The Broken-hearted She And The Icy He (Lily and John) novel Chapter 105

Chapter 105 No More Chances.

+5 Free Cons

Lily thought, John is the young master to the prestigious Jones family, one of the wealthiest in the Capital city. If Elias ever offended him by accident, John could easily get him fired.

John was powerful–and ruthless. I couldn’t help but worry Elias might end up getting hurt.

Elias genuinely cared about me as a friend. I couldn’t be the kind of person who dragged him into trouble.

“I already blocked him. He probably won’t bother me again. Elias, get back to work. We’ll talk later tonight!”

James actually was very busy that day.

But any man, no matter how busy he is, will always find time to text if he cares enough.

The truth was, he didn’t want to stop texting her. He wanted to see her keep sending messages, rambling about her day.

But she had already said goodbye for now, and it was obvious she had other things to do. So he replied calmly, “Alright. Don’t forget your meds. Eat well, drink plenty of water, and take good care of yourself. Talk to you tonight.”

Eat well, drink water….

Lily hugged her phone and rolled around on the bed.

Texting Elias just made my day.

Today is definitely going to be a good one.

After staying in bed for a bit, she lazily opened the news apps like she usually did.

She thought her account would be banned forever. But to her surprise, not only was it unbanned, she even received a formal apology from the platform.

The entire internet vibe had shifted.

Now everyone was calling Mathilda a liar and a shameless fake. People were apologizing to Lily, sending words of sympathy and regret.

Lily wasn’t naive enough to openly scold the netizens who had once cursed her out, but deep down, she couldn’t accept their apologies.

After all, when someone hurts you and then tosses out a casual “sorry,” it really doesn’t mean anything.

She had also seen the two videos making the rounds online.

James had actually managed to get the one full video she never even dreamed of getting her hands on.

And Nancy? She posted a public statement, standing up for me and pushing back against the Ginger family.

Reading that statement brought tears to Lily’s eyes again.

Chapter 105 No More Chances

I really like Nancy. Like, genuinely.

And I was grateful to James–even if I knew in my heart he was only helping me now because the elders had asked him

1. to.

The Ginger brothers had obviously seen the full video too.

But they still chose to defend Mathilda.

Their statement admitted that Mathilda stepping on my face wasn’t right, but insisted she had reasons. They claimed I had repeatedly mistreated Mathilda, and that’s why she lashed out.

They said Mathilda would always be their most beloved sister and they’d protect her no matter what.

Most people online stayed rational. They agreed that stepping on someone’s face was unacceptable, no matter the

reason.

They also said Mathilda was wrong to mislead the public and make me look like some evil imposter who stole someone else’s life.

Still, the Ginger brothers held a lot of sway.

Especially Taylor, the A–list actor with a massive fanbase.

His fans followed his lead and began defending Mathilda, which helped dilute the criticism. She didn’t even lose many followers.

To be honest, reading their statements felt laughable.

Because when you really care about someone, their betrayal cuts the deepest.

But thankfully, I was already beyond disappointed with the Ginger family.

So when they stood by Mathilda again, blindly and without question, it didn’t make me sad anymore.

It just made me nauseous.

And bitter.

-I didn’t do anything wrong, yet during the brightest years of my life, I was bullied for six months–by the very people I

thought were my family.

I don’t forget things easily.

I’m just not strong enough right now to fight them.

But if I ever become powerful enough, I’ll make them pay back every ounce of what they owe me. With interest.

John had been waiting outside the City Hall since early morning.

He knew Lily had always dreamed of being his bride.
