Over four years of waiting. Over four years of longing. It had driven Sean to the edge of madness. So this time, even if he had to tie her up and drag her home, he was never letting her go again.
Lily thought Sean had truly lost his mind.
She could admit–James didn’t like her.
But the Ginger family? That wasn’t her home.
It was hell.
Just as she was about to speak, Ivan stepped forward and kicked Sean straight in the shin. “Sean, when people say you’re sick in the head, they’re not kidding! Your whole family treated Lily like trash, and you still expect her to apologize? Do yourself a favor and read the news for once–actually, never mind. I’ll just show you the video.”
Ivan knew that even if he told Sean to go look it up online, the guy probably wouldn’t bother. So he pulled out the same video he’d shown Simon and the others yesterday and played it for them on the spot.
Sean and the other two finally saw it clearly–it wasn’t Lily who had driven drunk and hurt someone. It was Wendy who had maliciously attacked her and tried to frame her.
Only now did Sean notice the bandage on Lily’s arm.
Realizing she’d barely survived the crash, was still on an IV drip, and he’d come storming in without knowing the full story–his heart twisted until it felt like it had been crushed into ash.
He took a step closer, eyes red. “Lily, I was wrong. I didn’t know you were the victim. From now on, I’ll take care of you, protect you. When you’re discharged, come home with me, okay?”
He had been the one to meet her first.
If she were to marry anyone, it should have been him–Sean–not James.
He’d spent years denying it, convincing himself it was wrong to feel that way about his adopted sister. But desire had bloomed into obsession, eating at him like poison. No matter how hard he tried to look away, to forget her–he couldn’t.
Eventually, he’d had no choice but to surrender to his heart.
To admit that he wanted her.
Madly, desperately wanted her.
So he had to trap her by his side, bind her to him, until she had no room left in her heart or eyes for anyone else.
Bodger and Taylor had also finished watching the video. Seeing the truth and the inju made their pupils contract and their chests tighten with guilt.
Lily’s arm
Both of them rushed to speak.

Chapter 207 No One to Blame But Yourselves
“Lily, we didn’t know it was Wendy who set you up. We were wrong. We shouldn’t have blamed you without knowing the facts. We’ll stay here and take care of you until you’re healed, and when you’re better -we’ll all go home together.”
“I was wrong too. Everyone’s right–once you’re better, come home with us. You and James are getting divorced anyway. Let’s set things right. Mathilda belongs with him. You never loved james, and Mathilda really cares about him. I hope you’ll step aside for her. You owe her that much”
Owe Mathilda…?
Lily thought the Ginger family really had a talent for telling jokes.
She laughed so hard tears sprang from her eyes.
いい
When the laughter finally faded, she stared coldly at the three Ginger brothers, then at Mathilda–who was still putting on her pitiful act, gazing longingly at James.
“Mathilda going missing all those years ago? That had something to do with Jerome, Luna and the three of you. You didn’t take care of her, you let a child wander off, and instead of taking responsibility for it, all you ever say is that I owe her? How shameless can you get? And now you want to ‘set things right‘ so she can end up with James? Do you think we’ve all forgotten how she cried and screamed about not wanting to marry him? It was only because she refused to marry a vegetable that Luna went looking for me to take her place. She wouldn’t face hardship with him, but the moment he woke up, she started coveting the Luke family’s wealth? The sheer hypocrisy of you people is disgusting.”
“I didn’t-”
Mathilda rushed to deny it, tears already streaming down her face. “I love James! I would’ve married him even if he stayed a vegetable. I only gave him up because you insisted on marrying him, and I didn’t want to fight you. I—”
“Stop. Just stop.”
