Chapter 1467: Chapter 1439 It’s Not That Simple
Mario Yuno told Kiara about Arlong’s situation, and Kiara felt a bit more at ease. The next day, Mario Yuno indeed gave Arlong a day off to come home and see Kiara.
Arlong still had the same deathly look as the day before. Kiara pretended not to notice and asked with a smile,
"I’m also free this weekend, why not call your girlfriend and invite her over?"
"Sis?!" Arlong was surprised, "Didn’t you dislike her?"
"I do dislike her, but since you love her, I respect your decision. You’ve been dating for a while now, so why not bring her over for a couple days? It would be a good opportunity for us to get to know her better."
"This..." Arlong hesitated, "Sis, she might not be able to come over. Actually... I’m planning on breaking up."
"Oh?! What happened? I’m not the villain who breaks up couples, why would you break up if things are going well?"
"It’s not about you... it’s our own issue."
Arlong didn’t know where to start explaining to his sister and could only worryingly run his fingers through his hair.
At this moment, only he and Kiara were at home. Young Aunt took Wendy and Beautiful Lady outside for a stroll.
"Is it that you both are gradually having less in common, the intervals between calls are getting longer and longer, and even when you do get through, you don’t know what to say? Then she becomes more and more indifferent towards you, and in the end, she hardly contacts you anymore?"
Arlong looked up, surprised. His bewildered expression seemed to ask Kiara, how did you know?
"Your sister has handled so many relationship consultations that they could line up around the city twice. Your personalities and backgrounds are destined to drift apart. What decides love is the dopamine generated from an instant attraction, but this kind of dopamine usually disappears after two weeks. Afterwards, what supports the happiness of the couple is their shared values. It’s problematic not just when values differ greatly, but even small differences can cause trouble when you’re living apart and can’t see each other that often."
"I know that being apart isn’t good, so whenever I have time, I call her, wanting to talk about the fun things at our company. But as soon as I start, she interrupts me. Last time she even suggested that I quit my job and start a business with her, but we had agreed before, and she promised to wait for me."
Arlong couldn’t understand why women are so fickle.
Kiara wasn’t surprised at all.
"That’s just her temperament. I have my own nickname for people like her: ’Goldfish Personality,’ with a memory that lasts only seven seconds."
Just like when Kiara saved Flora Jim’s sister, Yena Jim was so grateful to Kiara that she couldn’t thank her enough, and back then, her gratitude was sincere.
But after a while, she pushed Kiara’s kindness to the back of her mind and clung to Arlong, and her selfishness at that time was also real.
People like this always live in the moment and have short memories. Once the excitement fades, they forget everything. They do whatever benefits themselves. When she promised to wait for Arlong, she meant it, but after a few months, when she found a better target, she forgot her past promises, just like she forgot Kiara’s favor in saving her sister. These are all natural occurrences.
"I don’t want to quit my job... Brother-in-law said that it’s possible for me to work and take exams at the same time. My academic courses have been improving, and I also like the company... but actually, our issues are not just this." Arlong took a deep breath, feeling on the verge of Desperation.
"Actually, I suspect... that she has another man Outside, but I can’t be certain." Arlong steeled his heart and spilled his private concerns.
"How did you come to suspect that she’s cheating on you?"
"Last time I went to see her without telling her in advance, and when I called her from right outside her house, she said she wasn’t home, but I could see the lights on in her room. So I squatted outside and waited for nearly 3 hours. At midnight, I saw three guys leave her house, get into a BMW, and drive away. I climbed over the wall and found her just out of the shower."
When Arlong saw Flora Jim wrapped in a bath towel, his heart turned cold. He rushed up and asked Yena Jim why she said she wasn’t home. She slapped him in response and asked why he came unannounced and whether he didn’t trust her. When Arlong spotted a red mark on her shoulder and asked about it, Flora slapped him again, claiming it was a mosquito bite. If he didn’t trust her, he should get out. Furious, Arlong turned and left on the spot.
Three...!!
Kiara couldn’t help but imagine a bright green hat appearing on her brother’s head, three of them, stacked up like a totem pole.
"That day Yayaka was out of town attending a speaking contest with the School, so she wasn’t home. I was puzzled why she would lie about not being home if she was just having friends over. I was right outside her door the whole time but never saw her return."
Yena Jim had bought a two-story house with a layout similar to Kiara’s old home, with its own entrance and yard, so it wasn’t possible that the three men were from another house.
"What happened next? Didn’t you confront her? Stupid! Why didn’t you look in the trash for evidence? If there was any, you should have broken it off right away!"
She intentionally turned the tables on him, getting angry just to make him leave quickly - it was to destroy the evidence. Her brother really was a fool for just walking away when told to...
"Later she sent me a text saying I didn’t trust her, that I was being petty... but I wasn’t trying to check up on her. I just wanted to surprise her. After that, I called her twice and she didn’t answer. Now, it’s been half a month without a word from her. I don’t know what to do now... I don’t even know if this counts as breaking up, and I’m scared of wronging her. Sister, analyze this for me—what is she thinking?" Arlong was getting agitated again.
Kiara was even more frustrated than Arlong. It was clear as day what was happening, and yet this poor kid couldn’t see it. She had relegated him to being a spare tire, and here he was, still worried about wrongly accusing her. This was just too...
Dumb!
"Don’t bring your petty problems to me, figure it out yourself—but let me remind you, even if you’re not being cheated on, there’s something she’s keeping from you. At the very least, in her eyes, you’re a man not worthy of trust."
Arlong had hoped for denial from Kiara, but hearing his sister’s words plunged him into Desperation.
Kiara knew this wasn’t the time to push him; she had to give him time to think for himself. Even though he was a bit naïve, he wasn’t stupid. In fact, he already had the answer, he just didn’t want to admit it. It was better to change the subject.
"Deal with your problems later. Right now, I need to talk to you about Mum."
"What’s wrong with Mum?"
Kiara spoke of their mother’s obsession with health products, and Arlong’s spirits lifted instantly.
"What do you want me to do? Sister, I’ll do whatever you say!"
To Arlong, that vague answer seemed less important now. These past two weeks he seemed to be gaining an understanding, though reluctant to accept it.
"This is the persona I’ve created for you. Memorize it, and then let’s head to the labor market together. I found out they recruit people every Week. We’ll pretend we don’t know each other and go for interviews one after the other. Once we’re in, you just stick to the persona I’ve given you and we’ll cooperate..."
Kiara pulled out a piece of paper she had already prepared and started to lay out the plan to her brother.
Both Kiara and Arlong felt that Flora Jim likely had someone else, but Kiara was not entirely right in her assumptions; things were far more complicated than she thought.
