Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother

Chapter 13

As time slipped away, both our families were back to being civil with each other. However, we weren’t as passionate and inviting with each other anymore. Also, it was as if there was now a screen separating

me from Felix.

I never entered his room again. I didn’t even go to his house often anymore. Whenever we were invited over for dinner, I’d always find an excuse to skip it. I didn’t want to be alone with Felix under the same roof anymore. I wanted to stay silent and keep my distance.

During New Year’s Eve, Mom had initially thought of having a celebratory dinner at home by ourselves. However, Uncle Austin and Aunt Mel kept inviting us over for dinner and refused to take no for an answer. Mom and Dad were running out of excuses not to go, and they eventually gave in.

As for me, I never planned on attending the dinner in the first place. It was a holiday, and I wanted to have a good rest. Most importantly, I didn’t want to be anywhere close to him.

If I came near him, my mind would instantly be filled with Felix’s cold, ruthless expression as he repeated

his cruel words to me over and over again. It would make me feel dejected each time.

But I never thought that Felix would come looking for me.

I knew he was there, but I didn’t know how I should respond to him. So, I continued pretending not to

notice him.

It wasn’t until he plucked an airpod out of my ear that I finally had to open my eyes and acknowledge his
