Chapter 211

Irvin met my gaze upon hearing what Julianne said. When he saw that she was speaking the truth, his grip on the pen tightened.Julianne had always been good at noticing Irvin's subtle reactions. She felt a glimmer of hope when she saw the way he was acting. She thought Irvin had believed her again this time.Noticing the subtle movement too, I sneered and was about to say something.However, Irvin extracted his arm from Julianne's hold and stared at her. Then, he huffed and sardonically said, "Do you think I'm an idiot just because I treat you like a sister, Lianne?"Julianne froze. I, too, was shocked. Neither of us had expected Irvin to say that.Her eyes quickly filled with tears once she realized what was happening."How could you say that about me, Irvin? I'm only doing this for your own good!" she cried as her tears fell.Despite saying this, she couldn't resist cursing him inwardly. It wasn't that she thought he was an idiot—he actually was one!Other people fought vicio

Chapter 212

"Irvin, I wasn't trying to accuse Millie," Julianne began. "I just… I just guessed that it was her from the signs…"Before she could finish her sentence, Irvin snapped angrily, "Enough, Julianne! I trust you like family, not for you to treat me as a fool!"They had grown up together, raised by the same mother. He had truly seen her as his sister. Yet she…"Irvin, I really…" Julianne tried to explain.But Irvin didn't want to hear another word from her. He had someone drag her out.I had clearly told him that I was innocent, the sufferings I had endured, and how many times Julianne had deceived him over the years.I also let him know that the reason Julianne had slandered me and manipulated our relationship wasn't solely because she misunderstood and thought I had drugged her.I had never wished her harm. It was she who couldn't stand seeing me happy.Even so, despite knowing everything, Irvin still didn't doubt what had happened back then because they had grown up together. He

Irvin had to let go before he could have another chance. If he didn't make me lower my guard, there would never be any progress between us again. So, he said the same thing I did, "No, I won't reconsider. Thank you."But no matter what, he couldn't say it with a smile like I did. Seeing how determined we were, the staff could only sigh and proceed with the divorce paperwork.Our divorce had been incredibly difficult, dragging on for so long. But now, it was completed in just a matter of minutes.And just like that, Irvin and I were no longer husband and wife.Staring at the divorce certificate in my hand, I was momentarily dazed.Irvin's eyes, however, were red with unshed tears. Even though he never truly wanted to give up on our marriage, he was just letting go temporarily in hopes of a better future.Even so, when we got married, he had never once thought about divorce. He always believed we would grow old together.Who would have thought that in just four years, we had e

Irvin stood there, watching me turn and leave without hesitation. He watched me get into the car and drive away until I was completely out of sight. His heart suddenly felt like it had a hole in it, allowing the wind and snow to rush in. He staggered, almost unable to stand properly.Although he would never allow what he feared to happen, my determination terrified him. He was afraid that after this separation, there would be no more chances between us.He was truly scared of that happening.Snowflakes landed softly on his face.Looking at the snow, he suddenly recalled the Christmas Eve before Julianne returned from abroad. That night, the snowfall was just as heavy as it was now. Since I had always loved the snow, a white Christmas was absolutely perfect. It was so romantic.I insisted on walking to the restaurant to enjoy the scenery along the way. As always, he listened to me and happily held my hand as we walked to the restaurant. The snow was falling heavily. Soon, our

Chapter 215

However, Julianne needed money right now.Previously, I had demanded that she return everything Irvin had given her. Irvin had promised that once she returned those things, he would give her something else, something even more than what she had given back.But up until now, he still hadn't given her anything.How was she supposed to survive without money? How?Julianne had always been used to a luxurious life, so even a single day without money felt unbearable to her. She explained, "Irvin, I really wasn't trying to slander Millie. I'm just worried about you two. I know you gave her everything because you feel guilty. But… have you ever thought about how dangerous it is for a woman to have such a huge sum of money? "It's like a kid walking on the street holding gold. It'll only attract trouble for her."Irvin couldn't help but laugh at the absurdity of her words. She really just claimed to be worried about me?"Lianne, do you really take me for a fool?" he asked.Did she rea

