Chapter 299

Edith’s entire being was flabbergasted, her pale face gradually turning ashen, as if struck by a series of thunderbolts.

“Jareth, what are you talking about? Are you disowning me as your sister?”

Jareth turned a deaf ear, only focusing on Marilla in his arms, his large hand rubbing her trembling back over and over.

“Don’t be afraid. I’m back, no one can hurt you anymore”

But this time, Marilla wasn’t as obedient as before. Instead, she became like a small hedgehog, bristling all over, even her rapid breathing was a resistance against Jareth. “No, you’re not my brother, you’re Edith’s brother.”

Her weak soft hands kept shoving against the solid chest of the man. Each push felt like a dagger piercing his heart. “Let me go. I want to go home. I want to find Grandpa, ! want to go home!“

“Marilla, don’t be afraid” Jareth’s eyes were bloodshot, but he still stubbornly tried to soothe her.

“Let go!”

No matter how much Manilla cried and screamed, Jareth refused to let go, not even an inch. Instead, he held her tighter.

His rough firm hand held her slender waist, squeezing her soft flesh through her white dress. Then, his eyes narrowed his thin lips pressed against her earlobe, his voice hoarse but soft. “You’re right, I’m not your brother. I’m your man, Marilla.”

Edith was shocked, watching the woman who had been bullied by her since childhood, the woman who she thought she could bully forever, being loved wholeheartedly by her own brother

She felt as if her heart was hollowed out, her soul about to crack.

This pain was excruciating, even a hundred times worse than learning Thaddeus was in love with Evadnel

Jareth was the most important man in her life. She had always thought as a sister, she could be willful and unruly under his protection for the rest of her life.

But now, she felt she was about to lose this exclusive protection.

He wanted to give it all to Marilla‘

“My man?” Marilla raised her small face, her wet eyes full of bewilderment that tugged at his heartstrings.

“Yes, I’m yours” Jareth’s voice was like gravel, his eyes burning with intense heat

Boom!

Edith’s sparkling life, like a crystal palace, was about to collapse.

Lily, having seen Jarethis passionate confession to Marilla, was hiding in the shadow, her lips curling up in satisfaction.

Marilla had been beaten and, due to Edith’s appearance, her childhood traumas were triggered, causing her great distress, and she fainted in Jareth’s arms.

Jareth took her back to the room, helped her wipe her sweat and tears with a clean towel, and covered her with a blanket

“Uh” Marilla turned over, her beautiful eyebrows frowning, looking very uncomfortable.,

His heart was also in agony, a mixture of anger and guilt. His handsome face, usually stern, was now pale

*Im sorry, Manilla. I failed to protect you, it’s all my fault.”

Lily stepped in quietly, standing there hesitating to speak, afraid to disturb the intimate moment.
