Doted by Many: I became the Top-Tier Celebrity!-Chapter 292 - 291: What Is Love?

After that, Cain Rhodes pretended nothing had happened and came to pick her up, taking her back home, though she was already unconscious.

That week, Cain Rhodes treated her exceptionally well, caring for her as if he wanted to present her with the best things in the world.

She asked him, why was he so good to her?

He said, because she was his fiancée, the only woman he ever wanted to marry in this life.

Afterwards, Lily Sloane couldn’t bear to see him again, so she wrote him a letter, warning him to be wary of Arthur Donovan and the other two people, urging him to leave this filthy circle, find a good girl, and forget her.

Eventually, she took one last leap, and from then on, the entertainment industry knew Lily Sloane no more.

Until the moment she died, Lily Sloane never knew that Cain Rhodes was merely a hypocrite cloaked in righteousness.

She gave him her most precious youth, yet he was heartless and malicious, costing her life.

Having recounted all of this, May Sloane’s eyes seemed ready to shed tears of blood, and she cried out brokenly, "Why..."

Tiana Thorne held her in her arms, her heart cold as if they were warming each other.

She suddenly understood a human saying.

A dog will always be a dog, but sometimes, a human isn’t always humane.

May Sloane cried ferociously, "Why, why did he treat my sister like this... Why?"

Tiana Thorne laughed bitterly, "Because in this world, there are people who lock away all their worst traits, keeping only their strongest side. When they become more powerful, they look back on the past, and at that moment, they only loathe those who have seen that weaker side of them."

"So, Cain Rhodes is such a person, and my sister witnessed his most dismal side... Is this how he repaid her?"

"Moreover, he is a man with ambition. Your sister not only saw it but tried to stop him..."

May Sloane cried even harder.

No wonder, seven years ago, a month before my sister committed suicide, she was still joyfully telling me that she was about to have a brother-in-law.

I asked who the brother-in-law was.

My sister said he was the best man in the world.

I felt happy for my sister, but the joy didn’t last long; she committed suicide...

I didn’t even have the chance to find out who my brother-in-law was, and this so-called brother-in-law never appeared after my sister died.

She unexpectedly relied on what my sister once said, that Cain Rhodes was a good man, serious about his work, clear in his loves and hates, gentle in demeanor, and would definitely shine in the entertainment world someday.

She also, because of my sister’s words, kept an eye on Cain Rhodes, and she indeed found that he was a very good man.

Besides, every year on my sister’s memorial day, he would post articles in remembrance and even secretly leave flowers at the grave.

She never imagined that it was this seemingly perfect man who caused her sister’s death.

Tiana Thorne felt her shoulder wetted by May’s tears, yet she didn’t comfort her.

An hour later, May Sloane cried herself tired, wiped away her tears, and her eyes turned into rabbit eyes.

Tiana Thorne then calmly asked, "Do you want revenge?"

"I do." May Sloane was still sobbing, her voice already hoarse.

Tiana Thorne looked out the window at the white clouds and blue sky, her fox-like eyes coldly narrowed, revealing a murderous intent within.

"Then take back everything Lily Sloane ever gave him!"

Cain Rhodes.

Arthur Donovan.

Not one stays!

May Sloane sensed the murderous aura emanating from her, feeling somewhat puzzled.

That was her sister, why did Tiana’s hatred feel no different from hers?

"Beautiful one."

"Hmm?"

Tiana Thorne slowly spoke, her eyes unfocused and blurred, "Do you know what is the hardest thing to attain in this world?"

"Never to meet him again in this life."

Never to meet him again...

Amidst the vast sea of people, through so many lives, lucky to accompany for seven years, why attain but not cherish?

And her benefactor, even after searching for so many years, never to meet again.

Cain Rhodes, he must die!

May Sloane slowly grasped the meaning within, looking at her in disbelief, "You mean, he loved my sister?"

He would suffer from her departure, never to see her again?

Tiana Thorne slightly squinted her eyes, she understood it all.

She saw the tear drop at the door.

Even though she didn’t know what love was.

But she knew what Cain Rhodes didn’t.

Lily Sloane surely had a special existence for him.

Only this existence, inadvertently, with power and fame as gravestones, was buried deep in his heart.

What she wanted was to unearth the grave, let those deadly existences see daylight again, and unable to let Cain Rhodes find peace.

Tiana Thorne’s breathing became heavier once again, she looked at her, "Your sister was once my lifesaver." 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

May Sloane was shocked.

"Thirteen years ago, I was seven, I had a car accident outside the fourth ring, the perpetrator fled, everyone thought I was dying, feared trouble, avoided me, only Lily Sloane reached out to help, took me to the hospital, contacted my family, I wished she could accompany me more, she said she had to go to the company for business, to take a new person..."

As she spoke, Tiana Thorne’s eyes reddened, "Thinking back, I regret not holding her back, it was on that day, she stepped onto a lifelong path of no return, I calculated Cain Rhodes’ destiny, if on that day, Lily Sloane missed him, she would miss him for a lifetime, Cain Rhodes would not hold on, eventually withdraw from the entertainment circle."

May Sloane widened her eyes, tears streaming incessantly, her lips trembling, "How can it be your fault, you already pulled her back once, this is fate’s arrangement, cannot escape it, pity my sister not knowing how beastly this person was till death..."

"When a person dies, they return to reflect on their life, seeing things unseen in life, after your sister’s death, she saw his true colors, so she led you to meet me unbeknownst, knowing her grievances, avenging her."

May Sloane held her breath tight, that sentence seemed to be a straight soul-comfort to her.

Thus, in life one must not commit evil, answered by the saying, no report doesn’t mean time hasn’t come.

She wiped her tears, one word at a time, "Tiana, Cain Rhodes doesn’t deserve to be liked by so many people."

Tiana Thorne nodded.

He doesn’t deserve Lily Sloane’s love either.

Lily Sloane saved her, without her saving the original owner that one time, she wouldn’t have lived until being struck by lightning and reborn.

Equivalently, Lily Sloane saved two people simultaneously.

Moreover, she and Lily Sloane have a common enemy, whom she will meet tomorrow night, Arthur Donovan.

Thoughts returning, Tiana Thorne then gently said to her, "Wipe your tears, listen to me for everything, okay?"

"Okay, I’ll listen to you." As long as she can avenge her sister.

"From the current situation, he should not know you are Lily Sloane’s sister."

May Sloane bit her lip, asking, "Tiana, what do you plan to do?"

Tiana Thorne pondered, and suddenly, the phone rang.

Tiana Thorne took the phone out of her bag, seeing the caller ID.

It’s her brother.

At that instant, she thought of her brother’s kindness to her, seemingly granting redemption to her heavy and unpleasant mood.

Her brother, to her, was indeed a healer.

She revealed a faint smile and answered the call, "Brother~"
