“If you had fallen in love with someone else in Meridan and even gave birth to a child without telling me,


    I wouldn’t have med you,” Justin’s eyes gradually reddened with resentment, and his fingers curled


    into a tight fist. “But you lied to me. You imed to have depression. You used your illness as a cover


    and manipted my emotions. You even attempted to force me into a marriage with you!”


    “No… it’s not like that…” Rosalind’s face turned pale, unable to speak coherently.


    Only then did she realize how wrong she had been. When she had lied to him about having


    depression, she had only thought of it as a means to hold onto Justin’s heart. However, she had


    forgotten that both Justin and his mother were painful victims of depression themselves. He feared she


    would follow in his mother’s footsteps, so he kept amodating andpromising. It was also why


    he had callously abandoned Be, who loved him deeply.


    Yet, she had not considered that once this colossal lie was exposed, she would not just have toyed with


    Justin’s emotions but also humiliated his mother!


    How could it even be possible to forgive her now? Impossible!


    “My mother’s condition and my past have be tools for you to manipte me.”


    Regret and anger intertwined in Justin’s chest, forcing a bitter, self-deprecatingugh out of him. “Rose,


    you’ve made me feel like a fool.”


    “Justin, it’s not like that. It’s not…” Rose stuttered.


    Ryan shook his head, angrily questioning, “Rosalind, you grew up with Justin. You should know better


    than anyone how much pain he went through.”


    “If you had even a sliver of a conscience, you wouldn’t have tortured and deceived Justin. How can you


    use the memories of your youth together as moral ckmail? I doubt you ever truly loved Justin. How


    could you do that to someone you imed to love? I’d rather be a bachelor for the rest of my life than


    be in a rtionship. It’s too damn disgusting.”


    “Ryan, stop talking.” Justin didn’t want to recall anything rted to Rosalind’s past, let alone be


    entangled with her again. “Ian, I never want to see her again. Get her out of my sight immediately.”


    “Yes, Mr. Salvador!” Ian looked at Rosalind as if she were a pile of garbage as he forcefully dragged


    her out.


    “Justin! Who do you think you are? How can you treat me like this?!” Rosalind finally tore off her mask


    of pity and shrieked hysterically, “All these excuses you’ve made to abandon me are so that you can


    find a new love! You’ve fallen for Be, and you don’t want me anymore! What’s so great about that


    bitch?! Did she save your life? From the very beginning, she approached you with a fake identity. She


    had sinister motives! Isn’t she deceiving you too?!”


    “Shut up! You have no right topare yourself to her!” Justin’s bloodshot eyes widened fiercely, and


    he roared at Rosalind like never before. “If you say one more insult about Be, I’ll make sure the Gold


    family has no ce to stand in this country! Get out right now!”


    Justin’s furious countenance and ruthless words were like a massive boulder, smashing into Rosalind


    and leaving her courage shattered. If it were not for Ian dragging her away, she


    would have copsed onto the ground long ago.


    She never expected that Be would have such a ce in Justin’s heart. She never imagined that


    using Be as a cover would backfire.


    Rosalind was dragged away, and the corridor returned to calm.


    “Justin, no matter what, I must congratte you, brother.”


    Ryan felt relieved to see Justin turn Rosalind away. Hisrge hand pressed heavily on Justin’s


    shoulder. “No matter how you were deceived before and for how long, as long as you can turn away,


    it’s never toote.”


    “Not toote, huh…”


    Justin gave a bitter smile. His shoulders trembled in dejection. Then why did he feel like everything was


    already toote?Content (C) N?v/elDra/ma.Org.
