Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother -
Chapter 431
Chapter 431
Upon hearing my voice, Colin’s body stiffened. He turned around in disbelief. When he saw
me, his body shuddered. Panic rushed to his eyes. He wanted to say something, and his feet moved as if he wanted to move toward me.
But he looked at the woman in his arms and said, “Go back with Professor King first. I need to send her to the hospital.”
Something within me shattered.
For once, Colin chose another woman over me in front of everyone.
I told myself that Colin would never abandon me. He had to have a valid reason. The woman was injured. He couldn’t leave her high and dry. That was how kind he was.
Yet I couldn’t fool myself. I couldn’t get rid of the disappointment and heartbreak I felt. I cried. I felt cold, aggrieved, and upset.
The moment I heard that a mudslide hit him, I was so worried about him that I couldn’t eat or sleep. I told myself that I wouldn’t replace another man even in the event that he died.
To save him, I was covered in mud. My knees hurt so much that I struggled to stand, and my fingers were all wounded.
But after he was rescued and after he saw me, he ignored me as if he didn’t care that I had been worried sick about him. He carried the woman in his arms and left.
I once read that two people of the opposite sex who went through a difficult time together tended to share a deep bond.
Colin and the woman in his arms didn’t just go through a difficult time. They survived a life- and–death situation. Had Colin developed feelings for her?
No, right? No.
He told me that I was the only woman he loved and that his world had no place left for anyone else. He was a man of his word. He would never break his promise.
But it hurt so much.
He had spoiled me with his love, so much so that I couldn’t live without his affection.
Looking at how eager Colin was to leave the place, I cried.
And it had to be very tough on him, given that he hadn’t eaten a thing for two days. Yet he
carried her steadily. His feet stepped into puddles, and the mud sullied the hem of his already dirty slacks. Dark spots appeared, but he remained steady.

How important was this woman that he had to take such care to protect her? Other than being upset, I also felt betrayed–very betrayed.
“Let’s go. We can talk it out when we’re back.” Felix grabbed my elbow and dragged me with
him.
“It’s none of your business!” I tried to break free, but his grip was tight. I couldn’t pry my elbow free at all. He dragged me through the mud water.
Feeling powerless sucked.
I wanted Felix to leave me alone, but he wouldn’t let me be. Inside the tunnel, we pushed and shoved each other. The stalemate attracted the attention of many people. Uncle Austin wanted to intervene at first, but then he chose to remain by the side.
Professor King had to be aware of the feuds between Colin, Felix, and me, as well as the relationship between Felix and Colin. He didn’t meddle. Instead, he stood beside me to make sure that I wasn’t harmed. Then, he beckoned Winston with his eyes.
Winston got the hint right away. He shuffled toward us and grabbed my wrist with one hand and Felix’s wrist with the other. Then, he yanked forcefully to break us up. Felix staggered backward due to the inertia, but he soon steadied himself. His expression darkened.
