Chapter 1239 She Must Pay the Price
…
“It’s better than the dilemma I’m in now, right? I can’t bear to see you wronged, and my heart breaks even more seeing Jewel being blamed. I’m caught between you two, and I’d rather die.”
Alex continued, “You didn’t say a word but put all the blame on Jean. You made her look like she cheated on me, and on top of that, you even claim that she is a b*tch who took 150 thousand from you before running off. Every time I think of that night, my heart hurts. It’s like a knife stabbing into it. How could you watch me struggle in pain and resent Jean with all my might?”
“But today, I found out that all of this is a scheme meticulously planned by you. Let’s put aside that Jean isn’t Winnie’s daughter at all, but even if she is, what did she do wrong? She just couldn’t stand your son’s stalking, so she accepted my feelings. You, on the other hand, are afraid of embarrassment and secretly did so many things to hurt her. She’s just an innocent victim. She didn’t deserve to endure all of this!”
Looking at Alex in pain, Stefanie felt upset and grunted, “Because she is Winnie’s daughter! Even if she wasn’t, she was her niece! I hate Winnie, and I will never be able to forgive her in this life. I’ve held back for more than 20 years without an avenue to vent my frustrations. Who told her to fall for you and chase after you? Alex, I did try to persuade myself to let it go; that Jean and Winnie are different people. I realized stopping Jean from approaching you was torture for you, so I decided that I wouldn’t stop her anymore. As for my actions, let’s treat it as a price she has to pay for liking you.”
Alex lowered his eyes, and one drop of tear fell unexpectedly. He felt as if his heart was being pierced by thousands of needles.
He couldn’t see a drop of blood, but it hurt like hell.
“She’s the one who fell for me and chased after me? Is this the price she should pay for liking me?”
