Chapter 15.
Listening to Terry’s words, Adam felt a sharp pang of pain spread through his heart.
Adam thought, “If only time could be rewound. And if only I could go
back seven years and stop all of this from happening!
“But in this world, nothing can ever be redone.
“What’s done is done, and the bann caused can never be undone.‘
At the same time, Kim remained silent.
Suddenly, Kim slapped Grace with a resounding crack
Grace covered her bruised cheek and looked at Kim
1 at Kim in disbelief,
Kim, however, had a calm face and a disappointed look in his eyes.
At that moment, a flood of emotions overwhelmed Kim, and the slap Grace received was the least of it.
“Dad”
Kim looked calmly at Grace and said in a cold tone, “You don’t deserve to call me Dad anymore.”
Kim turned red–eyed and said, “Didn’t you just say you were not part of the Hacker family? Since that’s the case, we will pay back what we owe Amanda. And of course, you must pay back what you owe Amanda, too!”
The last few words were spoken with intense emotion, a reflection of Kim’s chaotic and aching heart.
Everyone was stunned for a moment.
Terry, who was the first to come out of his trance, closed his eyes, and the tears silently ran down his face.
Terry looked at Grace.
“You are a thief, a criminal, and I will never forgive you for the rest of my life!”
After those words, Terry left his suffocating home without hesitation.
Terry stumbled for a moment and almost fell when he walked out the door.
In fact, anyone would struggle to accept that the person they had been defending all along was actually the worst of them all.
And what about the person who had been misunderstood all that time?
She must have been so desperate and heartbroken.
Terry dared not to think th
that
At that moment, Grace stood still like a piece of wood, her face alternating between red and pale
Grace actually felt that the word “thief” from Terry carried more weight than that slap, leaving her even more ashamed and utterly humiliated.
“Adam, L.”
The moment Grace opened her mouth, Adam’s cold and merciless gaze silenced her in an instant
Adam was not only cold in appearance, but also he said in an unprecedentedly cold tone, “You don’t deserve to call my name anymore.”
“But, is there really no room for reconciliation between us because of this incident?”
Grace did not understand.
Grace thought, “I’ve r
grown up with Adam since chil
childhood.
“Is Adam going to dismiss all these years of shared history, just because of Amanda, who appeared out of nowhere, and because of a few mistakes I
“Weren’t you the one who cherished me the most? Why couldn’t you forgive me for
making a mistake?”
Grace looked sincere, as if she genuinely wanted an answer.
Adam sneered, “I see that until now, you still think what you did wrong was just a minor thing.”

“Isn’t it true? Amanda just returned to the place where she grew up since childhood, and stayed there for seven years. She didn’t die, indeed!”

Grace had an expression of taking things for granted
“Do you know how much Amanda suffered in Ouray? She was covered in bruises all over her body!”
“So what? She deserved it! Who told her to come back!” Grace vented her frustration.
“What if I was pretending? What if I had people torment Amanda? I just wish she were dead!
“But I couldn’t make it too obvious, because then the one you’d all hate and despise would become me.”
At the same time, Grace reached out her arm, wanting to embrace Adam’s neck.
“Adam…”
Suddenly, there was a loud crack, and that was the sound of a bone breaking
Adam, with a gloomy expression, tightly gripped Grace’s wrist, exerting such a strong force that he actually snapped the bone.
“No” Grace screamed, clutching her hand.
Meanwhile, Amanda just woke up from a long dream and opened the blackout curtain on the plane.
Amanda stared blankly at the pitch–black horizon.
ny years.
Amanda had dreamt of her father, mother, and older brother, as well as Adam, whom she had loved for many
“If only you hadn’t come back that year. Why did you have to do such a wrong thing?
“Amanda, you are the one I love the most. Marrying Grace was a sham.”
No one loved Amanda, and no one trusted her, either.
The grey, damp, and cloudy day was intertwined with the tears Amanda managed to hold back
Fortunately, the announcement of the plane reaching its destination sounded at that moment
“Ladies and gentlemen, this flight is scheduled to arrive in Grenadan in five minutes. The ground temperature is 20 degrees Celsius, and the plane is now descending”
Amanda cast aside those sentimental dreams..
Looking at the increasingly bright and clear city outside the window, Amanda wore a smile.
Amanda was ready to have a new life when she arrived in Grenadan
