When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 572

To me, giving birth to a child and not raising her properly was already a sin. Now that the child had grown up and started a new life with a partner and a new family, why would the biological mother still want to hurt her?

Isabelle took a deep breath and smiled wryly, “I know we did her wrong in so many ways, and I don’t blame her for hating us, but she’s still her biological mother.”

I could not believe what I heard. I used to think women like Cameron, Rebecca, and Kristina, were evil, but Isabelle’s family sent chills down my spine.

I looked at her and smiled, “There are people whom I find pathetic and despicable. Do you know who they are?”

She looked at me but kept mum.

I started driving when the traffic light turned green. I looked at the road and said, “Rachel has been very kind to your family. I would have adopted a far crueller approach if I were in her shoes.”

Isabelle was taken aback as she did not expect I would say something like that.

I continued, “There are people who are born poor, but it has nothing to do with money. They’re just poor in spirit and don’t know what it means to be humans.

“Like you and your mom, who had committed the worst crime ever by ending her children’s lives. Yet, she never thought what she did was wrong.

“Rachel should count herself lucky to have escaped from such a terrible family and found herself parents who cherished her and took good care of her.”

“And what did you all do? You came into her life and destroyed her happiness. Her father was the man who rescued her from hell, yet your mother killed him,” I said, “And your mother seems to be very proud of what she has done. She thinks she’s doing this out of love for his son.

“It was as if she had forgotten Rachel, too, was her child.”

Isabelle lowered her head and cried. She said in between sobs, “We had no choice. My brother would die if she refused to donate her bone marrow. We’re a family. It’s her duty to rescue her brother!”

Her remark bemused me, and I instantly let out a cold snort. “Since when it was Rachel’s duty to rescue your brother? Has your mother even done her part in raising her?

“Have you all tried finding her in the past? No. You only appeared and blackmailed her emotionally just because you needed her help. If this is not selfish, I don’t know what else is.”
