Chapter 94
Eden swayed his hips as he walked toward Colin with a seductive expression. Colin lifted his leg and kicked him in exasperation.
Eden hit the wall as he groaned in pain.
I laughed along with them. Although I understood that Colin only saw me as a sister, I still pulled the covers over myself shyly. I didn’t want to listen to their teasing.
At that moment, I thought about how happy I would be if Colin could continue treating me so kindly.
But I knew it would be impossible. Colin was no longer young. He would find a proper girlfriend soon. He would get married and build a family.
By then, I would no longer be the woman he cherished the most.
But that was a situation for the future.
At least Colin still loved me the most right now. That was enough for me. When Colin found the one he loved, I would try my best to treat his girlfriend with kindness.
Queenie ignored my bashfulness and lifted the covers to expose me. “What’s wrong? How can you act
like that when you’re the one who turned yourself into such a mess?
“We’re using our time to come and visit you. We even spent our money to buy you a gift.”
I realized the small cabinet by the bed was full of fruits and snacks only then. They had bought all the
things I liked.
“I’m not the one who wanted to get sick. How can you blame me for that?” snatched the covers back.
Weren’t we roommates? How could she expose me like that?
“Who was to blame if not you? You used to sit in the cold wind each night.”
Queenie rolled her eyes dramatically.
She was just about to talk to Julia when Flynn dragged her to another bed, and they engaged in a heated
conversation.
I wanted to say something, but the words seemed stuck in my throat.
Julia sat beside my bad and narrowed her over at me. “Have you finally understood what you did wrong?”

“Yes. Colin already told me, I should not have helped deliver other people’s notes. Colin can choose his
future wife on his own.”
The atmosphere in the room immediately tensed when the words left my mouth. Most of their smiles
looked forced.
What did I say wrong again this time? Why were they all looking at me?
I subconsciously turned to look at Colin, only to see his smile falter momentarily before returning to his
usual gentle self.
Queenie and Julia were looking at me like I was hopeless. I was angry. So, I hid under the covers again
and ignored everyone there.
Queenie and Julia had always been like that. I admit that I wasn’t as smart or sensible as them, and they
would call me dumb sometimes, but I was slow. What could I do?
As my friends, shouldn’t they just tell me whenever I did something wrong? Why did they always make
me guess?
It was the same time as last time. They clearly knew why Colin was angry at me, yet they only scolded
me.
I ended up not seeing Colin for several days. If one of them had told me earlier. I would have tried my
best to explain things to Colin.
It’s the same thing again this time. Nevermind. I’d just ask Colin about it since he would not ignore me
now.
Later on
on, I did ask Colin about it while he helped me tie the shoelaces of new white shoes.
He was basking under the evening glow, making himself look like he was covered in gold.
He said, “It’s nothing. I’m not angry at you. You’re still young. You’ll understand when you’re older.”
