I walked up to the refrigerator, t
Colton collapsed on the ground.
The alcohol had gone to my head, and memories of the past five years kept coming back to me
When I first met Diya, she was at the police station reporting her parents missing, crying uncontrollably.
He knew that she was his younger brother’s fiancée.
It was also known that Keely was the only suspect.
It was also the favorite in his brother’s heart,
It was also the emotions he could not speak of.
He chose to propose to Diya in public at the funeral of the two elders of the Woodward family.
At that time, Diya had just learned about her brother’s marriage to Keely.
The slender body looked so helpless in the cold wind.
He had also been soft–hearted before.
Thinking about whether my actions have hurt an innocent person.
When Keely came to find him in the rain, that pitiful sense of compassion was completely shattered.
He chose deception, he chose to help the tyrant.
Chose to go against his own principles.
He secretly took away the file of the Woodward family murder case.

“Colton, I don’t know what’s been happening to me lately. I can’t seem to wake up. Can you take a day off and accompany me to the hospital to get checked out?”
“I made
your favorite sweet and sour spare ribs for you, reheated three times already. When are you coming home?
Word by word, sentence by sentence, his last bit of sanity completely collapsed.
Diya believed in him like that, and entrusted the Woodward family case to him for investigation.
But he chose betrayal, he chose lies,
He trembled as he pressed the keyboard, making countless typos after getting drunk.
The message of apology was successfully sent.
but only received a red exclamation mark.
Colton chuckled self–deprecatingly.
I didn’t expect Diya to leave, not even willing to give him a chance to apologize and make amends. „
