Chapter 266 Can’t Escape, Accept Your Fate

Titus’ words caused Leon’s expression to change, and he fell silent as he poured himself a few moredrinks.

Harold spoke up, “Leon used to recklessly indulge in his emotions by relying on Simone’s love. Hebelieved that no matter what he did, Simone would always be his sweetheart and wouldn’t abandonhim. So, he acted without restraint. But little did he know that she also had a temper. When she saidshe didn’t love him, she meant it. And when she turned away, she meant it, too. Leon wasdumbfounded, but by the time he realized his mistake, it was too late.”

With each word, Leon’s face grew paler. After listening, Titus agreed, “That’s exactly right. I used tothink that Simone was my biological sister and that our bond as a family couldn’t be broken.Furthermore, Simone used to treat us so well, caring so much about us, so I thought she wouldn’tmind. There shouldn’t be any insurmountable obstacles among family members, but in the end, therewere. We drove Simone away, and she never came back. So, we, as her brothers, also actedrecklessly.”

Weren’t they just like Leon, betting on Simone’s kindness and tolerance? But when they realized theirmistake, it was already too late.

Leon took a deep breath. “You’re right; I used to be too self-righteous. He had always thought that hecould hold onto the little girl who grew up relying on him.

Whenever he turned around, she would be waiting for him in the same spot, just like when they werechildren. But this time, he messed up and lost his beloved little girl; she would never wait for him in thesame spot again.

He looked at Harold and said, “You analyzed me so well, but what about my sister? Don’t tell me thatyou think my sister will turn back. Didn’t you also bet on my sister’s past love for you

and hurt her?”

These words wiped the smile off Harold’s face in an instant, and he said in a self-deprecating tone,“Yes, so I’m not a good person, either. We were self-righteous, acted recklessly, and now we’vebecome estranged brothers.

Indeed, he had a similar mindset as Leon before, thinking that Gwen cared so much about him andwouldn’t reject him. Alas, it was too late for regrets now.

However, he couldn’t give up, so he felt bitter in his heart. Is it because I spend too much time with youtwo that I’ve been influenced by you? Otherwise, why did he treat Gwen so badly in the past? Hewanted to do good for her but ended up hurting her instead.

Titus and Leon both said to him, ‘Get lost!

Titus was speechless. “Among us, you have always been the most malicious, yet you have the nerve tosay that we are the ones who influenced you. I even thought that I was the one influenced by you.”

Leon added, “Exactly, you are the most scheming among us, dripping with malice. To turn the tableslike this, you are the most shameless.” He poured a glass of wine for the other two. “But speaking of it,we really are brothers in misfortune, abandoned together. It’s our fault for not knowing how to cherishthings. Come, let’s drink. We’re not going home until we’re drunk.”

He raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp, then continued to drink without stopping. Since hisfalling out with Simone, he had developed a liking for using alcohol to numb. himself.

Harold and Titus were also in a bad mood after being criticized, following suit, and drinking. glass afterglass. The three of them drank until midnight, and then they were drunkenly escorted away by theirrespective assistants.

Titus did have a stroke of bad luck. When he was going down the stairs, he slipped and fell down thestairs. His assistant was terrified when he saw him covered in blood and immediately drove him to thehospital.

Halfway there, the car broke down, and they couldn’t replace a cab. To make matters worse, there were nocars to flag down on the road. In the end, they had to call 911 to have Titus. taken away.

After falling down the stairs, Titus had sobered up for the most part. In the hospital, his wounds weretreated, and he was given a sobering IV drip. When he was fully awake, he realized that his head wascut open and stitched up. One of his hands was also fractured from

the fall.

Titus wanted to curse again and couldn’t stop himself from calling Andrew. No one answered, so hetried video calling, but still no response. He guessed that this jerk was probably feeling guilty and afraidto answer.

Afterward, he asked his assistant to take a few pictures of his miserable state, planning to settle thescore with his fourth brother later. Frustrated, he opened the group chat with Luca and Aaron andintentionally initiated a group video call.

The other two, who were sleeping, were awakened by the noise. They checked the time-5 am-andwondered what their second brother was up to. Still, they answered the call one after another and saw

Titus’ sorry state. Instantly, they woke up from their drowsiness.

Luca couldn’t help but ask, “Titus, what happened to you?”

Titus answered, “It’s all thanks to you. You were doing perfectly fine. Why did you have to talk toAndrew and tell him that I could ask Simone to draw the talismans? So, he came to me,

but Simone refused to help him, and he snatched my charm.

Luca was shocked. “He snatched your talisman, and then you ended up like this?”

Titus replied, “Of course, isn’t it obvious? Simone said that because my aura was on that. talisman, Iprotected him from disaster when Andrew took it and put it on himself.” Then, he explained how he fellfrom the stairs and ended up in this state.

Luca and Aaron were both horrified to hear this, especially Luca because Andrew was staying at hisplace. He asked, “If our talismans are snatched by Andrew, are we also protecting him

from disaster?”

Titus raised an eyebrow. “What do you think? We are brothers, after all. Otherwise, I won’t botherreminding you.” Somehow, he had a feeling that these two couldn’t escape, either.

Andrew had always been a troublemaker since childhood, and once he tasted the sweetness of histalisman, how would he let his other brothers escape? So, even though he reminded them, he was

looking forward to the aftermath of these two.

After all, it was Luca who instigated Andrew to come replace him. By reminding them, they would pay moreattention to their talismans, making it easier to catch Andrew’s attention and allowing him to snatchthem.

Luca was at a loss for words. “I didn’t expect it to turn out like this.”

Aaron felt like crying. “I don’t want to participate in the next variety show.” D’mn it, not only did he haveto deal with Jodie, but now he also had to watch out for Andrew.

Titus chuckled. “You were so determined to help Jodie secure a spot on the variety show, and now, youwant to run away? Dream on.”

Luca added, “That’s right, little brother. You can’t escape, just accept your fate.” If Aaron ran away,Jodie and Andrew would likely come after him. After all, as the youngest, he should bear theresponsibility.

Aaron sighed without a word. With brothers like these, he was truly unlucky. The three of themcontinued their conversation for a while before ending the video call. However, neither of them couldsleep.

The next morning, after Aaron finished breakfast, he received a call from Jonah informing hum that theoriginally scheduled time and location had changed due to some issues. The show had beenpostponed for half a month, and the location had also been changed to

Cubilis

Upon hearing this change, Aaron felt uneasy. The fact that they postponed the time and changed thelocation indicated that the person behind Jodic was not ordinary Tentatively he asked if he could

withdraw from the next variety show, even at the cost of paying a penalty

Nevertheless, Jonah disagreed and said that unless he was truly unable to participate, he had to fulfillhis commitment no matter what. After all, Aaron had agreed to participate in all the variety shows tomake Jodie famous; he couldn’t simply break his promise.

Reluctantly, Aaron agreed to continue participating in the next variety show. On the other side, Simoneand the others also received a phone call from Jonah, and at noon, Titus was discharged from thehospital and immediately taken by his assistant to the apartment where Simone lived.
