. It was more proper to use it on her.Felix and I had never started a relationship. I had my beloved Colin by my side. Nobody ever abandoned me.I came to a halt, turned around, and gazed at her with disdain. I sneered as I tried to piss her off. "There is indeed an abandoned woman. You know exactly who she is. Do you think being abandoned once isn't enough, and you wish to be abandoned a second time?"Oh, no, it should be a third time or many times. I admire you. After all, you're born shameless."Lilac flushed swiftly, her eyes revealing her wrath. She then rushed toward me angrily as if she wanted to tear me apart. The hatred in her eyes was strong.How did I get into such a mess with this insane woman? Why did I have to
Winston was standing a few steps in front of me when he said that.He had a perfect appearance and a bright smile. He appeared to have accomplished something.His gaze was like an eagle's when it saw its prey, with a glimmer of determination.I couldn't help but wonder whether I did something wrong or said something ambiguous that caused him to misunderstand me. Why did he look at me that way?When I reached the gate, I noticed the delivery man on a motorcycle was about to call me. After signing, I brought the takeout upstairs.Queenie came out of the room when she heard me open the door. After she helped me place the food, I realized the house was quiet. It turned out Andrew hadn't come over.During this period, I felt as if he were living in my house, and his presence was particularly loud. It was as if something was missing when he was absent, which made me uncomfortable.Habit was quite scary."Where's Andrew?" I asked casually.Queenie paused. "I don't know.""How dare h
Colin returned late at night. I awoke as his heated body pressed against mine. However, I was so sleepy and tired that I couldn't talk much with him. I only wanted to sleep.He bit my earlobe and kissed me for a while before hugging me tightly and falling asleep.When I woke up the next morning, I was alone. I touched the sheet and found it cold. Colin had been gone for a while, and his scent was no longer in the air.To be honest, I felt a little lost.It was 7:00 am when I finished washing up. As I had no classes in the morning, I intended to practice my cooking skills.I put on my slippers and headed to the kitchen. Then, I saw Queenie serving breakfast. There were two plates of spaghetti, ravioli, and bread rolls on the table."Did you make them?" I took a ravioli and chewed it. Its delicious taste caused me to exclaim with satisfaction."My cooking skills aren't good enough to make all of them.""I think so. Colin must have made such excellent ravioli.""Since you've know
