He Lost Me to His Best Friend novel Chapter 1074

Thinking about his failed marriage, Yardley's heart bled. Now that his eyes were finally open, looking back at all the years Scarlett had endured in silence only made the agony sharper.

She was truly a good woman. Out of love, she had stayed by his side year after year, suffering his family's disrespect and cold shoulders, until she gave birth and finally saw the reality of it all, leading to her explosive departure. He had single-handedly ruined her and destroyed the perfect home they could have had.

Corinne was left stunned by Yardley's yelling, tears streaming down her face. Stomping her foot in frustration, she pointed a trembling finger at Franklin's body. "Yardley, blaming everything on me is going way too far! Why don't you blame your father for having another family on the side?! Why don't you blame him for not caring about me?! Why don't you—"

"Dad is dead!" Yardley roared, cutting her off. "What more do you want?! What is the point of blaming him now? Does it change anything?!"

He stared at Corinne, his gaze piercing right through her, filled with deep, heavy regret. "Even now, you don't feel a shred of remorse, a sliver of guilt, or even the slightest bit of shame? Would you dare confess everything you've done right here in front of Dad's deathbed? Do you have the guts to tell my three sisters the truth about Sylvia's parentage? You blame Dad for having a family on the side, but what about you? Have you set any kind of decent example for us?"

The sudden mention of this caused Corinne's face to pale drastically. She desperately tried to stammer out a defense, but Clarissa let out a cold, mocking laugh.
