Love at First Novel by Gu Lingfei

Shiloh, the girl they had raised as their sister, wasn't actually related to them by blood.

She was the daughter of the former butler-a man whose ambition had driven him to place his own child at the head of the Farrell I family.

Sage fell silent.

Kathryn's voice broke through the tension.

"Third brother, let me out.

You already have me.

Do you really think I'll escape? Just let me out-it's too stuffy in here, and I can barely breathe." For a moment, Sage hesitated.

Not out of brotherly love.

If there was even a shred of that left, he would have tried to stop his brothers instead of going along with them.

If life had been fair, she would have had five older brothers who cared for her.

But life wasn't fair.

Dut Instead, she had five brothers who wanted her dead.

Had she failed as a person, or were they just too heartless? Sage finally said, "Stay where you are, Kathryn.

We'll let you out when it's time." He couldn't risk letting her see where they were taking her.

If she escaped, she would go straight to the police, and then they would all be finished.
