He said that the day he saw my injured leg, he regretted everything.
It was just that over all these years, everyone who saw him fawned and flattered him. He lived too long being worshipped and high above everyone else.
He was afraid that once he lowered his head, people would discover his weakness and mock him for being just an ordinary person after all.
I laughed softly. “No, don’t make yourself sound so noble.”
I looked at him coldly, exposing his lies.
“It’s not that you can’t swallow your pride for love. Haven’t you done plenty of shameless things for Vanessa?
“You just didn’t want to swallow your pride for me.
“And now you are—but not because you’ve realized you love me.
“You don’t know you were wrong. You’re just scared.
“You’re scared of losing the power and status you have now. That’s all.”
I really thought I was blind before.
Only now did I see clearly how fake the person in front of me really was.
I actually loved someone like this for 13 years.
How ridiculous.
Maybe all the suffering I went through was just God punishing me for

“No…”
Ryan’s face turned pale as he struggled to utter a syllable.
But he couldn’t argue back.
I leaned toward Derek like a spoiled child. “I’m tired.”

He immediately understood and dragged Ryan out, throwing him into the hallway.
He warned in a low voice, “Don’t come back!
“If you dare come again, I guarantee your family will be worse off than
now!”
After speaking, he ordered people to throw him out of the hospital.
Back in the room, he tucked me in and stayed by my side while I rested.
Maybe his warning worked, or maybe he strengthened the security.
Either way, I didn’t see Ryan again until I was discharged.
However, on the day I was discharged, Derek came to pick me up personally and told me about Ryan.
Ryan, Vanessa, and even the Mitchell family behind him–every single one of them was sent to prison.
Especially Ryan.
He was charged with repeatedly embezzling public funds to buy expensive gifts for Vanessa and was sentenced to life in prison.

Vanessa was also found to have stolen public funds frequently and often bullied people she didn’t like in private.
Several women had their faces slashed by people she hired just because they were a little too attentive to Ryan, all out of jealousy.
Ryan had just covered it up.
Now that Ryan had fallen, this matter was also dug up.
Vanessa was done for too. All her assets were recovered, and because she had repeatedly intentionally harmed military personnel, she committed a serious crime and was sentenced to life imprisonment.
When she heard the verdict, Vanessa was so scared she wet herself and fainted on the spot.
When she woke up, she was dazed and silly, as if she’d been scared crazy.
But no matter what, she couldn’t escape punishment.
Hearing this, I smiled indifferently. “After we get married, let’s move in with your grandfather and bring mine over too, so they can keep each other company.”
Our grandfathers were good friends with a close relationship.
Derek had been raised by his grandfather, too, so he nodded happily when he heard that. “Good!
“Grandfather likes you the most. He used to always praise you as the most promising child. He’ll be very happy to see you this time.”
I gripped his hand tightly.
The people I loved were all by my side.
