Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother novel Chapter 417

After the meal, Queenie visibly felt better.

Andrew seized the opportunity to suggest watching a movie together. He said a good, nerve-wracking thriller was recently released.

I found an excuse and left them. I was not going to be a third wheel on their date.

I went home and found that Flynn was leaning against the gate, smoking.

For some reason, it felt like he had aged a lot after an hour. His face was ashen, and his eyes were soulless.

When he saw me, his eyes lit up briefly. They dimmed when he saw that it was just me alone.

Originally, I wanted to ignore him. But we had been friends for many years. It wasn't right to do so.

"What are you doing here?" I asked.

He lifted his head to look at the dusk sky. Loneliness oozed from his gaze. "So, she's leaving me for real this time."

Duh! Who would stay with a cheating boyfriend?

Rage welled up within me.

Was Flynn still oblivious to the fact that he reaped what he sowed? Was he that full of himself or did he think Queenie was dumb?

"Flynn, Queenie is my best friend, but this time, I'm not taking sides. I'll try to be objective. You two dated for many years. Other than money, what have you given her? She kept you company for five years. She waited for you for five years.

Flynn ignited his lighter and lit up another cigarette before huffing out smoke silently.

"Go back. Daniela is your responsibility now. She's pregnant with your child. Leave Queenie alone, and stop pestering her. She doesn't owe you anything."

"I love her. I can't let her go." He leaned back against the gate, his left hand covering his eyes. Tears rolled down from his fingers.

Regret served no purpose when the damage done was irreversible.

The belated realization of his true feelings was worth nothing.

"She was hurt too deeply. If you love her, let her go. Letting go is also a kind of love. Given your status and wealth, you and she will never have a good ending. So end it before everything turns ugly. At least, you get to keep the fond memories. Be kind to her."
