Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother novel Chapter 472

"Hey, am I seeing things? Isn't that Lilac?" Zara, with her fiery temperament, had been displeased with Lilac for years. Naturally, she wouldn't miss such a good opportunity to tease her.

Shawn's slap was not light as it made Lilac fall to the ground heavily. As she cried and struggled to get up, she heard Zara's deliberately raised voice. It caused her bitter expression to turn into one of embarrassment and humiliation.

She wanted to retort but felt outnumbered by the three of us. By then, Shawn had disappeared without a trace. Instead of trying to get up, she just sat on the ground with her back to us. It seemed she chose to act defiantly.

Picking fights for no reason and avoiding confrontation when things got tough was definitely her style.

"Wow, is she crying? That's quite impressive," Jade said softly, her words laced with poison.

Lilac's back was twitching. She was clearly still crying.

We were not the type of people to kick someone when they were down, so after a few words and before Lilac could lose her mind, the three of us left the scene.

Her current predicament was the result of her own doing, so no one would sympathize with her.

We were still discussing after settling down in the restaurant. It was clear that Lilac must have done something behind Shawn's back, something shameful. Otherwise, he wouldn't have hit her. Back then, Shawn was badly beaten up by Felix because of her.

If it weren't for her, would Colin and I have suffered so much?

Just thinking about it made my blood boil. She was the one who started it all.

"I think Shawn really liked Lilac. If she had focused on him wholeheartedly, maybe they could've had a good ending. But she's too greedy and fickle. No wonder she ended up like this. It's all her own doing."

"That's right. Back then, she intentionally snatched Felix away. I thought they would end up together. Nobody could have guessed she would cheat on him. But then, it was thanks to her that I came to realize how much of a scumbag Felix could be."

"You're right. I was so mad when I heard that Felix and Lilac hooked up. Thinking about it now, it's lucky that they did. A scumbag and a vile woman make a perfect match. It's a shame they didn't end up together."

The talk didn't affect our appetite, so we had a happy meal.

The books said that men were forever young at heart, but in my opinion, men were just children who never grew up. They were always vying for attention, acting spoiled and throwing tantrums.

"You have time for me now?" Colin's expression showed his displeasure. He appeared sulky, his usually composed demeanor clearly ruffled by my actions earlier.

Knowing that I was in the wrong, I quickly tried to soothe his feelings. I calmed him down before reluctantly saying, "Colin, please come back soon. Southsville is not the same without you. I miss you so much."

His brows softened slightly, but he lifted his eyes with a snort and refused to talk to me.

I knew that my coaxing had worked, so I continued.

"Why are you snorting? You have a beautiful woman to accompany you every day. Do you know how lonely I am? Just now, both Zara and Jade were picked up by their boyfriends, leaving me all alone. They're all in a relationship, so no one cares about me.

"Even when it was raining, there was no one to pick me up. What's the use of having a boyfriend? Zara asked me out because she saw that I was upset, but now you're angry with me. If I had known that you'd be angry, I wouldn't have gone out. It wasn't fun anyway."
