Sacha started crying. And she was crying really sorrowfully.
Evan shook her arm and said, “Speak up, what truth?”
“It’s all because of you, and you have the audacity to ask?” Sacha grabbed his arm and started biting. This was already the second time she had bitten Evan.
Evan winced in pain, “Are you an animal?”
Why did she keep biting people?
“You’re the animal…” Sacha continued to sob.
“If you keep insulting me, don’t blame me for being impolite to you.”
“If you dare, hit me.” Sacha plopped down on the floor. Her hair was disheveled, and the smell of alcohol was overwhelming. She looked quite disheveled.
Evan rolled up his sleeves, glanced at the bite marks on his arm, and muttered, “This is just unreasonable.”
At this point, the front desk had already completed his check-out process. Evan was about to leave when Sacha hugged his leg tightly, “It’s all because of you, you’re not going anywhere.”
Evan lowered his head and wondered if she was mentally ill. Otherwise, why would she act so irrational, saying things that made no sense?
He forcefully pried Sacha’s hand off, quickly walked towards the exit, and when he reached the door, he saw Sacha still sitting on the ground, crying. He hesitated for a while, as if debating whether or not to go and check on her. People passing through the lobby would point and whisper about a girl sitting on the ground. Some men even approached her, taking advantage of the opportunity to strike up a conversation. Evan worried that she might be taken advantage of, so he turned back and chased away the man who was trying to talk to her.
“Is her room ready?” asked Evan.
The front desk attendant replied, “Yes, it’s ready.” Then she handed him the key card.
Evan took it and picked up Sacha from the ground. “It’s only because you’re Mr Silverton’s sister that I’m even bothering with you.”
Sacha’s tears flowed even more fiercely.
“Don’t cry.”
“I’m not Elijah’s sister… I’m not my dad’s daughter, nor my mom’s daughter. I was adopted…” Sacha cried.
Elijah and Eric Lowe met, and she went to eavesdrop. She thought her father could reveal the secret about the graveyard from Elijah’s mouth. But instead, she heard Eric telling Elijah that she wasn’t born to Joan Nash, she was adopted. Therefore, Sacha wasn’t Elijah’s half-sister. She was nothing but an abandoned orphan. She was just fortunate enough to be adopted by Eric and Joan. This news was like a bolt from the blue for her, something she couldn’t accept.
“Do you understand how I feel right now?” Sacha’s eyes were red, tears streaming down her face.
Evan was quite surprised by this turn of events. Now, as he carefully examined Sacha’s appearance, she indeed didn’t resemble Joan, nor did she look much like Eric. She had always believed herself to be a wealthy young lady, but now…
“I understand how you feel.” Said Evan.
“… You don’t understand, you wouldn’t understand.” Sacha cried, heartbroken.
Evan opened the door and placed her on the bed. “Even though you were adopted, Eric Lowe should have treated you well. There’s no need to be so sad.”
“The person I care about the most has no blood relation to me. Do you know how I feel?” Sacha’s eyes were red.
Evan sighed and placed her on the bed. “Get some sleep and forget about this for now.”
In reality, blood relation wasn’t always the most important thing. As long as there was genuine care, that was enough.
“Don’t leave.” When Evan was about to leave, Sacha held onto him and pouted. “I’m scared all alone.”
“I can’t stay, I need to go back to Country Z. I don’t have time…”
Before Evan could finish his sentence, Sacha grabbed his collar and kissed him. Evan was stunned, completely taken aback by this sudden kiss. Her lips were soft and the kiss was inexperienced. She just kept nibbling on his lips.
“You, you’re drunk.” Evan pushed her away.
Sacha grabbed onto his collar. “I won’t let you go.” And then she pounced on him again. She didn’t care about anything else, she just knew that she needed someone to be with her right now.
Sacha had a good figure, fair skin. Holding onto Evan like this, her chest pressed against him. Evan’s thoughts started to wander.
“If you don’t stop, I might not be able to control myself, and you won’t…”
Sacha wrapped her legs around his waist.
Damn.
How could anyone resist this?
