Bailey was somewhat surprised.

“You are rather optimistic and willing to let go,” he said with a meaningful look.

Simone also replied with heartfelt words, “Many times, one has to give up in order to gain. I am fortunate to have gained, and it is my fate to lose. There is no need to force it. I am satisfied with what I have gained from the night market today. That is enough for me.”

Indeed, trying to grasp too much may result in losing even more.

I have always believed that things will turn into opposites when they reach their extremes.

No matter what we do, we cannot be too greedy. Just be satisfied to have met our own expectations.

Bailey looked at Simone, his eyes deep as if he was seeing something through her.

“I am fortunate to have gained, and it is my fate to lose. There is no need to force it,” he repeated before chuckling. “It makes sense. But unfortunately, many can’t see it that way.”

Looking at Simone with a rare appreciative gaze, he added, “You are pretty good, but it’s a pity.”

Upon hearing that, Simone raised an eyebrow and asked, “A pity? About what?” Bailey smiled. lightly. “You have to fight for your life.”

Simone laughed. “Otherwise, do nothing and wait for death?” Bailey raised the corner of his lips and said, “I hope you can do it.”

“Of course, I ought to strive for it, Simone said, her facial expression slightly serious,

had almost finished their shopping. Hence

they left together.

Simone also noticed that whether it was the managers or the elderly stall owners in the night market, they all treated Bailey respectfully.

Coupled with his paintings hanging on the walls of the night market, it further indicated that he must have a deep connection with this place.

Who exactly is he?

On the way back to the night market, Andrew felt a bit thirsty. He asked the others to go.

ahead first. Then, he took Aaron to a grocery store to buy drinks.

Just as he was about to pay,

he noticed two girls talking and pointing at him.

Although their voices weren’t loud, he could hear them clearly as it was relatively quiet now.

Then, his facial expression changed.

Not only were these two girls insulting him, but they were also saying that he and Jodie turned out to have an ambiguous relationship, which was why he treated her with such love and tolerance that he would bully and pick on Simone so much for her sake.

It served him right to get scourged by Jodie.

They even said he was nothing but one of Jodie’s pawns.

Now that she had finished toying with him, she was about to discard him like a worthless object. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

He and his brothers were just toy boys that Jodie could abandon at any time after using them.

In the end, a lapdog like him would end up

with nothing.

After hearing these words, Andrew was furious.

He couldn’t help but shout at the two of them, “What nonsense are you talking about?! Jo and I aren’t in the relationship at all, as you said! Slandering is against the law. Believe it or not. I will sue you.”

The two, who were discussing, were startled by his shout.

Then, one of them glared at him. “You should’ve known if we were slandering or not, right? The video of you two lying in the same bed has gone viral on the internet and is currently the most trending topic. Yet, you still have the nerve to claim you’re innocent. I’ve seen shameless people before, but I’ve never seen anyone as shameless as you and Jodie. Andrew, go ahead and sue us if you want to. We’re not afraid of you.”

These words made Andrew’s expression change again.

Suddenly, he had a bad feeling. “What video are you talking about?”

At once, the girl logged onto her social media on her phone and showed him the list of trending topics to prove they weren’t making it up.

“Look. Here’s your trending headline.”

As she spoke, she clicked on the video and let Andrew watch it.

“If it weren’t for this trending video, no one would have known how disgusting you two are.

But then again, you guys are a perfect match. Just stay together forever so that you can stop causing trouble for others.”

Meanwhile, Andrew was about to explode in anger when he saw the video of him and Jodie lying on the same hospital bed playing on the phone.

“Who posted this?” he asked.

“The account, lamtoppaparazzi, posted it. They have solid evidence of your scandal. So, don’t treat the viewers like fools,” the girl said.

Andrew was bereft of speech. Fools! I’m the one feeling like I’m the real fool now.

Casting them a gloomy look, he said, “I can’t be bothered to argue with you.”

The girl twitched her mouth. “You’re feeling guilty. Of course, you can’t argue anymore. Hurry back to the inn and take care of your Jojo. She’s lying in bed and waiting for you to take care of her after

fainting from the sight of blood.”

Andrew couldn’t help but stress. “I’ll say it one last time. Believe it or not, Jo and I don’t have the disgusting relationship you think we have.”

Upon hearing that, both girls shook their heads without hesitation. “Of course, we don’t believe you.”

Andrew was speechless as their statement was like a sudden blow to his head.

“You are simply being unreasonable.”

Seeing that there was no point in explaining to them at all, he grabbed Aaron’s arm and stormed out of the grocery store.

After they left, he asked with a solemn look, “Tell me-were you the one who had released the videos online? Aaron, just how much do you hate me that you want to do this to me? What benefit do you get from releasing these videos? You are my younger brother. Don’t you feel ashamed when others misunderstand and condemn me?”

In an instant, Aaron’s face also turned serious. “Are you crazy? What does this have to do with me? I have been recording variety shows all day today, and my phone has been confiscated. So, how can I release videos? You do know that you should feel ashamed, huh!” He rolled his eyes and continued, “If you knew, what were you doing before? How could you let this happen?” D*mn it! I’m so mad right now! It’s clearly not me who did it. I can’t believe Andrew would wrongly accuse me like this!

Now, I regret reminding Andrew earlier of kindness. This ungrateful sem doesn’t even appreciate it.

Andrew looked at Aaron Gray’s angry face, which appeared like he was telling the truth.

Thus he figured he might have misunderstood.

Feeling embarrassed, he said. “If it wasn’t you who leaked it, then it must be Luca, that b”stard”

Then, with his face full of anger, he continued, “Is he crazy? How could he release such videos?”

Back at home. Luca and I are the closest

Yet. I never thought that b*stard would stab me in the back like this.

Aaron thought for a moment.

“I don’t think Luca would do it. According to Luca’s personality, he shouldn’t have released such

However, Andrew sneered, “Why wouldn’t he? Besides Mom, you two were the only ones who recorded videos that day. If it wasn’t you or Luca, are you implying that it’s Mom?” Since Salma had the most sense of pride among the Gray Family, Andrew was certain that she would never release the videos.

“Luca is now on my list.”

He clenched his teeth and declared, “I will definitely make him pay when we return.”

Because I felt discomfort in my back from sleeping while sitting up in the hospital, Jo advised me to lie on the bed and rest together.

I agreed.

Little did I know that Mom would get the wrong idea and beat the hell out of me.

But now. I learn that the video has spread all over the internet.

How can I meet with the people in Cebros teithout feeling shame once I return? I would’ve accepted my fate if Jo and I truly had an illicit relationship.

But there’s indeed nothing going on between us! I only have feelings of love and care for Jo, like a protective older brother, and never have any inappropriate thoughts.

By releasing such videos, Luca is purely attempting to tarnish our innocence,

We had faced criticism before. Is Luca trying to make the situation even worse now? The more Andrew thought about it, the angrier he became.

He wished so badly that he could go back now and give Luca a thorough beating.

As for Luca, who was currently in his room, he sneezed repeatedly.

He couldn’t help but wonder if there were some b*stards out there cursing at him.
