Chapter 8
I took a deep breath and responded directly, “Sibling? Have you ever seen siblings so intimate and sleeping in the same bed?
“As for your love… I’m sorry, I can’t feel it and I don’t care about it. The love of the Miles Family i beyond the reach of a fool like me.”
His eyes flickered and he was still making specious arguments. “I’m a normal man, I get impulsive sometimes, it was really just that one time. I know you mind, can’t I just break up with Edwina after the baby is born?”
I suddenly felt ridiculous.
He still did not understand that from the moment he climbed onto Edwina’s bed, we were completely finished.
As I turned to leave with Phoebe in his hand, Alec suddenly shouted in panic from behind, “Kimberley, are you serious?!”
Phoebe turned around, his eyes contemptuous as he answered for me, “When I saw you giving my wife a bad face every day in school, I wanted to beat you up a long time ago. Idiot! My wife was chasing you for three years and you were like a debt collector.”
Alec suddenly widened his eyes and shouted, “It’s you!”
***
Alec thought suddenly.
When he first got together with Kimberley, one morning when he was reading a book in the playground, that man was suddenly put a sack over his head and beaten severely.
The man beat him and cursed, “I asked you to hold my wife’s hand, I’ll beat you to death, you
pervert!”
He was beaten black and blue, but he never found out who did it.
After so many years, it turned out the culprit was right in front of him.
“Let me go!” He struggled frantically and wanted to rush forward to take revenge, but the security guards locked him up tightly and he had no way out.
Watching Kimberley being taken away by this old enemy, Alec became extremely angry and his breathing became more and more rapid.
His eyes were red and his chest was heaving violently. Suddenly, everything went black and he fell to the ground.

Back in the backstage lounge, I looked straight at Phoebe, “Are you hiding something from me?”
The man who just scolded Alec was completely different from the gentle and polite school idol in my memory.
I almost thought I was hallucinating.
Suddenly I remembered the time when he tutored me in my homework.

No matter how many times I made mistakes, he would patiently explain it over and over again, always with a reassuring smile on his face, “Don’t worry, take your time.”
Until one day, I saw him taking a deep breath towards the wall, muttering, “It doesn’t matter if wife is a little slow–witted. As long as I teach her patiently, she will definitely be able to learn.
my “If she still can’t learn, it must be because I didn’t teach her well enough. It definitely can’t be my wife’s problem.”
At the time I thought I had heard it wrong.
Under my gaze, Phoebe looked away uncomfortably as he explained, “You are like a frightened rabbit, running away with red eyes at the slightest sign of danger. If I hadn’t acted politely, you would have been scared away long ago.”
As he spoke, that handsome face suddenly came closer, with a flattering smile, “Wifey, you are not angry anymore, are you?”
I could not help but burst out laughing.
Suddenly I discovered that this Phoebe was even more lively and lovely than the perfect polite school idol before.

In the hospital, when Alec opened his eyes, he found four people surrounding the bed.
His parents, Edwina and Edwina’s father.
Before he was fully awake, Alec’s mother spoke anxiously, “Alec, even if Kimberley, that heartless woman, got married in a flash, it’s not worth it for you to faint from anger. How is she worthy of you?”
“The most urgent thing now is your marriage with Edwina. Her father came here specially today to discuss the wedding.”
Alec was confused and found it hard to accept, “Mom, Edwina is just a sibling for me, why should I marry her? What a joke!”
