“Actually, you don’t really like me, you just think that you like me. A lot of twins have listened to too much pseudo-science and feel like twins would tend to like the same thing or the same person. Then, they would subconsciously approach the thing or person that they both like,” Ste turned around and told Bemy.
“Do you think that I like you because I tried to convince myself into liking you?”
“It’s the same as telling yourself you aren’t drunk even though you knew that you couldn’t tolerate alcohol well. You’ll drink even more because you think you aren’t drunk. This is a psychological hint,” Ste exined firmly.
“If psychological hints are so powerful, why don’t you convince yourself into not liking Jasper, so that you could continue living happily?” Bemy retorted.
Ste showed a bitter smile. “Did you really think I didn’t try? Not only did I try that, I even hypnotized myself. I let my second personality be the master of my body; to be cold, determined, strong, and free from other’s harm, but my second personality also fell in love with him.”Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org.
Bemy could not help but look at Ste in astonishment. This was something he did not know about. “So are you the number oneor number two right now?”
“The difference between the first and second personality is that when I am the first personality, whenever the second personality appears, the first personality’s memories will go nk and I won’t remember what I’ve done. The second personality will know everything that the first personality has done. Now, I remember everything. So, it’s either I am still the first personality, or I have already cured myself,” Ste said calmly.
“So, what you’re trying to say is that psychological hints are useless,” Bemy said deeply.
Ste was at a loss for words.
“You’re great at talking. It’s a pity that you’re not awyer,” Ste said. She turned around and continued to look at theke.
Bemy smiled and nudged her with his shoulder. “Are you angry? Alright, I was wrong. I’m sorry.”
Ste remained silent.
Bemy stood in front of her andsaid, “Could I perform a magic trick for you?”
Ste did not say anything.
He took out a hundred dor note from his wallet and folded it into the shape of a small rose. “Look, it’s not in my hands anymore, right? Look.”
He reached behind her neck, took out a rose,and handed it to her. “How did this end up on you?”
Ste was still looking at him steadily. “Are you sure that you’re Jasper’s older brother, and not his younger brother?”
Bemy was speechless.
“I think that we should bewyers and work together. We will definitely be unbeatable.” He shoved the rose into Ste’s hand. “I am the older brother, Jasper is the younger one.”
“You look exactly like Jasper. Perhaps your father has made a mistake,” Ste said and she stuffed the rose back into his pocket. “I know that the money was in your hands the whole time. I have seen this trick plenty of times.”
“Ha, it seems that having a smart wife is not all good news,” Bemy sighed.
“So, you should find a stupid girl who will take you seriously andlisten to what you say all the time.She will be touched by what you have done, and she will admire everything you do. Such a girl is more suitable for you,” Ste said seriously.
He did not retort, because he did not want to put pressure on Ste.
He did not fall in love with her from psychological hints. He fell in love while he was with her. “Let’s walk for another round before heading back, alright? It’s too cold outside, your face is already red from the cold.”
“Okay,” Ste said. She slowly walked ahead and she did not say anything.
At this moment, Bemy’s phone rang.
He realized that it was Samuel’sndline number.He thought that his men had something to report to him, so he answered the call.
“Bemy, why did you imprison Samuel?” Tinley asked anxiously.
As soon as Bemy heard Tinley’s voice, he said irritably, “I don’t need to report this to you.”
“I have already called the police,” Tinley said angrily.
“Okay,” Bemy answered calmly, then he hung up the phone.
After thinking about it, he called Jackson.“I have a mission for you, take Tinley away. I don’t want her to take another step into A Country again. You should know what to do, right?”
“Chief, are you on bad terms with Samuel?” Jackson asked worriedly.
“It’s not that,but he tried to sow discord between me and Sean by killing Sean’s most trusted man, Darren. He even coborated with Larry. Everything he has done is unforgivable. If Tinley stays in the country, the only thing she will see is Samuel’s eventual death. She would only be sadder then. Don’t you love her? Take her away,” Bemy said in a low voice.
After he said that, he hung up the phone.
Ste roughly learned about Tinley’s situation through the phone.
Love was a type of obsession.
She was d thatat the very least, she and Jasper loved each other. This experience was worth it.
She had slept too much during the day, so she was not feeling too tired. She stayed in the study room to review papers.
As usual, Bemy apanied her and helped her out.
She was very focused on her work. It seemed that she was no longer silent and sad.
He believed that as long as Ste had a will to live, she would one day ept him.It would be fine even if she did not ept him. Companionship was the best confession one could make to a loved one.
Time passed by. The clock rang twelve times at midnight.
Ste looked up at the clock. She put down the pen in her hand and said,“I’m going to rest.”
“Alright.”
Ste led the way, and Bemy followed from behind.
She stopped and looked at him. “In my eyes, you are only my husband’s brother.”
“I know, don’t worry. You know that I won’t do anything to you, right?” Bemy smiled and said firmly.
Ste thought about it and agreed. She recalled how he had refused her even though she was the one who had the initiative back then.
She continued to walk forward and returned to her room. She took a change of clothes to the bathroom and locked the door. She showered, got dressed, and came out.
Bemy was already lying on the sofa. He told Ste, “I will sleep here from now on. I’ll remember to put it back in the daytime.”
Ste walked to the cab and took a quilt, nket, and pillow. She helped Bemy make his bed.
Bemy watched her make the bed, and his heart was filled with warmth. This was perfect and he was satisfied.
Ste helped him make his bed, and she said distantly, “Thank you, Mr. Chuck.”
It seemed that she was deliberately emphasizing his true identity.
Bemy lowered his eyes and said, “Go to sleep first. Good night.”
Ste nodded. She got onto her bed and turned towards the window with her back facing him.
Eli had Sean to take care of her andthey would soon be married.
Suzi would have Lte’spany. Bemy was an excellent man and he would surely be able to find a suitable woman.
Dante had his adoptive parents to take care of him. Ralph would soon be reunited with Suzi too.
She would not have any more regrets even if she were to leave the world right now.
Jasper had been waiting for her for a long time and they were going to meet again very soon.
Ste smiled and closed her eyes. She looked exceptionally calm and serene.
