My Ex-husband Begs Me Back (Ayan and Camille) novel Chapter 968

Chapter 968: Consequences

She kept pleading with Ayan to spare her, and she adamantly denied any involvement in informing Camille about his secret. She not only denied it but also pretended not to understand.

Ayan stood up, his gaze icy as he fixed it on her. "Whether you genuinely don't know or pretend not to understand, in my eyes, you're responsible for this. Therefore, you will face the consequences."

Cora started to panic, retreating until her back was against the door. She looked at Ayan, shaking her head desperately. "Ayan, please, spare me this time, okay? I'm begging you, spare me!"

Ayan had no sympathy for her. He coldly stated, "I've given you countless chances from the beginning. Do you think your mental state was caused by me or instigated by my family? But you took the Simpson family's money. You could have refused, and you could have chosen to confess everything to me. But you didn't make that choice. Since you chose money over leaving me, you should bear the consequences. Or, you can use my guilt towards you to get a sum of money and secure a lifetime of comfort, but you shouldn't have repeatedly crossed my boundaries and harmed the most important woman in my life."

Ayan was genuinely angry now. The thought of Camille's cold gaze because of this situation left him feeling helpless. He didn't know what to do.

He had plenty of ways to resolve other matters, but when it came to Camille, he felt utterly powerless.

He inhaled silently, staring at Cora with a chilling voice, "If you don't want to go to a mental hospital, then go to jail. I have all the evidence of your kidnapping Timmy and harming my grandfather. With my influence, I can ensure you spend a lifetime behind bars."

Cora, losing control, seemed like a madwoman. After her outburst, her boldness grew, and she took a few steps forward. She looked at Ayan and questioned him, "Are you trying to force me to death? Why won't you give me a way out? Why do you choose Camille over me? We were a couple in the beginning, but it was the Simpson family that separated us. They intentionally drove me away. Why won't you give me a chance? Just say yes, and we can start over. None of this would have happened. Don't you feel guilty towards me? It's the Simpson family's fault in the first place. If it weren't for your family, if it weren't for your grandfather and your parents, we would be together, not you and Camille. Camille stole you, and she stole everything that rightfully belonged to me!"

Facing Cora's words, Ayan remained unmoved, but he couldn't shake off the growing unease. She had completely lost her sense of reason and perspective, consumed by obsession. Keeping her around meant the risk of her resurfacing and causing trouble all over again. In that case, it might be better for him to be a real bad man to her.

Ayan didn't waste any more words on her; he simply said, "You're truly insane."

Because of their mismatched status and some of her actions that had upset the Simpson family, she hadn't passed the Simpson family's test. If her feelings for him were genuinely pure, even if the Simpson family tested her, she wouldn't have been fooled. So, everything that had happened was now her own responsibility.

Ayan glanced at Cora coldly and then walked directly towards her. Cora immediately tried to avoid him, thinking Ayan was going to harm her physically. However, Ayan had no intention of laying a hand on a woman.

Ayan opened the door and walked out, with Cora following him. But she was intercepted by the bodyguards stationed outside.

Cora shouted frantically, "Come back! What do you mean by this, Ayan? I've ended up like this because of you, and you can't just blame me for everything. In the end, it's your responsibility too. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be in this situation."

Ayan didn't pause, continuing down the hallway and eventually descending the stairs.

Kian followed him and stopped by Cora's side, his gaze cold as he looked at her. He said, "Miss Hayes, if I were you, I wouldn't keep pestering someone I've lost. You married Austin, and despite the different circumstances, both of you dug your own graves. Now, everything that has happened is a result of your own choices, not someone else's. Everyone has to pay the price for their actions, including minors, let alone you, an adult!"
