The Female Leads Truly Loves You Chapter 316 316: We are siblings, are you jealous?

The woman Ava never expected appeared next to her brother.

Not that she hadn't thought about it, but she was caught off guard at that mont.

Ava should have known.

Her no-good brother didn't even have a car, so what was he doing coming to pick her up? Walking back together? Impossible. That left only one possibility.

She should have realized it herself. This was all because emotions cloud judgnt—love really does make you dumb!

At that mont, Ava gritted her teeth as she glared through the car window at Angel's face, which she found utterly unlikable. There was no denying that Angel was attractive, but what did her beauty have to do with Ava?

Even if she sat next to her brother, looking so well-matched, one beautiful and the other incomparably handso, it didn't stop Ava from feeling disgusted.

"Why are you in her car?"

Ava asked her brother coldly.

Sam suddenly felt overwheld.

"We ca together to pick you up..."

"I don't need her to co along. Get out of the car, we'll walk back," Ava said coldly.

"This is..."

Sam struggled to explain his situation, how to express the complexity of his circumstances in front of his sister without losing face?

After all, getting entangled with Angel would undoubtedly put Ava at a disadvantage.

anwhile, Angel was smiling at Ava.

"About that, your brother and I have already reached an agreent. Since you've co to Kuhang, there's no reason for not to play the host. Don't you want to give your brother's girlfriend a little respect?"

"I haven't acknowledged you as my brother's girlfriend."

"Do you need to? Oh dear, do young people nowadays think too highly of themselves?"

"What did you say...!!"

Watching the two almost ready to fight through the car window, Sam couldn't just sit by, especially knowing his sister had a competition tomorrow that shouldn't be affected.

Sam imdiately looked at his sister.

"Get in the car, isn't it cold outside? Listen to your brother."

"Bro..."

"Co on, you promised , at least listen to here, or you'll have to stay at the hotel with your teammates."

"You...!"

Ava hadn't expected her brother to go this far for this woman, but it seed she couldn't refuse. She didn't want to stay with a bunch of chattering girls, and due to the swim team's budget issues, the hotel environnt wasn't great either...

She silently opened the car door and sat next to Sam. Finally, the car started moving again.

Angel turned her head with a smile to look at the young but already charming girl.

"What's the matter, Ava? It seems like you don't really want to see ."

"You know very well whether I want to see you or not," Ava huffed.

Sam had to admire the courage of the youth; at Ava's age, it was always possible to openly express negative emotions towards things they disliked.

"Really? I thought nobody would not want to see ," Angel countered.

"Heh, you really are clueless, aren't you? No self-awareness at all?"

Sam didn't know where his sister picked up such phrases.

What had she been studying when he wasn't around? One thing was for sure, it definitely wasn't her schoolwork.

Angel leaned back in the soft seat, stretching out her long legs and placing them on Sam's lap right in front of Ava.

Ava felt like this woman was declaring war on her.

What was this blatant behavior if not a provocation?

Ava wanted to do the sa, but... it seed her thoughts couldn't yet be revealed, especially not without Sam making up his mind.

"Oh? So you an not everyone likes ?" Angel asked, seemingly posing a question that even Sam found absurdly naive given the girl's confident nature.

Ava couldn't help but laugh.

"Of course, do you really think everyone likes you? Don't you realize that many people actually dislike your personality?"

Then Angel just shrugged it off with a carefree smile.

"It seems I don't really need to care about others' feelings, as long as your brother likes , that's enough."

"..."

Sam now understood what Angel ant, a true revelation of intentions.

Was she really setting such a trap?

Suddenly, Ava's smile vanished, and she looked out the window, determined not to glance at Angel again.

Angel didn't mind and continued to smile at Sam.

Sam felt helpless.

If these two didn't end up fighting, it would be a miracle. And even if they did fight, despite Ava's swimming skills and apparent athletic ability, she probably wouldn't co out on top.

Sam could never know the limits of this heiress, nor how many more powers she might possess.

As the car sped towards its destination, it wasn't heading to Sam's modest apartnt but to a wealthy neighborhood where every inch of land was worth a fortune.

Ava noticed sothing was off.

This route didn't look like it was leading to her brother's apartnt. Instead, the car stopped in front of a lavish, extravagant mansion, the kind she had only seen in movies, never experiencing in person.

"Where is this?" Ava asked, puzzled.

By then, Angel had already opened the car door, ready to get out.

"Co on, we're here," she said, stepping out, while Sam also got out and spoke to the young girl beside him.