Chapter 216

Irvin had always firmly believed that I was faking my injuries and making a scene. Aside from Travis and my parents telling him I was fine, the main reason was that he thought I had made up the entire kidnapping case just to compete with Julianne for his attention. So, when the kidnappers forced him to choose between us, he picked Julianne without hesitation. After I fell off the cliff, he assumed it was all part of my plan and didn't worry about me at all.Even when he went to the hospital to make me apologize to Julianne and saw how badly I was hurt, he still thought I was faking it. And even if I really was injured, he believed I had brought it upon myself.After all, in his mind, I was the one who had planned it.After realizing that I had truly been seriously injured, he finally understood that the kidnapping wasn't something I had planned.He regretted it so much that the thought overwhelmed him, making it unbearable. Still, he never once suspected that Julianne was the

Chapter 217

The news of Julianne's arrest reached me quickly. When Mark told me he could get her sentenced to at least ten years in prison, I raised my glass to toast him.Feeling good, I drank a little more than usual.I walked home, a little tipsy and light-headed. But when I reached my apartment building and saw Irvin standing in the cold wind, my good mood instantly plummeted.Even though he had given me everything he had, I genuinely didn't want to see him ever again, especially not now.Just as I was about to ignore him and head upstairs, Irvin called out to me."Lianne was arrested," he said.I stopped walking and turned back with a cold sneer. "Why? Are you here to beg me to let your dear sister go?"The sarcasm in my eyes pierced his heart. He had no idea how terrible of a person he was to me, that even now, I assumed he had come to plead for Julianne."No, Emi, I came to apologize. I'm sorry, it was my—""Stop apologizing," I cut him off. "I won't forgive you, and I don't want t

Chapter 218

Even though my heart had been tampered with countless times, Mom's words still stung a little.She actually said she would cut ties with me. She actually went that far for Julianne.Why? Why was she willing to go to such lengths for an adopted daughter?At first, she didn't even like Julianne. Maybe, over time, she grew to like her more because of her misunderstandings about me, thinking that I was cruel and heartless.But after she learned the truth and realized I didn't do those things, why didn't she feel guilty for misunderstanding me? Why did she continue to treat me this way?Even when there was proof that Julianne was evil and not as nice as she had believed, not only did she not dislike Julianne, but she still tried to do things for her.Why?Why did she still love Julianne so much?Even after being hurt by her so many times, I still couldn't bring myself to cut ties with Mom. And yet, she could. How could she do this?I was overwhelmed with pain and endless spirals of

Chapter 219

Mom's eyes widened in shock, as if she never expected me to say that. After a long pause, she finally said, "Millicent, you are completely inhumane!"I chuckled. "Well. I never had a humane mom to begin with."…After knowing Mom could no longer affect me, Julianne started begging Irvin again. When he went to visit her, she bawled her eyes out. "Irvin, I know I was wrong… I really do…"She knew it would be useless to deny it, so she could only plead with Irvin. "I thought that she had drugged me. I hated her so much that I lost control and did something terrible. But I really know I was wrong now…"She sobbed so hard that anyone who saw her would feel their heart breaking.But the man, who had once adored her and couldn't bear to see her suffer even the slightest discomfort, showed no trace of emotion on his cold face. Irvin could understand that she had done the wrong thing out of hatred, but he couldn't forgive her. And he had no right to forgive her.If she hadn't grown up

Chapter 220

As Julianne saw that Irvin showed signs of wavering, she cried even harder. "Irvin, I didn't! I didn't mean to kill her! I just wanted to make her angry. It was really an accident that she fell off the cliff and got so badly hurt."She continued, "If I really wanted to kill her, I would have let them do it when they kidnapped her. Why would I wait until you arrived? "And you know that cliff isn't even that high. Why would I choose such a short one if I wanted her dead? I really, really didn't mean for her to die. That was just an accident…"Julianne sobbed pitifully. It was such a heartbreaking sight that even the coldest person would feel sorry for her. Let alone Irvin, who had pampered her so much that it had become a natural instinct to him.Moreover, deep down, he had always believed that she wasn't truly evil. And so, he believed her. He believed that Julianne never intended to kill me.That she didn't do those things out of malice but because she was mentally unstable, beli
