She casually told Spencer, and now he actually helped her inÂ
advance.Â
If these things hadn’t happened, Adelaide would have been moved to tears, shouting that he was her best brother.Â
But everything changed.Â
She looked up at him with a blank expression and said, “Spencer, I won’t be moved.”Â
Spencer’s face fell suddenly, “Isn’t this the mansion you’veÂ
always dreamed of?”Â
“At 18, my dream was like a bubble that burst with just oneÂ
poke for 25–year–old me.”Â
“How could it be bubbles, didn’t I already help you achieve it!” Spencer grabbed her arms, “Everything you’ve ever fantasized about, I can make it happen for you. Since you don’t want to goÂ
abroad, this is our home, just for the two of us.”Â
His words just made Adelaide feel scared, she forcefully pushedÂ
away his hands and took two steps back.Â
He was like a prickly hedgehog, full of hostility and alertnessÂ

towards him.Â
“Adele, don’t be afraid of me.” It was a pleading tone, butÂ
Adelaide could still see his desire to possess her without anyÂ
disguise.Â
Adelaide stared at him with disgust in her eyes until he had noÂ
choice but to back off. Her palms were sweaty, afraid that heÂ
might do something impulsive.Â
She could only speak as calmly as possible, “Aren’t you afraid of making Mom and Dad really angry if they find out?”Â
“Don’t worry, I’ll take care of it.”Â
“Dad has already been looking for a wife for you, Spencer, wakeÂ
up, I’m your sister!”Â
“Amanda is my real sister, not you!” Spencer suddenly looked up, his crimson eyes flashing with fierceness and paranoia. “We have no blood relation, Adele. I don’t want you to just be my sister, I want you to be my wife, and grow old together withÂ
me.”Â
“You are crazy!” Adelaide’s heart was pounding uncontrollably,Â
her mind racing.Â
If Spencer dared to really do something to her, couldn’t kill him, then she could only kill herself.Â

She didn’t believe that the lunatic could still hold her body andÂ
talk about some bullshit growing old together!Â
“Yes, I was crazy!”Â
“Every time I see Garrett holding you and hugging you, thinkingÂ
that he can live in the apartment I bought for you, hearing himÂ
call you his wife, I just want to kill him! Kill him!”Â
“It was so hard, so hard for him to finally disappear from yourÂ
world. I thought I finally had a chance, why would anotherÂ
Reginald appear by your side… Adele, if you need a man, I can be your man, why do you still have to look for someone else?”Â
Adelaide took a breath, her back against the cold ice wall, not asÂ
cold as the chill running through her body right now.Â
“Adele,” Spencer’s voice was hoarse and cold, slowlyÂ
approaching, wrapping her in his arms. “Don’t reject me, be withÂ
- me. Trust me, there won’t be another person in this world whoÂ
understands you like I do.”Â
“You let go of me! Let go!” Adelaide’s face was pale, strugglingÂ
desperately.Â
“Adele, don’t reject me, please,” Spencer pleaded, holding herÂ
tightly with both hands.Â
Adelaide was confused and just wanted to break free from hisÂ
restraint. Without thinking, she buried her head and bit downÂ
hard on his shoulder.Â
Even with a suit jacket on, she still gave it her all.Â
He was pounding his back like crazy.Â
Spencer didn’t want to let go, but when he heard her sobbing, heÂ
softened and ended up giving her a hug. “Adele…”Â
Adelaide was shaking all over, with fear, anger, and disgust inÂ
her eyes.Â
