All Chapters of Love You Like I Used To? Forget It!: Chapter 421 - Chapter 430

Before Henry could leave, I said, "I don't need to think it over. I won't agree to your conditions."He froze mid-step, clearly not expecting me to say that."What did you say?" Henry asked in disbelief."I said—I won't agree to your conditions."I enunciated each word so that he would hear them clearly."Do you even realize what you're saying, Emilia?" Henry spat, furious at my refusal. "The Ashfords have been so good to you. Yet, you're seriously just going to watch Ava die when you can save her?"I shrugged. "So what if I do? I've never claimed to be a good person."I was going to save Ava, but it wouldn't be on his terms."You—You—You—" He sputtered. Eventually, he shouted, "Fine! Then go ahead and watch that girl die with your own eyes!"With that, he stormed off, fuming.After seeing his reaction, I suddenly felt I had been overthinking things. No matter how you looked at it, a man like him didn't seem like a master manipulator who worked behind the scenes.I couldn't

William was extremely brilliant and as terrifying as a devil, with an extraordinarily sharp instinct. Julianne stood no chance of poisoning him. He could sense her intention the moment the thought even crossed her mind. However, William didn't show it outwardly.He knew Julianne very well. She was afraid of dying and had neither the capability nor the courage to even dare think of harming him. It could only mean someone had approached her and planted the idea in her head.William recalled how Henry had claimed he didn't know how to treat Ava, even though William had threatened him. Yet now, he had suddenly told me he could, but only if I agreed to participate in a research project.As a picture began to form, William started to suspect a shadow organization was behind all of this. So, when I called him again, he shared this theory with me. He also told me to let him know ahead of time once I was able to leave this place.I knew William wanted to snatch up Henry the moment we step

I found it strange and couldn't help feeling curious about what happened with Irvin. He was an obsessive man. No matter how much I pushed him away, he would never stop coming after me. But suddenly, he went quiet after what happened that night and stopped looking for me.Still, I didn't try to find out why or ask Irvin anything. Whatever his reason was, the fact that he didn't come was exactly what I wanted.Until one day…When I was having a meal, the fishy smell of the food made me so nauseous I had to run to the bathroom to throw up.The housekeeper, who had cooked, immediately put down the plates she was holding and followed me. Seeing me vomit so badly that even bile came out, she became extremely worried."What's going on?" she asked. "I use only the freshest ingredients when I cook."Since she was paid well, she really did use top-quality, organic ingredients. I shouldn't have gotten sick from it.I frowned too. I didn't think it was food poisoning, either. Usually, vom

In the past, Irvin would pick up right away whenever I called him. But not this time.He just stared at my call on the screen. His heart felt like it was being ripped apart. It was so painful that he could hardly breathe.He didn't dare to answer, but he wanted to so badly. He knew he no longer had the right, but he still couldn't stop himself from wanting to answer the call. He wanted to hear my voice again. And to see me again.Unaware of his inner conflict, I was about to hang up after the long wait. But then, he picked up."Hello." He had only said that one word, but I could sense that something was off. However, I wasn't in the mood to wonder why at that moment. I only wanted to deal with things directly and free myself from this mess.It would either be a happy or a bad ending for us. I no longer wanted to remain in this pain and confusion."I need to talk to you, face-to-face. Let's meet at the café we used to go to. When are you free?" I asked.Hearing that I wanted

Irvin's heart twisted in pain as he saw my eyes welled up with tears. It hurt so much that he could barely stand. Already unstable, his body swayed even more.He wanted to hug me so badly. But he knew he no longer had the right.And he knew I wouldn't let him.He had never imagined that one day, he would do something so unforgivable that he'd lose even the right to touch me.And knowing this was all his fault for not being careful enough, his eyes reddened with rage and hatred at the Hardwells and at himself.He would destroy the entire Hardwell family, including himself."I'm sorry, Emi," he said. "I have to be responsible for her. Forget about me. After all… you couldn't really forgive me completely, right? Rather than staying with me and suffering from the hurt, why don't you just let go and start a new life?"Irvin had always known how much I loved him. He knew I wouldn't be able to let go, even if I couldn't forgive him. It helped him believe we still had a chance together,
