Chapter 443
Ophelia’s mind was as full of double standards as ever.
Finnian sneered and said, “Wasn’t it you and your adulterer who set me up from start to finish? It was all a setup from the moment we met. I had to endure the nausea and put up with you before, all for The Hill Family. You don’t really think you’re so attractive that you can charm ine into being a lovesick fool, do you?”
If he truly were a lovesick fool, no matter how capable he was, his father would never have let him inherit the company.
With disgast in his eyes, he added, “Ophelia, every day I see you, I feel sick and sweaty, like I can’t wait to throw you out. That’s why we have never had sex since you had Reece and Brenda
He then added. “You thought that distancing yourself from me for that man would work, and you also thought I couldn’t be bothered to force myself on you, so I didn’t touch you. Let me tell you now: I want to vomit just looking at you, let alone touching you. Andd you divanced yourself from me for him, exactly as I wanted”
After saying this, he said coldly. “Can you see yourself clearly now!”
Seeing the shocked look on Ophelia’s face made Fisian felt much better
He had truly put up with enough over the years.
“From now on, you have nothing to do with any of us in the Hill family,” he said. “Cherish the days you’ll spend in the prison of the Special Force. When you get out, you can go back to your mother’s house, which you miss so much.”
If Ophelia was ever released, he wouldn’t waste his time on her anymore.
The wicked would meet their match.
Ophelia’s family members were all wicked people,
e, and so was she
After she was released, he would just let her suffer the way she deserved in her own family.
Ophelia’s whole body trembled with rage, and she collapsed onto the floor.
Tears welled up in her eyes, and this time, they weren’t fake. She couldn’t believe the blow she’d just received:
She had always thought Finnian loved her above all else.
But it turned out it was all a lie. He’d deceived her. This bastard she thought.
But be clearly loved her that much.
It was impossible for him to change
Even though the man she loved wasn’t him, Ophelia still wanted to be Finnian’s one and duly
So, she just couldn’t bear to hear those words.
Suddenly, she looked up at Phoebe. “Did you put a spell on my husband to make him like this!“
Phoelie was speechless for a second. “You know in your heart it’s true, so why bother making excuses You’re so double standard, Ophelia. You blame everyone but yourself. If you hadn’t schemed against Mr. Hill in the first place, would you be in this mess now? If you’re going to point fingers, inaybe you should start with yourself”
She then continued, “What? Do you all think you deserve a world that bends to your will, no matter the cost? But you don’t even look in the mirror. Do you really think you deserve it?”
Phoebe’s words hit the mark with Finnian. “Yeah, I don’t get it sometimes, Ophelia Where does all that confidence come from?“.
She made it sound like men would be mesmerized by her.
“When you’re in
re in prison, take a good book in the mirror. Maybe you’ll finally see who you really are.
Ophelia still couldn’t accept that Finnian–who had once loved her so much–had suddenly become so desperate to rid himself of her.
She cried, trying to grab las pant. “No, you can’t do this to me?”
Finnian quickly stepped back, avondling her touch. “This is your retribution. Stop struggling”
Ophelia looked up into his cold, unfeeling eyes, and instantly it felt like cold water had been poured over

Chapter 113
She didn’t understand why this was all a trick, or why Finnian didn’t love her anymore
Seeing this, Jamiel motioned for he men to step forward and seize Ophelia.
They both grabbed her by her arms and pulled her to her feet. ‘Ophelia, you are under arrest. Come with us to the Special Force for interrogation.
Ophelia continued to struggle, “No, I’m not going to the Special Force
She glanced at Finnian, trying what she thought was her most charming and pitiable look, silently begging him to save her.
But Finnin did nothing. In fact, his eyes were filled with disgust and disdain.
Ophelia had no choice but to turn to Seren. “Soren, I’m doing all of this for you. You have to save me
at a bool
you used? A tool to help you maintain your relationship with that man? A tool to
Soren’s eyes glinted with mockery. “All for me? Wasn’t I just a help you grab control of the Hill family fortune!”
He then continued. Im officially disowning you today. I never thought of that coward, that backstabber, as my father. Nor did I ever see you, a selfish woman, as my mother When I was a child, you left me in cold baths just so you could go off on a rendezvous with that man.”
“You should know. I might not live long, so you never truly invested your feelings in me. All that supposed ‘motherly love was with a sneer. “You’ve been fooling everyone, including yourself, with your little performance.”
Soren added. “You let me fall sick, left me in the care of a maid, and sent me to the hospital while you could go out to date with that man. I remember all of it. In your heart, I was nothing more than a pawn to be sacrificed whenever it suited you”
as just an
act!” he
He had felt it all since he was a child
Ophelia jerked her head up to face Soren, her expression one of disbelief. “You…
For a moment she couldn’t find the words to respond.
After all, when Soren was a child, she had used him for many things.
She never thought he would remember any of it, especially since he had never shown a hint of resentment before
The last shred of hope in her heart vanished.
She couldn’t accept these truths, and the weight of it all collapsed her.
She cried out in anguish. “You’re all wolves in sheep’s clothing! You’re all too cruel!”
She cursed again.
“You’re all monsters…. cold–blooded animals…
Soren’s voice dripped with sarcasm. “Cold–blooded Too cruel? I think we’re still not a patch on you and y your adulterer
He sighed, a trace of pity in his voice. “Honestly, of all the people you’ve been surrounded by, the only one who’s ever truly treated you like family in Reece. But what did you do? You pushed away the only person who ever cared for you. Krankly, you deserve it.”
Ophelia was looking for an offense, and Soren was happy to give her one.
Reece, standing off to the side, couldn’t help but think that he no longer want to be the only one to be sincere with Ophelia right now.
After all, Ophelia had fooled no one but him, which made him feel like the only fool in the whole family.
It was really uncomfortable,
Ophriu’s gaze flickered toward Kreer.
She will had Reece!
She struggled and lunged at Reece. “Reece, you have to help me. I love you the most. As long as you don’t let them take the away, we’ll leave, and I’ll
ir care of your from now on”
Reece immediately backed away, a butter smile tugging at his lips. “I was stupid before. Do you really think I’ll fall for it again! There’s no excuse for being wrong. We’ve already severed our relationships. Even if you truly repent, I can never forgive you. Our mother–son bond is irreparable”
At that moment, he suddenly understood why Phoebe had been so resolute to her family.
His heart ached even more, a mix of bitterness and shame.
Ophelia had done
done so much, and in the end, it was all for nothing.
He, too, had lost his beloved girl in his pursuit of his mother’s love.

tut the love be received from his mother was the most hollow of all..
From start to finish, you’re a joke” He closed his eyes. “So am I. That’s probably our fate, and we should never see or contact each other again. Just pretend I was never your son. You never raised me anyway”
With Ophelia’s nature, Reece knew he couldn’t give her even the slightest hope, or she’d haunt him forever.
If Ophelia had been a good mother, if she hadn’t hurt them like this, then no matter what, he would have taken on the responsibility of caring for her.
But for now, it was best for them to cut ties completely.
