Regretful Tears Won't Bring Her Back Chapter 358
Once it was time, Liesel and Elijah went to pick up Xavier at the villa. Xavier was startled for a moment after noticing Liesel's delicate makeup before looking away uncomfortably. He asked, "Why didn't you sit in the wheelchair? Don't be so stubborn if you haven't fully recovered.""I'm almost fully recovered." Liesel had just started explaining when Xavier turned to look at Elijah. "Where's her wheelchair?"Elijah deliberately chuckled at that moment, seeming amused at the sight of Xavier taking care of Liesel. Elijah merely shrugged and acted innocent after Liesel cast him a fierce glare. It went without saying that Elijah had told Xavier. Since he couldn't convince Liesel, he had secretly contacted Xavier. He had an idea that Liesel would not object to Xavier.Men were such scoundrels. Elijah leisurely paced back and forth beside Liesel at that moment and sighed. "Oh, someone's only willing to listen to Xavier and not me."Liesel stepped on Elijah's foot hard in revenge,

Helena had very high hopes for Xavier. Her words "I encourage you to take your future into your own hands and forge your path to greatness" had fully captured the hopes she had for him. Helena hoped that Xavier would become Alden University's top student.Xavier looked up at Helena. Although she was getting older, she still remained alert. She always had been gentle and elegant. He often received help from her while living with the Scotts for many years. In fact, Helena also proposed for the highest scorer to receive a scholarship so Xavier could receive the funds.After learning what happened to the Scotts, Helena changed the scholarship to fully exempt Xavier from paying the school fees. She also supplied free lunches and textbooks because she couldn't bear to see Xavier's talents go to waste. Xavier glanced at Helena with a determined expression before bowing. Helena smiled in relief. "Go ahead. Lead the other students and take the oath together to welcome the upcoming col

"Xavier's very happy. You don't have to feel so guilty about certain things." Elijah told Liesel, who looked downward a little with a faint smile on her lips. "Just because he's happy now doesn't mean he wasn't hurt before. I can only do my best to make it up to him.""Sometimes, you can focus more on yourself instead." Elijah reached out to pat Liesel gently on her head. He drew his hand back with a secret chuckle after Liesel glared at him.It was the night of Ashthorne First High School's prom night. Some female students were already secretly casting glances at Xavier. There were even students who began shoving a pretty girl to Xavier's side. Anna McCarthy had round cheeks and delicate features, and she looked gorgeous. At that moment, her face was completely flushed, yet she was still casting furtive glances at Xavier with pursed lips. "Xavier, will you dance with me?" Xavier put a hand in his pocket and looked into the distance with slightly pursed lips. "I'm really sorr

Liesel had always known that pregnancy, miscarriage, or childbirth could cause significant damage to a woman's body, but she only truly understood it after experiencing it herself.She felt weak and dizzy. She was occasionally seeing spots and dry-heaving. Her legs were unsteady, and her entire body felt like it was walking on cotton.But this was Xavier's graduation prom night, and she wanted to dance with him.She wanted to tell him that she was there for him and he wasn't alone."Come on. Dance with me," she said with a smile.Xavier paused for a moment before taking her hand again and pulling her into an embrace. He could clearly smell the faint scent of herbs on her. She'd been drinking medicine lately.She had really been through a lot.As they danced, Xavier looked down to meet Liesel's eyes, which were always gentle and smiling whenever she looked at him.Sometimes, Xavier thought that the way Liesel looked at him didn't seem like the gaze of an older sister at her youn

Xavier continued, "Now I get it. You didn't refuse to let me grow up with you. You chose a path for me that would let me survive. You wanted me to have an easier, carefree life. And when I got hurt, you were right there in danger too."Even now, with all that you've achieved, they still insult you because of your gender. It seems like the only way for you to avoid their malice is to climb higher, to stand at the top and look down on everyone."You wanted me to escape this life, but you're trapped in the nightmare forever. I've figured it out now."Xavier held Liesel's cold fingers and awkwardly mimicked Elijah's usual gesture to warm them up. "Can we forgive each other?"He would forgive her for years of neglect and disregard, and she would forgive him for hurting her.She was his sister, and he was her little brother. They were a family.Although Xavier only said to forgive each other, Liesel could almost read his true feelings in the depths of his eyes.Her throat tightened, a

Xavier sat still. The warm breeze swept through his hair, which revealed his handsome face. He didn't unbuckle his seatbelt or get out of the car. Instead, his gaze was fixed on Elijah's face."I can't leave in this situation," Xavier said calmly. "You can take me with you."Elijah's face remained serious as he ignored Xavier's objection and unbuckled his seatbelt. "Don't be stubborn. Lili will be heartbroken if something happens to you."He chose the word "heartbroken" instead of "guilty."Xavier's gaze turned sharp and intense. "Wouldn't you be heartbroken if something happened to Liesel? I'm her brother, and you're her lover."Who was more important—her brother or her lover? No one would have an answer to that.Xavier and Liesel were clearly siblings. Their temperaments were so similar. If it were Liesel in this situation, would she act differently? No. She wouldn't abandon Elijah to go off on her own either."Listen to me, Xavier."Elijah cracked his knuckles and said serio

