A Cue for Love novel Chapter 369

Chapter 369 Condemned

That was the crux of the matter.

 

 

Initially, Lia had no intention to divulge that secret, but given Natalie’s keen observation, she knew that it was something she couldn’t avoid.

 

“Yup.” Lia sighed. “I like Lionel… I really don’t care whether or not I will lose my foothold in the Johnson family, but I don’t want Lionel to get affected. He works extremely hard and is a proud man. I can’t let anyone destroy him…”

 

After Lia finished speaking, Yandel took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it.

 

 

 

He put the cigarette between his lips and drew a deep breath.

 

 

Even if they were not blood-related, as long as a man and a woman were accused of incest, there would be nothing they could do even if they loved each other deeply.

 

Natalie took a glance at Yandel and was aware that Lia’s situation reminded him of Amelia and himself.

 

 

 

He had raised Amelia himself and treated her better than anyone else. However, they were also accused of incest and were condemned by the rest of the world.

 

Lia felt like a burden was lifted off her shoulders after saying that.

 

 

 

“I… I’m not afraid that she’ll hurt me. I’m just scared that she’ll hurt Lionel.” Lia sobbed. “Actually, when I first regained consciousness, Lionel had told me that you were the one who saved my life. I wasn’t grateful to you then as I didn’t understand why you did that. I thought I was better off dead… However, I realized that if I had died and Yara threatens Lionel, I wouldn’t be able to help him. As such, I decided that it was better for me to be alive so that she can just threaten me and leave Lionel alone. I’m so sorry… I have been living in regret every day… I’ve been thinking a lot but I’m still unable to come up with a solution…”

 

Suddenly, Natalie could feel her heart aching for the young lady in front of her and held Lia’s hands tightly.

 

“There’s nothing wrong with liking someone,” Natalie said softly. “If anyone has to be blamed, it would be Yara.”

 

“Am I going to continue living like this for the rest of my life?”

 

“Nope, you won’t,” Natalie replied, her eyes gleaming brightly. “You were shouldering this heavy burden all by yourself previously. Naturally, you’ll be tired. Since you’re willing to trust me with your secret, we will carry this burden together from now on. I won’t give her another chance to hurt you… Just promise me that you won’t make any hasty decisions. I’ll tell you what to do instead. You just have to follow my instructions.”
