The Perfect Heiress’ Biggest Sin Novel

Chapter 23 After the wedding , the guests trickled out , leaving only a few people behind in the hall .

Evan was still slumped on the floor .

The bandages around his chest were soaked through with blood .

Yet , it seemed like he didnt feel the pain .

His eyes were vacant as he stared blankly ahead .

Joselyn had changed out of her wedding dress .

She now wore a simple white dress .

She walked over to Evans side with a medical kit in hand and placed it gently in front of him .

Your clothes are soaked in blood .

You should clean yourself up , she said , her voice calm but distant .

Evan slowly lifted his head .

Pain and regret filled his eyes .

Josie , do you really … not love me anymore ? joselyn didnt answer .

Her gaze was steady as she looked down at him .

Evan felt like his heart was being crushed .

The pain was so intense that he could hardly breathe .

Joselyn spoke in a whisper , From now on , dont come to Willesden .

We wont see each other again .

His face turned pale as his voice trembled .

Must you do this , Josie ? Joselyn didnt respond , simply turning to leave .

Evan suddenly grabbed her wrist .

Josie , do you really love him ? Or … is this just to get back at me ? Joselyn paused for a moment .

After several seconds of silence , she softly replied , I truly love him , Evan .

Only a fool would use someone else for revenge .

Evans hand fell away .

He felt like his soul had been ripped out .

After Joselyn left , he sat there and stared blankly ahead .

His mind was in turmoil .

Joselyns words echoed in his ears .

I truly love him .

His friends approached and patted him on his shoulder .

Dont do this to yourself , Evan .

At least you tried .

Evan didnt respond .

He lowered his head to stare at his hands .

His eyes were filled with pain and regret .

He knew hed lost her .

Hed lost the Joselyn whod once only had eyes for him .

And it was all his own doing .

1/1 Two years later , on a sunny afternoon in Willesden , light poured through the curtains and into the room .

Joselyn held her newborn daughter , her face soft with tenderness .

Jarrett sat beside her , gently holding her hand .

His eyes were filled with affection .

Josie , look .

She looks just like you , Jarrett murmured with a smile in his voice .

Joselyn looked down at her daughter and gently brushed her small face .

Yeah , her eyes are like yours , and her nose is like mine .

Just then , the doorbell rang .

Jarrett stood up to answer it , only to find a delicate gift box with a card attached .

He picked up the card and glanced at it .

His expression immediately turned complicated .

He walked back into the room and handed the box to joselyn .

Josie , this is from Evan .

Joselyn , paused for a moment before taking the box .

She opened it to find a document inside .

Her eyes widened as she flipped through it .

It was a 100 % stock transfer agreement for Lloyd Group .

She picked up the card and read the short message .

I promised Id surprise you for your birthday .

Its been two years , and I still havent kept that promise .

The stocks are the gift I want to give you now .

Below the transfer agreement is the gift I meant to give you two years ago .

Could you take a look ? Joselyn didnt bother looking at it .

She tossed the card and box into the trash .

The wind blew across the box , revealing a ring inside .
