Your Love Once Burned Fiery Chapter 9
It was my parents who reported Eleanor to the police. Most likely, she would be charged with fraud and with causing me bodily harm.Prison time was inevitable. She would also be required to repay, in full, everything she had spent during her years living with the Sterling family.There was a faint sense of vindication in my heart, but I no longer cared much about it. Those who do evil will eventually pay the price.I only wondered whether my parents, when they looked back on everything they had done to me over these years, felt even the slightest trace of remorse.Early the next morning, Grandpa and I headed to the airport.Unexpectedly, I still saw the three people I never wanted to see again."Chloe, you're my granddaughter," Grandpa said quietly. "And your father is still my son. I'm old now. I can only protect you for a few more years."You're my only grandchild. In the end, the Sterling family's estate will still be handed to you. Don't blame me."I nodded.I didn't blame

Jonathan waited an hour.Three hours.Five hours…I knew his endurance well. Back when he still loved me, he had once stood by my side and endured hardship with me.He stood there for three days and three nights.By the time Grandpa finally walked up to him, he had already fainted twice from exhaustion. The flowers in his hands had long since withered. His knees were so stiff he could barely move.Yet he still clenched his teeth and staggered forward, step by unsteady step."Grandpa Sterling…"It was as if he had seen hope. His face was full of pleading.But Grandpa Sterling's expression hardened. He avoided the hand Jonathan tried to reach out."Jonathan," Grandpa said coldly, "it's probably not appropriate for you to call me Grandpa anymore."Only then did Jonathan truly understand.The woman he had married—Eleanor—had already been proven not to belong to the Sterling family.That meant he no longer had any connection to the Sterling family at all.Still, Jonathan refuse

According to Eleanor's original plan, once they returned to the Sterling family's old estate, she would make her move against Grandpa.After that would come several days of mourning. By the time they returned home again, I would have already starved to death.She tried desperately to stop everyone from going back, but she couldn't override their determination.When the car finally pulled up in front of the Sterling residence again, the first person to leap out was Jonathan."Chloe… Chloe…"He strode into the living room—and in that instant, he saw bloodstains on the staircase, still there, never cleaned up.Panic surged through him. He shouted my name even louder."Chloe! Chloe! Where are you—"But all of them had overlooked something.When Grandpa sent the group message, he had already made it clear: I had been taken away by him.The three of them searched the villa in a frenzy. Only Eleanor stood frozen in the center of the living room, lost and stiff, her eyes drifting aga

Jonathan felt as if his entire world had collapsed.He wasn't the only one. The Sterling couple stood frozen in place, stunned into silence for a long moment.The Sterling family patriarch had personally led the investigation. There was no way the results could be false. After all, no one cared more about the purity of the Sterling bloodline than the old master himself.He would never fabricate a paternity test just to favor me.Slowly, everyone turned their gaze toward Eleanor.Anger. Shock. Collapse. And above all—resentment.Under those stares, Eleanor felt her skin crawl. She vaguely sensed what this meant. Still, she forced a calm smile, pretending to be confused."What's wrong with all of you? Why are you looking at me like that?"The first to break down was Mother."Eleanor… tell me the truth. Are you really our biological daughter?"As expected.A chill ran through Eleanor's heart. Her identity had been exposed after all. But she couldn't admit it. If she did, everyth

Sure enough, Jonathan was standing behind her."Eleanor has already apologized to you. You should forgive her," he said, his tone edged with impatience, as if my refusal made me unreasonable.I didn't respond. I simply pulled my hand free and turned to leave.But Eleanor clutched my wrist tightly."Chloe, it's fine if you don't want to forgive me. After all, you'll still be living here for another three years. There's plenty of time for you to forgive me."At her words, I turned to Jonathan in disbelief.He stiffened, then avoided my gaze, guilt flickering across his face.Seeing my reaction, Eleanor let out a strange, mocking laugh."What's wrong? Chloe, don't tell me you didn't know? Jonathan agreed to stay by my side and the children's side for another three years, just to get the Sterling family to take you in. After all these years, his devotion to you really hasn't changed."His promises. My waiting.Three years, then another year. One year after that… another three yea

Perhaps he had forgotten that when he had just married her, he once swore solemnly to me that he wouldn't share any real marital intimacy with Eleanor.By now, their second child was already three months old.I lowered my head weakly, my body at its absolute limit.He knew exactly how badly I had been hurt, yet there wasn't a single word of concern from him. What seemed like gentle advice was, from start to finish, nothing but accusation.Even Eleanor's deliberate frame-up was reduced to five light words. "Eleanor really did frame you."How ironic.Or maybe he simply hadn't realized—he had already, completely, aligned with Eleanor, just like my parents."There's nothing left to consider. I can let you have this," I said. "You already have two children. I'm sure you wouldn't want them to grow up without a father."Jonathan's expression faltered for a moment. Then, almost instantly, anger flared across his face.He roared at me like a madman."Chloe! I've done so much for you, s
