Chapter 261

CassandraSeeing her, I was truly shocked. Then the woman pulled Nia’s hair even harder, forcing her backward until she lost her balance and fell.“OUCH!”“Who are you?!”I looked at Nia, who was stunned by the woman who had helped me. It wasn’t only Nia who was shocked, I was too.Nia knew that my relationship with Julie had never been good. There was even a time when Nia saw Julie scolding me relentlessly. At that time, I couldn’t protect myself at all and could only accept everything she said.Remembering it still felt painful and humiliating. I had done nothing wrong, yet I allowed myself to be blamed by others. But I could blame my past self—loving a man too much really could make a woman foolish.“She already told you to get out of here!”She defended me. It was incredibly surprising.“…Mrs. Monclaire, I didn’t expect to see you here,” Nia said as she tried to stand up. “Ma’am, it’s because this woman trapped Sebas—”“Enough!”Nia’s eyes trembled, perhaps filled with disbelief,

Chapter 262

SebastianRestlessness immediately consumed me when I received the report that my mother had left the house. Before the news even spread, Grandpa immediately ordered people to look for her.It didn’t take long to find her, but it really made me angry and anxious because she was meeting with Cassandra and Miles.It’s something that had been repeatedly warned against, and she still did it. It means she wants me to act even more cruelly.I got my car and drove off at top speed. I was afraid that if I didn’t arrive on time and my mother had caused a huge mess, then aaaa… it would be the same as being cruel to Cassandra again.When I arrived there, I clenched my fists tightly, thinking I would immediately see her doing something cruel to Cassandra and Miles, and then my anger would explode at her. But it seemed that the atmosphere was a little different.Even though I heard that Miles was being gentle with my mother, calling her “grandma”…Fuck, I had so many mixed thoughts. Hopes that fel

Chapter 263

CassandraThe days passed very quickly, until at last I welcomed Genna’s arrival. To me, the vacation she took felt very short; she didn’t even spend New Year’s Eve with her family.Not wanting to be cruel, I felt guilty.“Genna, I’m truly fine here. You can go back and spend New Year’s Eve with your family.”She looked at me and smiled. “It’s already too late, Miss. Tonight is New Year’s Eve. Besides, my family members each have their own events.” Her eyes shifted briefly. “It turns out my grandchild is already a teenager, she has plans with her friends and her partner. There are office events and so on.”Genna is a kind person. She spoke to ease the guilt I felt, even though I knew she had several grandchildren who were still young.I wanted to help carry her things, but she stopped me. Even though she was already old, she moved briskly. Then, with several boxes already on the table, she looked at me.“I brought lots of gifts for you, Miss, and for Miles.”Now the atmosphere truly f

POV 3“Uh?”Sebastian sat up, confused, looking around for a few seconds, and for the first time, he realized he had slept next to Miles.He had often imagined the moment he would sleep beside his son, and now it had truly happened. Still in disbelief, Sebastian slowly touched Miles’s cheek.Soft and warm.He smiled.This was reality.Sebastian didn’t move from his spot for quite a while. He still remembered last night when they celebrated the New Year. He had woken Miles, and together they set off fireworks.When the event ended, Miles had asked Sebastian to stay with him until he fell asleep again. It was always a joy for him to be close to Miles.At that time, Sebastian already knew that after making sure Miles was asleep, he would have to leave. Cassandra surely wouldn’t give him permission.Sebastian had done so many things trying to make up for his terrible past, yet it was still not enough.He knew he had to truly try in order to break through.Letting him sleep next to Miles w

Chapter 265

CassandraThe year had changed, as had the months. Each passing moment brought a variety of feelings, but I can say that I was handling them better.Sometimes I would meet Julie. She greeted me and behaved in a way very different from how she had treated me before. But I still remained cautious.Sometimes, after seeing Julie, I would encounter Alex. Honestly, the situation was a little funny, and a little annoying.Meeting people who were connected to me and had unfinished business with me. Our relationship could be described as very awkward, not exactly enjoyable.But I felt calmer while keeping an eye on what they might do next. So far, they had kept their word and hadn’t interfered.I heard some news that the Wilson family was facing a major problem. The news had spread, and the head of the Wilson family was trying to find a lawyer who could help fight the Monclaire family.With all the evidence that the Monclaire family possessed, lawyers were avoiding taking the case. They would