Augustine closed in. His broad frame loomed, and as he raised his arm, the muscles in his bicep flexed. He pushed back his damp blond hair, exposing his sweaty forehead. His rugged, audacious face came into view. He was hot, but compared to Elijah, he carried a rougher, darker edge."Is it because of Ms. Sharp? I really want to know what kind of face she has that makes you so obsessed with her. Is she more beautiful than Duke Sylvian's daughter?"Augustine's hatred for Elijah stemmed from their past. Augustine had once been madly in love with Finlay Sylvian's daughter, but she only had eyes for Elijah.On top of that, Elijah had completely outshone him in racing. It was no surprise that Augustine's jealousy had turned into bitter resentment.Elijah's expression darkened at his words. With a swift motion, he grabbed Augustine by the collar. His voice was cold and deadly as he warned, "Direct your madness at me. Don't lay a finger on Lili, or I'll haunt you even in death."Augustine

Xavier's white shirt was soaked in blood. The deep wound from the glass shards lodged in his chest, and blood was gushing in steady spurts."Hang in there, Xavier! You can't pass out! I'm taking you to the hospital!" Ethan's voice was frantic as he held Xavier.Elijah had trusted him with Xavier's safety. He couldn't let Xavier fall here.Ethan struggled to hail a cab while holding Xavier steady.Xavier opened his eyes and wiped the blood from his forehead. His voice was no longer calm. "Bandage my wound. Take me to the exam venue." He sounded determined."Are you out of your mind? How can you take the exam in this condition?" Ethan's eyes widened as he argued. He was going to force Xavier to the hospital. "I need to take the exam. Elijah asked you to take me," Xavier said.As soon as Elijah's name slipped out, Ethan gritted his teeth in frustration.He was also injured and weak, yet he couldn't help but be taken aback by the reckless determination emanating from Xavier."Dam

Reuben handed Liesel a red-covered envelope, but his expression was strange as he did so. Was there something hidden in the letter?Liesel opened it, and her eyes twitched as she read the few words written inside. "What is this?"The writing looked like a tangled mess of worms twisted together into a few sentences. It wasn't just ugly—it was excessively so.Reuben fell silent for a moment. "It's not that hard to read."Liesel handed the letter back to him. Her gesture clearly said, "If it's so easy, you read it."Reuben's face remained as calm as ever. "Liesel..." He simply said her name before stopping."It's not important. What matters is that the only person who can match Howard's intellect and keep up with his progress is you. Since he wants to meet you and the authorities want you to be involved, I hope you can take this collaboration seriously, Ms. Sharp."He said it wasn't important, but actually, he just couldn't read Howard's alien handwriting.Liesel clicked her tongu

Belinda's verbal attacks only made Liesel realize one thing—Belinda wasn't a particularly smart person.Once truly intelligent people understood their opponent's cards, they wouldn't provoke them so recklessly, without considering the family's reputation or the consequences of their actions.It was selfish, cold-hearted, immature, and laughable.Liesel was already pushing Elijah's wheelchair out of the Turner residence's living room when Reuben nodded slightly at Nathan. His commanding gaze swept over Belinda as he murmured, "The younger generation of the Turner family needs to be properly taught manners."With that, Reuben left with the special forces.Glaring at their retreating backs, Belinda ground her teeth, but her expression was one of desolation.She could feel the vast distance between her and Liesel. She was unwilling to accept her defeat. She wouldn't just hand Elijah over to Liesel. One day, she would take Elijah back, no matter what.Liesel remained unaware of Belin

But since Heather had chosen her lover over her children when she was forced to make that choice, she was doomed to carry that guilt for the rest of her life.She had made her choice, and it was a mistake. Maybe it would be easier if she truly believed she was heartless.Since Liesel and Xavier were her and Jason's children, they had to be exceptional. Only then could they truly live up to their brilliant bloodline.Heather arrived at the research facility and looked at the man lying quietly on the bed, who was slowly recovering. Crouching on the cold floor, she gently held his hand and softly rubbed it."Jay, do you think I've made a mistake?"There was no response.Only the soft whisper of the breeze could be heard. Though it was the height of summer, the air felt unnervingly cold.Heather gazed at Jason, who was still trapped in his deep slumber."Jay, when you wake up, we'll go back to Ashthorne. They may not accept me, but they'll accept you. We can… go home together."Sh

