Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother
Chapter 377

Chapter 377

Queenie and Zara often called to comfort me. However, their comfort seemed meaningless in

my case.

As time passed, they realized it was pointless and stopped. They only encouraged me to keep going rather than forcing myself to do things I didn’t want.

One day, I was so depressed that I hid in the kitchen and cried softly. Colin embraced and kissed me.

He said, “Lulu, you can leave and not return. I am the one who owes Felix. I’ll accompany him forever. The world is big. There will always be another guy who will love you, protect you, and give you a stable life.

“You’re a good person. Don’t waste your whole life on my family. Leave us and live your life well. As long as you’re happy, I’ll be happy as well.”

That day, I got angry with him for the first time and slapped him.

“Colin White, you bastard! Do you think I’m heartless? You gave me the best love in the world!

How could I fall in love with someone else?

“Isn’t it just suffering? We can get through it together! I’m not afraid. What are you afraid of? I’m just afraid that you don’t want me. The world without you is hell!”

I stroked Colin’s cheek, which had reddened because of my slap.

With tears in his eyes, he held my hand and placed it on his chest. He promised, “Luna, I’ll never let you down.”

His promise was enough. I had nothing else to ask for. It was the promise I wanted most, and I had already gotten it.

The three of us were struggling in misery.

Colin had lost a great deal of weight. He was upbeat yet gaunt, I watched videos to learn how to make soup to nourish him. I wanted him to be healthy and happy.

Even if we couldn’t be together, we were there for each other and knew how the other was doing.

He did that as well. He would do his utmost to augment my health whenever he was free. He claimed I was so skinny that my face only had two eyes. I told him a person with only two eyes was a monster. Then, I made a funny face to cheer him up.

After a month, Jinovy’s midsummer came. Flowers bloomed along the street, and the college

was bustling.

I worked hard to shift my mindset and dedicated all my free time to painting. Eventually, I submitted a satisfactory artwork to Professor King.

After a lecture, I hurried out, but Helen stopped me in the corridor.

She hadn’t been back to the apartment lately, and we hadn’t seen each other in over a week. I had contacted her twice to ask if anything was wrong, but she vaguely said she was fine. I reminded her to call me if anything happened and stopped bothering her.

She had her life while I had mine. As friends, we only needed to be present during crucial times. There was no need to cling together as we were in an easy friendship.

When I saw her today, I found she was different from before. She looked more chubby, and her beautiful eyes gleamed with happiness.

Happiness. It was such a magical word. Only Matthew could make Helen happy.

“What is going on? Have your wishes come true?” I was in a rare good mood and decided to

tease her.

She nudged me shyly. “No. But Matt is much nicer to me. He stayed with me on my birthday yesterday.”

I remembered the snapshot she shared on WhatsApp stories last night. It was a beautiful fruitcake with two hands clasped together next to it.

At that time, I wondered if the bigger hand was Matthew’s, but I didn’t dare ask. After hearing Helen’s words, I was sure that it was him.
