Chapter 870

Author: Love Berries
As expected, Lucas’ aggressive words made Leonard’s expression shift.

He let out a dry chuckle. “Does everything have to be measured in terms of personal gain?”

Lucas replied without hesitation, “Of course. No one does anything without a reason.”

It was a truth he had understood since he was a child.

That was why any sudden show of concern from others was always met with suspicion.

And Leonard’s offer was no exception.

Leonard was speechless.

He finally understood—there was no reasoning with a man like Lucas.

Simple matters always became complicated in his hands.

He didn’t want to argue anymore.

All he wanted was to help—why was that so hard to believe?

Holding back his frustration, Leonard turned to Aurora, his voice serious. “Aurora, please believe me. I really don’t have any other intentions. I just want to help you.

“I can’t stand watching the people who hurt you still walk free.

“They’re the ones who deserve punishment the most.”

Aurora had known Leonard for some time now.

    “Miss Walton, you’re finally here.”When the director saw Aurora arrive, he greeted her enthusiastically, a fawning smile even spreading across his face.The sight made Aurora feel slightly uncomfortable, but she still responded politely and shook hands with him.She thought about it for a moment and figured his enthusiasm must have come from how well the first season of the show had performed.Sure enough, once she proved her strength, there was no need to worry so much afterward.Someone would always help pave the way—real ability was the most convincing thing in this world.“Mr. Smith, there’s really no need to be so polite.”Aurora said quickly. Faced with his enthusiasm, she instead felt a little at a loss.The secretary standing nearby was also shocked. When had he ever seen the director act this warmly?Was this some kind of joke?After all, their boss had always been harsh with others and never bothered to put on a pleasant face.But when it came to Aurora, the wrinkles on his

    Endlessly worrying about what to do would only add to her burden.Instead of tormenting herself, she might as well think about how to face her life from here on out.Yet for some reason, that one sentence kept replaying in Yvonne’s mind.Rejecting Edwin like this almost felt as if she were pushing away an opportunity.Just as he said, being with him would bring her far more benefits than harm.Aside from his obsessive streak, she knew that he had always treated her well.Otherwise, he wouldn’t have taken such good care of her when they were young.So why was she so unwilling to accept him?When that question surfaced, even Yvonne felt lost.What, exactly, was she holding on to?The more she thought about it, the more foolish she felt.Some questions had no clear answers.In that case, it might be better to leave them to fate and let things unfold naturally.After all, she and Edwin had known each other for so many years.They knew each other inside out.And someone like Edwin, once he

    If he hadn’t said it out loud, who else would have noticed?No one would understand how two people once so close could now be turning their blades on each other, especially Edwin. He truly couldn’t understand what he had ever done wrong to Yvonne, why she despised him so deeply.All he wanted was for her to be with him, yet to her it was as if he were asking for her life.But he genuinely loved her—that was why he acted this way.If there were no love, why would there be force at all? Marriage was a lifelong matter.Yet once certain things happened, there was no turning back.That was the lesson Edwin learned during this period.Because he understood all too clearly what kind of image he now held in Yvonne’s eyes.If he didn’t take action, she would only drift farther and farther away.The past replayed in his mind like a revolving lantern.He couldn’t stand by and watch Yvonne throw herself into someone else’s arms.After all, she had been the wife he had already claimed in his heart

    Edwin didn’t want things to turn out this way either.He only wanted to follow his heart and be with the woman he liked—what was wrong with that?“So this is it? Are you just going to keep forcing me like this?”Yvonne took a deep breath before asking the question.She truly couldn’t understand how the Edwin she remembered—someone who had once treated her well—had become like this.She knew he had always been obsessive at heart, but that side of him had never been directed at her.That was why she never felt afraid.But now it was all turned on her—more intensely than he ever treated anyone else.Only then did she realize something was deeply wrong.A saying she once saw online surfaced in her mind.A blade never hurts until it cuts your own flesh.Wasn’t that exactly what she was experiencing now?She had always believed he would treat her well.She never imagined he would demand, pressure, or force her.It all felt unreal, like a nightmare.Yet it was happening.“Fine. Since this con

    The man she liked should have been someone like Lucas—upright, steady, someone who could truly shoulder responsibility.But Lucas already had someone by his side.She couldn’t become a third party and intrude on that.After turning it over again and again, even now, Yvonne couldn’t pinpoint what she was hesitating over.Hearing nothing from the other end of the line for a long while, Edwin grew restless.“Yvonne, what exactly is going on with you? Can you give me a straight answer—will you be with me or not?”“I just feel like… isn’t this shift between us happening too fast?”Yvonne stayed silent for a long moment before finally saying it.She felt she couldn’t adapt to Edwin being this forceful with her.They had grown up together as friends.When Lucas never ran wild or caused trouble with her, it was Edwin who did all of that by her side.What they shared had long surpassed ordinary friendship.But at the same time, Edwin had also shown her his ugliest side.That was exactly why she

    If she kept posturing over this, it really would be inappropriate.“I’m sorry. This was my fault.”Yvonne apologized sincerely. “I’m grateful that you saved me today, but—”“Enough, Yvonne. Don’t you think you’re being hypocritical?”Her mind filled with question marks.She couldn’t understand what Edwin meant.She had already apologized honestly—why was he still pressing her?What exactly did he want her to do before he would let this go?Besides, Edwin wasn’t blameless either.The way he showed up back then had been completely lacking in manners.Her parents were elders—turning up late at night like that was entirely inappropriate.And now he had the nerve to ask why she was being so harsh on him?Sometimes, people who seemed pitiful really did have something detestable about them.That saying existed for a reason.Right now, Edwin embodied it perfectly.He wasn’t someone worth pitying.After all, everyone knew exactly what kind of person he was.What he did was crossing the line.At