After Jason's incident, Reuben had once asked Heather for a chance to pursue her. Without a second thought, she rejected him and introduced him to countless rich young women.But Reuben had remained single all this time. He had no lover, no family, and only a few adopted children he had raised.Heather could tell from his gaze that he still harbored some hope.Smiling, she said, "Reuben, if you're so interested in our news, why don't you keep an eye on Liesel? She's my daughter, after all. I'll contact her eventually, won't I?"When it came to people she didn't care for, she was always ruthless.She casually shifted the problem she considered troublesome onto Liesel. Her smile returned, and she looked at Liesel intently, as if waiting for her response."Are you waiting for my reaction?" Liesel asked. "I've always found myself in so many dangerous situations with Elijah. I'm more than happy if more bodyguards sent by the authorities come along. Thank you."There was nothing aroun

The other faction, the conservatives, insisted on waiting for Jason to wake up.However, those researchers were protected by the government. Without Jason, they had no real way to communicate with these researchers.They were close to backing down.That was when Heather hacked into the surveillance system. She knew those lunatics had drawn blood from Jason, and some even went so far as to drink it, all in the name of boosting their intelligence.They were insane."When I took Jay, they'd already drawn a thousand milliliters of blood from him. How cruel can you be? You were just hoping he'd die for the sake of your research. If I hadn't taken Jay, he would've been dead. And now you have the nerve to lecture me, accusing me of committing a crime?""If that's the case, haven't those researchers and everyone who was involved in this all violated the law? Can't I sue them, too?"Heather scoffed. "Don't force me to change my nationality and take this to the international courts. If it

Liesel was not someone who could be defeated easily.She was dangerous and powerful. Even in the pursuit of love, she never truly gave up on her own goals. She might feel pain from betrayal, but the next moment, she would rise again.No one could truly bring her down. She would always love herself.If someone tried to make her a pawn, she would destroy the entire game. She would always be the one in control, manipulating the game, never the one being manipulated.Not by Matthew, and certainly not by Heather.The hall was silent. All eyes were on the confrontation between mother and daughter. Everyone expected Heather, with her vast experience, to completely overpower Liesel. But that wasn't the case. Liesel not only stood firm, but she seemed to be gaining the upper hand.Nathan's gaze darkened as he observed Liesel. A monster had given birth to another monster.Meanwhile, Heather could see a line of high-ranking individuals standing behind Liesel on the screen. They were all th

Heather remained unnervingly calm, as if the life at stake was nothing more than a figurine to her."You're terrifying," Liesel said as she looked at Heather. "Actually, there's no real connection between us. My mom died more than a decade ago. She was driven to cut her wrists due to my dad's actions."She wasn't some strong, dangerous woman who could scare people in the business world. She was a weak, pitiful woman who couldn't protect her children. She was so powerless and incapable that she was driven to her death. My mom is long gone."Liesel spoke slowly. Each word was clear enough for Heather to understand.But Heather didn't grow angry. She simply smiled and spoke in a calm, almost soothing tone, "I gave birth to you, Liesel. Your exceptional genes come from me. That's an irrefutable fact. Whether I'm alive or dead, you will always be Heather Mallone's daughter."Her words wrapped around Liesel like an unbreakable chain. Yes, she would always be Heather's daughter.It was

Heather could do everything and overthrow anything for Jason. Liesel was able to do the same for Elijah. Any man who had their love could obtain everything.Liesel was doing her best to ignore Elijah's legs. She forced herself to not look at his crippled legs. "I'll settle the score with you over a few things once we're home." Liesel glanced at Elijah with a gentle gaze. He sighed helplessly. "I'm already like this."Liesel merely held his fingertips before slowly getting to her feet. Since Elijah was behind her, she stood up as if she wanted to block Elijah from view. "Ms. Mallone, long time no see." Everyone knew that Liesel was drop-dead gorgeous. However, it was Heather's first time officially meeting the adult Liesel via video call. Liesel was far similar to who Heather used to be. Although they had different demeanors, Liesel could be considered an exact copy of Heather. Despite her gentle appearance, Heather gave off a venomous demeanor. But Liesel was different. S

"Liesel has all this because of me." Heather beamed. "So, I was the one who created her. What gave you the right to ask me to remain in the shadows?"You want the creator to step aside for a figurine souvenir? Have you heard of such a thing?" Heather did not refer to herself as Liesel's mother. She referred to their relationship as a creator and her figurine souvenir. She clearly did not love Liesel.Elijah's gaze grew colder. Meanwhile, everyone present was shocked at Heather's words. Before Elijah could respond at all, someone already pushed open the door to the Turner residence's living room. Since the sound was quite loud, everyone turned to look. Instead, they saw Liesel, who truly resembled Heather. After Liesel pushed open the door, two tall, handsome men followed her inside. One man had short black hair, seeming gentle and refined. The other had long silver hair with a rugged appearance. They stood beside her as if they were her bodyguards. Behind the trio were numero
