As if feeling Evangeline's resentment, Zion whispered, "If Rita was bullied, I would also feel sorry for her."
In other words, he only treated Sissaye as his younger sister. Wasn't Zion the one who caused Sissaye to act like that?
Thinking of this, Evangeline suddenly felt that she was unreasonable.
After all, she had Zion by her side to dote on, but what about Sissaye?
Since she could not get him to become her boyfriend, she could not become Zion's mere buddies as well.
As expected, the brother- sister relationship that was tainted with love was so lamentable.
Evangeline's gaze made Zion feel uncomfortable.
What did this woman mean?
Had she become my scapegoat for Sissaye now?
This woman was really a contradictory individual!
Although he thought so, Zion didn't say anything else.
Outside, Sissaye might really be heartbroken. At first, she cried a little hard, but then she cried louder and louder. In the end, she gave up her dignity and began to cry. Evangeline felt her nose ache.
If it weren't for the fact that she had spent 20 years chasing after Zion, she would have let it go
Just when Evangeline was about to lose control, another car sound came from outside, followed by a familiar male voice.
"He won't see you crying here. Besides, he won't feel distressed even if he sees it. Why do you have to do that?"
It was Benjamin!
Sissaye had been wronged to the point of death. When she heard Benjamin's words, she felt even more aggrieved.
"Shut up! Go away! Can I be alone for a while?"
"Are you quiet? Sissaye, can't you be a little bit more promising? If others don't like you, do you have to torture yourself like this? He doesn't like you, not because you are not excellent, but because you two are not fated. Since there is no fate, why do you force it? Isn't it good to take a step back and be brother and sister again? Can't you guys comrades for the rest of your lives?"
"No!"
Sissaye suddenly roared.
"What do you know? You don't know anything!"
"I don't understand, but I know what it feels like to have a crush on someone else."
There was a bitter smile on Benjamin's lips.
At this time, he had lost his usual playful smile and his previous casual attitude. Instead, he was gloomy and made people feel sorry for him.
Sissaye was slightly stunned. She seemed to have realized something, but she subconsciously rejected it.
"How did you know I'm here?"
"The boss told me."
Benjamin said the truth.
Sissaye's eyes were once again moist.
"He wants to send me out and then have a good time with Evangeline, doesn’t he? He's dreaming! I just want to live a bad life! I just want to torture myself! I just don't want him and Evangeline to be happy! Why should I be sad, but they are fine? Why should he push me to you when he got happiness himself? Am I an object? Or something? Don't he push me to his best buddy when he doesn't want me?"
As soon as Sissaye finished speaking, Benjamin directly slapped her.
This slap directly shocked Sissaye.
Tears welled up in her eyes as she looked at Benjamin. She looked at the most feelingness man in the group who was looking at her with a face full of anger and seriousness. She couldn't help but ask, "Did you hit me?"
"Yes, I hit you! So did you wake up from the beating?"
Benjamin's hands were clenched tightly together.
Beating Sissaye made him sad, but he had to do so.
Now, Sissaye was in a daze. She was even a little paranoid. He was really afraid that Sissaye would go the wrong way because of her stubbornness.
