Chapter 113

She picked out a bouquet of carnations-they symbolized love and blessings for a mother.

The florist asked her to wait for a moment, so she sat down.

As she turned her head, she spotted Hector.

He was here to buy flowers too?

Was he also going to visit their mother’s grave?

Because Autumn was seated further inside, partially hidden behind a display of bouquets, Hector didn’t notice her right away.

He stepped in, holding a box of mango cake, and said to the florist, “Could you wrap a bouquet for my sister, please? Thank you.”

The moment she heard that, it felt like someone had dumped a bucket of ice water over Autumn’s head.

The chill spread from the top of her skull to the soles of her feet.

So, she had been wrong.

She thought, like her, he remembered that their mother’s death anniversary was just a few days away.

She thought he might be here to visit their mom.

But instead, he was here to buy flowers for Luna.

How ironic.

They had probably long forgotten what day it was. Let alone remembering the third anniversary.

After all, they hadn’t shown up the past two years either.

The first year, they claimed they were away on business and couldn’t make it back.

The second year, Susan had gone abroad for surgery, and they were too busy looking after her.

When they returned, she asked why they hadn’t come.

Their response? “The living matter more than the dead.”

Autumn could only laugh at that.

These were the two ungrateful sons her mother nearly died twice giving birth to.

She wondered what excuse they would use this year.

After paying, Hector turned around and finally spotted Autumn.

He immediately walked over and grabbed her arm.

Without hesitation, he started accusing her, “Autumn, why did you convince Ethan to cancel our deal? What do you even gain from this?”

He truly couldn’t believe that the moment Autumn got close to Ethan, her first move was to sabotage the Lewis family.

He had no idea how she’d gotten involved with Ethan, but he was sure it wasn’t through anything respectable.

Not when just recently she was still tangled up with Julian-and at yesterday’s banquet, she’d been suspiciously cozy with the Sinclair heir too.

It made no sense.

Why did they all act like they were under some spell, falling all over themselves to please her?

He had to admit that Autumn’s tactics were impressive.

To have two such outstanding men wrapped around her finger like that was no small feat.

The only consolation was that, thankfully, Julian hadn’t fallen for her spell.

If he had, Luna would’ve been devastated.

There was no way she could ever compete with someone like Autumn.

With that bitter thought, Hector let out a cold scoff.

“Autumn, don’t think you can just rely on men and expect everything to go your way. On one side, you’re flirting with the Sinclair heir, and on the other, you’re tangled up with Ethan Sharp.

“Are you that desperate for a man? One’s not enough, so now you’re juggling two? Aren’t you afraid one day you’ll slip and drown in your own mess?

“You think rich men are fools? Once they see you for who you really are, they’ll drop you like a disease.”

His anger only grew.

He paused for a moment, then snapped, “You cozy up to Ethan, and the first thing you do is target the Lewis family. How did we end up with a backstabbing sister like you?

“Seems like you’ve forgotten your own last name. Do you really think any of this is going to make us pay attention to you?

“Don’t kid yourself. All you’ve done is make us despise you even more. Someone as shameless as you doesn’t deserve to be called our sister.”
