Love You Like I Used To Forget It (Millie Bridge) novel Chapter 469

Even in his shattered state, Irvin still immediately realized something was amiss. However, he didn’t move. Instead, he remained there, acting as though he was dying from agony.

If the blinking light was from a pinhole camera, it meant someone was observing his every move. So, if he reacted to it, he would tip them off that they had been discovered. Thus, he remained slumped on the floor for some time before getting up and heading into the bathroom.

After confirming there weren’t any pinhole cameras in the bathroom, Irvin took out the tablet he had picked up on the way in and began operating it. Not long after, he discovered a group of unfamiliar wireless networks.

Irvin’s eyes narrowed at this, and his expression turned dangerous

In Redwood City, Julianne soon found out that I was going to marry William. This made her so furious that she destroyed everything in her room.

She knew nothing could possibly happen between her and William. No matter what she did, she’d never have a chance with him in this lifetime. Even so, she absolutely couldn’t accept him being with me.

William was the only man in Julianne’s life she had truly fallen for, without any care whatsoever if she gained anything from doing so. If he liked her back, she really would even give him her life.

That was how much she liked William and how badly she wanted him. Yet, she could never have him. So, she questioned why I should. Why was I the one who got him? And on what grounds?

The unfairness and burning jealousy Julianne felt drove her madder the more she thought about it. And the more she dwelt on it, the more she felt she couldn’t let me and William be together–even if things ended in mutual destruction.

Julianne was so mad that she wanted to rush out and act on her impulse. But just then, Henry knocked on her door and walked in.

The moment Julianne saw him, she swiftly threw herself into his arms. In an aggrieved tone, she cried, “You have to help me, Dad. You just have to!”

Henry had always adored Julianne and couldn’t stand to see her cry. He immediately hugged and comforted her. “What’s the matter, Lianne? Don’t cry. Tell me what’s wrong…”

Julianne’s immediate thought was to ask him to come up with a way to end my life. But just as the words reached the tip of her tongue, another thought suddenly came to her mind.

Regardless of how much Henry adored her, he was still my father. So, he probably wouldn’t agree to a request like this.

Thus, Julianne changed tactics. She asked him for a drug. “Dad, do you have something that will completely paralyze someone without them noticing?”

Julianne had originally wanted me dead, but she had changed her mind. She wanted me alive, but in the most tragic state possible. She wanted me to be trapped in a living hell.

Henry frowned. “What do you want with a drug like that?”

As a poison–making expert, he had all sorts of drugs that could land someone in court.

Julianne answered, “A friend of mine is being abused by her husband. She can’t take it anymore, but she also can’t divorce him. She’s afraid that he’ll beat her within an inch of her life. So, she wants…”

She had always been good at spinning lies on the spot. However, while Henry did trust and dote on Julianne, he wasn’t an idiot.

He knew exactly what kind of person Julianne was, so he didn’t believe she was asking for a drug like this for some abused friend. Plus, Henry had already heard the news that I was marrying William.
