Chapter 435


    She had heard rumors of Zane fooling around with women outside. However, she never expected him


    to dare to bring a woman back home, let alone on the day when she headed off overseas!


    How heartless of him!


    “You can suffer all you want. However, do you think that it’s worth it to suffer for his sake?”


    Upon asking this question, Nicole shot a look at Rocky.


    He understood that it was time for him to act. Striding forward, he was about to approach Sylvia when


    she suddenly yelled, “I’ll tell you everything! Zane, since you’ve decided to be this heartless, don’t


    me me for being equally as cruel too!”


    “That’s the smart thing to do. My dad can even betray my mom, who’d helped him in building his


    career. Who are you to him?”


    Clenching her fists, Sylvia suddenlyughed.


    “You can call me pitiful, but I’m not. At least, I’m not ignorant of everything that is going on. Your mother


    is the greatest fool and the most pitiful woman of all!”


    A cold gleam appeared in Nicole’s eyes. “Tell me about the car ident!”


    “Truthfully, your mom didn’t kill Julia from the Seet family. It was your dad!”


    ring at her, Nicole listened carefully.


    Evan, who was hidden outside the door, perked up his ears too.


    So, Nicole already knows about this.


    Her main objective of going overseas was to investigate this matter.

    Nevertheless, why didn’t she tell me of it?


    Why did she refuse to allow me to follow her? She’d allowed Rocky to tag along!


    Does she think that Rocky is more trustable than me? Or is it because they’re closer?


    Evan suddenly felt upset.


    In the room, Sylvia ryed forth, “Back then, after knocking someone down, Zane was left in utter


    shock. His first instinct was to drive away. However, your Mom stubbornly refused to allow him to


    escape. She really loved Zane. She insisted that if he’d gotten caught for the hit-and-run, the


    consequences would be more severe. It would even damage his reputation. Hence, she took the


    initiative to change seats with Zane, willingly taking his ce at the driver’s seat so that the police


    would catch her instead.”


    She shot a nce at Nicole before continuing, “She’s lucky that no one passed by the ident scene


    for a long time. By then, your Dad had already recovered from his fright. He started to use you as


    leverage, saying that it would be a tragedy for you to have lost your mother. As she thought of you,


    your mom’s resolve wavered, as she did not want to abandon you. After much deliberation, she


    sumbed to Zane’s persuasion and drove away.”


    By then, Nicole was already in utter shock. Without stopping, Sylvia exined, “This became your


    Mom’s greatest regret. Shouldering the burden of someone else’s life, she was always gued by a


    deep sense of guilt. On the other hand, Zane wished for nothing more than to erase this incident from


    his memories and pretend that it had never urred. However, as your Mom continued to mention it,


    triggering him in turn, his rtionship with her worsened. If it were not for your Mom’s foolishness,


    Zane would not have decided to marry me. Sylphiette is only two years younger than you. I’d already


    gotten together with your Dad a long time ago. Initially, Zane was afraid that your mom would discover


    our rtionship, butter on…”


    Sylviaughed, but her tone was mixed with a hint of despair.


    “Later on, he’d wanted to use this to infuriate your Mom, making her so angry that she would die. He’d


    wanted her to bring the secret to the grave, hoping that no one would mention it anymore. Indeed, after


    your Mom came to learn of my rtionship with Zane, she was greatly affected by it. Her depression


    worsened and her health took a huge hit. She was so overwhelmed by despair that it was like her living


    soul had been sucked out of her. Think about it. If you’re unable to see any hope in life anymore, would


    you still have been able to live for long?”


    Nicole’s eyes turned bloodshot. My Mom was really foolish!


    She left her family for Zane’s sake and was even willing to die for him. Yet, what did she get in return?


    Zane had already betrayed her long ago. After exploiting her, he yearned for her to die as soon as


    possible.


    The more inferior a woman’s love made her, the more heartless and bold the man would be!


    I must remember this lesson— one that had cost me my mother’s life!


    Upon having heard what she had wanted to know, Nicole left immediately, not wanting to remain any


    longer.


    Rocky followed beside her. ncing at her gloomy expression, he sighed.


    “Don’t be too upset, Nicole.”


    Nicole turned around and looked at him. “I’m not upset. There’s no use in wallowing in sorrow, anyway.


    My mom probably doesn’t want to see me being sad too. I must transform my sadness into motivation


    so that I’ll be able to do more meaningful things.”


    For example, seeking justice for Mom.
