Chapter 76
Yana instantly turned ashen.
She couldn’t believe that Timothy really wanted to break off their engagement.
After all, even though they had had such a big fight yesterday, Timothy had not said that he would break off the engagement.
She knew that he was faithful.
Because of what had happened back then, she thought he would never be able to abandon
her.
“Stop joking around, Timothy,” she hurriedly said. “Just tell me if you encounter any difficulties at work. I will absolutely…”
“Yana…” he interrupted her. He couldn’t stand her hypocrisy any longer.
“Timothy,” she looked at him in a panic as she said, “what did Susan tell you today? Did she speak ill of me? Don’t believe her! I know I have some shortcomings, but l–am
wholeheartedly devoted to you. Have you forgotten? When you were in a desperate plight, I sold all my jewelry and gave you all my savings to help you pull through.”
In the past, no matter how great the dispute between them was, Timothy would immediately go easy on Yana and compromise once she mentioned what she had done
for him all those years ago.
But that was in the past.
This time, when Yana mentioned it again, Timothy only felt a wave of disgust.
Even though he hadn’t eaten much for breakfast, he had an urge to throw up now.
He didn’t want to beat around the bush with her anymore. He asked slowly, “Yana, do your think a lie will become the truth after telling it a thousand times?”
He seemed to be implying something. Yana felt her heart skip a beat and could only force a smile. “I… I don’t understand what you mean.”

Timothy sneered and said, “You said you sold your jewelry in exchange for money. Tell me, what jewelry have you sold? How about I go buy all the pieces of jewelry you’ve sold and return them to you?”
Yana was slightly flustered. “Timothy, I appreciate your kindness. But those are all dated jewelry and have no value anymore.”
Timothy said lightly, “It’s not a big deal. I just want to buy them for you. You only need to tell me where you sold your jewelry.”
Yana racked her brains but could only say, “I… I sold them randomly at that time. I truly
don’t remember.”
“You don’t remember?” Timothy said with a sarcastic smile, “You should remember what channels you sold them through, right? Did you sell them online, or to some jewelry store? Don’t worry, as long as you tell me, I can trace them and get them back for you.”
Yana was stunned and could hardly maintain the fake smile on her face. “I… I can’t
remember.”
“Fine.” Timothy raised his eyebrows. “How about this? Tell me, why did you suddenly want
to sponsor me at that time?”
Yana flushed red and said softly, “I… I saw a photo of you from Susan and fell in love with you at first sight. I heard from Susan that you were in trouble at that time, so I tried my
best to help you.”
Timothy said with an unfathomable expression on his face, “I didn’t know that I was so charming that you’d be willing to give me such a large sum of money after only a glance at
a photo.”
Yana had originally felt guilty, so the more she listened, the more flustered she became.
She hurriedly grabbed him by the hand and said, “Timothy, what are you talking about? You don’t look well. Why don’t you take a rest?”
He shook her hand off expressionlessly and said slowly, “Yana, I still have one last question.”

She was extremely panicked in her heart, but she still pretended to be composed. “Go
ahead.”
Timothy asked, “Do you still remember which account you transferred the money to?”
Yana’s mind went blank!
She had taken all the credit for helping Timothy after reading Susan’s chat history.
However, how could she know which account the money had been transferred to?
After a long hesitation, she pulled out a smile and replied, “I… I don’t remember.”

After saying that, she anxiously added, “You know, this all happened several years ago. I don’t have a good memory, so…”
“Enough, Yana,” Timothy calmly interrupted her with a wry smile.
He thought, “Look at what a lame lie it is.
“I could have easily found out the truth after some probing.
“Yana is far different from that girl.
“But I was so eager to find that girl that I immediately fell for Yana’s tricks and lost my bearings.
“How could I… be so stupid?”
He looked at her and said, “I’ll allow the two of us the last bit of dignity. I’ll tell your parents that I’ve decided to cancel the engagement because of our personality clashes.”
Hearing Timothy mention the cancellation of their engagement again, Yaną broke down. “Timothy Leen, you can’t do this to me! I just don’t have a good memory. Are you going to abandon me because of this? How ungrateful you are!”
Timothy was weary of it by now. “You should know very well what the truth is, Yana.”
“I don’t know!” she said through gritted teeth.
Timothy had no choice but to put it bluntly. “It was Susan who sponsored me at that time,

wasn’t it? The person who chatted with me online was also Susan, right? I don’t know how you managed to steal her account, but what’s fake can never be real.”
All color drained from Yana’s face.
