Chapter 462

Penulis: Millie Bridge
Because of my well-known research achievements—and the very public scandal that I was once embroiled in with Grace—I had become somewhat of a public figure.

It didn't take long for some of the guests at the banquet to recognize me. From there, word soon went around that I was a divorcée who had once been married for four years.

While we lived in modern times, society was still more forgiving of men's faults than women's.

A man could get divorced, remarry, or jump into a new relationship without anyone batting an eye. This was especially so when the man had status and influence. In fact, people would think it was expected of him and even believe him capable.

However, this wasn't the case for a woman. It didn't matter how outstanding she was. Once she had been married before, she would be labeled a divorcée—"used goods". People would intrinsically believe such women didn't deserve a good man, nor a good life.

Just like now, the majority of the guests felt a man like William could ha

  • Love You Like I Used To? Forget It!   Chapter 466

    Grace also couldn't help feeling even more envious of me.We lived in the same world and belonged to the same social class. And yet, look at the kind of man Grace ended up having as a husband.Timothy was heartless and had faked his own death. He might even cheat on Grace and bring back a bunch of illegitimate children for her to raise in the future.Oh, let's not forget—Timothy had known full well she wanted to drug Irvin in order to sleep with him. Yet, not only had he not stopped Grace, but he had even helped her. He had helped her deal with Irvin and even made sure she made it to Irvin's bed.As for me? Irvin couldn't even go on living because he believed he had touched another woman.Grace and I had both married Hardwell men. Our husbands were even identical twins, born from the same womb.So why? Why were they so different? They were like night and day. Why was it that Grace didn't match up with someone who truly loved her? What made her undeserving of being loved like that

  • Love You Like I Used To? Forget It!   Chapter 465

    Grace couldn't help laughing at Timothy's words."Do you really think I'm capable of pulling that off?" she asked, feeling incredulous.Timothy was giving her way too much credit. If she could do something like that, would her life have been so difficult? Would she have needed to be constantly cautious of her every move?"Timothy narrowed his eyes at Grace. A dangerous glint flickered in them.However, Grace was unperturbed. She was pregnant with his children, after all. And given the current situation, he needed her help if he wanted to return to the Hardwell family without incident. So, he wouldn't dare do anything to her.Even if he did, and even if Grace was afraid of him, she wouldn't be able to deliver what he was demanding of her anyway.So, Grace met his menacing glare head-on and said, "I really can't do what you're asking of me. You'd better come up with a new plan."Timothy raised an eyebrow. Reaching out to hook a finger under Grace's chin, he tilted her face up and

    Irvin truly had been far too selfish. And to be honest, his brand of love couldn't even be considered real love."I'm not like you," he said. "You love selflessly, which is what real love should be like. No matter what, you'll never do what I did. That's why you can't understand why I could do those things. It's just like how a good person will never understand the reason behind a bad person's misdeeds."So stop trying to. Stop asking yourself why I did those things despite loving you. And stop holding on because you can't figure this out. "Since you've already fully moved on, you should keep moving forward. As for what I've said just now, just pretend it was a bad joke."Sometimes, people clung to things because they couldn't make sense of them. But then, out of nowhere, something would click, and they'd finally be able to let go.That was where Irvin was now.He had loved me so selfishly for so long that he couldn't let me go. It was to the point where he even wanted me to con

    Irvin knew he was to blame for what had happened between us. All of this was the fault of his own stupidity. Still, it hurt him. The pain was agonizing.Forcing himself to elaborate, he said, "I know I'm being illogical, Emi. But please, can you wait for me? Just give me a little more time before you move on?"Irvin wanted me to wait until he had tied up all his loose ends and was gone. Then, I could love someone else. He didn't want to be around to watch as I developed feelings for someone else.He was worried the pain would crush him before the end came. He was afraid it would drive him insane.I studied him incredulously. Frankly, I knew what he meant.When we were completely ending things between us, Irvin had told me to move on. Despite his words, I knew he hadn't said it because he had developed feelings for Grace.On the contrary, it was because he had fallen for Grace's trap and felt himself sullied. He had believed I would never want him again. That was why he had said t

    Once Grace snapped out of her shock, she looked at William and me.She had always been perceptive. It didn't take her long to realize something had changed between us. Her gaze dimmed involuntarily, and she couldn't stop herself from feeling envious.Grace didn't understand. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't fathom how life could be so unfair. After all the hardships she had endured, she still hadn't gotten even the tiniest sliver of genuine affection.Yet, without needing to do a thing, I had.Before, I had Irvin, who had gone white-haired overnight because he believed he had been unchaste toward me. He loved me as though his life depended on it. Now, I had William—the elite circle's most sought-after man—humbling himself just for me.Why? Why was it always me?Grace just couldn't figure out why I kept getting what she wanted most. And the more she couldn't make sense of this, the more uncontrollably mad she became.She knew it wasn't right of her to feel this way, nor
