Chapter 29 Really Want To Punch This Guy

In their room, Simone noticed Keira staring at her. Simone smiled and asked, “Why are you looking at me like that?

Keira didn’t hold back. “I never expected to uncover the gossip between you and Leon.” She had suspected something was off with Leon, and now she knew he and Simone had a history.

Simone shrugged off the revelation. “Impulsive decisions from our youth.”

Keira looked at Simone’s nonchalant demeanor and chuckled. “Who hasn’t fallen for a scoundrel in their younger days? It’s all about cutting your losses in time.” Her own past had seen her betrayed by a boyfriend, so she held a particular disdain for individuals like Leon, who, despite having a girlfriend, became involved with other women.

The recording in Simone’s hands would undoubtedly have an impact on Jodie. He wanted to keep. Jodie and Simone in his life, so he even asked Simone to delete the recording. This kind of scoundrel

was the worst.

Simone agreed, nodding. “Exactly, cutting losses in time is the way to go.”

Keira thought for a moment and couldn’t resist asking, “Did you and Aaron ever have a thing?” She noticed the man’s behavior, acting cute and dependent on Simone, which wasn’t typical of friends.

Simone chuckled. “Impossible. He and I are related by blood.” This wouldn’t be a secret for much longer, so she didn’t mind telling Keira in advance. Keira didn’t strike her as someone who would betray her.

Keira’s eyes widened. “What? Are you and Aaron blood–related? You’re siblings?”

Simone nodded. “We used to be.”

Keira was puzzled. “Used to be?”

Simone explained, “Before joining this reality show, I severed all ties with him and our family.”

Keira asked, “Why? It wasn’t because of Jodie, was it?”

Simone hesitated, then replied, “Well, she was a big part of it.”

Keira sought clarification. “So, technically, you and Jodie are sisters?”

Simone shook her head. “No, she was adopted by my parents. I’m their biological child.” She continued, “But I got lost when I was little because of Aaron. It was only a year ago that my family found me. They believed I was somehow encroaching on Jodie’s place upon my return and were not pleased with it. They expected me to make way for her in every aspect, and I just couldn’t tolerate it, so I decided to sever ties with them.”

Keira didn’t expect the situation to be like this. She was appalled. “Your family is being completely

unreasonable.”
