Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother

Chapter 8

Dad was silent for a while before he finally said, “Alright, I’ll start looking for houses tomorrow.”

Tears streamed down my face.

I cried for all the love for Felix that was deemed absolutely worthless and also for the love and protection Mom and Dad had given me. No matter what happened, they would always be the people who loved me

the most.

I lay back on my bed, but I couldn’t fall asleep.

All the memories I had created with Felix for the past 18 years came flooding back to me.

My heart felt like it was breaking into a million pieces, and more tears streamed down my face silently.

The boy I had loved with all my heart just wasn’t meant to be mine. Both of us were simply destined to walk on different paths. We would walk further and further away from each other with no turning back.
