Chapter 640: Chapter 658: The Cute Baby’s Smart Counterattack (1)

He raised his head and looked at the blue sky, even clearer and more beautiful than yesterday, without a trace of white clouds. Yet, his heart was hidden in a veil of gloom, as though it would never see the light of day again.

He murmured softly, "Isabel, is it really so hard for you to have even a tiny bit of space for me in your heart?"

Isabel felt as if her throat were blocked by something, making it hard for her to speak.

Her hands clenched into fists as she looked at the documents that Percy had spread all over the floor, and a sour feeling welled up in the bottom of her eyes.

After a while, she sniffled, her voice hoarse as she stared at the photo of Percy caught sleeping that she had secretly taken last night, "You’re right. I did want to turn myself in. Ever since I returned to the country, I’ve been waiting for this day. I waited for a long time, and finally, it came... "

It slowly dawned on her that Percy must have found out about her parents’ murder at the hands of Sebastian Smith’s family during their time at Rose Manor when she had confided in him, thinking him asleep, while he had been eavesdropping.

Isabel swallowed hard, suppressing the rolling sorrow in her heart, and slowly moved her gaze away from the photo of Percy.

If she really didn’t have a tiny bit of him in her heart, as he had said, why would she have taken a photo of him and kept it?

She thought that if she really went to prison, she could look at this photo during those long and freedomless years, and slowly remember that she had met a man in her life who loved her deeply.

"Percy..I think, the reason you know about my parents’ death at the hands of the Sebastian Smith’s family is that I told you about it when I thought you were asleep at Rose Manor," she said.

"At that time, I had already told you everything I wanted to say...before I was Isabel, I was my parents’ daughter, Velour’s older sister...I couldn’t just let it go when my parents died tragically before my eyes...After waiting for so long, Sebastian Smith finally lost all of his power in the Smith Corporation, so I cooperated with him anonymously to get evidence of his crimes. I can’t think of any reason to give up."

She had been conflicted and wavering.

She had thought about finding a better way to exact revenge on Sebastian Smith’s family without implicating herself.

But she couldn’t think of a better way.

Especially when Evelyn Osbert told her that her child was already dead...she couldn’t wait any longer...

Actually, by now, if Percy was angry and cursed her or blamed her, she would accept it all.

It seemed that she had already made a mess of her life; it would be best for Percy to abandon her completely and fulfill her wish.

Perhaps in this lifetime, she would never meet another person who cared for her so deeply and treated her so well, but she would not regret it.

Even if she ends up alone when she gets out of prison, she wouldn’t blame fate or anyone else.

If one missed out on their best years, they might have truly missed out for a lifetime.

Isabel struggled to hold back the acidic teardrops that welled up in her eyes, trying to maintain a calm expression as she looked at Percy and said, "Percy, I’m sorry... I’m not worth your love. Just forget about me and find a woman who can love you wholeheartedly. Isn’t that a good way to live?"

A woman who loves him?

In this world, there were so many women who loved him; if he wanted to find one, he could have done so a long time ago; why would he need to wait until now?

Percy curled his lips into a smile, as if he had just heard a funny joke, but his eyes gradually turned melancholic.

He understood her words.

She was determined to turn herself in.

Isabel, transfixed by the silent, sorrowful, and smiling Percy, turned her head away and spoke after a while, "Love in the next life... Percy, in the next life, I’ll be a woman who’s worthy of you, and I’ll love you wholeheartedly."
