She began her sentence with “I…I only have one copy… And I didn’t send it to anyone…”


    “Good!” I said, tossing her phone into the air, and fortunately for her, she was able to catch it in spite of


    the fact that her entire body was shivering with dread. “Now, get lost!”


    And the girls immediately scurried away and out of the room.


    “Cynthia…” Johnny rushed forward to check on her. “Are you okay?”


    Cynthia’s eyes were bloodshot red as she stared up at him, and her entire face was flushed with wrath


    in response to the young man.


    “I’m truly sorry… I had no clue that Mnie would decide what to do…


    “Get the f uck off!” Johnny was taken aback by her yelling in his face, yet his expression toward her


    remained soft even after she had done


    SO.


    “Cynthia… please listen to me…” he said. “I really love—”


    “She said… get the f uck off!” this time around, I was the one to cut him off. I had a hunch that what he


    was going to say to her wouldn’t be something that would be beneficial for her to take in. “Hadn’t you


    heard what she said?!”


    I was confident that Johnny would leave her alone after he saw how powerful I was, and when he


    actually did so, I let out a sigh of relief as I watched his back disappearing from the room.


    “Celine…” I paused when I heard Jessie’s voiceing from behind me. “I suppose it’s time for me to


    get going as well…”


    I nodded. “Thank you…”


    When Jessie left the room, the only sound that could be heard was Cynthia sobbing loudly. She cried


    tears of anguish while hunching

    SISTER-IN-LAW


    CELINE’S POV


    “You’re such a coward girl, Cynthia!” I remarked as I kneeled down next to her on the ground. “Where


    is the courageous Cynthia that I know? Where is the youngdy who used to yell at me when she was


    in a bad mood?”


    I was trying tofort her by saying those words, but it didn’t appear like my efforts were sessful


    because she started crying out loud even more. “You know nothing!” She sniffed, and tears continued


    to stream down her face. “Johnny, he is….”


    “He’s what?!” I asked while making a face. “Don’t tell me that you have fallen in love with that guy!”


    And the fact that she didn’t say anything to contradict it made me heave a deep sigh and shake my


    head. She just confirmed it.


    “He lied to you, Cynthia…” I added, lowering my voice, but she showed no sign of understanding to


    what I was saying or reacting to it. She continued crying like a baby. “He’s the reason why you broke


    down and cried on the balcony that night, right?”


    And all of a sudden, she stopped crying and looked up at me with eyes as big as saucers and a


    shocked expression on her face. “You…


    you saw me?”


    “Cynthia… how deeply have you fallen in love with Jake for you to


    rece him with such a guy like that?” I asked. “If you really wanted to find one, you should look for a


    more capable guy. Which aspect of this man has more charisma than Jake? Tell me…”


    She was speechless for a second before looking down at her hands. where they were ced on her


    lap, ying with the hem of her blouse.

    I really tried not to drawparisons between the two men, but I just couldn’t help myself. And Jake


    was a significant step above this Johnny guy in terms of physical appearance.


    “If you prefer a man like Johnny, then I will assist you look around in the future…” I gave her the


    reassurance. “I’ll make sure to put you in touch with a better and more good-looking one. Cynthia, you


    have not yet seen the world, and the only thing you know about is how to brag about the expensive


    clothes, bags, and well-known brands that you all have. You can’t even determine a good person from


    a bad one. Don’t you think you’re a failure?”


    She bit her lower lip, and I was relieved to see that she was paying close attention to everything I had


    to say now; although her eyes were no longer welling up with tears, they were still red and puffy.


    “And in addition to that… I’m curious as to whether or not you actually had sexual rtions with that


    young man…”


    And when she froze, she was renderedpletely speechless.


    “Are you on a pill?” I questioned her, but she did not have an answer for me. “You’d better not get


    pregnant with his baby since I know that the oue won’t be as handsome as Jake…”


    I cracked a joke in an effort to cheer her up, and I was relieved when it was sessful this time.


    “But nothing happened to us…” The corners of Cynthia’s mouth turned up into a smile, and I couldn’t


    help but reach out and run my hand through her hair as I did so. She’s still a baby… but this experience


    that she has had will definitely make her mature.


    “It’s lovely to see you smiling…” Imented and she blushed, which caused me tough out loud.


    “Don’t worry about it… simply picture yourself getting bitten by a dog every time thises to mind. It


    is in everyone’s best interest to gain rity as quickly as possible in order

    to avoid falling deeper. I have faith that one day you will find a man who will love you in a way that is


    genuine and unreserved…”


    “Why did you help me?” she asked out of the blue and I didn’t expect it at all, really.


    “Did I help you?” I retorted, raising an eyebrow at the same time.


    “I won’t thank you!” she snapped andughed.


    “That’s it…!” I pped my hands. “Sure you have to keep the same me ntality and keep moving


    forward…” and she gave a slight nod.


    Even though she’s a spoiled brat and constantly has a bad temper towards me, I like Cynthia because


    she’s such a beautiful and nice gi


    -well, sometimes… She’s also very true to herself, which was


    another reason for me to admire her.


    And I was caught off guard as sheunched herself at me and grabbed hold of me in a bear hug.


    “Thank you… my dear sister-in-w…”


    What? Have I understood her correctly?


    She addressed me as her… sister-inw? Finally…


    But I hated it…


    I didn’t like the way it sounded at all..


    I started to draw away from her while still having a pretty firm grip on her shoulders. “I’ve helped you,


    but you can’t say something like that so casually…” I said, pushing her. “What makes you think that I’m


    your sister-inw?”


    “Of course I’ll call you that, since you married my brother; it’s the proper way, right?!” She eximed,


    oblivious to the deathly re I was giving her. “From now on, you have to protect me at all times. You


    have to guide me until I find the right person…”
