Chapter 19
Long–lost biological parents, in Iselle’s eyes, now seemed somewhat unfamiliar.
Her father, Maddox Branor, struggled to speak, his words caught in his throat. He could only manage to say dryly, “Come take a look, and, by the way, here’s some pocket money for you.”
If they hadn’t fallen out with Iselle, today would have become the in–laws of the Durrell family. But now it’s too late to regret, everything can’t go back to the way it was.
Linda couldn’t help but hold Iselle’s hand.
“Iselle, you saved your sister, and please beg Caelen for mercy, he will listen to you.”
“Could you please stop tormenting your sister?”
Iselle didn’t have time to speak before two pairs of hands reached out and separated the mother and daughter.
“Mom, what time is it? Why are you still speaking up for Delphine! Nolan looked miserable, “I’ve told you she’s been bullying Iselle, why don’t you
believe me.”
Linda’s face was full of sorrow: “But she was the one I raised…”
Asher held Iselle in his arms and said, “Whoever persecutes you, you
come to me.”
“If you are illegally imprisoned, I will find someone to help you report it, he said before turning around and leaving, leaving Linda’s sobbing

behind.”
After learning about Delphine’s ordeal, Iselle has been feeling uneasy, always having a sense of foreboding.

It wasn’t until she went out to buy a book and was pushed and shoved into a car by a group of people that the stone in her heart finally dropped.
She knew that Caelen would never let it go. The man’s specialty was holding a grudge.
When the car arrived at the warehouse by the sea, Caelen personally took her hand and led her inside.
“Forgive me Iselle, I couldn’t stand up now, I might be a little embarrassed.”
“What are you up to again? Iselle instinctively protected her stomach.”
“You were pregnant, Caelen’s dark eyes brewed a storm, “I couldn’t bear to hurt you, but he was willing.”
“How long have you known Iselle? You definitely haven’t thought it through. Once we’re abroad, I’ll help you get rid of this child.”
Iselle was surprised, “Are you going to sneak across the border?”
“Yeah, Caelen smiled, “Don’t worry, the Morven family has connections and will ensure your safety.”
“You were out of your mind.”
“Yes, I was crazy, I was crazy beyond redemption.”
“Iselle, it was you who saved me in the beginning, it was you who made a marriage promise with me. Now I know I was wrong, I love you, not
Delphine.”

“Give me one more chance, I don’t want to lose you.”
Iselle was full of absurdity. Perhaps Caelen did not lie. It’s just that his love was too terrifying.
She almost laughed out loud, “Caelen, do you think I’m a trash can? I accept all kinds of love.”
“Your love, in comparison, didn’t even measure up.”
“I have given you countless chances, it is you who did not want them.”
“Caelen, you’re out.”
Caelen’s pupils constricted as he pulled Iselle into his arms.
Just as the word “out” fell, a bullet whizzed through the air, piercing through Caelen’s left chest and embedding itself in Iselle’s shoulder.
Iselle didn’t have time to scream in pain before she was hugged by
someone.

Asher’s voice was trembling, “Help, someone help, save my Iselle.”
Iselle knew that this person was probably speaking out of panic and desperation.
After everything was settled, Iselle’s child was safely born in the winter. The Durrell family did not make a big fuss. They sat around together and had a reunion dinner.
Iselle never returned to the Branor family after that, and she also had no contact with her biological parents.
She felt a wave of sighs.
Last winter, she was still packing her bags, waiting to be kicked out by

Delphine.

This winter, everything in the Branor family has been left behind by her and has become a thing of the past.
Delphine finally won the divorce lawsuit and divorced Jayvon. She had been tortured to the point where she even lost her ability to conceive.
Caelen was buried beneath a nameless tombstone, with no one to brush away the frost and snow on his grave marker.
Iselle heard the door being knocked, and when she went out, she found a child’s motorcycle at the door.
Nolan said he was going to give her a car as a wedding gift, as if it happened just yesterday.
She smiled slightly and whispered to herself, “From now on, Iselle’s life is in her own hands.”
