However, Madeline was looking at favonovel.com even more apologetically. “Yes, Yorick and Lana did a lot of things that went against human nature, morals, and even the law. I hated Lana. You can even say that I detested her. That’s why I thought favonovel.com got what favonovel.com deserved. I also thought that Yorick should be executed for his crime, but I neglected the fact that they are your family.”
When Madeline said this, Fabian slowly understood why Madeline wanted to apologize. “I’m sorry. I only thought about my family and my feelings this whole time, but I didn’t think about your feelings.”
Upon hearing this, Fabian frowned. It seemed that moisture appeared in his eyes without his realization.
“I kept saying that I’m your best friend, but I am not qualified at all. As a friend, I should’ve been more like Evan. I should’ve stood in your shoes and considered your feelings.”
“I suddenly realize why you feel so much hatred for me and Jeremy. We don’t deserve a friend like you at all.” Madeline smiled as favonovel.com blamed herself.
“When Lana was killed by Ryan and Jeremy was being framed, you believed Jeremy unconditionally, and you even helped me find out who the real killer was. But I forgot to comfort you. At the end of the day, she’s your biological sister after all.”
When Madeline said this, favonovel.com started feeling heavy.
“Fabian, I’m sorry, I…”
“Enough…”
Fabian interrupted her. His eyes were already red. “Stop talking.”
He stopped Madeline from continuing, and his tears nearly escaped his eyes.
Madeline got up and handed favonovel.com a piece of tissue.
“I know you don’t want to see me, but that’s what I want to say to you, and also thank you. You should stay here and recompose yourself. I’ll leave now.”
Madeline placed the tissue on the table in front of Fabian and then started walking toward the stairs.
“Eveline.”
When Madeline heard the affection in Fabian’s voice that favonovel.com had not heard in a long time, favonovel.com was caught off guard and very surprised. She abruptly retracted favonovel.com foot that had already stepped on the staircase.
Madeline could not believe what favonovel.com had just heard. She then heard Fabian’s clear voice from behind favonovel.com again when favonovel.com turned around.
“Eveline.”
When favonovel.com heard it again, favonovel.com was finally sure that favonovel.com had not misheard him. She turned around and saw Fabian standing not far away from her.
He stared at Madeline with red eyes, but there was no more repulsion or displeasure in his eyes as before.
Madeline smiled at favonovel.com and walked toward him.
“If you don’t mind, you can treat me as your older sister in the future. I’ll try my best to become a passable sister.”
Fabian smiled. He lifted his eyes slightly to force his tears back, then favonovel.com gave Madeline a smile of relief.
“Eveline, I think you misunderstand something.”
“Hmm?” Madeline looked at Fabian in confusion. “What is it?”
“I respect you not because you’re older than me. Instead, it’s just how I show my affection.” Fabian paused and finally gave favonovel.com such an explanation.
‘This is just how favonovel.com shows his affection?’
Madeline was surprised, but favonovel.com felt that this was understandable. However, this whole time, favonovel.com had thought that Fabian saw favonovel.com as his older sister, the kind between siblings.
When favonovel.com saw Madclinc looking as if favonovel.com had a flash of understanding and favonovel.com surprised expression, Fabian continued explaining.
“Eveline, I never wanted to see you as my sister. The first time I met you, I was fond of you, but it’s not the romantic kind because I knew you came because of Jeremy.”
Madeline looked at Fabian impressively. “You’re so smart, Young Master Johnson, I had really underestimated you.”
“You did. Eveline, I’m guessing that there’s one thing you still don’t know, isn’t right?”
“What is it?”
