Five Lost Angels: My Husband's Fatal Deception novel Chapter 184

"It is, Sienna. Why don't you try to understand?”

Aaron sounded helpless, repeating the code of conduct of women in Lakon city. He was a part of old-fashioned, conservative society, advocating for their strict beliefs. I felt a surge of annoyance overwhelming me as he pointed his finger at my life's choices.

"You have led a casual life in the modern city without any restrictions.

Now, you are back home. And here, you would have to face severe consequences of your actions.

So, you must act in a certain way to keep up with the standards of the business circle"

Society, business, and responsibilities, that was all I heard after my return. There was a question in my mind, bothering me for a few days about my apparently new life.

"So, you are saying that I should lie, concealing the real side of my personality.

How can I pretend to like anyone just for outsiders, Aaron? It's my life, my happiness!”

Aaron, my super brother, changed his colors faster than a chameleon and became a carbon copy of our dad in a split second, speaking gravely.

"You have played enough, Sienna. Now, Bright is your fiancé and you have to focus on him.

If a single word goes out that you are interested in women rather than men, the damage will be irreversible!”

"Seriously, brother?”

Gawking at him in disbelief, I was unable to see my mistake in the whole scenario. Like, it wasn't a crime to feel attraction towards someone romantically. Love was a divine feeling, bounding two hearts forever in harmony. It was the only thing that made this harsh world slightly livable.

Unfortunately, some ignorant people were still sticking to the old ideology, restricting this emotion with genders to dictate others' lives. And my family was also a part of those unloving people!

After this, I couldn't even imagine my parents' lash out!

It was great that I had collected the answers to my queries right away without spending a long time in shopping. We were good to go now. So, I chose to stay silent and shook my head in response.

"If the truth of my sexuality is lethal for a billion-dollar empire ruling over the Lakon city for decades, then I won't go against your word, Aaron.

However, …”

I paused for a moment, noticing the relaxed visibly taut muscles on my brother's face, he was relieved by my reply. I let that sink before completing my statement.

"Nothing can change this fact that I don't love Bright. I like women, the magical creatures on this Earth.

These men can't ever be my choice, Aaron!”
