The Genius Ex-Wife’s Revenge Portfolio novel Chapter 529

“Mr. Harmon, you’re wrong,” Lilly said, her voice trembling with anger. “So completely wrong. Ella was the girl all along. How could you ever mistake Jessa for her?”

Fiona stepped in, her eyes bright with emotion. “You missed your chance with Ella. And because of Jessa, you hurt her more than you’ll ever know. But you never even realized it.”

It was Ella, not Jessa. It’s always Ella.

David’s hands curled into fists. How could this be happening? The girl from all those years ago was Ella. He had spent so long searching for the wrong person. All these years, chasing a memory, and he’d been wrong from the very start.

Ella looked at him, her voice soft but steady. “David, it was me.”

He froze, every muscle in his body tense. Ella’s eyes shimmered with tears as she spoke. “I was the one who saved you in that cave. It was me, David. Where did you go? Do you have any idea how long I waited for you?”

“You promised you’d take me away. You said you’d give me a home, that you’d never leave me behind. I never forgot your promises.”

David’s mind spun with memories. Suddenly Ella’s face matched the girl from the cave, the girl he’d never really let go of. Every word, every promise, it all came back.

Ella blinked back tears, her voice trembling. “I waited for you for so long. You never came, so I went to find you.”

“I followed your trail, city after city, for years. I saw your picture in a window at Harvard. That’s when I finally learned your name… David. I found out everything I could about you.”
