Chapter 2

“Hello, I’m Zea.”

Zea held Amber’s hand back, but she still couldn’t say the word “sister”.

Just when Zea was about to let go of Amber’s hand, she suddenly heard Amber “hiss” and then quickly let go of Zea’s hand.

Before Zea could react, Theo had already held Amber’s hand nervously.

A scratch suddenly appeared on Amber’s fair middle finger.

Amber covered her hand and tears instantly filled her eyes.

“I don’t know what Zea was wearing on her hand and it suddenly scratched my hand. Theo, my hand hurts so much.”

Theo glanced at the ring on Zea’s hand and frowned.

“Why did you wear this ring again? You knew there was a crack on the ring, but you still wore it. Did you do it on purpose?”

Theo’s tone was a bit heavy and even the corners of his eyes were red.

Zea looked down at the daisy-shaped ring on her hand and she swallowed back her grievances.

This was the last thing her mother left for her. Theo searched for it for three days and three nights under the ruins of the Simmons Family.

“I originally thought that you were my sister, so I chose to bring Amber to meet you on your birthday. I didn’t expect you to treat Amber like this. Zea, you really disappoint me.”

Before Zea could explain, Theo looked at Zea with anger on his face and blamed her.

“Theo, don’t be mean to Zea. She didn’t mean it.”

Amber held Theo’s hand with a gentle tone.

Hearing Amber’s voice, Theo’s anger was extinguished instantly and he pulled her hand tightly.

“You are so considerate that you are always bullied. Does it still hurt? I’ll take you to apply medicine.”

After that, Theo hugged Amber and walked to the end of the corridor.

Zea just watched the two of them walk away quietly, without any ripples.

Theo was her step-brother and also her childhood sweetheart.

The two families were old friends and lived opposite each other, so they grew up together since childhood.

Until they were young, a fire trapped Theo and Zea in the sea of ​​fire.

That night, everyone in the Guzman Family went out and Zea's father and mother rushed in without hesitation.

The two were rescued safely, but Zea’s parents were trapped in the fire forever.

It only took one night for her to go from a little princess who was loved by thousands to an orphan.

Later, the Guzman Family adopted Zea.

Zea also became Theo’s stepsister.

On the day Zea stepped into the Guzman Family, Theo swore that he would treat Zea well for the rest of his life.

Zea also believed Theo’s words and really thought that he would protect her for the rest of her life.

Until Theo’s eighteenth birthday, Zea gave him a crystal ball.

All her secrets from him were hidden in that crystal ball.

She was full of expectations, but the next day, she found the crystal ball she gave him in the trash can.

The once unwavering vows also pushed them further and further away.

Zea took a deep breath and pushed the door into the box.

Although this party was prepared for Zea’s birthday, in fact, Zea didn’t know many of the people who came.

As soon as they saw Zea come in, those who were talking loudly just now shut up.
