Love You Like I Used To? Forget It! Chapter 331
Back in Lestoria, after Irvin had all the trending searches related to me taken down, he grabbed a tablet playing Grace's clarification and apology video and went to find her.His gaze was cold as he said, "Grace, I should've told you before—our first condition for working together is that you stay away from my wife!"Hearing this, Grace's eyes instantly turned red. "Did I do anything to her? I'm just trying to clear her name!"Before Irvin could respond, she hurriedly added, "If you think this wasn't the right way to do it, you can tell me what to do. I'll do whatever you want to help clear her name!" She sounded so serious and sincere—like she was truly willing to do anything to salvage my reputation. Because she knew that in a situation like this, no matter how much she tried to explain, it wouldn't make a difference. Irvin stared at her silently. His gaze grew colder and more menacing by the second.…Grandma always loved seeing me win awards. She'd be over the moon e
Love You Like I Used To? Forget It! Chapter 332
After pulling myself together, I packed up and headed back to the Quill residence with Cordelia. I never came back often these past two years—only showing up during the holidays for a family dinner, and even then, I didn't stay long. Under Jeremy's pressure, Mom no longer acted like she wanted me dead the way she did right after Julianne left. But every time she saw me, she still looked at me like I was her worst enemy. Today was no different. When Mom saw me, her face lit up with a gloating smile. "Karma finally caught up with you, didn't it? I told you before—someone as vicious as you was bound to get what's coming!" She must have seen the news online. Seeing me dragged through the mud, hated by everyone—worse than even a rat in the gutter—seemed to fill her with pure joy. It was as if she'd been waiting for this day forever. I ignored her.But Cordelia couldn't hold back anymore and blurted, "Mrs. Quill, Emi's your biological daughter! How could you be so cruel to her?
Love You Like I Used To? Forget It! Chapter 333
I didn't know how to explain everything to Jeremy, and when I saw Henry helping Grandma out, I decided I didn't want her to find out about the mess online.So I just said, "I'll handle it, okay? You don't have to worry about it right now. Let's just focus on celebrating Grandma's birthday."Jeremy looked like he still wanted to say something, but when he saw Grandma coming, he swallowed his words.Henry smiled when he saw me. "Emi, you're back."It was strange.Back when Julianne was still around, Henry adored her—he practically worshiped her. He even went out of his way to sabotage me just to get Mom to like Julianne more. And when Julianne "died", he hated me so much that he looked ready to kill me.But after finally accepting her death, it was like he turned into a different person. He wasn't like Mom, still stuck in the past, hating me for Julianne. Instead, he seemed almost guilty.Henry started acting like he wanted to make it up to me—always checking in and being overly k
Love You Like I Used To? Forget It! Chapter 334
Jeremy immediately lit up, smiling as he warmly welcomed Julianne—no, Lumi—into the family. His sudden change of attitude made Julianne even more smug. She looked at me with a mocking glint in her eye as if to say, "Emilia, you're pathetic. You had two years, and you still ended up a joke. The moment I showed up, your family stopped caring about you again." My eyes darkened, and my hands, hanging loosely at my sides, slowly curled into fists. I didn't care about these so-called family members anymore. But that didn't mean I could stomach Julianne. She had repeatedly tried to get me killed. The reason I had suffered a life-threatening injury in the first place was because of her. Even if I couldn't kill her outright, I still wanted her to suffer as much as possible. It made my blood boil to see someone who should be rotting in prison walking around free and proud. But Noah once told me that Julianne wasn't William's real savior or his girlfriend. The only reason William ke
Love You Like I Used To? Forget It! Chapter 335
When I reached the ballroom, the once lively and elegant room was a complete disaster. Grandma was being yanked around by Amara, forcing Grandma to watch a video on her phone. Cordelia was shoved to her knees off to the side, her mouth covered by two men in black suits.Mom, Henry, Jeremy, and the rest of the guests were huddled on the floor, squeezed against the walls under the pressure of two rows of bodyguards, too scared to move. "You old hag, open your eyes! Look at what your precious granddaughter's done—seducing a married man, pushing his pregnant wife down, and causing a miscarriage! She was five months pregnant, and Emilia still shoved her! How vicious! How evil! She deserves to die!" Amara yanked at Grandma so hard she could barely stay on her feet. "Stop spouting nonsense! Emi would never do something like that! Let me go—let me go!" Grandma shouted.She fought to break free, but Amara only tightened her grip. Seeing Grandma stumble like she was about to fall,
Love You Like I Used To? Forget It! Chapter 336
Henry couldn't take it anymore either. "That's enough," he said. "This isn't Emi's fault. Why are you hitting her? She already feels guilty enough! And no matter what, she's your daughter. How could you tell her to die? You're really…"Henry swallowed the rest of his words. He was also worried about Grandma. So he didn't want to argue with Mom any further.Despite all his flaws, he had always been a devoted son to Grandma.Meanwhile, Julianne, who had followed us there, took out her phone and recorded me breaking down. After sending the video out, she began rewatching it, indulging in my pain."Emi, this is just the beginning," she murmured. She truly believed that the heavens were on her side.Julianne had been longing for revenge but lacked the power to do anything. She was also afraid that if William found out, he'd leave her, and she'd lose everything.Just as she was torn and unsure of what to do, the Hardwells showed up as a perfect ally. She didn't even have to lift a fi

