Put in a real raise on the flop and fold the turn as played. If you raise the flop in a way that actually has FE then you don't have to get blown off your draw on the turn.

Assuming no reads I give credit to the strong flop bet, am wary of the potential check raise from other opponent, and know I am not drawing to the nut straight or flush, and so I fold.
If I had the right reads to do a check raise I do it to 1.5*pot.
As played I definitely fold turn.
