Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother

Just as I finished washing up, Colin’s video call came in.

The phone rang just as I changed into my pajamas. I was still drying my hair with a towel in my hand.

Without much thought, I used a finger to swipe and answer the call. I placed the phone on the desk as I sat down on the chair to continue drying my hair.

Colin’s handsome face immediately appeared on the phone screen. I took a glance and saw his eyes flicker slightly, a hint of light shimmering in them.

“Colin, you’re not asleep yet,” I chatted aimlessly, trying to fill the silence.

“Yeah, I was worried about you, so I wanted to take a look.”

“Really? I thought you were here to avenge Felix? He deceived me first, so you can’t blame me for hitting him. I tried my best to stop myself, Colin. If he insists on being stubborn, I’ll beat him up again.

“Hmph, this is so infuriating. He was caught hiding my letters but he still refused to admit. it. He even said it was for my own good. How could I let him go just like that?

“He’s the kind of person who dares to do things but doesn’t dare to admit to them–a perfect match for Lilac.”

I rambled on about my frustrations, and Colin didn’t say anything. He just watched me through the screen with a smile on his face.

We talked for a long time until I fell asleep. I didn’t know when Colin hung up the phone.

The next morning, I woke up fully rested. I went to the opposite house without even having breakfast.

Felix opened the door, and when I went in, I saw that Colin’s door was slightly ajar. I didn’t know if he was home or not.

“Felix, give me back my letters.” I stood at the edge of the couch and angrily demanded what I wanted directly.

He glanced up at me, picked up a cigarette from the coffee table, and lit it slowly. He took a slow puff and exhaled a cloud of smoke.

His face was hidden behind the smoke, so I couldn’t see his expression clearly. He said, ”

Those are old letters. What use do you have for them?”

It didn’t matter what I wanted to do with them. Since they were mine, I should be keeping them. Why would he keep them?

“That’s none of your business. Just give them back to me.”

“Lulu, don’t tell me you still have feelings for Matthew…”

I suddenly felt annoyed and retorted, “How I feel about Matthew doesn’t concern you. Stop with the nonsense. Hurry up and give me back my letters. I still have other things to do and don’t have time to waste here.”

The smoke cleared, and Felix’s eyes darkened. “Are you so eager to find out what he wrote to you? Seriously, you’re already in your 20s. Do you still believe in those childish things?”

“Yes, I want to know. What is it with you? Give them to me quickly. I don’t want to waste my time arguing with you.”

I really had no patience for Felix now. His actions truly annoyed me. The more I thought about it, the more I felt that yesterday’s beating was too light for him. I should’ve hit him a few more times so that he had to lie in bed for a few days.

Felix sat on the couch, looking at me steadily for a while. Then, he got up and went into his room to bring out a blue rectangular box. He placed it on the coffee table. “They’re all in here.”

I glanced at him, picked up the box, and opened it. There was a stack of letters inside with each one labeled “To Lulu“.

I opened one letter. It was Matthew’s handwriting. There was a quite realistic chubby caricature inside. The drawing style was Matthew’s. Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

I took the box home. Just as I was about to read the letter I had opened, someone knocked on the door, and it sounded urgent.

I looked through the peephole and saw that it was Colin.

This meant that he was actually home when I was arguing with Felix in their house just now.
