Rose Blooms: Tear off the Fake Mask of Boyfriend
Chapter 4
Before I could say anything, he went out in a huff.
I felt inexplicable and clicked open my cell phone to complain to Vivian, my best friend.
When she replied to my message, I quietly saw Jack James leaning on the door frame and looking at me.
I waved to him to come over.
"Sister, are you fighting with Cruz?"
His eyes were red as if he had been crying.
I felt sorry for him instantly.
During holidays and festivals, Cruz was the most welcoming one to me in his family.
He saved up money for a long time to buy me lollipops.
He shared his favorite toys with me.
Whenever I left, he always looked reluctant.
He was muttering that Cruz should hurry up and marry me.
I thought to myself, "What does it have to do with kids when it comes to my marriage?"
I touched his head.
"Of course not. I am getting along with your brother."
"Really? You're not lying to me?"
James stared at me with wide eyes.
I nodded.
"Will you marry my brother?"
I was stunned. I didn't expect him to ask that.
"Well, you still can't marry my brother."
James burst into tears suddenly.
I hurriedly comforted him.
I told him that I would marry Cruz. Then he stopped crying.
He turned around and started playing with his toys.
I jokingly asked him casually, "Why do you like me so much? Why do you want me to marry your brother?"
...
James fiddled with his toys.
Looking serious, she said, "My mom tells me that if you marry into our family, you will buy me a house, and a car, and find a wife for me."
...
"Your money is my brother's money. My brother's money is mine."
As soon as I heard him say so, the toy in my hands fell to the ground.
Judging from James's serious look, he didn't seem to be acting.
If it weren't for the adults mentioning these things frequently, a six-year-old child wouldn't earnestly say these words without being influenced.
...
A burst of chill ran down my spine.
I felt the urge to escape from here.
