Chapter 79

Author: Your Candy
How had things between them ended up like this? In the end, Alan had truly and completely lost his Isolde.

The next day, Isolde slept in until she woke on her own.

She stretched, relaxed and unhurried, then picked up her phone. An irritating message greeted her on the screen.

It was from Sandra.

The photo showed Sandra linking arms with Alan at an airport boarding gate. She smiled brightly, her posture intimate and triumphant.

Sandra: [I'm going back with Alan to hold our wedding. Isolde

  • Marrying My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin   Chapter 516

    Three days later, at the edge of the Boreas, on St. Brandir's Isle…The town was small. Dozens of wooden cabins stood scattered across the permafrost, their roofs sagging under thick layers of snow.The air cut so sharply it seemed to crack the lungs. Each breath condensed at once into white frost.A single street ran through the settlement. A few shops cast dim light onto the snow, selling frozen fish, furs, and cold-weather gear. Now and then, locals in heavy fur coats hurried past.Mimi led Isolde's group to a wooden house.It was modest in size. Warm yellow light glowed through the windows, and a thin plume of white smoke curled from the chimney."Mr. Fox." Mimi turned to Ezra, her tone polite, but firm. "The Valeciels don't permit outsiders to enter. You will stay here for now."Ezra frowned. "I must follow Ms. Vancrest.""It is the rule." Mimi's voice remained gentle, yet unwavering. "The family has remained hidden from the world for a millennium. There has never been an

    "Alan, you are willing to give up even your life for her. But what about her?" Sandra's voice was gentle, yet every word pierced like a needle. "You are about to die. She refuses to save you, and she is not even willing to come and see you one last time."Alan's fingers curled."Did she ever truly love you?" Sandra stared into his eyes, her tone grief-stricken and indignant."If she truly loved you, how could she be so heartless? Think about it carefully. In all those years you were together, was she ever real with you? Or..." Sandra paused, her voice softening, though it cut deeper. "Were you just a stepping stone for her to reach Bruce?"Alan jerked his head up. "Shut up!"Sandra met his gaze, her eyes filled with pity and a trace of cruel satisfaction. "Alan, you suspect it too, don't you? A man like Bruce has never taken an interest in any woman, so what makes Isolde so special?"Bruce hates you. To get revenge and humiliate you, he would take your woman. Isolde saw that and

    "Ms. Vancrest, don't worry. Nothing happened. Since you're returning to the Valeciels, the Prince needs to make some preparations. He'll be here soon," Erza assured her."As long as nothing happened, it's fine." Isolde let out a breath and stepped toward the car by the roadside.A figure suddenly rushed out and blocked her path.It was Nash. His arm was still in a cast, and his face looked sallow, but his eyes burned with a frightening intensity, like a man dying of thirst staring at water in someone else's hand."Ms. Vancrest!" His voice trembled. His knees buckled, and he dropped to the ground in front of her.Isolde stopped.He looked up, his tone tight with suppressed pleading. "I heard you're returning to the Valeciels?"'He heard?' She had told no one. That meant someone had been following her.Isolde said nothing. She stepped around him and continued forward."Ms. Vancrest…" Still on his knees, Nash shifted half a step and reached out as if to grab her pant leg, then pu

    "Send them away?" Isolde was stunned. "My real father is also a descendant of your family head, isn't he?"Even setting aside the rule that the successor must be a woman, Isolde's biological father should have had a closer claim to the family head.Mimi smiled. "In the Valeciels, women are supreme. You are the most noble person in the family. Everything revolves around you."Isolde's pupils tightened. Mimi's words truly shocked her.She had only intended to test the waters and secure a few guarantees for herself, perhaps a promise of protection or some authority and benefits. She had not expected to jump straight to the endgame.If she could directly banish the fake heiress and her family, then once she arrived in the Valeciels, the initiative would be entirely hers.Isolde rose to her feet. "Mimi, you've had a long journey and worked hard. I'll arrange a presidential suite for you. Get some rest tonight. Tomorrow, I'll go with you to the Valeciels.""Tomorrow?" Mimi hesitated.

    The reception area was spacious and bright, with the Southbridge skyline visible through floor-to-ceiling windows.An elderly woman in a navy blue cotton robe stood before the glass with her back to the door. Her hair was neatly combed, with not a single strand out of place.At the sound of footsteps, she turned.Her face was lined with wrinkles, yet her eyes remained bright, carrying a quiet, settled warmth.She looked toward Isolde, her gaze moving slowly from head to toe. Then she folded her hands and bowed slightly in a precise, old-fashioned gesture. "Hello, Lady Isolde. My name is Mimi."Isolde did not break stride. She crossed the room and sat on the single sofa opposite her."Lady?" She tilted her head, feigning confusion. "My family is ordinary. I can't accept a title like that."She already knew the truth about the real and fake heiresses, but she could not reveal how she had learned it.As Viper had warned, Seraphina's urge to drag everything down with her would brin

    Ezra's brow tightened. "Did he discover the tracker on his body and deliberately detour to the Boreas?"St. Brandir's Isle was the closest settlement to the Boreas. Beyond it lay true no man's land, a frozen expanse of ice and wind. Even a massive family like the Valeciels could not sustain a presence deeper inside. The environment simply was not fit for human survival.Bruce rolled a fountain pen between his fingers, his expression cold and precise. "If he had discovered it, he would have removed the tracker. There would be no reason to drag a severely injured body that far just to toy with us."'The Valeciels…' He pressed the pen to the paper and wrote the word Boreas. The force drove the nib through the page, as if the stroke itself carried killing intent."Gather the men. Head to St. Brandir's Isle in secret and scout for the Valeciels' location. Prepare backup in case anything goes wrong…" Bruce's gaze hardened. "Break into the Valeciels at all costs."Ezra drew in a sharp br

    At that moment, Isolde wished with all her heart that she truly were Bruce's wife. His cooking skills were astonishing, and he judged the portions perfectly for just the two of them. There was not a single extra bite left for Tom.Isolde hesitated, wondering if she could quickly make Tom a sandwich

    After speaking, Bruce stepped forward and got into the same car as Isolde.The door shut, and the car pulled away.Inside, Tom glanced at the rearview mirror and saw Alan collapsed in the snow. Worry creased his face. "Ms. Vancrest, it's freezing out there. He really could freeze to death. Don't y

    Martin strode to Isolde's side, his brows drawn tight, his voice low but steady. "Isolde, I don't believe you're the kind of person the news is describing. What's going on?"Isolde stared at the defamatory, twisted reports, a cold sharpness flashing through her eyes.The news had not broken earlie

    Bruce walked over and handed Isolde a cup of hot milk."Feeling sorry for him?" His voice betrayed neither anger nor pleasure, yet it made her teeth ache with tension. "Want me to call him up and offer him a glass of water?"The warmth seeped from her palms straight to her heart, easing the tightn
