Chapter 1150
“Yeah, those guys were sent by Tyler. He just wanted to scare you, but Hubert caught wind of it. He immediately suggested that I pay them to really rape you. I was so caught up in the moment, thinking that if Tyler fell, I wouldn’t have to put up with his crap anymore, so I made a decision.”
Karan finished, her hand gently stroking Liana’s face.
“I’m sorry, Liana. I was out of my mind, blinded by Tyler’s lies I would never have hurt you. Seeing what happened to you, I was racked with guilt
Liana stayed still, letting the ice–cold hand trace her face. Her blood ran cold, like falling into a frigid lake, unable to break free, imprisoned by the chill
She knew Karan was mixing truth and lies. The only believable part was that Tyler didn’t really want those guys to hurt her, just to scare her. Was that the reason Tyler never explained himself?
Suppressing her anger, Liana slowly raised her eyes to meet Karan’s non–violent gaze and quietly asked her.
“Did he not explain himself when you were punishing him?”
While in the hospital, Liana heard that, apart from the few who had fallen into the water on the spot, the rest who were sent to jail didn’t disclose who was behind it all, saving Tyler the trouble.
Only after Liana woke up and was questioned by Karan did she accuse Tyler. Tyler had stood by her hospital bed, wanting to explain something, but after a few slaps from Karan, he chose to remain silent.
Liana knew that after Tyler was taken away by the Howell family, he was severely punished. Though she hadn’t seen it herself, she saw a badly wounded Tyler outside her hospital room. He wanted to come in, but Karan wouldn’t let him near.
Until Liana recovered and became pregnant, Tyler never saw her alone. He didn’t explain anything when she had the abortion. If he was just trying to scare her, why didn’t he explain?
Karan wasn’t keen on telling Liana, but seeing as Liana didn’t blame her, she spilled the beans.
“When he was punished, he explained that he just wanted to scare you, but didn’t expect those guys to actually do what they did. I slapped him then, accusing him of making excuses I asked him, even if he was telling the truth about his original intentions, wasn’t this whole ordeal his fault? If he hadn’t pulled this stunt, would you have been hurt? So, regardless of whether it was a scare tactic or not, the harm you suffered was because of him. He shouldn’t be making excuses for his actions. After I finished, he was silent guess he realized that this was indeed caused by him, and there wasn’t anything left to explain”
So, Tyler also thought this was his doing. Whether he explained it or not, the damage was done. In Tyler’s mind, he probably always thought it was his fault, so he never mentioned this past incident to her.
Even during their later encounters, his attitude towards her stayed the same, treating their relationship as irreparable due to this incident, and obstinately sticking to her side
Liana wanted revenge, so she used his obsession, enticing him, making him fall for her, then brutally hurting him. She thought she’d’succeeded in her revenge, but she realized that the person she should be getting back at was sitting across from her, looking at her with pity in her eyes – Karan.
–
This person even claimed that Hubert instigated her. How could Liana believe her? Hubert wasn’t even in the country at the time, how could he know about Tyler’s plan to
scare her?
And after she got off the boat. Tyler handed her over to those guys to scare her. He then got into his car. Even if Hubert knew about Tyler’s plan in advance and informed Karan, there should have been some time for her to intervene and bribe, but there wasn’t. It seemed like Karan was lying to her.

The readers' comments on the novel: A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)
Loved the story, many times caught in so much actually crying with the situation. Wish had more chapters to a better ending....
It's weird that the story went from narrative to slang use. Good story so far though...
