Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother novel Chapter 719

I rolled my eyes. Another scumbag? He flirted with other women yet thought he did nothing wrong. He thought he was just being a good friend, and he gaslit his girlfriend so that he could continue his behavior.

What had the world become? How could someone in the wrong guilt-trip the victim while the victim had to swallow it all or risk being called petty? This man's girlfriend should break up with him. He wasn't worthy of her love.

"Zara, I'm telling you one last time. I can forget about the past. As long as you ask me to come back to you, I'll arrange a meeting between our parents to talk about our marriage. I'll treat you well. But you need to know that Faye is my childhood friend. She's my responsibility.

"You'll take care of her like I do now."

Wait. Zara? So the guy was Chris?

Before I could ask, the woman standing next to him suddenly sobbed. "Chris, did I cause you trouble again? I'm so sorry, Zara. I was sick. The doctor said it was serious and I needed someone to take care of me. You know as well that my parents live abroad. Chris is the only one I have in Jinovy.

"Please don't be mad at me, Zara. Once I recover, I'll give Chris back to you."

What a bitch! Her words would easily win Chris' heart while simultaneously hurt Zara's feelings. For some reason, the phone call was put on speaker mode. Zara's despondent wail entered my ears, shattering my heart into a million pieces. How could they do this to the cheerful Zara I knew?
