Falling for a Lie: My Stepbrother's Hidden Revenge

Eder sighed softly. Remembering Fifteen’s story made him feel guilty.

“Go on. I’ve made her life so miserable for the past six months so I have to give something back and stop feeling like I owe her anything.”

Eric paused, hesitating.

He didn’t owe Ms. Sylvia anything anymore!

But Eric also knew that Eder loved Sylvia too much and would do everything in his power to please her.

He loved too deeply even at the expense of himself.

Eric felt really sorry for his boss but there was nothing else he could do.

Sylvia woke up.

The first thing she did was to check her body for any hickeys.

She belatedly noticed the neatly folded quilt on the small sofa.

It seemed that Eder did not take advantage of her last night.

He was actually willing to sleep on the sofa, which proved he was a clean man. He was different from the rumors she had heard before.

She still remembered everything that happened before she was drunk last night.

It was an emotional rollercoaster for her, after all. However, she was under the influence of the wine, hence, her feelings got the best of her.

Now that she was sober, she realized that Eder’s matter was too strange so she had to investigate further.

Mr. Grant’s expression did not change. “After establishing a foothold in the city, too many ladies wanted to stick to him. He didn’t like it, so he spread the rumors.”

“I see.” Sylvia smiled softly and continued to ask, “Did he always look like this?”

“Otherwise?” Mr. Grant’s wrinkled face had a very natural expression, but Sylvia could detect his
