“You knew this all along, didn't you?" Annis said, her eyes growing even redder as tears continued rolling down her cheeks.

Actually, Alick was quite surprised to learn this.

It prompted him to observe Annis' face and found that she really didn't resemble either Cathy or Nelson.

At first, she thought she was a wealthy young lady, but that didn't turn out to be the case. "I know how you're feeling," Alick said, trying to comfort her.

“Waaaah. No, you don't. You don't understand!"

She kept bawling, each whimper sadder than the last.

Alick opened the door and put her on the bed. "You might be adopted, but Nelson treated you Like you were his own. You don't have to be so sad...

“But the person closest to me isn't related to me by blood! Do you have any idea how that feels?!" Annis cried with a sniffle.

Alick didn't know what else to say. He just sighed and put her on the bed. "Get some rest. Maybe that will help you forget about your troubles."

In his mind, it didn't matter whether two people were biologically related or not.

As long as their relationship was sincere, that was all that mattered. Before Alick could leave, Annis stopped him. "Don't go," she murmured.

“I'm scared to be alone.”

Alick looked back and shook his head. "No. I have to go back to Azmar. I don't have time—"

Before he could finish his words, Annis wrapped her arms around Alick's neck and began kissing him

Alick's eyes widened as he felt her Lips moving against his.

Even though her lips were soft, he could tell that she was inexperienced.

She was just blindly nibbling on his mouth.

"You... You're drunk." Alick pushed her away.

Despite that, Annis held on to his collar and said, "I won't let you go."

Then, she pounced on him once again

Her mind was no longer working properly. ALL she knew was that she needed someone to accompany her at that moment.

Annis had a good figure and smooth skin. With her so close, Alick could feel her chest rubbing against his body.

Alick swallowed the Lump in his throat as he said, "If you keep acting like this, I might not be able to control myself. Don't blame me if something—"

Before he could even finish what he was saying, Annis had already wrapped her legs around his waist.

Damn it! Could he really resist the temptation?
