A Love Trap

Upon seeing the look in Angelina's eyes, Jeremy couldn't help but frown.

'What is wrong with her?' Jeremy silently thought.

Even if he didn't have the full picture, Jeremy didn't want it to escalate any further. He also didn't want his parents to know about it right then.

Before anything else, he had to discuss this matter with his father.

Although Belinda had been getting better since this girl whom they thought was Camelia came back, her body might not be able to handle such big news.

Hence, Jeremy thought that he should really think about the consequences of this matter blew up.

He had already decided that whatever he would do, he had to minimize the harm that might come out of it.

Otherwise...

Thinking about the implications, Jeremy closed his eyes for a while. He couldn't imagine how furious Belinda might be if she found out about it.

It would be better not to tell her about it right then.

He then turned to Angelina and softly said, "I will send you abroad in a few days. I will also transfer some money to your bank account. Don't come back unless it's absolutely necessary. More importantly, if Mom and Dad ask you, tell them that you just want to go abroad and that's it.

You can go now. Someone will pick you up tomorrow. You can pack your things tonight."

Then, he turned around as if he didn't want to see Angelina anymore.

Because of what he said, Angelina collapsed to the floor. At that point, she didn't know how to react or what to do.

"Jeremy, no, you can't do this to me!" Angelina begged him while pulling on his sleeves.

"I may not be your sister, but we've lived together for so many years. Please don't do this to me, Brother!"
