From Ruin She Rose novel Chapter 406

Chapter 406

“So it’s all because of me? You guys are blaming everything on me?” Lydia laughed, her voice thick with mockery.

Now that everything was out in the open, Lydia saw no reason to keep pretending. Her face twisted with malice. “I admit that my system can bewitch people, but it can’t control your hearts.

“If you guys truly trust Emily, would I have ever had a chance? Charles and Bob are the best proof. It was your lack of faith in Emily that gave me the opening I needed.”

Lydia’s words stripped away the Bennett family’s last pretense, leaving them exposed and humiliated.

Vincent looked the most grim of all. He shouted, “Shut up!”

He slapped Lydia hard across the face and added, “This is all your fault. If it weren’t for you, Emily and I would still be together, and I wouldn’t have… You destroyed us!” He glared at Lydia angrily.

Lydia had never been treated like this by Vincent before, and a wave of anger surged up inside her. But before she could let it out, Vincent’s next words cut her off. “I’ll make you pay for this myself!”

Lydia froze, watching Vincent, who had once doted on her, now looking at Emily with a cautious, almost ingratiating gaze. Vincent said, “Emily, I’ll make her pay for what she did to you myself.”

Lucas let out a cold snort. “It’s none of your business.”

Andrew nodded in agreement. “This is our family matter, Vincent. No need to trouble yourself.”

Gale and Emma looked at Emily, full of remorse. “Emily, we were all deceived. Don’t worry. We’ll do our best to make it up to you.”

Vincent, who was closest, grabbed Lydia by the hair without hesitation and yanked her back hard. “You’re not going anywhere!”

Tears sprang to Lydia’s eyes from the pain as she could only watch the Bennett Family block her escape and glared at her with fury and hatred in their eyes.
