Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother

"Jasmine, what brought you here?" Colin was leaning against me, so I straightened his body to make him sit upright.

I was clueless about what was wrong with him. Before Jasmine came, he was sitting pretty well. As soon as she arrived, he leaned against me lazily, as if he would fall to the ground if he couldn't maintain his balance.

I had no choice but to stand up, put my arm around his shoulders, and let him lean into my arms. He then calmed down and took a few sips of water.

When Jasmine witnessed our intimate interaction, her hypocritical smile instantly froze like a smiling mask. She didn't react for a few seconds.

Gavin, who was standing next to her, cleared his throat slightly before she finally responded.

She quickly suppressed the jealousy and resentment that was about to overflow from her eyes. "Today is Colin's birthday. How could I not attend? We share a unique bond despite our acquaintanceship. I ought to give him something as a token of my blessing."

Her hypocritical performance began, but I didn't like her words.

Why should she come to Colin's birthday? Also, many people had known him for many years. Who was she to him? How could she be so bold as to claim their connection was out of the ordinary?

Perhaps there was indeed something-not an intimate one, but rather, her coercion toward him and his avoidance of her.
