All Chapters of Sorry, Too Late: Chapter 121 - Chapter 130

'What is all this?'Never mind that Evan had no plans to get married anytime soon—things with Sylvie were already complicated, and now, it was the same with Estelle. He had only met her twice. And most importantly, he was divorced."But I've already been married once…" Evan finally managed."So what?" Belinda didn't care in the slightest. "Evan, we know everything about you. That Solberg girl must've been blind to divorce you! You're thoughtful, you take care of people, you're gifted in business, you can handle both politics and commerce—you're the kind of talent anyone would fight over. And now your medical skills are impressive too. You even know geomancy and metaphysics—where else am I supposed to find a son-in-law like that?"Let me speak from the heart over this meal—Evan, I like you. If you agree, you can become our son-in-law right away. We don't mind in the slightest! Besides, you and that Solberg girl never even shared a bed, did you? That was basically a contract marriage

Sean drew in a long, steadying breath.Zachariah assumed Sean had finally grasped how serious this was. He nodded and went on, "Sean, it's best if you keep your distance from him for the time being. Mr. Solomon said that anyone connected to Evan will be investigated—""I'd like to see him try investigating me!"The sudden roar cracked through the room like thunder, so loud that everyone's ears rang."What?" Zachariah froze on the spot, wondering if he had misheard. 'What did the mayor just say?'"I'd thought it was something serious. So it's just him stirring up trouble in Silverton again? He's a retired noble, nothing more. Does he really think the entire world belongs to him?" Sean snorted. "If you won't protect Evan, fine. I will. I'll make it clear that Silverton isn't his personal kingdom."It was extremely rare for Sean—the calm, respected mayor—to lose his temper, and the outburst left everyone stunned. Zachariah stared at him as if seeing a ghost.'The mayor's going to p

Zeke listened even harder, not daring to miss a single word."So, Evan really wasn't lying—Darius actually framed him. The whole Norwood family knew the truth, yet they still chose to side with Darius and pin the crime of stealing Mr. Solomon's drakeblood gemstone on Evan."Roxanne and Anya stiffened. They remembered that Evan had said something like this before, but no one had believed him. Instead, they had scolded him harshly. If it really had been true—if he had been betrayed by his own family and no one believed him—how hopeless must that have felt?Hazel's gaze sharpened. "If the real Norwood heir was the one who stole it back then, then this time—the counterfeit gemstone—would be part of Darius' plan too." Her voice lowered. "Which means the real gemstone should still be with him."The implication detonated in the room. Even Zeke was stunned. If Hazel was right, it flipped everything on its head—Evan had been carrying Darius' sin all along."But in a circle like ours, who

James and Josephine burst out laughing."But how exactly are we supposed to pull this off?" Josephine asked."It's simple. Darius, you need to destroy every piece of evidence tied to that auction from three years ago—financial records, contact logs, everything. Meanwhile, we'll deliberately leak a few rumors saying Evan swapped out Mr. Solomon's drakeblood gemstone, and we'll even forge evidence showing the fake gemstone in Evan's possession. After that, we just let things take their course. Mr. Solomon will naturally go looking for Evan first," Colette said smoothly.The triplets truly lived up to being the Norwood family's crowned jewels—just a few words, and they had smoothly redirected the disaster onto Evan.Destroying records, spreading rumors, forging evidence… that entire routine was child's play for them. The triplets had used similar methods countless times to ruin business competitors.Darius finally relaxed, a thin, vicious smile tugging at his mouth. 'Evan took the fa

A sly gleam flickered across Estelle's face as she flopped onto the bed, her pale, slender legs kicking lazily in the air like she didn't have a care in the world."You—"He knew she meant every threat. She looked sweet and soft, but underneath it all, she was pure trouble. Dinner at the mayor's had taught him that much. In the end, he had no choice but to let her stay."You're the best, Evan. I knew you'd let me stay." Estelle said, swinging her legs and smiling like honey.Only then did Evan finally understand her purpose—everything she'd said earlier was just misdirection. Her real goal was simply to stay in the villa. By the time he realized it, it was already too late—he had already agreed.'Mayor's daughter, alright. Sly as hell.'"Dr. Norwood, I'm here…"Artemisia's voice drifted in from outside the villa. As usual, she had come for her lessons. But the moment she pushed the door open, she froze.'A bombshell on par with Ms. Stanton living here? Dr. Norwood sure is somet
