I'm Your Sister, Brother Chow

It was those random bouts of gentleness towards her that made Celine confident about how much she really meant to Chow.

But now that she thought about it, every time Chow was gentle to her, it was always in front of Vivian.

She hadn't noticed it before. But now, she suddenly realised that Chow's tenderness towards her might have just been deliberately put on as a show for that b*tch Vivian to see.

How did it all come to this?

Could it be that the hatred he said he had towards her was not real after all?

Or was it that he hadn't even realised himself that he was giving Vivian special treatment?

Celine's face was full of shock as realisation dawned on her. Her eyes kept flitting between the two tightly shut doors.

However it was, she was never going to let this b*tch get the better of her. She wasn't going to lose to Vivian.

Chow was hers, and hers alone!

Vivian finally heard the sound of Celine's footsteps going down the stairs. Nonetheless, she still buried herself deeply under the covers, not even daring to lift her head up.

Another sound came from the wardrobe door. She knew that it was Chow coming back from his room.

Vivian shivered and grabbed the blankets even tighter.

Chow walked to the bed and sat down. When he saw her curling herself up into a ball, he frowned softly. "What are you doing?"

Vivian didn't answer.

"Are you trying to suffocate yourself?" Chow asked again.

Vivian was stunned and did not speak, but she just pulled more of the blankets over her head.

Chow finally realised that there must be something wrong with Vivian for her to act this way. His expression calmed down as he reached out to pull the blankets away, forcing her to look at him.

It was only then that he saw the tear streaks on Vivian's face.

Chow's heart tightened when he saw her crying. He let out a soft curse. "Why are you crying?"

Vivian shook her head, sobbing quietly, and grabbed the blankets back.

Of course, Chow knew why she was crying. How could he not?

He lowered his head and pressed a few quick pecks on Vivian's wet lips. "Don't worry, Celine's existence won't affect our relationship. You don't need to overthink. Just stay with me."

Hearing him mentioning Celine's name, Vivian couldn't help trembling again. "I... I think that I'm a sinner," she whispered. "Whether I admit it or not, I know that I've already affected your relationship with Sister Celine."
