After Marrying His Brother, My Ex-boyfriend Went Crazy

Aidan bought an apartment near her school and moved Aubree in.

Friends warned me to keep a closer eye on him, fearing Birdie might steal him away.

I smiled, saying nothing.

Aidan seemed genuinely into Aubree, not showing signs of getting bored even after half a year.

On my birthday, Aidan invited his friends to help celebrate with me.

His Birdie, Aubree, was among them.

It was pouring rain that day, and by the time I got to the hotel, my clothes were already soaked.

The door to the private room was half-open, and Aidan was holding Birdie close, their actions intimate, like a couple deeply in love.

Birdie was sitting on his lap, her fair arms wrapped around his neck.

Aidan was holding her head, their lips locked in a passionate kiss.

Seeing this, I felt like I had been struck by ice, a chill spreading through my entire body.

Aidan's bestie teased. "You're playing around so much, won't Lucie be heartbroken when she finds out?"

Aidan, with a cigarette in his mouth, lazily replied, "Lucie's already been tainted. Do you really expect me to marry her?"

His bestie smirked. "You've been with Lucie for so many years, never thought of marrying her?"

Aidan chuckled. "Remember when she was kidnapped? The police and I searched for her for three days and nights. When we found her, her clothes were messy. Can you guess what happened?"

His bestie's eyes gleamed with curiosity. "But Lucie does have a pretty face and a great figure. Can you really bear to leave her?"

Birdie snorted. "Is her face as pretty as mine? Is her figure as attractive as mine?"

Aidan hugged her tightly, affectionately saying, "Aubree, you are the most beautiful. No one can compare to you."

Birdie playfully kissed him on the cheek.

His bestie advised. "Play around all you want, just don't go too far."

Aidan sneered. "Lucie is deaf in her left ear. She's practically half-deaf without her hearing aid. Besides me, who else would want her?"

My feet felt icy cold, and my heart felt like it had been pricked all over by tiny needles.

In his eyes, I wasn't just tainted; I was also physically flawed.

His bestie kindly warned. "Lucie's almost here; tone it down!"

Aidan released Birdie from his grasp, allowing her to sit next to his bestie.

Birdie muttered discontentedly, reluctantly getting off his lap.

I composed myself, took a deep breath, and walked in as if everything was normal.

Aidan blew a smoke ring and patted the seat next to him, gesturing for me to sit down.

"Lucie, you're the star tonight. Why are you so late?"

I smoothed out my soaking wet hair, looking quite disheveled.

Aidan's million-dollar luxury car was parked at the hotel entrance, with Birdie's lipstick deliberately left on the front passenger seat.

He went to pick up Aubree but didn't come to pick me up.

Aidan's teased. "Lucie, did you fall into a ditch? Why do you look like a drowned rat?"

I met his gaze squarely. "I took the bus here. I can't compete with those who come in chauffeured cars."

Aidan lazily raised his eyes and pulled me into his arms. "Why are you speaking so sourly? Who upset you?"

Aubree sized me up, her eyes full of jealousy and resentment.

I broke free from his embrace and said seriously, "Aidan, I can't control what you do outside, but don't bring people in front of me."
