Love You Like I Used To Forget It (Millie Bridge) novel Chapter 538

As I watched the police about to take William away, Grace looked at me. She was gloating, and her gaze was full of smug superiority.

Although her life now wasn't quite as glamorous as she had once dreamed, I was still clearly worse off.

Irvin and William both loved me dearly. Now, the former had become an internationally wanted criminal, while the latter was about to be taken to prison.

Life really was a wheel that never stopped turning. No one got to be lucky and live blissfully forever.

I was in no mood to deal with Timothy and Grace. My entire focus was on worrying about William.

When we rescued Irvin, we had already anticipated that our actions would be counted as harboring a fugitive. Thus, we had already prepared countermeasures.

That being said, now that that moment had actually arrived, I still couldn't help being anxious and worried for William. I was afraid something might go wrong with our plan and that he would be dragged down by it.

Sensing my anxiety, William gave me a reassuring smile and patted my hand gently. He shot me a look that said not to worry and to just stick to the plan. Then, he left with the officers.

I didn't leave with him because I had to stay. I had to take his place, attend the conference, and connect with the potential partner we'd been hoping to meet.

Timothy had expected me to panic and follow William to the police station. Instead, I had stayed behind and calmly carried on with the conference.

He clicked his tongue when he saw this. "It looks like the one you truly love is still my little brother, Irvin."

I glanced at him but didn't say anything in response.

Perhaps aware of William's and my motive for attending this conference, Timothy wasn't aggravated by my silence. He simply smiled and said, "Don't waste your efforts. It'll all be useless no matter how hard you try. Irvin will still be the head of that criminal organization."