I turned and saw Grace standing on the stairs, looking down at me like I was a bug she could crush with a single finger.My hands clenched into fists instinctively at my sides. Noticing them, she let out a mocking laugh. "Ms. Quill, are you regretting your disrespect last time?"I stayed silent, my fists tightening.Assuming that I didn't have the courage to talk back to her, she smirked even more condescendingly. "Hopefully this will be a lesson for you. When it's time to kneel, you kneel."Grace came from a prominent family and married into the wealthiest family in Lestoria. No one had ever dared speak to her the way I did at the hospital.It had enraged her so much that she flew all the way here herself, even after sending Amara to do her dirty work. She wanted to see with her own eyes how miserable and regretful I'd become for provoking her.Even so, I didn't kneel.She raised an eyebrow and asked, "What? Still don't realize you should be kneeling, Ms. Quill? Or are you ho

Grace's custom-made designer coat was now covered in dirty footprints from my shoes. She looked completely disheveled. After being helped up by her bodyguards, it took her a long while to recover.Back then, at the Lestoria Hospital, I merely talked back to her, and she couldn't handle it. She lost her composure and came all the way here. Now that I had actually hit her, it completely pushed her over the edge. "Emilia, just you wait!" she screamed. "I'll do everything I can to destroy you!"She had no idea where I got the nerve to do that to her.I had only shown her a bit of disrespect, and she retaliated by sending Grandma to the emergency room. So, wasn't I supposed to be scared of her? Shouldn't I be begging for mercy?How dare I fight back?How dare I?With such a lowly identity and status, I had actually hit her.In her entire life, no one had dared to even point a finger at her. And yet, I hit her?The more Grace thought about it, the more unhinged she became. Her ey

William's gaze deepened as he smiled at me. "I'm glad I have you. Otherwise, I might've had a hard time finding out the truth."He reached out once again to pat my head.But then, we heard someone call out, "Emi! Uncle Will!"William's outstretched hand froze at the sound of the overjoyed voice.Snapping back to reality, he quickly retracted his hand and stuffed it into his pocket. His already deep gaze now seemed so dark that it was like the vast deep space.I reflexively turned toward the direction of Noah's voice when I heard it.He had grown so much in the past year. He no longer had a youthful air around him and had now transformed into a full-grown adult. So much so that his image no longer matched the version of a younger brother I had.Noah had changed a lot, but the one thing that hadn't changed was the burning intensity in his eyes whenever he looked at me. He had been walking toward us at a brisk pace. But when our gazes met, he lost his composure and practically jogg

"Your mother believed Julianne's father would've continued to pine after her if she didn't have you with her that day. That was why, after that, she couldn't bring herself to treat you well, even though you were her own flesh and blood," William concluded.I was floored by this information.Seeing the dumbfounded look on my face, he couldn't help but gently and sympathetically pat my head again."So, forget about your mother. She's not worthy of your care," he advised.I was still at a loss for words.Fortunately, I had already given up on Mom long ago because I had become fed up with being disappointed by her. That was why, no matter how absurd things got with her, I could accept it. Hence, I was able to get over my shock quickly."And Julianne…" I started to ask."She can't move right now. Because of her frail health, your father administered many different drugs to boost her immune system in the past," William explained. "However, even he doesn't know what exactly he gave J

In this world, many mothers didn't love their children, and oftentimes, it was without reason. However, these mothers usually only loved themselves and not anyone else, let alone someone else's child.So, when a mother only loved her adopted daughter and not her biological one, there had to be a reason behind it.Mom answered William's question in a dazed state. William had encountered many strange things in life, but her answer still rendered him speechless.…That same evening, I had given Grandma a sponge bath and watched her until she fell asleep.I was about to go over some data when I received a message from William, saying he was in the hospital's garden.Figuring he had gotten the information he needed, I grabbed my down jacket and rushed downstairs. I was anxious to know what William had learned.As soon as I saw him, I asked, "What did my father say? Did he conduct any drug trials on Julianne?"William stared at me but didn't immediately answer. There was a hint of pi

