Came Back as an Heiress After My Ex-Fiancé Made Me Blind novel Chapter 56

Dempsey vividly recalled the moment he woke up in the hospital. Amelia claimed she had saved him and accused Victoria of running away alone.

Back then, he harbored resentment towards Victoria, and Amelia's words fueled his hatred. For an entire month, he shut Victoria out, refusing to even lay eyes on her.

Thinking about it now, during that month, Victoria wanted to explain something to him. Was she trying to tell him the truth?

But because he believed Amelia's one-sided story, he refused to meet Victoria. He even claimed he felt nauseous just looking at her face.

How helpless and despairing must Victoria have felt during that time?

She risked everything to save him and endured immense suffering to rescue him, only to be treated unfairly afterward. It was all because Amelia lied to him!

Amelia not only claimed Victoria's credit, portraying herself as the virtuous sister but also went on to slander Victoria!

"Amelia, how heartless can you be! Worse than a beast!"

Dempsey, furious, glared at her with a face ashen with rage.

"Dempsey, I didn't mean to lie. I was just too scared..."

Amelia burst into tears and reached out to grab Dempsey's sleeve.

"I know I was wrong; I realize my actions were unjust. I was just scared you'd be disappointed in me. I was terrified of losing you, my brother..." she pleaded.

In the past, He would have succumbed to her pitiful words and already forgiven her after hearing her words.

But now...

"Amelia!" Dempsey interrupted her angrily, "Stop your excuses! Do you have any regard for Victoria?"

Dempsey struck her again.

A resounding slap echoed through the air.

Amelia's other cheek now bore a red swollen mark, and her eyes were swollen from crying.

Witnessing this, onlookers are stunned and hesitant to intervene.

Witnessing this, the onlookers, initially brought by Amelia, were paralyzed with shock. Her actions shattered their preconceived notions, leaving them dumbfounded.

The people's murmurs continued, unabated by the fear of being overheard by Amelia.

"How long was Dempsey kept in the dark?"

"I thought Victoria selfishly fled back then, never realizing it was Amelia who truly ran away!"

"Her ability to distort the truth is unbelievable! How can she be unashamed to portray yourself as a good person and slander Victoria like that!"

"Poor Victoria! What did she do wrong? Saving someone only to be unjustly accused!"

"Doesn't anyone in the Montgomery family believe her? Regardless, she's the true daughter of the Montgomery family, and Dempsey's biological sister, right?"

"I suddenly understand why Victoria cut ties with the Montgomery family..."

Hearing these discussions, Dempsey found himself unable to dispute their claims. They were right. He was such an idiot back then for listening to Amelia's one-sided narrative.

Obviously... Victoria was his biological sister!

He was going to find her.

He was going to find Victoria!

He was going to save his sister!

Dempsey immediately looked towards the lake not far away and saw Victoria and Carl standing up to leave coldly.

A pang pierced Dempsey's heart. Without second thoughts, he sprinted after them.
