The Love I Begged For Was Never Real novel Chapter 439

If she hadn't assumed Giselle was behind it.

If she had stayed calm and let Gideon uncover the truth.

Then, she wouldn't have sent that threatening text.

Giselle wouldn't have gone to the rooftop.

The killer wouldn't have pushed the wrong person.

Giselle wouldn't have died, Xavier Holdings wouldn't have gone bankrupt, and her parents wouldn't have met such horrific ends in this hospital.

She was the source of it all. She was the one who had pushed the first domino.

Nora's body slowly slid down, her knees hitting the freezing floor hard.

Janie looked at Nora kneeling at her feet and smugly adjusted her collar.

"Enjoy whatever days you have left."

Janie sneered, tossing out her final, venomous taunt with the deep satisfaction of vengeance fulfilled.

She turned and strutted her hips as she walked toward the corridor exit.

The crisp clack of her heels echoed, fading away until it vanished around the corner.

Nora knelt before the two gurneys draped in white.

The crushing weight of regret and the suffocating guilt slammed into her chest like a physical hammer.

She parted her cracked lips, gasping frantically, but not a sliver of oxygen seemed to reach her lungs.

Deep within her abdomen, an agonizingly sharp cramp suddenly erupted.

The pain hit without warning and was unspeakably violent, as if a thousand steel blades were simultaneously stabbing and twisting into her womb.

The relentless torture of the past few days, the agony of her broken bones, the severe malnutrition, and now the devastating double blow of her parents' deaths and the horrific truth—it all completely destroyed the fragile little life growing inside her.
