Love You Like I Used To Forget It (Millie Bridge) novel Chapter 580

"In a way, you deserve this. This is the result of your failed schemings. It's not that the heavens are against you, or that everyone wants to hurt you. So stop overthinking it," Timothy said.

He meant to comfort her, but his words only deepened the pain.

Still, what he said was the truth. It wasn't the heavens, nor others, who were out to get her. Everything that had happened was her own doing. There was no one else to blame.

Although he wasn't a good man, at least he acknowledged that. No matter how things turned out or what the outcome was, he was prepared to accept it all and blame no one but his own shortcomings.

He would never blame the heavens or others for what happened.

Grace was so shaken by his words that she couldn't bring herself to complain anymore.

And as if that wasn't enough, he added, "If we choose to be the bad guys, we must be prepared for a tragic ending. Don't be mean and so fragile at the same time that you can't handle the consequence of failing."

Grace was speechless. She looked at him and was very curious to know if he was defeated by Irvin and lost everything, would he still be able to speak so casually?

But then, realizing that if he did lose, things would be even worse for her, she felt even more pathetic. She had lived her life so cautiously. She didn't deserve to be treated like this.

She had lost her mother at a young age and was raised by an abusive stepmother. Her life had been full of hardships.

That was why she wanted a better life. Was that so wrong? Did she truly not deserve happiness?

Grace thought it was unfair and wrong when Timothy said they should be ready for a tragic ending as the "bad guys". She never saw herself as a villain. She was simply pushed into this by the cruel circumstances of life.

If she could have lived a carefree life, she wouldn't have resorted to this.

No one had ever protected her. Why was it wrong and "bad" for her to fight for a better life with her own hands?

After the doctor confirmed that Irvin had fully recovered, William and I let out a breath of relief. His restored health meant we were halfway through repaying the debt we owed him for saving our lives.

The next step would be helping him destroy Timothy and regain control of the Hardwell family. Then, we would be even.

Seeing the way we sighed in perfect unison, Irvin's eyes darkened. He never imagined he would one day see me share such a bond with another man and desperately wanted to be done with him.

And he could only remain silent and endure it. After all, he no longer had the right to speak.

But right now, the top priority was to move against Timothy. He had been recruiting people and using his connections, wanting to have Irvin captured.

Timothy knew Irvin was in Redwood, so he had been pressuring the local authorities here.
