Chapter 2

I was sent abroad by Orion on my 22nd birthday.

That day, Orion discovered my diary.

When I was young, my parents died in a cruise ship accident and never returned. Orion naturally took over my care.

My relationship with him had always been harmonious.

Until I became an adult, I realized I didn't just see Orion as an uncle.

I liked him.

But I also knew very clearly that there was no future between Orion and me.

So I wrote all my feelings in my diary.

If Orion hadn't seen my diary, I probably could have pretended that my feelings for him were just those of a niece for her uncle.

But Orion saw it.

He tore up my diary and asked me how I could have such disgusting thoughts.

"Don't you know I'm your uncle! Even without a blood relation, we can only be family!"

The usually gentlemanly and refined Orion was no longer gentle, shouting at me with disgust in his eyes.

At that time, I wanted to explain, but couldn't explain anything. In the end, I could only keep bowing and apologizing, saying I was wrong, that I shouldn't have fallen for him.

But Orion didn't calm down.

The next day, he resigned from the job I had lined up, and under the guise of studying abroad, sent me to a remote university overseas.

To prevent me from contacting the outside world, Orion even hired bodyguards to watch me.

At first, I didn't understand why Orion treated me this way.

Until the first month after I went abroad, news of Orion's marriage went viral.

Only then did I realize that all these years, he had always had someone in his heart.

I watched Orion's wedding video over and over again.

In the video, when looking at Melissa, Orion's gaze was gentle and loving.

He had never looked at me that way.

From that moment on, I knew that Orion keeping me by his side for so many years was just out of sympathy and responsibility.

His only love was Melissa.

"Miss John, please get in the car," the assistant's voice brought me back to reality.
