Chapter 2430
My Substitute CEO Bride
"Hey! Slow down, Kalo!" Chevy chased after Kalo.
However, Kalo was completely panicking right now. He was not listening to anything, just running forward without thinking.
In his own way, Kalo felt sad. He had lost. He tried to ignore his feelings and not dwell on them.
He thought to himself, 'Kalo, stop overthinking it! All along... All along... I've just been...'
The images of Anox and Teresa's smiles flashed through his mind.
'All along, I've only ever been seen as the younger brother.
'Since I was a child, I've always been flamboyant. Maybe it wasn't innate. I just wanted people to notice me. That's right. I finally realized that the reason I've always been like this is because of my brother's influence...
'My brother is the kindest brother in the world. He always lets me have my way, even in this matter. But I never realized it. I've always been a fool who wasn't satisfied and kept taking from him...
'I've always climbed on Anox's shoulders to see higher. I... I've started to hate that part of myself.'
Kalo, who was lost in thought, was standing in the middle of the street.
The light turned red. Several cars up ahead that were unable to brake well on the slippery road began skidding.
"Get out of the way!" The driver of a large truck in the lead desperately tried to control the steering wheel as he slammed on the brakes.
Yet Kalo, who was overwhelmed and disoriented, did not notice any of this happening.
In that split second, Chevy yanked Kalo back to the sidewalk, narrowly avoiding a disaster.
Chevy grabbed Kalo by the collar and punched him square in the face.
Kalo finally snapped out of his daze.
"Chevy?"
"Idiot! I've had it with you both, the way you keep giving in and stepping back! You two aren't the same person!"
Kalo stared at the furious Chevy, stunned. In his memory, Chevy was always the calm and cool one, but now, he was... angry?
"Chevy, what's wrong with you?"
"Listen, Kalo!"
"Okay."
"You're Kalo! You're not Anox, and Anox isn't you. Even though you look almost identical, you both have many differences!
"You can think for yourself, and you can have your own thoughts. But you're always so concerned about your brother's feelings. Kalo, when will you finally step out of your brother's shadow?
"Let me be blunt! Whether or not the other party likes you, that's something to think about later. First, ask yourself. Do you really like Teresa? Your own feelings, your true thoughts-what are they?!"
"My... true feelings..."
Cars whooshed by one after another on the road.
The light turned green, and the traffic flowed smoothly again.
"I... I get what you mean, Chevy. I... I'll think about it..."
"Good! Kalo, hold on to what you're feeling right now!"
The two of them then found Teresa and the others on a nearby bench. Chevy then handed Teresa the coat.
"It just finished drying. It might still be a bit cold."
"It's fine. Kalo, can you give me the first aid kit?"
However, when Kalo saw Anox's coat on Teresa, he felt lost again.
"Kalo?" Teresa asked again.
Chevy gave Kalo a light slap on the back.
The next moment, Kalo handed the first aid kit to Teresa.
"Alright, I'll take care of the wound. Fortunately, it's not too serious." Teresa sighed
in relief and then called over to Chevy, "Chevy, can you help me with this?"
"Yeah." Chevy nodded, giving Kalo a meaningful look.
Kalo understood.
Hold on to his feelings from before, huh?
While Teresa and Chevy were tending to Enid's wound, Kalo called out to Anox.