"This is Angel's house. Be polite when we go inside; her mother might be there too."

"What?! Her house?!" Ava's eyes widened in shock, and Sam had already exited the vehicle, helping to open the door on her side.

"Get out."

"No, why are we at her house? You didn't tell beforehand!" Ava's eyes widened again. Although she was curious about the luxurious mansion, the thought of it being Angel's ho made it feel like a dangerous no-go zone.

Sam sighed helplessly.

"Would you have co if I had told you beforehand?"

"You knew I wouldn't want to co, and you still did this? I want to go back! Go to her house by yourself!"

She clung tightly to the car door, trying to resist.

"Stop making a scene. I told you to listen to here. Besides, my apartnt is too small; it's cramped for the two of us, and she has more rooms here..."

"What?! You want to stay at her house? Are you crazy, Sam?!"

As expected, Ava's resistance intensified.

Angel, who had already reached the doorway, obviously could not miss such commotion.

She stood at the entrance, smiling and turning back.

"Can you handle this? If not, maybe I should stay at your place?"

Clearly, this was a threat. If she went to stay at Sam's apartnt, it would definitely be worse than here.

Sam had no choice but to squat down.

He looked at Ava seriously.

"Just calm down and listen to ."

"You talk! I want to see what nonsense you can co up with!"

Ava was utterly reluctant. Just seeing Angel upset her, let alone the thought of staying at her house.

Even a six-star hotel would make her feel so uncomfortable that she couldn't sleep.

Sam spoke softly.

"I know this is tough for you, and I know you don't want to see her. But so things are out of my control, and it's not just for my sake, but for yours too."

"For ...?" Ava didn't quite understand what he ant, clearly unaware of the complex relationships among the won around Sam.

But Sam couldn't explain openly; he could only hint to Ava.

"That's right, so things aren't as simple as you think. Many decisions aren't mine to make alone. I just don't want you to be more affected than you have to be. Everything I do is to ensure you can go through this competition peacefully without any more surprises. Does that make sense to you now?"

Ava was no fool.

She was just easily swayed by her emotions, especially when it involved Sam.

Hearing Sam's earnest words, she realized the gravity of the situation.

She seed to understand Sam's hints.

"You an..."

Sam cut off her speculation.

"I won't hurt you, just rember that. Everything I do is to protect you. I can't bear to see you hurt or upset, no matter the circumstances."

When Sam looked straight into her eyes, Ava understood his sincerity.

He wouldn't deceive her.

Nor would he play along with that woman to mock her.

So, despite her reluctance, Ava let go of the car door.

"I understand..."

Sam stood up and gently took Ava's hand.

"Alright, if you don't like it, you don't have to talk, that's okay. But rember to be polite, okay?"

"I get it! I'm not a kid anymore... hmph."

With Sam taking her soft hand, Ava blushed a bit.

Angel squinted at the two of them.

"You two seem really close, just like real siblings."

Ava rolled her eyes at her.

"We are siblings, are you jealous?"

Angel couldn't help but laugh: "What's there to be jealous of? I'm your older sister too."

"Cut it out!" Ava thought Angel was referring to the ti she sent shoes, but she had no idea about the complex relationships Sam was entangled with in this household.

It wasn't until the three of them entered the front courtyard that a sexy and beautiful woman appeared before them.

She wore an unmatched friendly smile, yet there was an indescribable charm about her.

This was the most gorgeous mature woman Ava had ever seen.

How to put it? The qualities this woman possessed were what every girl aspired to have as they grew up.

Whether as a virtuous wife and mother or as an independent and strong woman, no one would mind having such an aura.

Just one glance seed to make you feel the warmth of spring, making you forget it was actually winter.

Could this be Angel's mother?

She looked like soone no one could dislike, soone everyone would want to get close to. Why then did she have such an annoying daughter?

Ava was puzzled.

But Celeste had already approached them, smiling.

"So this must be Sam's sister, right? Hello, I'm Angel's mother, Celeste. Nice to et you... I've already asked soone to prepare a gift for you. You're really beautiful, truly worthy of being Sam's sister. I would love to et your parents soti."

Ava found it strange.

She felt like she had heard this line sowhere before?

Indeed, Sam rembered Zoe when he heard this. The beautiful neighbor had also invited them for a al. Fortunately, Sam had foreseen this and hadn't agreed directly.

Ava suddenly felt nervous.

"Ah... there's no need for gifts, hello..."

Celeste warmly took Ava's hand.

"You've grown so tall at such a young age, have you ever thought about becoming a model? Your proportions are quite rare."

