Chapter 351


    “Knock it off, Elio! Can you let me go?”


    When she heard that Emmett was looking for her, her heart seemed to suddenlye alive again. She


    didn’t want to wait any longer; she wanted to see Emmett right now.


    But then, Elio burst outughing, “You don’t actually think Emmett’s looking for you to give you a happy


    life, do you? Check this out.”


    He handed her his phone.


    On it was the rumor about ra and Elio.


    ra was shocked, “What is this? You and I… how could…”


    “This is Leah’s doing. If I didn’t do it, she would kill my parents. This news caused quite a stir, so


    Emmett must’ve seen it! Do you think he, a man who’s lived afortable life since he was born,


    would ept being betrayed?”


    ra clenched her fists in anger and said, “Elio, how could you do this to me? I trusted you, and this is


    what I get!”


    “I’m sorry. You can me me all you want. I ept it. But I really had no other choice! If you were in


    my shoes, what would you do? I couldn’t just sit back and watch my parents die, could I?”


    ra was stunned. She found herself unable to speak.


    After a long while, her shoulders slumped in despair as she asked, “Is this photo real?”


    “What?”


    “Did you and I… did we really…?”


    Elio opened his mouth to speak, but no words came out.


    At that moment, ra felt like she could hear the sound of her sanity shattering.


    Everything was ruined.


    Everything she had was ruined.

    Elio sensed her distress and quickly tried to calm her down, “Cool it!”


    “Cool it?” ra suddenly looked up at him, her eyes zing with fury, “How can I cool it? Elio, how


    could you do this to me? Are you trying to drive me to suicide? Fine, I’ll do just that!”


    With that, she reached for the car door.


    Fortunately, Elio was quick to react and stopped her.


    “Are you out of your mind? We’re on a highway; if you jump out now, it’s game over!”


    “Do you think I want to live anymore?”


    “…But what about your two kids?”


    ra froze.


    “Aren’t you worried that Leah will take your ce and abuse your two sons?” Elio was genuinely afraid


    she would do something reckless, so he hurriedly added.


    Mentioning Aiden and Alex, ra started to worry.


    “Knowing Leah, she would definitely harm the two kids! If she ends up having Emmett’s baby, then


    Aiden and Alex are screwed. And she’s so good at pretending, Leah won’t be exposed easily,”


    Seeing her starting to calm down a bit, Elio immediately clung to her clothes. “I know I messed up. You


    can yell at me; you can even hit me. If you feel bad, you can cry, but please don’t do anything reckless,


    okay? You can punish me however you want; just don’t hurt yourself!”


    After a while, ra suddenlyughed, but it was a sorrowfulugh.


    “Everything you say is for my benefit! Elio, I should be thanking you!”


    Elio had never seen Clára like this before; her gaze frightened him. “Don’t say that, I beg you! I’m not a


    human, and I’m heartless and ungrateful; I deserve to be punished. Hit me!” With that, Elio grabbed her


    hand and smacked it against his face.
