Chapter 1612

Aurum honestly believed that his silent efforts and years of companionship had wielded results. He thought that Gale had a change of heart and that she had feelings for him.

Therefore, he hastily canceled the engagement with Natalie, severing ties. He wanted a fresh start, unburdened, to embrace Gale.

However, what transpired was realizing that it was all his own misguided imagination.

Gale sighed. "I lied. Back then, it was just to deceive Shawn for a divorce."

In a moment of rashness, she wounded two people, Shawn and Aurum.

"I'm sorry. I thought you ended things with Natalie because you found the real heiress of the Yarn family. I thought you claimed to like me just to use me as a cover, so I went along and said I liked you too," Gale added.

Unexpectedly, she was the true Ms. Yarn, and Aurum's love was genuine. However, her proclamation of loving him was a lie.

Aurum slowly clenched his fists. "Everything was fake, all of it. The only true thing is your love for Shawn."
