Sean was actually quite afraid of his sister. If his early romance was discovered by their mother, his allowance might be cut in half. He turned to look at the innocent girl standing behind him, his eyes filled with conflict and hesitation.
However, Mikaela was not like the other proud and haughty heiresses. Her purity, aloofness, hidden kindness, and occasional tenderness attracted Sean. Moreover, he had carefully prepared tonight's candlelit dinner, booked the seat at great expense, and had a condom ready in his pocket... all for furthering his relationship with Mikaela.
With his hand hidden in his suit pocket, he clenched the small square package tightly and then slowly released it.
Seeing him remain silent, Nora knew she was right. Sean was a bit rebellious, but he still cared about his family's opinions. Plus, he was accustomed to a life of abundance and luxury. If he were asked to live a life of hardship, he would be the first one to complain about it.
They had been together for two years, and he couldn't even say a word in his defense. Mikaela felt a deep sense of disappointment.
Just then, a more embarrassing and infuriating incident occurred. A small square package slipped from Sean's pocket as he reached out to grab Mikaela. The deep blue package stood out against the golden floor. It had a circular shape. Nora only glanced at it briefly before Sean nervously picked it up.
Even though Nora couldn't see what was written on the package, she knew that it was a condom. Her face turned bright red, and she couldn't believe her younger brother, whom she still considered "young," had grown to such an extent.
Eighteen years old... a time of curiosity about the world.
Next, she thought that the girl in front of her had seduced Sean, and her eyes filled with scorn.
"My brother thought you were a nice, pure and aloof girl, but it turns out you're just a prostitute who opens her legs to make money! How does it feel to sleep with Sean? Sean is much more generous than your sugar daddy outside, isn't he? Who do you think you are? Are you worth one hundred and twenty thousand?"
Nora's words were vulgar and direct, completely unlike what one would expect from a refined lady. Her voice was also quite loud, drawing the attention of other diners in the restaurant.
Men gazed at Mikaela and Nora with suggestive, lustful eyes, seemingly comparing their body shapes. In the end, they concluded that the girl with long straight hair had the better figure.
Mikaela came from a poor family, but she carried herself with the demeanor of an heiress. She had maintained her "aloof and proud" attitude for so many years, and she couldn't tolerate Nora's vulgar insults.
In tears, she looked at Sean, her voice cold as she declared, "We're breaking up!"
After unilaterally announcing the breakup, Mikaela picked up her handbag from the chair and hurriedly left.
"Mikaela! Please listen to my explanation."
Sean, desperate to chase after her, was suddenly stopped by someone grabbing his sleeve.
He anxiously turned to look at his sister, Nora, who was staring at him with a cold, detached expression. "Don't go, Sean. Didn't you hear her say that she's broken up with you?"
