Chapter 328
“It’s okay. He’s an adult. He knows what he should and shouldn’t do,” Colin
reassured me.
I fervently prayed in my heart with my hands clasped together.
The supervisor of our dorm was in a good mood. Seeing my huge luggage, she surprisingly agreed to let Colin escort me upstairs.
My apartment unit was on the third floor. The door was open, indicating that
Helen had returned.
“Helen! You’re back early…” I bounced to the door, but before my words could reach her, I had to forcibly swallow them back. I turned around to look at Colin with a silly grin.
Both of us had a knack for jinxing things.
I was worried about what would happen if Lilac and Felix bumped into each
other, and they actually did in front of the school gate.
Colin had been worried about what would happen if I bumped into Matthew, and
he was actually in my apartment.
What kind of drama was this? It was torturing.
Matthew was bending down to pick up the suitcase and put it on the cabinet above when he heard my voice. He froze for a moment, almost letting go
of the
suitcase.
Helen reached out to help, preventing Matthew from being hit by the falling suitcase. If it had fallen on him from that height, he would have been injured for

Matthew stared at me intently, his face showing unabashed longing and sorrow. – It left me at a loss for words.

smiled at me with a hint of bitterness. “You’re not too late yourself.”
I scratched my head and forced a smile. It was too awkward.
Helen liked Matthew, Matthew liked me, and I liked Colin. Colin was the only winner in this love story.
“What are you standing by the door for? Go in,” Colin said in a deep voice.
Matthew hesitated for a moment and asked, “Is this Felix’s brother?”
The situation was a mess, and decisions had to be made quickly.
There was no way to avoid or hide our relationship. So, I confidently took Colin’s hand and walked in. “Yes, and he’s also my boyfriend.”
The light in Matthew’s eyes dimmed slightly, and his tall figure trembled slightly. He awkwardly greeted us before turning to tidy up Helen’s bedding. His
movements were nervous and disordered.
I… had hurt this man who had loved me for many years.
The fact that I had a boyfriend would eventually become common knowledge. I hadn’t expected to meet like this, but it was also unavoidable.
It was just that it was never my intention to hurt him.
It had always been my principle not to give anyone false hope if I couldn’t return. their feelings. My methods might be too direct and harsh, but they allowed people
to heal faster.
