You Cheated Yet You Want My CommitmentChapter 1

My girlfriend and her so-called little brother got a hotel room together and got caught in a police raid on prostitution.

When I went to bail them out, she had red marks all over her neck.

She was busy comforting the “brother,” who was covering his face and crying.

“Luigi forgot his keys when he went out, so I booked a room for us. Listen, we just talked about work. Don’t get the wrong idea!”

In the past, I would have confronted her. But this time, I didn’t want to see that cold, piercing look in her eyes anymore.

I just calmly signed the paperwork without saying a word.

Someone from the case team asked me. “Family?”

I shook my head. “Just a neighbor.”

After that, I lowered my head and sent Mom a message.

[I agree to the arranged marriage with Miss Somerset. Give me three days. I’ll come home then.]

After leaving the police station, Eugene Bellinger, looking utterly dazed, got into the passenger seat.

I couldn’t be bothered to say much and was about to start the car when he grabbed my wrist—only to turn to Zelda and say, “Zee, I… I’m scared of riding in someone else’s car.”
