Chapter 398
I was very curious at that time why that girl didn’t appear by his side. It’s possible that my older brother, being older, understood my importance and wanted to repay my family, so he let it go.
But later, Caitlyn became Leland’s new love, and I even naturally assumed that this girl was the one by his side. However, I was wrong. Caitlyn’s various compromises made me realize that I had been mistaking the person all along.
I took a deep breath, closed my eyes and then opened them, I was not feeling well at all.
“I always thought that Leland was the big boy I saw at my grandparents’ house, but I was wrong, very wrong! Emmett, do you remember when I wanted you to be my brother and have my parents adopt you, and you refused? Was that you? And the girl who was with you at that time, was she Maggie?”
Emmett nodded, “Yes, Maggie and I relied on each other, growing up in the orphanage, and we haven’t seen each other since you angrily left.”
Maggie regretted deeply, but at that time, I hated your heartlessness so much, even when you were 10 years old and your parents had a car accident, I witnessed the whole process with my own eyes but was powerless, I only took it as the price of your heartlessness.
Emmett’s words left me feeling flustered, and I kept repeating the phrases he used, “witnessed it firsthand, helpless, the cost of heartlessness.” Emmett, are you saying that you saw someone vandalize the scene of my parents’ car accident, and even know why the accident happened?
Emmett still had his back turned to me, and he neither spoke nor argued.
I was on the verge of another breakdown.”Does Emmett know why I haven’t posed a threat to Caitlyn all this time? It’s because I know Caitlyn was the girl by that big boy’s side back then.”
The incident involving my parents happened, and at that time, he was taking on the responsibility of the Perez Group and everything related to me. It have always felt guilty towards that girl, so I have been carrying guilt towards Caitlyn repeatedly.
