Being able to predict the future–it sounded ridiculous, even to her.

Jean couldn’t explain the details, so all she could do was dodge the question and give a vague, ambiguous
response.
Easton simply smiled at her and didn’t press further.
After all, from the moment he realized he could hear his sister’s thoughts, he’d gradually come to accept many things that weren’t exactly “normal.”
He could hear someone’s inner voice.
And his sister seemed to know a thing or two about the future…
Jean was even smarter and more capable than he had imagined.
At first, he’d been shocked–but after all these years, he’d gotten used to it.
In fact, after hearing so much of Jean’s inner world, he considered himself someone who truly understood her-
She was brave, kind, clever, and fearless.
He liked this version of his sister.
That was also why Easton held such a soft spot for her now.
Of course, she had genuinely helped him–more than once.
Four years ago with Julia, and now with Vienna–if not for Jean, he might have been doomed by now.
“So…” Jean’s voice piped up beside him, her tone light and playful as she batted her eyes and tried to change the subject, “you’re not going to let them off easy, are you?”
It was phrased like a question, but it was said with full confidence.
She knew Easton’s personality–his agent and Vienna…
Were probably in deep trouble by now.
There was no way Easton wouldn’t retaliate.
Easton let out a soft chuckle, his gaze growing a little more careless. “Of course I won’t let them off. Especially the agent-”
At that, his eyes narrowed, and a sharp coldness flashed through them like the glint of a hawk’s gaze. “The thing I hate most is betrayal from those close to me.”
Jean felt a chill run down her spine.
Yikes, scary!
“What… what exactly did you do to them?” Jean pressed a hand over her chest, gasping in mock horror. “Are they even still alive?“.

Easton let out a helpless laugh.
“Do I sound like some kind of killer to you?” he asked dryly.

Jean quickly shook her head and smiled wryly. “Of course not! I’m just curious how you decided to handle it…”
This time, Easton didn’t keep her guessing.
“They’re finished. Their careers are over. They’ll probably be struggling for a long time…” he said plainly.
“I won’t go into details,” Easton added with a cryptic smile. “Kids shouldn’t know too much.”
Of course, the real reason was-
Easton didn’t want Jean to see his cruel side.
Not even a little.
He only wanted to be the good brother in her eyes.
As for the agent and Vienna, he had no intention of letting them off easy.
He’d make sure they were completely ruined.
But that wasn’t something Jean needed to know.
Jean, for her part, took the hint and didn’t push it further. She pouted and said, “Alright, fine–have it your way.”
Then she smiled and added, “Either way, I’m just really happy I could help you out of it.”
She leaned close and shook Easton’s arm affectionately. “I’m so glad nothing happened to you.”
After Easton left her room, Jean was still thinking about what he’d said.
Who would’ve thought that in the original novel, the explosive scandal of Easton allegedly forcing Vienna and even having a child with her-
Was hiding such a wildly different truth behind it all?
