Chapter 151


    Jason stole a nce at Eleanor, who had already averted her gaze. A wave of pain surged through his


    body, causing him to stagger. “You’re being so heartless to me because you’ve fallen in love with


    Bernard, is that it?” he uttered, his voice filled with agony. “Eleanor, I’ve loved you for half of my life.


    How could you do this to me?!” His words were a mix of desperation and disbelief.


    Suddenly, resentment flooded Jason’s eyes, directed both at Eleanor’s cruelty and her affection for


    someone else.


    Eleanor looked at Jason, clenched her fists, and gritted her teeth, “Yes, I fell in love with him. You know


    what I’m like when I love someone. Since I love him, I won’t show mercy to anyone else. Can you


    please just let me go?”


    Upon hearing this, Jason felt cold all over, and his body trembled uncontrobly. Filled with fury, he


    rushed to Eleanor, grabbed her chin, and kissed her forcefully.


    His kiss was forceful and possessive, reminiscent of their past encounters. However, whereas Eleanor


    would have reciprocated in the past, now she remained unresponsive. Jason reluctantly released her,


    observing the icy coldness and disdain reflected in her eyes. His heart turned to ice.


    “Eleanor, you will regret this…” he muttered, leaving her with those words. Leaning against the wall for


    support, he stumbled away, his figure disying the aftermath of severe emotional wounds.

    As she watched Jason’s broken form retreat, tears welled up in Eleanor’s eyes, a mixture of sorrow and


    regret.


    Seeing her like this, Hailey was puzzled. If she couldn’t let go, why was she treating Jason this way?


    “Eleanor, are you still holding a grudge for when he kicked you?”


    Eleanor shook her head, “I’m not mad at him anymore. He didn’t do that.”


    Without waiting for Hailey’s next question, Eleanor told her about Jason having an identical twin


    brother,


    Hailey’s heartache was eased, as her longstanding grudges also faded.


    It turned out that Jason’s elder brother was the one who hurt Eleanor. Garett’s amnesia was real, and


    he hadn’t lied to them.


    It seemed she didn’t care for Garett in vain. However…


    Her eyes filled with doubt as she questioned, “So why are you still treating him like this?”


    Eleanor took–a–deep breath, preparing to disclose herte–stage cancer to Hailey. However, before


    she could utter a word, a call interrupted her.


    “Eleanor, hold on a moment, Austin is calling. Let me answer it.”


    Eleanor had no choice but to remain silent. When Hailey ended the call, her expression revealed


    concern, prompting Eleanor to inquire, “What happened?”


    “Austin said there was an emergency back home, and he needs to return.” Hailey, known for her


    honesty, shared the truth with Eleanor.


    Without hesitation, Eleanor swiftly responded, “Then don’t stay with me. Go with him to assess the


    situation.”


    However, Hailey surprised Eleanor by choosing to sit down beside her bed instead of hastily leaving.


    “Austin said it’s just a family debt. He’ll go back, pay it off ande back. I don’t need to go with him,


    More like he didn’t want to take her home.


    Eleanor watched Hailey peeling an orange, wanting to say something but not sure how to start.


    Now that they were married, she was worried about affecting their rtionship.


    When Hailey finished peeling the orange, she noticed Eleanor’s hesitation and smiled at her, “I know


    what you’re worried about. Don’t be afraid. I’ll handle it myself. It’s just that they won’t let me go back to


    Austin’s hometown. It’s not a big deal.”


    With a casual expression, she handed a piece of orange to Eleanor, “Here, have some orange to


    replenish your vitamins.”
