Chapter 315 - Like a single colour (1/2)

The residence brother gave Arthur was fairly fancy. It stood out a great deal. Lyn immediately understood why. Was eldest brother waiting this entire time to find evidence that Arthur is innocent? Rhys brought her inside the building; it surprised her that Rhys seemed to know where he was going. He stopped in front of a door and kicked it open. There she saw Arthur with a woman, the woman was leaning against him, and Arthur looked bothered.

”Lyn!” Arthur immediately hurried over. The woman by his side frowned, and Lyn felt her hostile gaze on her. ”What's wrong? What happened to you? Why do you look so pale, and you have scratches?”

”Something's wrong with her eye. Let's both check it out.”

Arthur nodded, ”Lay her down.”

Rhys gently did so, but not before he gently kissed her lips. ”Wait, don't do that.”

”I'm just warning Arthur. Don't go near Lyn.”

Arthur rolled his eyes and sighed, ”You haven't changed at all. You're still a brat,” he made his way over and brushed his hands on her forehead. ”Lyn, while we do this process, why don't you go to sleep?”

”Okay,” Lyn nodded in agreement. She doesn't like being awake when it comes to treatment. It always made her feel nervous.

...

When Lyn woke up, the sun had already gone down. She has a terrible habit of passing out lately. A deep sigh escaped her lips, how troublesome. Lyn somehow got up and made her way out of the door. After walking for a few minutes, she paused.

The sight she saw shocked her, Rhys had somebody pinned against the wall. His hands ran through the girl's thighs and b.r.e.a.s.ts. Rhys turned to her; a l.u.s.tful expression remained there.

”I'm sorry,” Lyn apologized. ”I just wanted some water.”

Rhys eyes settled on her before he turned to the woman he was with. ”Leave.”

”But--”

”Go.”

Rhys seemed hot and bothered; his large hands ran through his hair. ”Why did you get up?” his tone quickly changed. ”You should have waited.”

”I'm fine,” Lyn nodded. ”What happened to Arthur?”

”He's just making your food.”

Lyn nodded again and looked away. Just now, what was Rhys doing? That was… Then again, even though he made that promise with her, Lyn knew better than for him to keep it.

”So um...um..”

Rhys walked over and picked her up, ”Rhys?”

”Back to bed.”

”Okay.”

Rhys carried her back into the room and laid her down on the bed. Lyn reached out for his hand, ”Wait a minute, tell me something...did brother...did my brother tell you?”

”About the marriage candidate?”

”Yes.. So he told you?”

Rhys nodded, ”He told me.”

”You're not happy?”

”Why would I? You're just using me for Kazuya's sake.”

Shoot, how did she get found out so soon? Lyn looked down, ”I'm sorry, but you know I've been doing a lot of thinking lately.”

”That won't cut it for me,” Rhys snapped. ”I love you, and until your married, I won't change my advances. Well, now you gave me a legit reason to pursue you instead of hiding in the shadows.”

What does he mean by that? Lyn was utterly oblivious to his words. When he suddenly went on the bed and climbed on top of her. His lips on hers.

Why is Rhys kissing her - no kissing her like this? No matter how many times she's instructed him, he would always randomly kiss her, so it doesn't surprise her anymore. But, this kind of kiss is so painful. However, this kiss did not last long since Arthur yanked Rhys away. Rhys looked at him coldly before he marched out of the room.

”I'm sorry, Lyn, did he scare you?”

”No,” it just took her by surprise how desperate that kiss was.

Arthur smiled, ”You've always made excuses for him. Don't you think it's time to just be honest?”
