Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother novel Chapter 516

"She's not free in the afternoon," Colin finished my sentence impatiently before I could continue.

Not one to make my boyfriend look bad in public, I said wryly that I would be busy in the afternoon and that we could take the discussion tomorrow.

Colin's attitude told me sufficiently that I might not be able to visit Crystal House as frequently as before anymore. Therefore, I wanted to go there as much as possible before the ban came into effect. After all, I truly loved that place.

Winston only smiled and left when he heard that I wouldn't be there in the afternoon. However, there was a hint of anger beneath his smile.

He respected Colin a lot, like a student who admired his teacher. Perhaps I was overthinking it, but I felt that under the reverence was contempt that he hid masterfully. Colin must have sensed it too because he stared at Winston's silhouette disdainfully.

When we arrived home, it was around 11:00 am. Laura wasn't there. Queenie and Andrew were eating. When they learned that we hadn't eaten anything, they went to the kitchen and brought out some food. They also grumpily protested the lack of prior notice.

They didn't cook anything extra, so they could only hope that there was enough food to feed four people. The weather was getting warmer, so I didn't have a big appetite. I only finished half of my plate. Colin, however, seemed to be taking his frustration out on food. He finished the whole plate himself.

After lunch, it was lunch break. I was free in the afternoon. But Colin didn't want me to hang out with Winston too often, so he told him that I wasn't free.

But in the future, I would still have to head to Crystal House. Colin couldn't possibly stop me every time. Besides, I went there to draw. Why did he have to stop me? If I wanted to cheat on him, I would've done it already. I wouldn't have been single during those four years at university.

After showering, I told Colin to take a nap in the bedroom. I thought that once he was asleep, I could sneak to Crystal House. My progress was behind. I was away in the morning and I didn't want to squander my afternoon either.
