“Sister?” Serenity’s voice trembled, but there was a crispness and delicateness to it that still made it pleasing to the ears.

From the first moment she laid eyes on the little girl, Selena had fallen for Serenity. Her petite figure and obedient temperament simply drew people to protect her.

Selena nodded. “Yes, I’m your sister and you’ll stay here from now on. If anyone bullies you, tell me. I’ll definitely teach them a lesson.”

After saying that, she glanced at a maid beside her with a serious warning in her eyes, scaring the maid into lowering her head in fear.

Selena did so because she had noticed the maid judging Serenity when the latter first stepped foot in the living room in her shabby dress.

“Sister, you’re fiercer than our teacher.” The little girl winked playfully.

Selena didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Later on, Helena Turner properly explained to Selena why her little sister had been sent to the countryside of Willow Town instead of staying with them in the luxurious Rivers residence.

From that moment on, Selena decided to take good care of her sister and never let her suffer any more grievances. Selena was ready to share half of everything with her, which meant the two often shared clothes.

At that time, their relationship was so good that they talked about everything.

One night, just as Selena was about to fall asleep, her bedroom door opened and a small head poked in. “Sis, are you asleep?”

Selena turned on the wall lamp next to her bed and saw Serenity standing at the door in cartoon pajamas. The older sister curiously asked, “Why aren’t you asleep yet?”

Serenity entered the room and crawled into her sister’s blanket. “I can’t sleep.”

Selena could see quite some excitement on Serenity’s face and narrowed her eyes. With a smile, Selena said, “I think you’re too excited to sleep.”

Serenity pouted guiltily since she had been exposed. “No way.”

The older sister looked at her younger sister while rubbing her chin. “Don’t tell me you have someone you like?”

Serenity’s little face turned red since her thoughts had been exposed yet again. And it only made her eyes look even more lively.

It was just a casual guess but Selena was proven right simply from Serenity’s reaction.

Her eyes widened as she said, “Serene, you’re only fifteen years old. This is puppy love.”

Serenity’s little face was flushed so red that she looked like she was about to bleed. She stammered as she said, “Sis, 1 don’t have anyone I like…”

Those might be the words leaving her mouth but the guilt in her eyes betrayed her. Selena was now very curious about what kind of boy could make the little girl fall for him.

“Who do you like? Is he your classmate?

Serenity covered her face with her hands and said in a mumble, “Sis, you’re talking nonsense. 1 don’t have anyone I like.”

Selena promised again and again that she would not tell anyone. No longer able to withstand her pestering, Serenity finally softly said, “He’s in the same school as you.”

“Who is it?” She was even more puzzled.

“John.” She uttered a name in a soft voice and her face turned as red as an apple after she finished speaking.

Even now, Selena still remembered the moment when Serenity said John’s name: her little sister’s face was red but her eyes shown exceptionally black and bright – Serenity had the look of the first awakening of love.

The sisters were silent for a moment before Selena chuckled. “Then 1 can rest assured.”

With that, she left the room and closed the door behind her.

After Selena and John left, the room fell silent. Serenity recalled the scene just now and kept changing the television channel in frustration..
