Lahat ng Kabanata ng Love You Like I Used To? Forget It!: Kabanata 111 - Kabanata 120

Irvin understood how Julianne felt. Even so, he couldn't reciprocate her romantic feelings."It doesn't matter how much you hate her, Lianne. You can't do something like this," he scolded her. "You know I've only ever loved you like a sister. It doesn't matter what Emi did. We will never be together regardless. Don't hate her even more over this, okay?"Julianne's birth mother was the Sawyers' housekeeper, Diana Sinclair.After Irvin's mother—Lizzie Windsor—gave birth to him, her body became frail. She had been too weak to raise him. Thus, Diana had practically raised him on her own.Diana had raised both Irvin and Julianne. As such, they had done everything together from a young age. So naturally, they had formed a deep bond.For Irvin, Julianne was like his own younger sister. Hence, he trusted her intrinsically and had always been indulgent toward her. It was to the point where he would always look at things from her perspective. When he found out she was behind Emilia's b

Dad did so to stop Mom from confronting me. According to the fake medical record, I would keep forgetting anything that I had done to Julianne. Therefore, when the drugging video was released, she simply believed I had done it.Because of this, her hatred for me grew despite the fact that I was her own flesh and blood.As for Julianne, she had accidentally discovered that Phillip didn't intend for Irvin to inherit the family business. He also wanted to disown Irvin. Coincidentally, Irvin just happened to be pursuing the person she despised most—me.Because of this, she decided to become the new Mrs. Sawyer. She intended to give birth to a new heir so that she could take over the Sawyer family. She would also make Irvin regret his choice in the process.Thus, she slept with Phillip. She thought he had lusted after her for a long time. Plus, she was also much younger than him. Hence, she was sure he would be in the palm of her hand.However, things went against her expectations. Phi

"You evil witch! What are you trying to do now!" Mom shouted as she hit me. "Was harming Lianne not enough? Now, you want to harm your father too? He's your birth father! What sin did I commit to end up giving birth to a wretched child like you!"Mark—who had been standing to the side—stepped in front of me to shield me from her.A few officers standing nearby had also rushed over and intervened. One of them gave her a stern warning to refrain from making a scene or assaulting someone at a police station. His name tag read "Gordon".However, Mom didn't seem to care where she was or who she was talking to. Her rage had probably blinded her."What's the issue?" she continued shouting. "Is it against the law for me to discipline my daughter? I gave her life! So what if I hit her a few times?"She thought she had the right to beat me to death since she had given birth to me. She also probably thought no one had the right to criticize her for doing so since she was my mom.I had been

Irvin instinctively smiled when he saw me. Or rather, he tried to. Unfortunately, his facial muscles were stiff from the cold and weren't cooperating.It seemed he wanted me to pity him. It was probably all part of his strategy to win me over.My past self couldn't stand seeing him in any pain. It was agonizing to her if he wasn't even the slightest bit uncomfortable.But now? My current self merely looked at him indifferently. I didn't feel anything for him, not even the least bit of attachment. My heart didn't ache. I didn't feel any love or any hate toward him. There wasn't even anger. There was only detachment.My feeling toward him was colder than the winter frost.He started panicking when he saw this. So much so, that he looked as though he could barely breathe."You must be feeling very disappointed in me. Right, Emi?" he asked.Perhaps he finally had time to reflect after placating Julianne. It seemed he remembered how he had misjudged me over the drugging incident.

"You know your father doesn't dare do anything illegal! Also, Lianne definitely didn't frame you. So withdraw the lawsuit right now!" Mom was adamant Dad and Julianne were innocent.I lowered my head upon seeing her conviction.I had no longer expected any maternal love from her. However, that didn't stop me from thinking…She knew I never drugged Julianne. She had also been told that the whole incident had been orchestrated by Dad and Julianne. I thought she would at least feel guilty after knowing the truth. At the very least, she owed me an apology.Yet, just like Irvin, she felt no remorse. They had never once felt they were in the wrong for treating me so unjustly. All they cared about was protecting Julianne.My thoughts wandered back to what she had said earlier—"We're your family. Yet, we don't like you. Even your beloved husband despises you. Can't you reflect on yourself? Stop blaming everyone else!"I couldn't help but wonder if I was truly the problem. Was I not goo
