Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother

Queenie was a genuine northerner. She was petite in stature and resembled a delicate beauty from the Canal Town of Soralia. Nonetheless, she was outspoken and straightforward, possessing righteous

values. She particularly couldn’t tolerate immoral behavior.

After paying, Queenie and I entered the stationery store with a hot dog each.

My

mind was in turmoil throughout the shopping trip. When I went to pay for a pile of items I had picked out, I realized that I had forgotten the painting materials. It was only when Queenie reminded me that!

hurriedly went back to make the selection.

Once we were done shopping

done shopping. I lost interest in leisurely strolling. Holding the materials, I quickly fled

back to the dormitory for fear that Lilac might discover that I knew her secret.

In a fluster, I sent Colin a WhatsApp message, “Colin, I just saw them going to a hotel. Should we catch

them in action?”

Colin replied almost instantly. “Art isn’t suitable for you. You should transfer to the police academy.”

He could’ve just replied with a simple no. Why suggest a course transfer? Colin was really good at hurting others without using vulgar words.

Speechless, I tossed my phone to the side and reluctantly went to sleep.

Right before falling asleep, it suddenly dawned on me that Lilac wasn’t afraid of being caught seeing two guys at the same time. So, as a mere witness, why should I bother? I wasn’t the one cheating.

I hadn’t done anything wrong. What was there to be afraid of?

More importantly, I couldn’t figure out why Lilac was being so open about her affair. Wasn’t she afraid

that I would tell Felix?

Besides, Colin was also studying at Lincoln University, which she must know about. Was she not worried

about him finding out?

Or had she simply thrown caution to the wind and stopped caring? Was her audacity limitless?

On one hand, Shawn was tall and imposing. He had good looks and a wild charm that girls found attractive. On the other hand, in terms of appearance alone, Felix was undoubtedly more outstanding

than Shawn.

What was Lilac thinking by cheating on Felix?

Wasn’t the love between childhood sweethearts supposed to be better than a fairy–tale romance? How

come, when it came to Lilac, it looked so disappointing?

Anyway, I couldn’t understand.

The next day, Queenie and I went to the university cafeteria for lunch. The moment we entered, I saw Lilac and Shawn sitting together, feeding each other affectionately.

Since Colin’s return, he had been taking care of me diligently. I rarely ate in the cafeteria because most of the time, I would eat out with him or he would order takeout to be delivered to my dormitory.

This time, Colin had something to do outside the campus and couldn’t be back until the evening. That didn’t stop him from wanting to order takeout for me, but I had to decline because I planned to eat out

with Queenie.

In hindsight, I would have preferred to wait in the dormitory for Colin’s takeout rather than endure the suffering of having to witness the present scene.

Lilac’s eyes were particularly sharp. As soon as she saw me approaching, she distanced herself from Shawn. She waved and invited me to join them for a meal.

I couldn’t be bothered and decided to ignore her. But this girl was truly asking for trouble. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

“Luna, Felix is worried about me being alone here and specifically asked you to take care of me. Is this how you do that? I haven’t seen you for a few days, let alone a phone call. Poor Felix treats you as a

friend, yet you act differently behind his back. How nasty.

I didn’t want to confront her at first. If she didn’t provoke me, I would pretend not to know anything. After all, Felix was not a fool; he would discover the truth sooner or later. Even if he didn’t, spending a lifetime with the woman he loved might be another kind of happiness.

However, Lilac had no sense of propriety and had dug her own grave.

Now that she had started it, it would be a shame not to take the chance and fire back. And since she was practically offering herself up, I wouldn’t stop her.

“Act differently behind his back? Well, some people look pure at the front, but who knows what’s going on at the back? Even I feel embarrassed to say it out loud.” I shrugged, purposely being vague and leaving the rest for her to figure out.
