Facing Luke's pressing questions, I stood with my arms crossed from a distance, my gaze icy as I watched Anna. I was curious how much more she could lie.

Anna explained in a panic, "Luke, the last time I was here, I accidentally broke the picture of you and Chloe. You said it was fine. I couldn't replace a photo of you two, so I just decided to put ours up. You even said it was a nice photo, remember?

"What about all the other things? Have you forgotten? Some of them we bought when we were abroad, and others were souvenirs from Rosbel Island, all gifts you gave me. Did you forget, Luke?"

Her voice dropped to a whisper, tinged with a hint of grievance.

Luke rubbed his temple, as if realizing that the mess they were in now was something he had silently allowed to happen.

And that's when I found out-one year ago, I had taken time off to prepare for a trip to Rosbel Island with him. I had made all the arrangements.

But right before we were supposed to go, he suddenly claimed he had to travel for an important project. Only now did I learn the truth: Luke had taken the plans I prepared and brought Anna to Rosbel Island. He even stayed at the hotel I had booked, visiting the sights I had wanted to see, all with her.

The thought of it disgusted me.

I couldn't throw up but simply felt incredibly upset internally.

How many things have they done behind my back for all these years? I have no idea.

No wonder she had placed all these things here. They were her trophies, her victory badges, and of course, she would display them in the most visible spots to mock me.

Luke rubbed his temple again. "You're just our sister. Don't bring these things up again. Chloe won't be happy if she sees them."

See? Men knew how to set boundaries.

He had gotten used to Anna's flattering obedience, something I could never give him. He enjoyed it, while mocking me for overreacting.

He knew full well what boundaries were, but he simply chose not to respect them.

I stood by the window, reaching out to touch the sunlight. All I could think was ho

had been.

All of this for a selfish, self-centered man who had led me to this point.

pathetic my past self

Tears streaming down Anna's face. She spoke again. "Luke, do you hate me now? I swear, I won't get in between you and Chloe anymore. I'm not asking for much. I just want to be by your side and watch over you. Can't you fulfill such a small request for me?" +10 Free Coins

Haha! A small request.

Her small request had been the thorn that stuck in my heart, the one that had caused me endless pain, bleeding profusely and never letting me rest for a single day.

Luke lacked a solid proof. He looked at her with a cold expression.

"Anna, how old are you?"

Twenty-three.

"Not too young. It's time to settle down and start your own life. You can't keep following me around. You need your own life. We have no blood ties. When you get a boyfriend, people will start talking."

Anna's expression changed, and she stopped crying. "So, Luke, is this your way of drawing a line?"

Luke's voice was firm and deliberate. "Anna, I've thought a lot about this. Because of you, I neglected Chloe's feelings, and that's how we ended up here-Chloe missing. When she comes back, I want to focus on building a life with her.

Anna/stopped pretending, the tears still lingering in her eyes. "And what about me? Was I just a passing fancy for you? Did you never love me, even for a moment?"

I turned away from the window to look at him, genuinely curious about his answer.

Luke gazed at Anna's tear-streaked face, but he didn't respond. Instead, he seemed lost in thought, as if seeing through her to someone else.

"Anna, did you know? Chloe is a very delicate girl. When she was little, even the tiniest caterpillar would make her cry.

Anna stared at him, stunned. "So what?"

"She's afraid of the dark, of thunderstorms, of caterpillars, of snakes. She gets seasick. But even so, when she heard about the earthquake, she resolutely planned to cross the ocean to replace me. She even tried to sneak across the country. She encountered a tsunami and spent days drifting on a piece of wood in the sea. She almost lost her life."

""She didn't

after surviving the storm. I can still remember the expression on her face when I slapped her-disbelief and a chilling sense of hurt.

"But back then, no one stood by her side. Everyone praised you, saying how brave-you were to overcome all the obstacles to be with me. Who cared about her feelings? She didn't cry, but why are you crying now?"

Anna was speechless. "Luke, I didn't know Chloe had to cross the ocean. I came back with you. Maybe she Tost her passport, or maybe she just forgot? Why don't you believe me?"

"Anna, I don't have enough evidence. But my impression is that nine times out of ten, you've been crying and trying to solve problems with tears. Every time you cry, we all forget the truth and try to comfort you, while overlooking the fact that she was the one who suffered.

I owe her too much I don't want to hurt her anymore Anna, let's end it here."

Anna looked at him in a daze, her voice trembling. "Luke, so you never loved me, not even for a moment?"

Luke spoke slowly, each word heavy. "No, the only person I've ever loved is Chloe. From now on, you'll only be a sister to me, Chloe's sister. I won't have any more involvement with you."

*What about our past? We went to Rosbel Island together; we went to the wishing pond, and we tied that red string under the marriage tree. Have you'forgotten all of that?"

"I'm sorry."
