What did he mean by that? | looked at him blankly. | was still young, | didn’t mean my age. | meant that | was protected too well by my parents and Colin, so my mental age was young. | hadn't learned to think independently about many things.
After listening to Colin's words, | pondered. Based on his strong physique and my knowledge of gender, | could be sure he was male. Why did he ask such nonsense? “Matthew’s family is very unusual. His education and growing environment since childhood are beyond your imagination. Lulu, I've never cared about the difference in family background.
“But if you marry into the Loxley family, you'll suffer. Society has classes. If you marry into a family with a higher social class, your future life won't be good.” | had thought before about what Colin just said.

But the Loxley family was prestigious in Jinovy, and they were becoming increasingly powerful in recent years.
Matthew was the eldest son in the family and was responsible for inheriting the family business. To stabilize his status, his parents would probably find him a well-matched lady to marry him.

Colin was right. The class gap between us was too big. It was also why | hadn't decided to be with Matthew.
| didn’t want to beca joke in their circle. | didn’t wish to make myself too humble.
“By the way, Colin, do you think I'm ugly or stupid?” “You're the most coquettish in Lincoln University.” Coquettish? It was such an unpleasant word although he was probably complimenting me.
“Then why have no boys ever pursued me? When I think of this, | feel bad about myself.” Colin looked enigmatic and didn’t answer me, only pursing his lips.
I didn’t remember when he left. When | woke up, | found nobody was in the except for the refreshing smell of pine lingering faintly in the air.
It wasn’t until | bathed at night and lay on the bed chatting with Zara that | finally figured out what Colin's words meant.
Over the years, | had only held his hand. But | treated him as my brother. He was different from a boyfriend.
wondered whether he askedthat intentionally or if he was flirting with 1. me.

How could that be? | must be overthinking it.
Even if Colin flirted with everyone, he wouldn't flirt with me. He had always treatedas his most beloved sister.
Zara didn’t cback. She said she was traveling with her classmates. But when | looked at the photos she sent, there seemed to be only one classmate, and it was a man.
She had just finished showering and was wiping her hair while video- chatting with me.
Through the dressing mirror beside her, | saw a well-dressed man sitting on the couch with a laptop on his lap.
He was frowning while reading something. The distance was a bit far. | couldn't see his appearance, but he seemed not as tall as Colin.
Zara would glance at the mirror from tto tand couldn't help but smile. There was a sense of tenderness flowing in her eyes.
Alas, even a determined woman like her had fallen in love with a bastard.
Was | destined to be single forever? The next morning, | was woken up by the sound of my phone ringing. I realized that the high school chat group had become lively.
