It was the second year of my secret relationship with Adrian Holt, my brother's best friend, when his adopted sister came back. I decided to break up with him and quietly went along with the marriage my family arranged for me. The engagement party was super private; only the closest family and friends were invited. During the ceremony, my brother's phone rang. He picked up, grinning as he teased, "Seriously, Victor, you didn't even bother to show up for Adrian's engagement? For Celine, you're like her big brother." On the other end, Victor Lewis's voice faltered. "Who's getting engaged?" he asked.
