Tangled in his Obsession novel Chapter 171

Seraphina blinked, looking at her calmly.

Sandra locked eyes with her for a moment, finally withdrew her hand, but immediately turned and headed out of the store.

Seraphina put down the clothes in her hand, smiled at the cashier, then turned and chased after Sandra.

In the busiest commercial area of the city, Sandra was wandering aimlessly until Seraphina reached out and led her into a restaurant.

It wasn’t mealtime, so there weren't many customers in the restaurant. Seraphina picked a seat by the window, which was pretty vacant, and then sat down with Sandra.

After ordering two drinks, Seraphina looked at her again, "So, aren't you going to spill the beans?”

Sandra lowered her head in silence for a while, then slowly said, “I don't know how to tell you...”

“When did this start?” Seraphina asked.

Sandra slowly exhaled, finally deciding to say, “After Mom and Dad passed away, he told me he's not my real brother…”

Hearing this, Seraphina let out a sigh of relief, calmly watching her, waiting for her to continue.

Though Sandra had never thought of telling others many things, once she started, it didn't seem so hard.

When Bowen told her that he was not her real brother, she was dumbstruck. Her first thought was her parents had just died, and now her brother was also going to leave her.

Despite her reluctance to believe it, Bowen was able to convince her of the truth when he presented a DNA test report.

“Mom and Dad had been married for over ten years without children, so they adopted me.” Bowen said to her, “I came to this family when I was seven, and to my surprise, you were born the next year.”

Looking at the report, Sandra finally had to accept the fact, but she still found it unbelievable, “But all this time, Mom and Dad treated us the same.”

“Exactly, in their eyes, I was their own son.” Bowen patted her head, “I'm grateful to them, so I'll take good care of you as long as you still consider me your brother.”

“Of course!” Sandra hugged him tightly, looking up at him, “You are my brother, forever!”

Bowen looked at her, smiling, his eyes sparkling.

But once you knew some things, it was hard to keep things as they were compared to when you didn't know.

Later, whenever Sandra was close to him, she would unconsciously remember that they didn't share a bloodline. As she grew up, she knew there should be some boundaries between men and women, so she became more and more unnatural when facing Bowen.

But no one expected that this unnaturalness would gradually turn into another feeling...

“Did you fall for him first?” Seraphina asked.

Sandra slowly nodded.

Seraphina then asked, “When did he respond to your feelings?”

“He…” Sandra seemed at a loss for words, biting her lip lightly. After a while, she finally spoke again, “I always feel that he doesn't really like me…”

Seraphina couldn't help but frown, "Why do you say that?”

“I was the first one to realize my feelings, so I started avoiding him.” Sandra said, “Only after I started avoiding him did he start getting close to me… Sera, I always feel that he accepted me because he didn’t want to let down our parents’ expectations, but in reality, his heart might not be with me…”

“So, are you still unsure about this relationship up till now?” Seraphina asked.

Sandra nodded.

“Then end it.” Seraphina said, “Tell him you want to break up, cut ties.”

Sandra looked at her in surprise.
