Chapter 9
“Asshole!” Edwina’s father roared, “My
daughter is pregnant with your child and you
call her just a sibling for you?!”
Alec’s mother looked at her husband
awkwardly.
Alec’s father cleared his throat and said, “We,
Miles, should be responsible for this matter. I
think we should get married next month. Our
Miles Family will cover all the wedding
expenses. Mr. Frey, what do you think?”

Before Edwina’s father could answer, Alec
suddenly sat up from the hospital bed and
looked at Edwina anxiously, “Edwina, please
say something! Didn’t we agree that you will
raise the child after it is born and not interfere
with my marriage with Kimberley?”
Edwina lowered her head, her voice as thin as
a mosquito, “I never said such words, you
forced me to do so.”
Edwina’s father slapped Alec hard in the face.
“So, you want to be my daughter’s sibling,
just because you want her to raise her own

child? I don’t understand the circles of you
young people, but my Frey Family will never
accept such a thing!”
After scolding Alec, he said to Alec’s father,
“Mr. Miles, I’m making this clear today. If your
Miles Family doesn’t fulfill this responsibility,
I’m going to go to your workplace and make
trouble to see how your Miles Family will be
ruined!”
After Edwina’s father slammed the door and
left, the ward fell into deathly silence.

Alec, looked at each other and ultimately did
not dare to say a word.
However, since Alec was being slapped for
no apparent reason, he was furious, “Edwina,
tell me clearly, when did I force you?”
Edwina pursed her lips and suddenly did not
want to pretend anymore, “Alec, can we stop
being siblings? I have liked you for so many
years and I can only approach you as a
brother.
“Don’t you have feelings for me too?
Otherwise how could we have a child? Now

us to be together?”
Alec was struck by lightning.

Looking at the shy woman in front of him, he
remembered that he was arm in arm with her
and even did that kind of thing with her.
His stomach suddenly started to churn.
At this moment, he finally realized that he had
really betrayed Kimberley.

“Get out!” he gritted his teeth.
Edwina bit her lower lip unwillingly and
reasoned, “You are obviously very happy when you are with me. You either despise or scold Kimberley, think carefully, who do you
like?”
Alec felt incredible, looked at her as if she were a stranger and said coldly, “I will never like you in my life.”
Edwina’s tears welled up in her eyes.

She had planned everything, but she forgot
that Alec would never be able to overcome
the hurdle of being a ‘sibling.’
Filled with shame and anger, she rushed out

ready to set off for our honeymoon.
As soon as I walked out to open the door, I
saw Alec standing in the rain.
He was soaking wet, his face was terribly
pale and his lips were purple.

Raindrops dripped down his hair, mixed with
tears from the corners of his eyes as he
added, “I didn’t expect Edwina to be so
scheming. She used the name of siblinghood
to tie me down.
“You reminded me so many times, but I never
believed you. I have always misunderstood
you.”
His eyes were red, but my heart was
unusually calm. Because the time he finally
understood my pain and chose to stand by
me, it was too late.

He grabbed my hand tremblingly and
pleaded, “I called you stupid and scolded you
for being a troublemaker. You have suffered a
lot over the years. I know all about it. I will
definitely change in the future.”
