Chapter 19
Thinking back, my heart ached painfully.
Suddenly, my vision was blocked by a splash of pink. Kevin skillfully
wrapped a pink and white scarf around my neck.

His dark eyes held a flicker of unexpected gentleness, contrasting with his
rebellious appearance.
“You just had a cold yesterday; don’t catch another one.” His voice was low
and lazy as he adjusted the scarf carefully, his breathtaking face close enough
that I could feel his warm breath against my ear.
The warmth on my neck melted the ice in my heart.
He straightened, his gaze on Seth. A devilish smirk curved his lips. His tone
was icy.“Don’t talk to trash; it’ll pollute your ears.”
Seth’s anger flared at those words, taking a step forward, hostility in his eyes.
Sarah quickly held Seth’s arm.“Seth, don’t be impulsive. Talk to Bella

Hearing that made my stomach churn. Sarah’s fake concern disgusted me!
My smile vanished instantly as I turned to Kevin.“Let’s go.”

the car.
At that moment, Yale walked out of the house, noticing Sarah’s red
eyes.“Your fourth brother has a short temper, not directed at you. I’ll talk to him
later, and also find a chance to talk to Bella. Go to school, don’t be late.”
Sarah nodded, a sweet smile breaking through.“Thank you, Yale.”
She turned towards Seth’s car, her face beaming, but inside, she felt a chill.

She was determined to push me away; the Miller family’s heiress could only
