Love for revenge의 모든 챕터: 챕터 71 - 챕터 80

I park the car near the park Giselle visits every day. Stepping out, I slowly walk toward the tall trees that border the path. Just as I’m about to emerge from behind them, a familiar scent reaches me—magnolia, peony, and amberwood—soft and unforgettable. It’s her. It’s Giselle.I close my eyes and breathe it in, savoring the fragrance that has haunted me for months. When I open them again, I spot her delicate figure sitting on a bench. Her hands move slowly, gently caressing the small bump of her belly—our babies growing inside her. My heart shatters as I watch thick tears slide down her cheeks while her lips move, whispering words I can't make out.I lower my gaze, feeling like the most despicable man alive. I did this. I’m the reason she’s crying, the one responsible for her pain—when she should be celebrating, elated to know she’s not infertile as she once believed. But that joy has been tainted... tainted by my betrayal, my cruelty.A thousand apologies run through my mind—ways t

Giselle Days later“Is something wrong?” I ask Matteo, who looks a little upset. “You asked to meet with me as soon as you got back from France.”“It’s about the Lefebvre trial,” he explains, letting out a sigh.“Have they managed to buy off the judge?” I ask, afraid that once again, lies will keep me from getting what’s rightfully mine.“No. But during the evidence hearing, Oliver Lefebvre has decided to stay silent, even though they’ve insisted repeatedly that even if he keeps quiet, there’s enough proof against him and the trial will go on.” I frown at his words, unsure what to make of them.“Why is he doing that? Does he think that will convince the judge he’s innocent?”“I don’t know what his strategy is. Maybe he’s trying to wear us down, hoping you’ll withdraw the charges. It’s strange, though his parents keep insisting they’re innocent and that this is all your revenge.”“How can they lie so easily?” I complain, holding back tears. It’s almost impossible for me, thanks to my

As I walk out of the courthouse, I place a hand over my small belly where my babies seem to feel every wave of my emotions. A sharp pain in my lower abdomen makes me gasp, and through my tears, I glance back one last time at the place where Oliver will finally pay for all his crimes. I’m certain of it—this time, justice will be served.“Are you okay?” a voice pulls me from my thoughts.“What are you doing here?” I snap, stepping away from Nathan as he tries to wrap an arm around my shoulders. “Don’t touch me. I warned you last time—stay away from me. I can’t stand any kind of contact with you. Not even the smallest gesture.”“Why are you like this? Did Oliver do something to you?” he asks, ignoring everything I just said.“T-That’s none of your business. Whatever happened between Oliver and me is our problem. Just leave me alone,” I stammer, voice shaky as I try to keep walking. But my body is too worn down from the past few weeks, and dizziness overwhelms me, leaving me too weak to r

Nathan When I catch the determined look in Giselle’s tearful eyes, I realize that no matter what I do, she’ll never be able to forgive me—let alone trust me again. The weight of that thought crushes me, and I stay on my knees, frozen on the floor, watching her walk away.“Is it true what she said?” my nanny asks.“I never lied to her. I was trying to get information about her lab…”“I’m not talking about that,” she cuts me off coldly. “I mean the threat. What you said to her—was it true?” she presses, and I turn my face away, unable to admit that yes, I was low enough to threaten her over something so sensitive.“It’s true,” I confess, her gaze forcing the truth out of me.“How could you do something so despicable?” she scolds, shaking her head. “I know I should know my place, and maybe I’m overstepping, but I’ve always seen you as one of my own grandchildren—not just the little boy I used to look after. And right now, Nathan, I’m deeply disappointed in you. I know your mother would

**This chapter contains graphic content that may be disturbing to some readers. Discretion is advised.With a gasp, I watch as Oliver’s parents and their son stare each other down defiantly. It isn’t until the judge slams his gavel twice that they all snap back to reality and are forced to take their seats.“How did your parents manage to forge the document?” Matteo asks Oliver once the room falls silent.“We had help from the Lemaire family’s attorney,” Oliver answers truthfully, prompting my hand to curl into a tight fist. The very man who once claimed to be a friend of my parents had also played a part in destroying everything. “After we got Giselle’s signature, he made sure someone forged it to present the transfer as an original document.“He did it in exchange for a share of the lab’s equity. My parents had no choice but to agree—otherwise, their plan would’ve failed. The lawyer had plenty of connections at court, so manipulating the system in our favor wasn’t difficult.”“Back
