Chapter 6
“There’s only one person in my heart and that’s Carrie. I hope you understand that.“>
Sebastian’s words struck Sunny like a bolt of lightning. For a moment, she froze, her eyes were glistening with tears.
She and Sebastian had known each other since childhood. His parents were always busy with work, so he frequently ate at Sunny’s house to eat and this made them become close friends.
However, everything changed after a tragic incident. That day, Sunny’s mother was cooking in the kitchen while Sunny and Sebastian were playing with mud and sand in the yard. A serial killer on the run stumbled upon their home. He was fleeing from the police.}
At the sight of the strange, dangerous man, Sunny and Sebastian instinctively ran toward the house. However, they were too weak. Their strength was not enough to fight off the man who forced open the door with a single hand.”
Hearing the commotion in the living room, Sunny’s mother rushed out to find Sebastian shielding Sunny with his tiny frame. He was trying to protect her from harm.
However, the man had already pulled his knife and drove straight toward Sebastian’s chest.
Seeing this, Sunny’s mother screamed, ran over and took the knife that was meant for Sebastian. As a result, the sharp knife plunged deep into her body and her blood quickly pooled on the floor.
By the time the police and ambulance arrived, Sunny’s mother had died from excessive blood loss while Sunny was clinging to her mother’s body and sobbing.
Sebastian’s parents rushed over there and kept apologizing to Sunny. Sunny, who was not ten years old at the time, could not say anything except crying.§
Then Sebastian said to Sunny, “Don’t cry anymore. No matter what happens, I’ll protect you from now on and if you want anything, even the stars in the sky, I’ll get them for you.“>
As Sunny recalled about that moment, tears streamed down her face uncontrollably. However, before long, the cry turned into a triumphant smile.
Who cares? In the end, Carrie still lost to me! That’s right. Whether it’s her ex–husband or Sebastian, both of them had abandoned Carrie for me, Sunny. I’m the real winner!)
Seeing Sunny laughing, Sebastian’s anger flared. His raised hand hovered, ready to strike, when a noise from the door interrupted him.} Standing in the doorway was none other than Kevin, Carrie’s ex–husband. His face was a mask of fury. “Sunny? Sebastian?” he growled. *You two scumbags dare to cheat behind my back, huh?“}
Ever since Carrie severed ties with Kevin, the two of them hadn’t been in contact for a long while. So, imagine Kevin surprised when he suddenly received Carrie’s message.§
He was so curious and could not wait to click the thee chat box. Then he saw that she sent him a hotel location along with a message. [Room four hundred and three. There is a surprise from your wife.]}
The cryptic message puzzled him further.
What is going on? Why won’t Sunny tell him directly if she wants to surprise him? Why did she ask Carrie to relay it to him? Unless is something fishy going on here.”

…
Without thinking too much about it, Kevin drove straight to the hotel. He didn’t expect to see his wife and Sebastian rolling on the bed as soon as he arrived at the door of his room.!!
Known for his volatile temper, when he saw they acted this, he charged toward them with raised fists.
Kevin had known for a long time that Sunny had a childhood friend that she was so close to and he had been wary about Sebastian back them. He did not expect that in the end, the two of them would do the thing he worried about.
When he thought about this, regret crept into his heart. The more he compared the two women, the more he realized that Carrie was the better one.
Sunny, with her constant entanglements with other men, was bound to betray him eventually.!!
As Kevin and Sunny wrestled, Sebastian’s gaze fell on the phone lying on the bed. It was Sunny’s phone.
A thought struck him and he grabbed the phone and unlocked it. Sure enough, Sunny had sent a bunch of messages to Carrie
