During this period, Isabelle was tormented terribly, unable to eat or sleep well. Everything she had done to Aurora was returned to her a thousandfold.
She shivered in the basement. When the door opened and light appeared, she didn’t react immediately, until Sebastian walked in. Only then did she awaken as if from a dream, scrambling over and hugging him like a drowning person grasping a lifeline
“Bastian, I was wrong! Please forgive me, I’ll never bother you and Aurora again, I go far away in the future, and I’ll never be an eyesore to you again, please let me go. I really know I was wrong!”
The woman was sobbing uncontrollably as she begged for mercy, looking utterly miserable.
Sebastian didn’t speak, carefully examining that face, which had lost its purity and beauty, leaving only endless desire and greed. Why exactly did he lose. the most important person because of her?
Thinking of this, Sebastian got angry, wishing he could dismember Isabelle, but Lydia and Aurora weren’t wrong. At its root, he was momentarily blinded. All Isabelle did was borrow his influence.
He calmed down for a moment, then threw the photos down. Isabelle’s pupils suddenly constricted in surprise after seeing the content.
Those were the things from her past she most wanted to bury. She only returned to the country because she couldn’t make it abroad, but she didn’t expect them to be dug up.
She was flustered and utterly at a loss.
“No, no, no… This isn’t me, Bastian, believe me, that’s not me in there, this must all be Photoshopped! Someone’s trying to frame me!”
“It’s Aurora, it’s her, right? She doesn’t want you to let me go, so she made these things to make you angry…
She clutched her head, continuing to speak ‘frantically, as if she had gone completely mad
“I wasn’t like this abroad at all! I went to a top–tier university, I had a good job, and a boyfriend who loved me, none of this happened, it’s all fake, this shouldn’t be my life!”
As she spoke, she started sobbing uncontrollably.
When she first went abroad, she indeed lived a carefree and joyful life. Thanks to her attractive looks, she had several ambiguous admirers, all willing to spend money on her, and even if she messed up, someone would sort it out for her. But over time, she didn’t know when, but the people around her started leaving her one by one. She couldn’t get her graduation certificate and had to spend money to buy a certificate from a third–rate school. Finding a job was also a dead end everywhere, she couldn’t even support herself.
With no other choice, she resorted to selling her body to win others‘ affection, but soon, her reputation spread throughout the country, and she lost her footing, so she had to return home.
At first, she was glad that Sebastian was still foolishly waiting for her back home, but now, she realized her life hadn’t changed, everything came with a
price.
She knelt down, sobbing and crying, apologizing and kowtowing. Sebastian showed no expression throughout, just watching her. It wasn’t until Isabelle ran out of strength that he finally spoke.
You can
The unexpected answer made the womans eyes widen in surprise, muttering disbelief.
“What Bastian, what did you say?”
Sebastian repeated himsell, following her lead.
“You can leave, Isabelle. From now on, we have no relationship whatsoever. I did love you once, but too much time has passed, and now there’s someone else in my heart.”
Hearing these words, she didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, or rather, she didn’t even know where she could
Baian left, no longer bothering with fiabelle. The door remained open, and no bodyguards came to force or torment her anymore. But suddenly, felt that the unknown future was even more terrifying than the present,
After a long while, Isabelle slowly stood up and stumbled out
She left The Hawthorne Family, and no one knew where she went, nor did anyone care about her choice.
After getting enough rest, Bastian took back the company. Lydia sighed in relief; her ambition since childhood was never to manage the family business; she had her own dreams and plans.
