Chapter 43

Chapter 43 Harley , lets go .

Noelle said , tugging at Harleys sleeve .

Eli had left with Leia , and the group of girls who had gathered around him dispersed .

Harleys mind lingered on what had just happened , but Noelles call brought him back to the present .

He turned to her , his expression a mix of concern and frustration .

Noelle , youre the real daughter of the Anderson family , right ! Leia was switched at birth and wont even related to them ? Uh huh , thats right Why ? Noelle replied , her tone casual .

Harley frowned deeply , irritation flashing in his eyes .

Then why does Eli treat you like this ? He didnt even bother figuring out what happened before scalding you , and when he realized he was wrong , he didnt apologize .

He just left .

er ! Eli cares about Leia more .

She cried , so of course , hed rush to comfort her Noelle tilted her head , puzzled , Why does it matter ? Her tone was so matter of fact that Harleys anger surged .

Why does he care more about Leia ! Youre his actual sister .

Even if he doesnt favor you .

he should at least treat you equally .

How is this acceptable ! Noelle blinked , considering his words .

I guess you have a point Its not just a point its the truth Harleys voice rose .

You dont realize it , but the way he treats you is completely wrong .

Noelle was just too naive , and it seemed like she had no sense of the complexities of relationships at all .

Thats why , even being treated this way , she didnt seem to feel anything .

But then , something else crossed Harleys mind .

Could it be that Noelle had always been treated like this in th the Anderson family ! Perhaps , because everyone like Eli always favored Leia , Noelle never knew what it felt like to be supported or protected .

She had no sense of comparison , no sense of what she was missing because it was all she had ever know , Harley thought .

The thought made Harleys heart sink , a heavy weight sealing deep within him .
