Semua Bab Jilted Heiress Strikes Back: Bab 241 - Bab 250

In front of the somber, pitch-black tombstone, the four of them fell silent.Raina crossed her arms and let out a quiet laugh, murmuring, “Forever? I don’t believe in that kind of thing anymore. Maybe he could do it back then… but people change. ‘Forever’—it’s just a lie, isn’t it?”Rael had no answer for that.Leo leaned on Rael's shoulder. After a long pause, he said with effort, “…It’s possible, isn’t it? Even if it sounds foolish, I still believe in it. It’s hard, sure, but if someone can manage it… they must be really brave.”Brave?Raina didn’t think so anymore.She’d given her whole heart and ended up with nothing but ruin.She no longer believed.Rael tilted his head slightly, his bloodshot eyes falling on Leo. He used to think this man was simple and pure. So many times, when he returned to Starlace Villa, the f

“Smack—”Before that person could finish speaking, Bastian rushed up and punched him to the ground, then went berserk, raining blow after blow, unwilling to stop, unwilling to let go.These people—fine, let them talk trash about him—but why drag Jared into it?Jared’s face turned pale. It took him a moment before he came to his senses and rushed over to pull Bastian away. Bastian didn’t budge. It took all of Jared’s strength to wrap his arms around him from behind, voice hoarse as he said, “Stop, Bastian… if you keep going, you’ll kill him…”His voice trembled, and so did the hands wrapped around Bastian.Bastian’s eyes were bloodshot. He froze for a long time, then bowed his head slightly, speaking in agony, “I’m sorry, Jared. I’m sorry… I didn’t know it would end up like this, I… I…”

No one knew what was going through Bastian’s mind at the time. But in the end, that didn’t matter. Everyone who stood in his way, everyone who had once looked down on him, humiliated him—he killed them all.Not a single one was spared.To be fair, even if it had been Raina in his place, she might not have done any better.After a moment of reflection, she said slowly, “If that drunked man hadn’t recognized Bastian back then, maybe he really would’ve been content to stay by Jared’s side for the rest of his life, living peacefully and aimlessly. Without all the resentment, without any ambition to fight back, he might’ve never returned to the Cruz. But fate...”She paused and shook her head with a sigh. “The world doesn’t deal in ‘what ifs.’ A mistake is a mistake, and no matter the punishment, you have to bear it.”Rael lowered his eyes and echoed, &l

"Clang—"Mireille flicked the blade with her finger. The sharp clang echoed in the room. A flicker of madness flashed across her face, and her expression twisted slightly, like she was barely holding it together.The next second, she suddenly stood up and strode over to where Sora was hanging upside down. She crouched down, holding the knife in one hand, and started tapping the blade against Sora’s face.Sora’s pupils shrank in fear. She shouted, "Wh… What are you doing? Let me down! Are you crazy?!"Mireille let out a cold laugh, her face contorting even more. She snapped, “Yeah! I’ve been crazy for a long time. Sora, bet you never thought this day would come, huh? Remember what you used to tell me?”Sora was silent.Mireille scoffed and sneered, “Don’t get delusional over stuff that was never yours. You were just my dog. I told you what to do, and you did it,

Sora's eyes widened as she shouted hoarsely, “Reid, you… you…”But she couldn’t finish her sentence. Her eyes brimmed with tears, and her heart sank into the abyss.Reid’s fists clenched tightly, knuckles cracking as he said in a low voice, “What else did you expect? Sora, everything that’s happened—you brought it on yourself. Did you really think I didn’t know what you were doing? You’ve let me down. Completely.”A blank expression flashed across Sora’s face. But it quickly twisted into fury. She struggled in her restraints, her voice sharp and shrill with rage. “Hahahahaha! I let you down?! Reid, anyone else can say that to me—but not you! I did all this for you! I turned myself into this monster for you! And in the end, all I get is you telling me I’m a disappointment? Hahahahaha!”R
