Chapter 1
“Bro, I replied that I would go home for a marriage alliance.”
Hailey Lewis’s soft voice was particularly clear in the quiet late night.
Austin Lewis on the other end of the phone finally felt relieved when he heard these words, “Did you finally break up with your little boyfriend? After being together for so many years, he never agreed to come back and meet me and our parents. I knew all along that you two wouldn’t work out.”
Upon hearing her brother’s confident tone, Hailey lowered her eyes and softly responded.
“I was wrong before, and I will handle things here as soon as possible. Please arrange the wedding matters for me, and give me half a month’s time.”
“You don’t need to worry about the wedding, we will take care of the preparations. You just need to come back on time. The partner for this marriage has been carefully chosen by me and my parents. Their family background, personality, and appearance are all excellent, and they will definitely meet your expectations.”
“By the way, when you come back this time to get married, remember to invite someone for me, my best friend Bryan Reid from before. You went to Northvale to study at university before, and you even stayed at his house for a while. You really owe him a lot for taking care of you back then. This time, remember to invite him to come to the wedding with us.”
Hailey didn’t know how to respond to this statement.
She remained silent for a long time before responding in a low voice.
“He couldn’t go.”
No sooner had the words been spoken, the door was pushed open.
Hailey quickly hung up the phone and looked up at Bryan Reid, who had just returned.
He raised an eyebrow, and on that face full of rebelliousness, a bold smile appeared.
“I couldn’t go? Couldn’t go where?”
My wedding.
Hailey told him the answer in her heart.
But her face remained calm, and her tone was also indifferent, “It’s nothing.”
Bryan didn’t care either, casually undoing the buttons of his black shirt, “Just now, were you talking to your brother?” Hailey nodded and got up to go back to the bedroom, but he grabbed her hand and pulled her into his arms.
The scorching breath fell on her ear, and the ambiguous atmosphere surged between the two.
Did you tell him what our relationship was?
Hailey smiled, but the smile didn’t reach her eyes, “You didn’t want him to know, right?”
“It’s not that he didn’t want to, but he couldn’t. Knowing your brother’s temperament, if he found out that his best friend and his beloved sister were together, he would probably fly to Northvale overnight and beat me up so badly that I couldn’t get out of bed.”
Listening to his joking tone, Hailey’s eyelashes trembled slightly, and her voice remained calm, “So, in your heart, am I your girlfriend?”
Upon hearing her sudden question, Bryan raised an eyebrow and said, “Not a girlfriend? I have been living with you for six years, haven’t I? Not a girlfriend? I hugged you as soon as I came back, didn’t I? Not a girlfriend? I do these things for you?”
Speaking, those warm lips brushed against her neck, and Hailey’s body instantly tensed up. She quickly turned her head to avoid the kiss and said, “I… I don’t feel well today.”

After her secret was exposed, Hailey stood up with a start and said, “NO, IN…”
The man chuckled casually, “Don’t like it? Then why does your face turn so red every time you see your brother?”
Bailey didn’t expect that he knew about every time she peeked at him. At à loss for what to do, the man smiled and held her chin, pressing a gentle kiss on her hips
She was trapped in this gentle and lingering kiss, unable to extricate herselt.
After a passionate night, Hailey’s once peaceful lite underwent a complete transformation
Bryan, like a wanderer, seemed to have settled down and tocused on dating her
She also repeatedly refused the requests from her father, mother, and brother to return home for an arranged marriage, insisting on staying in Northvale, by his side.
Every time her older brother would always ask her, “Who is in Northvale? Why haven’t you come back in those six years?”
She often wanted to expose Bryan’s relationship, telling everyone that she was dating her brother’s best friend.
But Bryan always stopped her, and she never knew why until a few days ago when Bryan got drunk at a gathering When she went to pack him up, a friend who was also drunk pointed at her and expressed regret.
“How could such a beautiful girl be harmed by that little scoundrel Bryan?”
“I said, little sister, you must never tall in love with Bryan. He is a heartless person. You, as well as his ex–girlfriend and even the one before her, are all just substitutes for Caroline.”

This was the first time Hailey heard the name Caroline Harris, and since then, she could never forget it.
After inquiring multiple times, she finally learned the truth.
Bryan and Caroline Harris were each other’s first love. In the year when he loved her the most, Caroline decisively broke up with him and went abroad.
He was immersed in the past and couldn’t get out of it, so he indulged himself and became a passerby among the flowers, constantly talking about his girlfriend.
And every girlfriend, to a greater or lesser extent, carried the shadow of Caroline.
This includes her as well.
After graduation, he refused to inherit the family business and insisted on becoming a race car driver, all because of a comment Caroline made when she was young, “Race car drivers are so handsome, my future husband must be a race car driver.”
Six years of youth and sincerity, turned out to be just a dream.
At that moment, Hailey made the decision to go back home and get married.
She didn’t want Bryan anymore, and she wouldn’t like him anymore.
