Chapter 14
Joshua and Emily got engaged.
I heard that Joshua’s mother made a big fuss at home, even going on a hunger strike.
But Joshua was even more ruthless, he actually let his mother starve for two days.
Bethany was beaming when she told me about this.
Then she muttered in confusion.
“Liam, why do you think Joshua’s mother is making such a fuss? She’s dead set against them being together, even if there’s a difference in family background, it shouldn’t be this serious, right?”
“Could it be… they’re half-siblings!”
As expected of Bethany, who had read countless cheesy novels, she actually guessed close to the truth.
I smiled and took out a paper document from the safe in my room.
I handed it to Bethany.
After flipping through it, Bethany screamed.
“Oh my god! This is so explosive! Why didn’t you tell me this sooner! They’re actually siblings!”
“I told you those comments about them looking like a couple were unreliable! They’re siblings!”
“Liam, how did you find out?”
I pondered for a moment, and slowly said
“Last time Mrs. Quinn came to me, she said something about them not being able to be together, because of something something, she didn’t finish.”
Seeing Bethany’s hopeful eyes, I continued.
“Then I saw netizens online saying they looked like a couple, so I thought I’d have them tested…”
“So what are you going to do next? Give this to Joshua?”
I shook my head.Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
“No, it’s not time yet.”
Because the right time hadn’t come yet.
