The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)

Chapter 1796

Sissaye always thought that she loved Zion very much. As long as Evangeline could do something for him, she also could do it.

But these things were all on the surface.

When the danger came, and life was placed in front of her, she didn't do anything, but Evangeline used everything she had to save the person she loved.

All of a sudden, Sissaye felt as if she was shameless to say "I like you" to Zion.

Compared to a woman like Evangeline, who would rather sacrifice herself to love Zion, how did Sissaye have the right to say "I like you"?

"Zion, didn't you come to see me today? Why do I feel like you're here to prick my heart?"

Sissaye was very depressed.

Seeing her like this, Zion smiled and said, "Heart-piercing is because there's still room for sadness in your heart. In fact, you don't like me completely as if a woman's affection toward a man. You are having the feelings of siblings and childhood friends. Maybe you do have feelings for me, but you're definitely not as affectionate as Evangeline. Sissaye, you've always been a sister in my heart. I won't accept you even without Evangeline."

"Zion, stop It."

Sissaye was even more depressed.

However, Zion acted as if he couldn't see her discomfort. He said in a low voice, "Benjamin is a good boy. He'll remember everything of you and do it quietly for you. Don't put full attention on me as I'm a man with a lover. I know you're proud and won't compete for husband with other women, so

put down your feelings for me and take a good look at Benjamin. You'll find that your love has always been with you."

"What husband? Aren't you have not married?"

Sissaye immediately retorted.

Although she admitted defeat in her heart and decided to give up when she knew that Evangeline would love Zion until sacrificed her life, it was still uncomfortable for her to hear Zion say so.

Zion smiled and said, "I've already made an application. I'll welcome you and Benjamin to my wedding later. You can't go abroad for training anymore. Why don't you attend my wedding first?"

"Zion, you're so mean!"

Sissaye had never felt that Zion was so annoying before. Perhaps she had been interested in him in the past, but now she wanted to hit him.

Seeing her like this, Zion knew that Sissaye had put him away.

Some people were just obsessions, not necessarily true feelings. Perhaps they were used together since childhood or subconsciously thought that I should like him. When everything was cleared of the fog, it was easy to unload the burden.

That was what Sissaye was like now.

However, she knew that she sincerely liked

Zion before.

"Didn't you buy me some fruits? Why don't you bring them over?"

Sissaye pouted. Her mischievous look made Zion feel much more relaxed.

"You wouldn't have treated me like this in the past."

"As you said, that was in the past. Now I have figured it out. Since you want to be my brother, I naturally have the right of a younger sister. Otherwise, won't I benefit you?"

Sissaye's words made Zion smile.

"Well, would you like me to wash an apple for you?"

"Okay. I want it to get peeled."

"Okay."

Zion didn't say anything else.

He quietly washed an apple for Sissaye, and then sat there with a fruit knife to peel the skin.

Watching Zion doing such a normal thing under the sunshine, Sissaye suddenly felt that it was a good thing.

Perhaps he could not be her lifelong lover, but he could be her brother for the rest of his life.

Love could make people look repulsive in appearance. She was glad that she could stop in time. Maybe she couldn't get rid of Zion in a short time, but it was good to have an elder brother for the rest of her life.

Sissaye's mood changed greatly in an instant.

She looked at the apple handed over by Zion and suddenly said with a smile, "Brother, do you think that Benjamin really likes me?"

Zion was slightly stunned.

Sissaye had turned "Zion" into "brother". The sudden change had made him lose his guard. He had thought that he had seen Rita, but Zion understood that Sissaye had decided to let go.

Zion was happy that he could restore his relationship with his childhood friend.

He chuckled and said, "Don't you have eyes? Are you blind to what Benjamin has done for

you?"

Sissaye felt a little depressed when she heard that.

"I used to be blind because of you. How can I see Benjamin's efforts?"

"You're not blind. Your heart is blind."

Zion's words made Sissaye depressed again.

She felt that the apple in her hand was no longer delicious.

"Brother, I'm a patient now!"

"I forgot if you didn't tell me you are a patient. How did I teach you since you were young? Well, you are easily hypnotized by outsiders. Sissaye, is your brain eaten by a dog? Where is your vigilance?"

When Zion thought that Sissaye had almost committed suicide, he was a little angry.

Sissaye was silent as well.

She had always thought she had good skills. Even in the military region, few people could defeat her. For this reason, she was complacent. But this time, the thing that happened to her was like

crisp applause and she was too ashamed.

"Brother, I was in poor spirits without good sleep at that time, so..."

"I won't listen to your excuses. Sissaye, I'm retiring now and I won't be able to protect you all the time. In the future, I'll become a husband and a father. I'll have more and more responsibilities on me. I don't have time to care about you. If you can't be strong, what should I do then? If it weren't for Evangeline and me coming to stop you, would you have asked me to attend your funeral? Have you ever thought about your parents?"

Zion knew that these words were too harsh for Sissaye, but he was lack of time. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

Although the procedure had not reached Carlson yet, his boss had already signed the documents and considered him retired.

In the future, whether it was Carlson or the military region, it was not up to Zion to enter here with his will. Moreover, he would focus on his family and work in the future. Everything here would be sealed in his memory and thoroughly be away from him.

Those young and golden years were gone, and Sissaye and he would also become people from two different worlds. The spirit was willing but the flesh was weak for him to protect her.

Although Sissaye had let go of her obsession with Zion, she didn't think that far. Upon hearing his words, Sissaye immediately panicked.

"Brother, what are you talking about? Even if you retired, you are still my brother. You can still come to my house to see me!"

But as soon as Sissaye finished speaking, she realized that she was wrong.

Zion's eyes were calm, but he told her cruelly that everything was different from before.

Sissaye suddenly choked with sobs. She hated Zion's ruthlessness and honesty, but she didn't know how to persuade him to stay.

Could she persuade Zion to stay?
