All Chapters of Marrying My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin: Chapter 301 - Chapter 310

The other little voice fell silent.Isolde had her answer. She took a deep breath, leaned on her cane, opened the closet, and took out the folder. She gripped it tightly. Her heart raced at the thought of the coming confrontation as her mind hurried to organize what she would say.Just then, the sharp screech of brakes sounded from downstairs. She turned her head, her breath catching.A sleek red sports car sped into the drive, executed a sharp drift, and stopped precisely in front of Bruce.The door opened. A stylish, composed woman with a striking presence stepped out quickly in high heels.It was Jane.With anxious affection, she hurried forward and grabbed Bruce's arm, tilting her head up as she spoke to him urgently.The distance was too great for Isolde to hear what she said, but she clearly saw Bruce's brow furrow at once. His usual calm gave way to a serious expression.Without hesitation, he gave a slight nod, then strode forward, leaned neatly into Jane's car, and sat

Richard's gaze deepened. The affection in his eyes was no longer concealed. "Take this chance to stop and rest properly. In the future, you could open a flower store, or…"He paused briefly. "I know it isn't appropriate for me to say this now, but Izzie, I really don't want to miss this chance again."I like you. I've liked you for a long time. Over the past few years, I've woken from dreams in the middle of the night more times than I can count, filled with regret. I kept asking myself why I didn't confess back then, why I didn't keep you by my side."Izzie, I've achieved success in my career. I have savings, a car, and a house. My career is developing well, and there's still plenty of room to grow. I have enough confidence to promise you a future."I can give you a life where you never have to worry about making ends meet. You can simply do the things you enjoy, reading, traveling, playing with cats, walking dogs. Let me take care of you for the rest of your life, alright?"Isol

The atmosphere inside the car felt heavy.Jane sat in the front passenger seat and turned her head. Her exquisitely applied makeup framed a perfectly measured smile. Her gaze settled on Isolde as she spoke in a friendly tone. "Hello, my name is Jane Brown. I'm Bruce's... friend."The moment Isolde saw her, discomfort spread through her body. That familiar feeling returned, as if she were the unnecessary third person.She barely kept her composure and replied politely, "Miss Brown, you're just as beautiful as the rumors say."Jane raised an eyebrow. "You've heard of me?" Isolde knew far more than that.She glanced at Bruce beside her. His face was tense, and her expression turned complicated. In the end, she said nothing.Jane's gaze shifted between them, as if she had understood something, and she revealed a playful smile. "Well, considering the relationship between Bruce and me, it's normal that you've heard of me."The words carried an unmistakable ambiguity. Isolde's finger

Bruce was so angry his chest ached as he looked at Isolde. He lifted her chin and forced her to meet his gaze as he asked the most crucial question. "So… you never liked me and kept pushing me away because you thought my heart belonged to someone else?"Isolde habitually started to nod, but suddenly realized the flaw in that logic. If she nodded, wouldn't that mean that without Jane, she would have liked him?"That's not how it is. Our relationship was a cooperative one to begin with—""I like you," Bruce said, cutting her off, each word firm and decisive.Everything fell silent. Those three words crashed beside her ears like thunder, then echoed again and again in her mind.Isolde's eyes widened. She stared at Bruce in disbelief, her thoughts in chaos, almost unable to form a coherent idea.'He said he likes me? Bruce? That lofty, flawless man I've never even dared to imagine for me… likes me?'His eyes were serious and deep. Intense, overwhelming emotions surged within them, n

However, it was this very Bruce who had chosen to let go three years ago simply because Isolde had smiled so happily.The memory struck Isolde's heart like a heavy blow. It trembled without end. Yet as she faced Bruce now, she felt not the slightest fear or rejection. Instead, an inexplicable sense of relief escaped her.Isolde smiled softly."Bruce…" Her voice was gentle yet solemn. "From now on, I'll do my best to treat you well."Bruce stared at her, stunned. His eyes flickered violently. He had already torn away the sick, twisted mask he once hid behind, yet she showed not the slightest disgust or disdain. A smile slowly appeared in his eyes and gradually spread to the corners of his lips.Bruce rested his forehead against hers. His gaze was deep as an abyss. "Isolde, you're really going to take my life."At that moment, greed rose within him. He wanted more. He wanted to draw out her love.…Bruce's long fingers held a spoon as he brought a spoonful of soup, cooled to the
