Chapter 989 The Unwanted Family

Finished
Before, Jonathan had only heard that Stella was doing well in Falvaria, but he had never truly witnessed it.
Now, he was seeing it for himself.
The Dawson family was genuinely good to her.
Rebecca stood behind him: “You’ve regretted it for a long time, haven’t you?”
The regret referred to how Jonathan had treated Stella before because of Lilian.
Stella was his biological sister.
Yet, he had never been kind to her, all because of Lilian.
However, whether he wanted to admit it or not, the regret had started the moment he discovered Lilian’s true nature.
But as a man, he couldn’t bring himself to lower his head.
Hearing Rebecca mention “regret,” Jonathan felt a tightness in his chest.
“What difference does regret make? She and the Reed family have no connection anymore. She doesn’t acknowledge us.”
In fact, he wasn’t the only one regretting it; his mother in prison was too.
Upon learning that Stella was getting married, she desperately wanted to attend.
The entire Reed family regretted their actions.
Susan wanted to witness Stella’s wedding with her own eyes and see what her life in Falvaria was like.
But in the end…
Her own deeds made it impossible for her to witness it personally.
They were all unwilling to admit that Stella wanted nothing to do with them.
Yet, they had to admit that in Stella’s world, they truly meant nothing.
Rebecca attended Stella’s wedding today.

Chapter 989 The Unwanted Family
Jonathan had prepared a wedding gift for Stella and asked Rebecca to deliver it.
He simply didn’t have the face to show up at her wedding…
He knew Stella certainly wouldn’t want to see her brother.
Rebecca: “What you all have today, you absolutely deserve when it comes to Stella.
Jonathan: “I know.”
He absolutely deserved it.
After nearly a year, when talking about Stella again, Jonathan was no longer hysterical.
His voice held only endless guilt.

He was truly ashamed of the kind of brother he had been. He was the one who shared blood with Stella, yet he wasn’t half as good to her as the Dawson family was.
Rebecca turned to leave.
But Jonathan stopped her: “Are they okay?”
Rebecca: “…” The child…
At the mention of the child, Rebecca’s eyes instantly turned cold.
She hadn’t intended to speak to Jonathan at all today, but blood ties were truly strange.
Jonathan disliked Stella so much.
Yet, her precious child, seeing Stella’s wedding announcement on TV, kept clamoring to see his “Auntie.”
He really liked his Auntie Stella.
Rebecca: “You don’t deserve to ask about the child.”
If he hadn’t asked about the child, Rebecca might have remained civil, but the moment he did, her tone became icy.
The cruelty of Susan, her own grandmother, and Jonathan’s weakness back then had left her completely heartbroken.
Jonathan wasn’t the only one who came.

Chapter 989 The Unwanted Family
Finished
Patrick had also arrived, but both had come secretly, daring not to show up at Stella’s wedding.
They only stayed in the vicinity of Falvaria, sensing the grandeur and influence of the wedding,
From these small details, they understood Abraham’s love for Stella and the Dawson family’s high regard for her.
And it was this immense formality that made Patrick realize how ridiculous his past threats against Stella in Rivermount truly were.
The twenty thousand a year in pocket money was nothing to Stella.
Yet, they had actually used that to threaten her. Recalling it now was utterly laughable.
He glanced at Ethan, who stood by the floor–to–ceiling window, constantly watching the fireworks show in the sky.
Ethan: “It seems the Dawson family is genuinely good to her.”