Ava, flattered by the barrage of complints, was sowhat disoriented.

"No, I haven't thought about that, I'm currently on the swim team at school..."

"Oh, that explains the great physique. I bet as you grow older, you'll be irresistible. There probably aren't many in the whole of Kuhang who could match your charm."

"Wha-what? No way..."

Ava's cheeks were burning hot.

Sam couldn't help but remark internally, 'Experience does count for sothing.'

Celeste had ample experience dealing with girls of all ages, managing to maintain her dignity while making the other person feel instantly good about the interaction.

It's all a trap, Ava!

Unfortunately, Sam couldn't give any hints. He could only watch as everyone entered the grand reception hall, where dedicated servants were ready to attend to them.

Ava still felt a bit nervous sitting next to Sam, her previous confidence seemingly vanished, but she noticed that the annoying Angel had suddenly stopped talking and appeared very well-behaved.

She sat there quietly, not making any subtle moves with her brother.

Could it be that even the worst girls behave themselves in front of their parents?

Noticing Ava's nervousness, Celeste said with a smile, "Don't be too nervous, treat this like your own ho. After all, Sam is part of our family, and so are you."

Ava was stunned. What? Family already? Weren't they just boyfriend and girlfriend? How could they accept this relationship so quickly?

Seeing Ava's shocked expression, Celeste looked at Sam. "Sam, haven't you told your sister that you're my godson?"

Sam replied with an awkward smile, "I haven't had the chance, I've been a bit busy and forgot..."

"Godson?!" Ava felt like her brain was about to explode.

What the hell? Boyfriend... and then he becos her mother's godson?

Are all adult relationships this ssy? What kind of complex ethical relationship is this?

Celeste smiled slightly. "Yes, because the mont I saw Sam, I felt he was a potential, gentle, and kind-hearted boy, so I decided to make him my godson... I hope that's not too much of a burden for Sam?"

Sam could only smile awkwardly. "Not at all, it's an honor."

Despite the weird feeling Ava couldn't quite articulate, she couldn't object.

It wasn't as if it was taking away Sam's family; from various perspectives, it was a blessing for Sam.

What could Ava express?

She could only deeply feel that Sam's relationship with this prominent family was getting deeper, and it seed not as simple as she had thought before, where a breakup could sever all ties...

What was she to do now?

But the real trouble was yet to co.

Angel turned her head with a smile and looked at Ava. "See, I told you I'm your older sister, do you believe now?"

"You!" Ava was infuriated but couldn't lash out in public.

Fortunately, Celeste noticed the tension between Ava and Angel, and she waved her hand.

"This is between us and Sam. Whether Ava wants to acknowledge you as her older sister is her own business. Don't make it too hard on her..."

How was Ava supposed to respond to that? Could a poor response offend soone?

Ava had these concerns, but luckily, Sam intervened at this mont.

"Ava is still young. Let's leave these matters for later, Godmother."

"That's true, Sam really knows how to take care of his sister."

"Of course, she is my sister... But Godmother, what about soone who doesn't honor a bet and still doesn't call 'older brother'? What should we do?"

Ava looked up, puzzled. What was this all about?

Then she saw the strange expression on Angel's face.

Her cheeks slightly flushed, eyes narrowed, far from her usual composure.

"Sam... are you asking for trouble?"

Oh? What's this now?!

Ava suddenly beca excited.

This was one of the rare monts she could see this troubleso woman put in her place.

Celeste blinked.

"Really? We have such an issue? That shouldn't happen in our family, as we highly value the spirit of contracts..."

Angel gritted her teeth as she glared at Sam, who was acting innocent in front of their mother.

"Sam, are you full and just looking for trouble?"

Sam looked innocently at Angel.

"What's wrong? I'm just reasonably raising my doubts. If you say the bet doesn't count, then it doesn't count, can't I even ntion it?"

Celeste looked at Angel.

"You were the one who wanted to bet in the first place, weren't you? And now you want to go back on your word? That doesn't sound like you."

Angel took a deep breath and then turned to Sam.

"Fine... then co to my room later, and I'll say it to you in person."

"...Can't we do it here?"

"What do you think?"

"Then... shall we just forget the bet?"

"Heh, you think it's up to you to decide that?"

"..."

Ava was still confused, but she found Angel's annoyed expression quite satisfying.

anwhile, Sam, seeing his sister's barely suppressed laughter, could only internally lant.

Do you know how much your brother has sacrificed for you?

To keep you from feeling slighted, he'd rather draw all the hatred onto himself...
