Chapter 2554: Chapter 27: Biting Back
Molly Wellington’s heart hurt, as if something had been hollowed out.
But she knew, some things needed to be clarified.
If Abraham Redington had returned a little earlier, she might have had the courage to stop everything and face her own heart.
Even if he just liked to tease her, even if it meant she had to chase after him, so what?
But now, there are less than two months until her college entrance exams, and after those exams will be her engagement party with Ben Lucas.
Their engagement party has long been widely announced, with notifications sent to relatives and friends.
The face of the Lucas family, the face of the Wellington family, and the many emotions that have to be considered.
Molly Wellington doesn’t have the courage to make her godmother, who loves her as a daughter, sad and disappointed, nor does she have the face to tell Brother Charlie she’s betrayed him.
Thinking about this, the young lady took a deep breath, mustered the courage to face the cold blue eyes of Abraham Redington: "I am your brother’s fiancée."
She said calmly, using the calmest voice.
"What we’re doing is wrong... Abraham, I don’t know why you kissed me, but we should end this before everyone finds out."
Just cut off all ties, like the past ten years.
Molly Wellington’s speech was uncharacteristically serious and solemn, her lively and cute face clearly blushing, almond-shaped eyes shining, dimples smiling.
But now, she showed a serious and solemn demeanor.
And Abraham Redington hated her being so serious and solemn.
He wanted to tear apart her calm disguise, wanted her to show cowardice, so he could bully her relentlessly.
The man’s cold blue eyes darkened, and the hand on her shoulder suddenly tightened, "Ha, how childish and ridiculous... Talking about ending everything before anyone finds out, like we’re having an affair. Molly Wellington, you can’t be stupid enough to think I kissed you because I like you?"
"..." Molly Wellington didn’t dare say yes, even though she had indeed hoped for that.
Seeing the girl’s watery eyes flickering but not speaking, the cold color in Abraham’s blue eyes grew heavier.
He said hoarsely, "Don’t be foolish, if not for you seducing me, and me coincidentally having a physiological need..."
A sharp, dull pain made Molly Wellington’s heart ache.
"Physiological... need?" She spoke, with a tremble in her voice.
"What else then." Abraham deliberately ignored the fleeting vulnerability in her eyes, "Oh, to be serious, besides that, there seems to be another reason."
"What reason?" The girl asked without thinking.
She suddenly felt breathing hurt, so much it involuntarily made her want to cry.
But the eldest daughter of the Wellington family is a stubborn little person, who cries when kissed, but won’t cry from mockery.
When Abraham kissed her, she would shed tears, but when he mocked her coldly, she would wear the hardest disguise.
"To... annoy Ben Lucas." Abraham’s azure almond-shaped eyes had lost the initial longing and returned to what they were, even colder than before.
He stared at the girl who seemed about to cry, yet desperately biting her lip not to shed tears.
Word by word, he said, "You know, I have always hated being bossed around by him, and even more disliked calling him brother. You are his fiancée, if he knows I slept with his fiancée, won’t he be very upset? Ha, putting Ben Lucas in a cuckold, good."
Having said this, the man’s slender fingers pinched the girl’s delicate little chin, forcefully clamping her cheeks, easily separating her tightly closed lips.
"Molly Wellington, the one who actively seduced me was you, if you don’t want Ben Lucas to know... you’d better behave."
With that, the man’s cool thin lips covered the girl’s forcibly parted little mouth again.
This time, without any pity, Abraham heavily bit her lip—
