Jamie’s face darkened, and he had mixed feelings.
"What do you an?"
Looking at Jamie’s rare and complicated expression, Ellen curled up her red lips, and her smile was particularly charming.
"Jamie, you always think you are capable and have a solution for everything.
"But you ended up being fooled by a greedy, hypocritical, and vicious woman.
"You should know who I am talking about, right? It is Fiona, a total liar who you have been flattering for so long."
In an instant, Jamie’s handso face turned pale.
But Ellen was just getting started.
She had been looking forward to this mont for a long ti.
Ellen stared at Jamie, not wanting to miss the slightest change in his expression.
"Jamie, do you rember what I said before you went abroad? I told you that I looked for you.
"But you never believed it. And the truth was that I really did show up.
"Other than looking for you, I also brought 5 million dollars with to help you overco the temporary crisis. However, I was robbed on the way to find you."
Jamie used to disregard Ellen’s words and thought they were simply a lie. But at that mont, he was sohow frightened by what Ellen had said.
It was as if there was a voice warning him.
The voice told Jamie not to listen.
It asked Jamie not to listen to Ellen’s words.
If everything he used to believe in was proved to be wrong, then Jamie didn’t know how to face Ellen and himself anymore. Because that ant he was the one who hurt Ellen before.
Jamie clenched his fist until he could not hold it anymore, and his cold face beca even more serious. He was giving away a terrifying and unapproachable vibe.
"Ellen, don’t ntion the past anymore! Co back now, and I will treat you well!"
Things from the past were haunting Jamie again.
Perhaps, he had once been so close to the truth, but now he did not want to know any of it.
However, Ellen could not allow Jamie to get away with the past easily.
As Jamie turned uncomfortable, Ellen continued.
She just wanted to see Jamie’s expression when he fell into a place where everything he believed in was no longer true.
"I know you don’t want to believe it, but it is the truth.
"Afterwards, the robber disappeared and committed another cri abroad. He went to prison for a few years. When he ca out, I happened to et him.
"And he told sothing very interesting. He said to that they were ordered to kill by your beloved fiancée, Fiona.
"After they knocked on my head, they thought I died when they found out I was out of breath. So they threw into the ditch.
"The money I prepared for your plan was taken away from by Fiona. She surely took good care of you all these years, didn’t she?"
In a split second, Jamie’s expression changed drastically.
"You are lying."
Ellen answered, "You don’t believe in yet again, right? Fine. I am lying. But the story isn’t over yet."
"Say no more!" Jamie stiffened with a cold expression.
"On the way to the ferry, you t so hooligans and were beaten to the point of vomiting blood. Did Fiona say that she saved you when you were in danger?"
Jamie’s eyes widened, and he acted as if his blood was frozen.
He obviously didn’t want to hear anything, but his throat couldn’t produce any sound to stop Ellen.
"The truth was that I was the one who chased away those hooligans and risked my life to save you. I took you to hide in the bone-piercing cold river for a few hours.
"In the end, when I was found by the fishern, they had to send to the hospital because I was out of strength. When I woke up, I forgot about that because of my brain injury. Then, Fiona stepped in and took all the credits."
Jamie stared blankly as Ellen told the story calmly as if she was an outsider.
In an instant, a piercing pain rose from Jamie’s heart, making it difficult for him to breathe.
Everything seed to be just a trap.
And his hatred for Ellen looked like a misunderstanding.
Jamie recalled the words that Ellen had once said.
"Jamie, I didn’t lie to you."
"Jamie, I really went to find you."
"Have you ever thought that all of this was Fiona’s trick?"
Those cries and those shouts of despair were hurtful.
And yet Jamie chose to turn a deaf ear to them and ignore them with an indifferent attitude.
Ellen seed satisfied by Jamie’s response. At that mont, she felt she finally got her revenge and was joyful for the first ti in the past five years.
It was different from those fake smiles that she had to put on as disguise just to make others feel at ease.
"Jamie, as long as you go to Luxembourg for an investigation into the robbers, you will know whether I am telling the truth or not. The robbers already confessed everything eight years ago."
"No! No need to."
Jamie said as if he was having a sore throat.
There was no point in investigating.
When Fiona almost lost her life, she had already told the truth that Jamie could possibly never know in his life.
It was enough to explain everything.
Jamie chose to ignore the truth because he would rather lie to himself instead of swallowing the hard pill.
He simply couldn’t accept the truth.
Now that everything had been torn apart and uncovered by Ellen, there were no longer any secrets.
All the darkness and dirtiness were exposed.
Jamie could no longer lie to himself.
"Jamie."
Ellen casually called Jamie’s na and sneered, "You said you were even with . How can you be even with ?
"You are nothing!"
These words were like a powerful slap on Jamie’s handso face.
He was numb and seed to have lost his soul, like a walking corpse that had already rotted.
After so many years, Jamie finally tasted the feeling of despair.
Ellen thought to herself, but was it enough?
No!
What Ellen wanted to do was not just watch Jamie have a heartbreak.
Jamie, it’s not over. The pain I have suffered, the piercing wounds and the despair I have experienced are all unforgivable.
You have to pay the price.
Then Ellen brushed the hair behind her ears and said with emotion, "Mr. McBride, I still have sothing to do. I have to go. Goodbye!"
Jamie was still in a daze, but his senses reminded him that he could not let Ellen go.
"Ellen, don’t go."
As soon as he said anything, Jamie had a hoarse voice as if his throat was burned.
Ellen curled her red lips and sneered, "Do you know that I an we will never see each other again?"
"No."
Jamie t Ellen’s hateful gaze. He felt stunned, and for the first ti, he was speechless.
His heart felt like being bitten by countless ants, and it was painful. So Jamie couldn’t help but cover his chest.
He hated it when Ellen called him Mr. McBride instead of his first na. It felt strange and ironic.
"Ellen, don’t go. Please don’t go."
There were nurous blood streaks in Jamie’s eyes, as if blood would spill out in the next second.
"Ellen, I have never forgotten about you for the past five years. I even thought that I slept with you for five years. If you didn’t co back that night, I would still have thought that it was your body."
Ellen almost instantly understood what Jamie was talking about.
In an instant, she felt extrely disgusted.
After all, a normal person would never sleep with a dead body, not to ntion for five years long.
Sure enough, Ellen found Jamie was a ridiculous psycho. He was mad.
"Ellen!"
Jamie tightly held Ellen’s arm with his powerful hand. His eyes were filled with greed and care.
"Give a chance. I will definitely change. Please. Let treat you well, alright?"
Ellen’s delicate face was filled with disgust, and she refused to have any physical contact with Jamie.
Then Ellen shook off the frail Jamie and took a few steps back before speaking.
"Mr. McBride, do you really want an opportunity?"
