Free Web NovelChapter 635: Chapter 635: This Is His Retribution!
He thought he was strong, that he wouldn’t bow down to a woman...
But his stubbornness ultimately led to the news of her being critically ill...
No one knew if he visited her on the day she passed away.
She said she would never forgive the man who took away her freedom for life, and her last plea was for him to give her a divorce agreement.
He laughed... laughed maniacally, his heart dying along with it,
From the beginning, his love for her seemed like a joke!
After Amber left, within a short month, he seemed to age decades, wrinkles climbing onto his face, and his once black hair turning completely grey.
And his life, as if after she left, turned grey, losing all color.
Over the years, he kept trying to find ways to divert his attention, to mask his inner guilt... until he met the then-young Autumn Duval, whose face bore an uncanny resemblance to Amber’s, causing him, not yet recovered from the grief and defeat of Amber’s death, to entertain a thought incomprehensible to others...
But until now, he suddenly awoke, looking back at what he had done over the years, he suddenly felt like he was a mindless madman...
If Amber saw him now, she would probably hate and loathe him even more...
But until now, he suddenly began to imagine, if his attitude had been less impulsive, less ruthless back then, perhaps... Amber would still be alive now.
At least she would still be alive, even if she never had him in her heart, it wouldn’t matter.
It’s such a pity... there’s no ’if’ in this world.
...
After Mr. Drexler finished speaking, Autumn Duval’s face turned pale, she suddenly turned around, reached out to grab Mr. Drexler’s clothes, and looked at him emotionally.
"Uncle, you can’t do this. You gave me hope, why do you now cruelly take everything away?"
Her eyes looking at Mr. Drexler were filled with unwillingness.
Why, when he was the one who brought her to The Drexler Family, does he now abandon her just like that...
Looking at Autumn Duval’s agitated appearance, Mr. Drexler sighed softly and then said,
"I will arrange a good future for you. Although you cannot become the First Lady of The Drexler Family, given your connections with the family, I believe you can find a good place."
This was his last concession to her, solely because of her similar face to Amber.
After Mr. Drexler finished speaking, Autumn Duval stood in despair.
The next second, she shook her head sharply and said frantically,
"No... you can’t do this, not letting me marry Night is no different than killing me!"
Mr. Drexler wasn’t surprised at all by Autumn Duval’s reaction.
Although she always disguised and hid her nature well in front of him, he was actually aware of her little moves over the years.
It was just that because of her face, which was similar to Amber’s, he couldn’t bear to be harsh with her, all stemming from his inner regret towards Amber.
But now... he had awakened and saw clearly.
Autumn Duval is Autumn Duval, and Amber is Amber. Other than having a similar face, they have nothing in common!
And the debt and guilt he had towards Amber in this lifetime could only remain buried in his heart, never relieved.
This was his retribution!
