Annette was in a panic. She struggled for a while but couldn't break free.
Austin gazed at her with affection and continued, "Actually, I've wanted to confess to you for a long time, but I was afraid of scaring you off. I've been so anxious, watching you getting closer and closer to Connor. I'm worried that he will take you away from me. That's why I said those things to make you angry, but I regret it every time. Ann, my feelings for you are genuine. I hope you'll consider me. I'm not like him. I can drop everything for you at any time, as long as you say it."
Annette tried her best to calm herself down and said, "Austin, you are my brother. Please let go first."
"Don't call me brother anymore," Austin refused loudly.