Chapter 266

Dylan“I already told you, if you’re meeting, don’t meet me.”This frustration made me run my fingers roughly through my hair.Seeing my father and mother looking shocked at the outburst I had just thrown, I looked away, forcing myself not to overreact.“You’d be better off traveling the world again and doing something than trying to drag me into this.”Just a few minutes of being here and I already felt terrible. Apparently, I still couldn’t forgive them, still harboring so much anger.Fuck. I thought I was doing okay. My feelings for Cassandra weren’t what they used to be, though it still hurt.But I could handle my life just fine. I was even thinking maybe I’d start a new relationship soon.Yet my heart was still full of doubt, even if I acted a little like an asshole.“Dylan, at least we can have dinner together,” my mother pleaded.“Mom, didn’t you hear what I said?” I clenched my fists. “I don’t want to hate you this deeply, so please, just go.”I saw the sadness in her eyes, bu

Chapter 267

Cassandra“I don’t want to use it anymore, Mom.”Miles smiled in front of the mirror, looking at his brown hair, which had grown thicker.I felt relieved seeing him healthier now, able to do whatever he wanted. Miles soon invited Nakka out to the yard, where they jogged lightly together.Laughter was always comforting, even though I continued to keep an eye on him, aware that his condition could suddenly worsen.In truth, we rarely went to the hospital anymore aside from routine checkups, which was a good sign.Winter was almost over, and many rumors were circulating among business circles about my relationship with Sebastian. They said I was the woman who had taken Isabella’s place, someone who used her child to her advantage.Hearing that, I tried to ignore it. After all, they said it behind my back. They didn’t know the real story.Anyone who stood at the top was bound to attract attention. Stories like that sold well.A few minutes later, Sebastian arrived at my house. He always l

Chapter 268

CassandraThe festival was truly delightful. We walked around afterward, buying a few trinkets that were only available at the festival.“Mom, this is for you.”Miles put a light blue bracelet on my wrist.After he finished with me, he put one on Sebastian as well, and Sebastian obediently let him. I couldn’t tear my eyes away from that sight, because I knew that man truly disliked wearing any kind of jewelry.I remembered that he had never even worn our wedding ring. And at that moment, I was shocked to see that very wedding ring—the one he had never worn, now encircling his ring finger.The feeling of being toyed with struck me like a shockwave, making me immediately look away. I clicked my tongue, quietly clenching my hand.My heart was pounding—please, stop!I really didn’t want to misunderstand things on my own. It was clear that I hated him, hated his careless behavior.But perhaps my wounded heart was reaching for an unexpected happiness as well, born from a long-held hope.He

Chapter 269

CassandraI quickly pulled my hand back, staring at him sharply.The man smiled, completely underestimating the situation, and I felt like I could read the filth in his mind.They were being harassed and humiliated, and anger made me clench my fists tightly.At first, I didn’t want to draw any attention, but his actions had gone too far.“Your actions could lead to a lawsuit. You really enjoy playing with the law, don’t you?” I sneered, sharp and full of disgust.I had heard the rotten rumors about him, how often he was surrounded by women.The scoundrel touched his chin. “What did I do? I just wanted to talk.”He acted as if what he did was completely innocent. I was certain this was how he often manipulated others.I remained calm, showing that he should know something about me.“I am a lawyer. I know that what you just did is a punishable act.”He exhaled. His eyes scanned me, and that uncomfortable feeling was spreading through my entire body.I stayed alert.“Miss, come on, this

Chapter 270

SebastianI truly felt like a failure for not being able to stop the rumors about us from spreading.I was afraid she would be angry with me, but when I saw her reaction—how calm she was, I felt a slight sense of relief. Still, I didn’t want any false rumors to make her life even harder.After meeting with someone, I went home and witnessed something that made me extremely angry.That insolent bastard had the audacity to touch Cassandra, trying to humiliate her by implying that she sold herself to men, lumping her together with cheap women who sought to gain something from me.He didn’t know that despite everything advantageous I had offered Cassandra, she still rejected me in her life.My anger gathered in my fists, and I was unable to hold back the explosion of emotion, so I punched him repeatedly. At that moment, what I wanted was his death.I truly could have done it.The only thing that stopped me was Cassandra. Her small body was trembling, and I was afraid that what I was doing
