Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother novel Chapter 6

Because of that, I swore that I would change.

My twisted relationship with Felix started when I was still in Mom's womb.

Aunt Mel and Mom were best friends, and coincidentally, they both lived right opposite each other on the same level in the same apartment block. Thus, our families were close to each other.

When Mom was pregnant with me, Felix was still a toddler who waddled around in diapers.

Aunt Mel had been watching Felix play under a tree and suggested, "Harper, if your child is a girl, she should just marry Felix so we could all be a happy family!"

Mom had replied, "Well, that's not up to me. We'll let her decide in the future."

"Felix, come here! Would you like the girl in Aunt Harper's belly to be your wife?" Aunt Mel asked.

Felix had laid in Mom's lap, giggling as he sucked on his thumb and mumbled the word "wife" repeatedly. He had amused Mom and Aunt Melinda so much that they decided to go ahead with the unofficial betrothal.

And just like that, my marriage was settled before I was even born.

By the time I understood what being a wife really meant, I had no say in the matter anymore. Besides, I wasn't opposed to being his wife either.

Ever since I was a kid, I had always acted in a way I thought wives were supposed to. In everything I did, I prioritized Felix's needs first.

Even if it was a snack, I would take a bite before keeping the rest for him. When he ate it, albeit unwillingly, I was ecstatic.

When we got older, I would hold on to both of our bags as he fought with the other students behind the school. I would cheer him on, risking the possibility of getting into trouble myself. Then, I would spend all my money to buy the medication for his wounds.

I would cheer him on when he was playing sports, yet all I received in return was a distasteful glare.
