Chapter 111

Irvin understood how Julianne felt. Even so, he couldn't reciprocate her romantic feelings."It doesn't matter how much you hate her, Lianne. You can't do something like this," he scolded her. "You know I've only ever loved you like a sister. It doesn't matter what Emi did. We will never be together regardless. Don't hate her even more over this, okay?"Julianne's birth mother was the Sawyers' housekeeper, Diana Sinclair.After Irvin's mother—Lizzie Windsor—gave birth to him, her body became frail. She had been too weak to raise him. Thus, Diana had practically raised him on her own.Diana had raised both Irvin and Julianne. As such, they had done everything together from a young age. So naturally, they had formed a deep bond.For Irvin, Julianne was like his own younger sister. Hence, he trusted her intrinsically and had always been indulgent toward her. It was to the point where he would always look at things from her perspective. When he found out she was behind Emilia's b

Mr. Holland seemed to read my mind."Put away thoughts about your love life from now on," he said as he gently patted my shoulder. "Focus on your studies and research and become someone useful to society and the nation. That's the best way to repay me."I didn't know what to say. More tears welled up in my eyes."You were feeling hopeless and afraid, weren't you?" Mr. Holland continued. "Although you believed in your innocence, you thought this couldn't possibly be solved so quickly. You were even prepared to spend time in prison. Am I right?"I wasn't sure why he was suddenly asking me all this. But I nodded in agreement and replied, "Yes.""You thought that way because you had given up on yourself to support Irvin. This left you with no support and no connections." He pointed out."If you hadn't given up on your studies back then, you would have become an indispensable person in your field," he said with such conviction. "No one would have been able to bring you down so easily.

Dad did so to stop Mom from confronting me. According to the fake medical record, I would keep forgetting anything that I had done to Julianne. Therefore, when the drugging video was released, she simply believed I had done it.Because of this, her hatred for me grew despite the fact that I was her own flesh and blood.As for Julianne, she had accidentally discovered that Phillip didn't intend for Irvin to inherit the family business. He also wanted to disown Irvin. Coincidentally, Irvin just happened to be pursuing the person she despised most—me.Because of this, she decided to become the new Mrs. Sawyer. She intended to give birth to a new heir so that she could take over the Sawyer family. She would also make Irvin regret his choice in the process.Thus, she slept with Phillip. She thought he had lusted after her for a long time. Plus, she was also much younger than him. Hence, she was sure he would be in the palm of her hand.However, things went against her expectations.

Irvin's gaze met mine. He looked as though he was in emotional turmoil. It was possible that even he didn't know how to describe what he was feeling at that moment.After all, he had always resolutely believed I had harmed Julianne out of sheer maliciousness. And now, he was experiencing a rude awakening.He also looked like he hadn't rested much these past few days. His eyes were dull and bloodshot. He also didn't look as dashing or energetic as he usually was.The old me would probably be heartbroken at this sight. Unfortunately, I was no longer that person. I didn't feel anything for him. In fact, I thought Irvin owed me an apology.He had marched up to me as this thought came to mind.Gripping my arm, he asked, "There has to be some sort of misunderstanding. Right, Emi?"I couldn't help laughing when I heard his question. I pitied my former self.When Julianne accused me of drugging her, he immediately believed her. When she said I was the reason Phillip had assaulted her, I

"You evil witch! What are you trying to do now!" Mom shouted as she hit me. "Was harming Lianne not enough? Now, you want to harm your father too? He's your birth father! What sin did I commit to end up giving birth to a wretched child like you!"Mark—who had been standing to the side—stepped in front of me to shield me from her.A few officers standing nearby had also rushed over and intervened. One of them gave her a stern warning to refrain from making a scene or assaulting someone at a police station. His name tag read "Gordon".However, Mom didn't seem to care where she was or who she was talking to. Her rage had probably blinded her."What's the issue?" she continued shouting. "Is it against the law for me to discipline my daughter? I gave her life! So what if I hit her a few times?"She thought she had the right to beat me to death since she had given birth to me. She also probably thought no one had the right to criticize her for doing so since she was my mom.I had been

Dad was also adamant that he knew nothing about the drugging incident.He admitted he had brought me to the lounge. He also admitted to drugging me with Abyde. He said he had given me an improved version. Hence, he wanted to see if I could make it home while under its effects.He denied having any knowledge of why I ran into Julianne there, let alone her whole scheme to frame me. He declared that he didn't know anything about what had transpired that day.He also said that Julianne had only shown him the video when she returned two years ago. By then, five years had passed since the incident occurred. That was the reason he hadn't connected the two together.Besides, I had never gotten along with Julianne and couldn't stand to see her doing well. Thus, he professed this was why he had immediately believed I had drugged her. He also claimed he didn't remember that was the day he had fed me with Abyde.To put it simply, Dad was saying he was only guilty of drugging me with Abyde as

Irvin instinctively smiled when he saw me. Or rather, he tried to. Unfortunately, his facial muscles were stiff from the cold and weren't cooperating.It seemed he wanted me to pity him. It was probably all part of his strategy to win me over.My past self couldn't stand seeing him in any pain. It was agonizing to her if he wasn't even the slightest bit uncomfortable.But now? My current self merely looked at him indifferently. I didn't feel anything for him, not even the least bit of attachment. My heart didn't ache. I didn't feel any love or any hate toward him. There wasn't even anger. There was only detachment.My feeling toward him was colder than the winter frost.He started panicking when he saw this. So much so, that he looked as though he could barely breathe."You must be feeling very disappointed in me. Right, Emi?" he asked.Perhaps he finally had time to reflect after placating Julianne. It seemed he remembered how he had misjudged me over the drugging incident.

I hadn't slept much when I was in the detention center. Now that I was back home, I could finally be completely at ease. I was even able to sleep that night without taking any sleeping pills.I wasn't sure how long I had been asleep. Suddenly, I was rudely awakened by the banging on my door. Before I could even open my eyes, I heard Mom's angry voice outside.Given what had happened, it was expected that she would come looking for me. So, it didn't surprise me.I intentionally took my time getting dressed. Mom's temper was starting to flare as she continued banging on the door. She had been doing so for quite some time yet I hadn't answered the door.Just as she was about to bang harder, I finally opened it."Were you dead or something? What took you so long to answer the door? I've been knocking for ages!" she yelled.I glanced coolly at her. "I know you very badly want to see me dead. But too bad, I'm still alive. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to answer the door."Mom was furi

"You know your father doesn't dare do anything illegal! Also, Lianne definitely didn't frame you. So withdraw the lawsuit right now!" Mom was adamant Dad and Julianne were innocent.I lowered my head upon seeing her conviction.I had no longer expected any maternal love from her. However, that didn't stop me from thinking…She knew I never drugged Julianne. She had also been told that the whole incident had been orchestrated by Dad and Julianne. I thought she would at least feel guilty after knowing the truth. At the very least, she owed me an apology.Yet, just like Irvin, she felt no remorse. They had never once felt they were in the wrong for treating me so unjustly. All they cared about was protecting Julianne.My thoughts wandered back to what she had said earlier—"We're your family. Yet, we don't like you. Even your beloved husband despises you. Can't you reflect on yourself? Stop blaming everyone else!"I couldn't help but wonder if I was truly the problem. Was I not goo
