Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother

Chapter 27

Zara walked beside me and muttered in a low voice about how Felix was heartless and blind and would definitely regret his decision down the road.

She said that Lilac was obviously not as innocent as she looked and was clearly just putting on an act for me. She also said that Lilac had all the vibes of a scheming bitch, and I was no match for her because I was such a blockhead.

She was annoyed, and I didn’t interrupt her until she’d finished her rant. Then I told her that Felix and I were history now and that she shouldn’t mention it again.

She gritted her teeth and lectured me about how useless I was. At that moment, she seemed like a mother worrying about my marriage prospects.

I knew she just wanted to defend me, but the facts were right there. I had already distanced myself from Felix, and there was nothing more to be said about it.

Besides, liking him was my own choice and had nothing to do with him.

His feelings for Lilac had nothing to do with me either.

Everyone should just mind their own business.

Zara was frustrated by my lack of drive. She said that in this age, men all liked women who appeared innocent and were just a little sly, and a saint like me would be sure to lose.
