Stella shook her head, “Since he knew about this before I did, but chose not to tell me about it, he must have his reasons behind this.”

“So, is this your way of saying that you forgive him?”

“It’s not like he’s done anything bad to me, but I wouldn’t call this forgiving him.”

Moreover, she was rather pleased that she ended up not tearing apart the paper-thin film between the two parties.

Or else, she could not even begin to imagine how it would turn out if Chan knew about it.

If that happened, no matter who it was, they were bound to be awkward.

As if Clarence was able to read her mind, he frowned and said in a low voice, “As long as you have a clear idea on the matter, you can ignore what other people think.”

Slightly annoyed, she repeated, “Chan is my only brother, he’s also my only…”

“Stella, it doesn’t matter if he’s the only one, or one of a few, you have to know that you must put yourself first before anyone else. There’s nothing wrong if you choose to live for yourself every once in a while.”

Stella wanted to object him, but just as she opened her mouth to say something, Clarence added, “Do you know why you’re always this stressed out? It’s because you just had to care about how other people feel or think about you. You’re overthinking everything, that’s why you always seem exhausted.”

“I don’t always care about how other people feel, I just don’t want Chan…”

“He’s already twenty years old, he’s an adult now. If he can’t even stomach these insignificant news, do you think that everything you’ve done for him is worth it?”

It wasn’t until a while later that Stella added in a soft voice, “This is how I think. No one else is more important to me than Chan. If I had to choose, I would undoubtedly choose him.”

Clarence’s eyebrows shifted up, “Not even me?”

Stella looked him in the eyes and said in the same tone of voice, “Sir, you just had to embarrass yourself, don’t you?”

Clarence was speechless.

He switched off the lights and said, “Sleep.”

In the dark, Stella blinked repeatedly and asked, “Are you angry at me?”
