Yvonne lowered her gaze and said, “I tried hard to find out about him, but by the time I did, he was already seeing Ines. Therefore, I could only silently watch him from afar, never daring to approach him again. It was only when I heard that he was studying abroad without Ines that I dared to appear before him again.”

Upon hearing this, Isabella found the whole thing ridiculous.

So… what level of love–struck brain is this? Uh… it’s q striving to stay in the same school… not many people can go this far for their secret crush.

spiring, really. Studying hard for a man, saving money,

The Quirk family, who had been quietly observing, found themselves somewhat admiring Yvonne. Had she really pursued him all the way abroad?

Alexander raised an eyebrow. During that period, he hadn’t heard of anyone new appearing by Aiden’s side. Instead, Aiden seemed to be constantly flying off to find Ines, as if he was stricken with a case of unrequited love.

Back then, Aiden’s favorite saying was that a day apart felt like an eternity.

At that moment, it seemed as though Ines was also reminiscing about that period of time.

Back then… it wasn’t that she deliberately broke their agreement. It was because she had fallen ill, and her family had decided to secretly take her elsewhere for treatment. That’s why she didn’t attend school with Aiden as planned. However, Aiden still ended up following her later on.

Back then, Aiden’s feelings were so sincere, how could he possibly fall for someone else just because she wasn’t by his side?

Could it be that he had learned about her situation back then, and that was why he had wavered?

Ines didn’t want to think this way, yet she couldn’t help but feel inferior.

Yvonne’s memories were like a slow knife to Ines, and at this moment, the knife was nearly piercing her heart.

“Back then, they hadn’t broken up, had they?” Elijah asked, puzzled.

Yvonne, however, gave a bitter smile and said, “I only found out after I went there, but I also learned some news at the same time.”

The tone of Yvonne’s voice suddenly shifted, leaving Elijah startled. “What?”

“So, it turns out that Aiden being with Ines was entirely due to your family elders forcing him, all with the goal of forming an alliance through marriage with the Deleon family. You all treated him as a tool in this marital alliance, robbing him of his freedom and right to happiness.” Yvonne spoke as if she was deeply pained for Aiden, even casting resentful glances at Elijah.

What arranged marriage? What coercion? So, Yvonne’s words to Ines last time really meant this? How did she come to hear about it? How did she figure it out?

When the Quirk family heard this, they found it utterly hilarious. They thought that if Aiden really wanted to deceive someone, there was absolutely no need to go to such great lengths. Têxt © .

Even they, as outsiders, could occasionally perceive the sweet, simple happiness shared between the two, which seemed too genuine to be just an act.

At the very least, did Aiden really need to put on a show? He couldn’t even be bothered to play the dutiful son to his own father, let alone return to the Burke family unless absolutely necessary. Could he really be

threatened?

Was Yvonne actually deceiving Elijah, or was she just deluding herself?

Alexander already thought Yvonne was delusion rhaps at the very beginning, she was unwilling to accept it. Hearing the malicious speculations of others, she found justification and excuses for her unethical attempts to pursue someone else’s boyfriend.

After all, outside the world of the wealthy, some people loved to gossip and speculate. They imagined everything to revolve around personal gain as if everyone was merely a tool for forming advantageous alliances.

Upon hearing this, Ines felt even more bewildered. Yvonne spoke with such certainty, could it be…

Reflecting on this, Ines was still vehemently shaking her head. Even though her trust in Aiden was on the brink of shattering, she couldn’t help but believe in the sincerity that person had for her.

Perhaps it was just a momentary lapse in attention for Yvonne. Maybe Aiden was just a bit concerned about her situation. Perhaps…

One could argue that, had Ines been completely healthy, she wouldn’t have harbored such self– doubt.

In the end, it was a series of unexpected events and misunderstandings that gradually eroded her confidence and innocence.

Faced with Yvonne’s explanation, Elijah was left speechless. After all, he spent little time at home, so how was he supposed to know what was really going on?

Indeed, the Burke family was very keen on forming an alliance through marriage with the Deleon family. Given their past interactions, the two families had already collaborated on many projects. The Deleon family had even made several concessions. It could be said that the Burke family was determined to see this union through, to the point where even if Aiden wanted to break up now, it wouldn’t be possible.
