Five Lost Angels: My Husband's Fatal Deception novel Chapter 196

“So, you mean to say that I should jump in the ocean of death alone?”

Bright’s sharp tone pierced through the air, immediately garnering my attention. It seemed that he and Sienna had found a conflict within seconds.

I just looked away and Bright’s harsh statement resounded in my ears, hinting at his distress as he said,

“Isn’t it better to talk to the respective families before and then reach a conclusion?

Trust me, it’s a suicide!”

As the situation escalated pretty quickly, I chimed in, trying to be a good host.

“What’s the matter?

Why are you still arguing after our detailed conversation?”

Bright scoffed, glaring at Sienna as if she were a criminal. She spoke hurriedly.

“It wasn’t my intention to offend you, Bright. I raised a point to speed up the process, but you got angry.”

“Because your point is stupid!” Bright snapped at her.

“When we have decided that we will talk to our parents and convince them for our breakup, why did you propose to call a joint family meeting?

Aren’t you aware of our elders’ beliefs?”

Bright pointed out the major flaw in Sienna’s suggestion, rejecting it at once. Even Aaron reprimanded his baby sister.

“I have told you to behave like a citizen of the Lakon city, not a carefree student in the Harvard University, Sienna. We have to follow certain rules here.

Family morals aren’t a joke …”

He then lectured her for a long time, boring us with the values of the Lockwood family. Sienna also felt the same as me. Her rebellious tone countered Aaron’s reasoning.

“Family, business, reputation. Can’t you guys think of anything else besides them?

I get it that the elders’ respect is important. But if we don’t express our views freely in front of them, how will they learn about our thoughts?

Don’t you know every minute is important to them?”

Bright agreed to Aaron and spoke, “You are right, Aaron. My dad has just returned from a long business trip. He is swamped with work at this moment.

And my mom, she already knows that I am not willing to marry Sienna. It will only be a waste of time.”

“God!” Sienna rolled her eyes at him,

“Why can’t you see where I am coming from? Calling our parents for a profitable business deal will do the trick.

Then we will share our life decisions with them. As far as my reason to deny marriage is concerned …”

She looked dead in her brother’s eyes and gritted her teeth.

“I will reveal my sexuality, brother. Coming out before my family is significant for my future.”

“You will do what???”
