Chapter 242


    Colin’s steady footsteps drew closer, but I dared not turn around.


    The desire to know the answer to that question intensified once again.

    “Colin, is that woman my future sister–inw? She’s quite pretty. Congrattions. I really have


    something to attend to, so I’ll take my leave first.”


    As I spoke, I didn’t even realize that my voice was choked with tears.


    It wasn’t until I had walked quite a distance away that I felt a cool sensation on my face. Upon wiping it


    with my hand, I realized I had been crying.


    Had Colin’s absence affected me so much to the point of crying?


    Finally stumbling back to the apartment building, my head was pounding even more.


    Lc was standing at the entrance like a doorkeeper. As soon as she saw me, mes of anger seemed


    to surge in her eyes. It was as if she wanted to tear me apart and devour me alive.


    I sighed helplessly.


    It seemed like trouble followed wherever I went.


    I wasn’t afraid because I felt guilty but because I was tired of unnecessary arguments and conflicts.


    Unfortunately, now that she had shown up, I had to face the situation no matter how much it annoyed


    me.


    Besides, I had always been honest with nothing to hide. Why should I be afraid?


    “Luna, I trusted you so much. You imed to be innocent, but then you turned around and held hands


    with someone else’s boyfriend, unting your affection. Where’s your pride?”


    Before I could even respond, Lc’s sharp and sarcastic words pierced through me like


    arrows.


    I really should be thankful that she asked about my pride instead of using me of being shameless.


    The contrast between her gentle demeanor and her venomous words was striking.


    I had intended to exin the situation politely, reassuring her that there was nothing going on between


    me and Felix. She had misunderstood us.

    But with my low spirits, the frustration of being misunderstood, the exhaustion from busy days, and


    Lc’s unfounded usations, my patience had reached its limit. I finally erupted.


    At that moment, I failed to realize that the emotional turmoil I was experiencing was only a fraction of


    the blow that person had dealt me.


    “Lc, mind your words. I’ve never done anything wrong, so there’s no need for you to use me like


    this. If you want to know the truth, you should ask Felix. And please watch yournguage. If you keep


    this up, don’t me me for being rude.”


    Lc was rude, and I was angry, so my expression turned cold.


    If it weren’t for my desire to maintain the image of an artist and the good manners instilled in me by my


    parents since childhood, I would’ve loved to p Lc across the face. I wanted to let out all the


    grievances I had umted over the years.


    But I wasn’t her, and I couldn’t behave recklessly like her.


    It was impossible to reason with unreasonable people.


    Facing someone like Lc, trying to resolve our dispute in a civilized manner was highly unlikely.


    Every time I faced off against her, I couldn’t help but me Felix. If he wasn’t always doing things that


    could easily lead to misunderstandings, would I be repeatedly ndered by Lc? Would I have to


    exhaust myself trying to defend my innocence?


    Felix was the root of all the trouble.


    “Everyone in school saw it and yet you won’t admit it. You dare to do it but not own up You’re truly


    shameless.”


    In an instant, my anger surged.


    to it.


    The word “shameless” was a tant insult to me. I considered myself upright and honest, so how dare


    she use such humiliating words to insult me? Did she think I was easy to bully?
