After Marrying His Brother, My Ex-boyfriend Went Crazy
Chapter 3
"I'm narrow-minded and hurt when I see another girl."
Aidan was well-known for playing around in his circle, and his attitude towards Aubree made me feel threatened.
Birdie's eyes were slightly red, as if deeply aggrieved, tears falling heavily.
"Mr. White, I've made Lucie angry. I shouldn't have come tonight..."
Aidan patiently comforted her. "Aubree, you're here because I brought you. No one can make you leave."
When Birdie looked at me, there was a hint of provocation and disdain in her eyes.
I stepped forward and slapped her. "Do you know your place, you bitch?"
Turning to Aidan, I said firmly, "Either break up with her or break up with me."
Aidan furrowed his brows, his voice still casual. "Lucie, are you deliberately making things difficult for me?"

The room fell silent.
Aubree stepped forward, ripped off my hearing aid, and threw it hard on the ground.
"I'm Mr. White's true love. You're just occupying the title of girlfriend. Have you no shame? Those who aren't loved are the third wheels!"
Birdie spoke boldly, steadfastly defending her so-called love.
Everyone present looked at each other, amazed at the girl's bravery.
I picked up the broken hearing aid from the ground and calmly said, "This hearing aid is a custom version worth thirty thousand dollars. How are you gonna compensate?"
Birdie looked terrified, glancing desperately at the man who was watching.
Aidan stepped forward, wrapping his arms around my waist, and softened his tone to calm me down. "Lucie, she didn't mean it. I'll cover the cost of the broken hearing aid."
I couldn't believe what I was hearing.
Whether Aubree was careless or intentional, anyone with eyes could see.
He almost indulged Birdie, with no questions asked or no blame.
I locked eyes with him, a bit forceful in my tone. "I can let go of her compensation, but she must sincerely apologize to me!"
Birdie lifted her misty eyes, looking pitiful.
Softly, she pleaded. "Mr. White..."
Aidan hid the young girl behind him, afraid I'd confront his Birdie.
He raised an eyebrow. "Lucie, I always thought you were reasonable. When did you start sweating the small stuff?"
Tears welled up from my eyes. "This hearing aid was my mom's legacy. She just broke it like that? Aidan, am I overreacting, or have you changed?"
A broken hearing aid could be replaced, but it was my mom's legacy!
Birdie shrank behind Aidan, submissive on the surface but defiant in her eyes.
Aidan's expression turned cold. "Lucie, don't go too far!"
My eyes were red from holding back tears stubbornly. "I just want her to apologize, and you're upset?"
Aidan's s also thought he was overreacting, coming over to try to mediate.
"Aidan, you've been with Lucie for seven years. Can't you talk this out?"
"Miss Brooks, it's getting late. You have class tomorrow morning! Let us take you home first!"
Birdie tugged at the man's sleeve, wanting him to choose between me and her.
Aidan gripped my wrist tightly, almost crushing my bones.
