Emily laughed and said, “So what if I deceived you? So what if I hurt her? Isn’t this all with your permission? You’ve been enabling this behavior all along. Every time I made unreasonable demands, you agreed to them. The one hurting Isabella isn’t me–it’s you! Stop putting on this act of deep affection. My behavior has all been indulged by you!”
Emily was absolutely right. Greg was the one who hurt me the
most.
Every time Emily and I had conflicts, Greg chose to let me suffer, asking me to be more understanding of her. At first, he would try to persuade me gently, but later he grew impatient and scolded me, even thinking that since he obeyed Emily’s every word, I should do the same.
But this wasn’t right. Our love had long since soured. Greg humiliating me like this was nothing but a desecration of love itself.
Greg threw himself at my feet, pleading with me: “Isabella, I’m sorry! Let’s make up!”
I asked, “Then what about your Emily?”
He said, “I’ll give her some money and make her leave. After all, she was my brother’s beloved woman.”
Even now, he still couldn’t make up his mind. I couldn’t help but sneer coldly and ignored him.

divorce her, but she refused. They were fighting over the steering wheel while driving, which caused the accident. She approached you just for your money. You’re such a fool!”
Greg said in despair, “Impossible! Impossible!”
Alexander directly showed him the evidence: “These are all proof and photos of Emily checking into hotels with other men.”
Emily trembled all over in fear, quickly grabbing Greg’s hand and saying, “It’s not like that. Greg, listen to me—he forced me!”
Of course Greg could tell the difference between voluntary and coerced. He kept slapping Emily across the face: “Slut! Slut!”
Emily’s nose started bleeding.
I didn’t want to watch this farce anymore. I pulled Alexander and said, “Let’s go!” There was no need for me to stay here and watch this.
Alexander carefully protected me as he led me away. Emily was beaten unconscious by Greg, and those men’s pleas for mercy were useless.
Alexander said he would get revenge for me, making those companies go bankrupt as soon as possible. The improper relationship between Greg and Emily would also be exposed.
Someone even exposed the fact that Greg and I had been married before, but Alexander had all those photos deleted. However, the hotel had already confirmed that Greg had held an Engagement party there. Yet he had an ambiguous relationship28

had even worn the same dress as me when she was with Greg.
Netizens were furious. Greg’s residence was splattered with all kinds of filth. Emily was cursed so badly she didn’t dare leave the house, and could only fight with Greg at home.
In a fit of rage, Greg stabbed her several times. Emily’s uterus was damaged, and she would never be able to have children again. Greg was arrested.
Alexander had people keep watch on Greg. Greg’s friends were also prosecuted, and with solid evidence and help from the Dixon family, they were all sentenced. After Greg went bankrupt, he went to prison.
After Emily was discharged from the hospital, no one gave her money, so she had no choice but to become a prostitute. Later, she was found dead under an overpass.
And I gave birth to twins–a boy and a girl. After the children were born, Alexander and I went on our honeymoon, and I finally found happiness.
When I saw Greg again, I was taking my two children to register for elementary school when I spotted him standing across the street. I felt disgusted. He didn’t come over to disturb us, just quietly left. The person I am now is beyond his reach.
Every choice in life comes with a price. Greg and I would never meet again.
I turned back to see Alexander leaning against the car, holding a Bouquet of sunflowers. Our love had always been there.