I couldn't stand to even look at Julianne. So when I spotted her approaching, I said my goodbyes to William and left.Not long after I left, William stood up and turned to Julianne."Let's go. It's time to meet your godparents," he said.Julianne was momentarily taken aback before she quickly said, "William, what are you—""Showing my support. You only acknowledged Emilia Quill's parents as your godparents out of spite, didn't you?" William answered.Julianne knew she couldn't hide how much she hated me from William. Hence, she had decided from the get-go not to do so.However, she found herself asking, "Doesn't Noah like Emilia?"Wasn't William only helping me because of Noah?"So what?" William asked, cocking an eyebrow.Julianne's heart involuntarily skipped a beat at the devilish expression on his face.…My family was very excited when they received a phone call from Julianne, saying she would be bringing William to visit them."Isn't Lianne the best! She always thinks

Henry was a man of poor character who couldn't do anything right. However, he had a natural talent for creating all sorts of harmful drugs.As mentioned, if these were medieval times, he would surely be exalted as a talented alchemist—known for his ability to craft and cure poison. Truthfully, any drug Henry casually created would definitely be considered illegal.Struck with an idea, I looked up at William and said, "Why don't you talk to Henry directly? Given your status, I'm sure he will happily tell you everything."William looked pleased at my use of the word "happily"."That's actually why I came," he admitted.Then, thinking of something else, I quickly added, "Actually, no. Henry might not happily spill the beans to you. He's very protective of Julianne, so he may lie to you instead. You'll need to be careful discerning which of his words are true."William chuckled. "I know, don't worry. Once I've gotten all the puzzle pieces, and if Julianne is no longer useful, I'll ha

I admit that my way of thinking was outdated and too conservative. However, that was who I was, and there was nothing I could do about it, even though I wanted to change.If I could change my personality and loosen up, my life would probably be a lot simpler. There were so many handsome men out there. What could be better than spending time with some of them?I couldn't help sighing as I pondered Noah's borderline obsession with me.Suddenly, my phone rang—it was William calling."Where have you gone? I came to the hospital to visit your grandmother, but you're not here," he said.Hearing this, I told him to wait for me and said I would be there soon.When I arrived at the hospital, William was leaning against a red maple tree and smoking a cigarette.On this crisp autumn day, he was dressed in a camel wool coat. The coat had been tailored perfectly to fit his tall frame, making him appear even more striking.Beautiful people looked good no matter what they did, and William was

Just as I started to wonder who this person might be, Noah called me."Hey, Emi. You don't need to worry about what's happening online. Uncle Will told me he's already found evidence and will take action very soon. I'll be wrapping things up here and heading back soon too, Emi, so you don't have to be afraid of anyone anymore!" he said over the phone.After completing his master's, Noah started managing things for the Ashford family and his maternal grandfather's side of the family.As such, he was always on the go, flying to different countries. This time, he had been gone for over a month and had been in Eutanzia. Because he was so far away, he didn't know William had already exposed the video online as soon as he got it.Noah was so busy, and yet he was still concerned for me. I felt touched."You should focus on what you need to do, Noah, and rest whenever you can," I said. "You don't have to worry about me too much."Cordelia had asked me to look after him. But all this time

Grace was an arrogant woman who was convinced she was untouchable. Yet, I had struck her. Despite this, not only was she unresentful, but she even apologized to me—someone she considered a weed under her heel.It was honestly frightening. Grace truly was ruthless."I also heard Dorothy spoke disrespectfully toward you, Ms. Quill, because of our minor altercation. Although she acted out of concern for me, that doesn't excuse her behavior," Grace said.Then, glancing at Dorothy, she instructed, "Apologize to Ms. Quill right now, Dorothy!"Dorothy instantly teared up at her words. However, her aggrieved tears weren't for herself but for Grace.Grace was dignified, and she was precious to her. Yet, she had to apologize to such a lowly person like me.It broke Dorothy's heart to see this. But then she thought of Grace's grand plan and knew she had to endure this for the bigger picture.Hence, without the slightest hesitation, Dorothy stepped forward and curtsied. "I apologize, Ms. Qu

"We've let a wolf in sheep's clothing into our home, Grace!" Agatha lamented.Grace and Agatha had thought they could use Irvin. Yet, not only had they failed to, but he was now even oppressing them. They truly had made a mistake by bringing Irvin back to the family."Yeah…" Grace agreed.She initially wanted to turn Irvin into her greatest pawn—using him to seize back power over the Keller family and then to become the true power holder in the Hardwell family.However, she had forgotten that he was a Hardwell.And once Irvin had gained Magnus' recognition, he would quickly turn things around and be the one calling the shots instead.At first, Grace had set her sights on Irvin because of his business acumen. Now, ironically, she had been beaten by the very thing that had caught her eye.She had always thought she was intelligent. However, it was now clear to Grace that not only was she a fool, she was also incredibly naive.On top of that, she had underestimated Irvin and me. S
