"What?" Rosalie was shocked. "What happened to them?"


    Sebastian looked down, a forlorn look in his eyes as he retold to Rosalie what happened to him when he was young.


    Rosalie fell silent after listening to Sebastian''s story. There was a heavy look in her eyes as she stared at Sebastian.


    Why must his father be so vicious?


    "So, do you see why now?" Sebastian''s eyes were filled with fatigue. "I don''t want to resist him anymore. I''m afraid he might hurt you. He''s capable of anything, so I''ve changed my mind. I''ll get married. I''ve said all I wanted to say. Goodbye."


    With that, Sebastian turned to leave.


    Rosalie hurriedly stood up, and grabbed his sleeve. "Seb, are you epting your father''s arrangement because you''re worried about me?"


    Sebastian turned around, and smiled tenderly at her. "Rose, please don''t feel burdened by it. This is my destiny. I''m just submitting to it. I know you intend to leave, and you must go far away. It''s best we never meet again, and this might be ourst time seeing each other."


    Rosalie''s heart raced, feeling some kind of emotion exploding in her heart. "No, this won''t be thest time we see each other. Don''t be so pessimistic!"


    Seeing tears welling up in Rosalie''s eyes, Sebastian lifted his hand and wiped them away. "Please don''t cry. I can''t stand seeing you cry. You''ve already cried so much for another man. You can''t be crying for me, too. I don''t want to be that kind of bastard.”


    With that, he gently shook off Rosalie''s hold and left her house.


    "Seb, where are you going?" Rosalie followed him anxiously.


    "Rose, don''t follow me. Have a good rest, please... I''m begging you," Sebastian said, choking before closing the door with a m.


    Rosalie wanted to run after him, but seeing how determined he was to leave, she knew that going after him would only put him in a difficult spot. What''s more, she really didn''t have any ideas to solve the problem that he was currently facing.


    Rosalie sat back down on the couch in her living room, and sighed.Exclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org.


    How could she leave with Sebastian in this state? Would she really never be able to see him after she left?


    Soon after, her phone rang. She wished it was Sebastian, but it turned out to be Yvonne instead.


    She thought Yvonne must be calling because of Sebastian, and immediately answered the call. "Hey, Vonnie. How''s your brother?"


    Yvonne was stunned for a moment before saying, "Rose, you''re really concerned for my brother. You''re actually asking about him right from the get- go."


    "Of course I''m concerned for him. I''m sure you know what''s happening to your brother."


    "Yeah," Yvonne said helplessly, "I do.


    After my brother gets married, it


    even


    might be my turn soon. I don''t know what I should do now. All these years, my brother has been my shield and my dad doesn''t care much about me. But now, think I''m about to get unlucky soon."


    "What about your mom? Does your mom have nothing to say about your dad doing this?"


    "What can she say?" Yvonne smiled


    bitterly. "My mom doesn''t care about anything. To put it nicely, she''s very zen about things. To put it bluntly she doesn''t have a good rtionship with my dad. They''ve been cold warring with each other over the years."


    Realization dawned upon Rosalie.


    An unhappy home was often riddled with tragedies.
