I did everything for my childhood friend.
But after ten years of devotion, all I got was betrayal?
“It hurts my heart to let you dream foolish dreams. I was just being a little kind, that’s all.”
What kind of nonsense is that supposed to be?
Hearing him talk as if I were a fool snapped me wide awake.
Fine. I’ll throw someone like you away and live a brand-new life!
The childhood friend who clenched his teeth in resentment—
his half-brother, Joshua, approached me instead.
He should’ve been hostile toward me, if anything,
but why was he being so kind?
I suspected he had some ulterior motive, but—
“Why did you only come now? I’ve been waiting for you for so long.”
He spoke sweetly, treating me with gentle affection.
Then, to me—who had been ignored by everyone because of my childhood friend’s neglect—
he made a pleading proposal.
“Use me, Alicia.”
The moment I chose him,
my childhood friend, who had always ignored me, said—
“I’ll give you tonight. You’re the most important person to me, aren’t you?”
Only now, he clung to me desperately.
Are you kidding me?
With me?
