Chapter 1140 Deceptions and Lies

“What… What did you say?”

Shiela was utterly bewildered, struggling to grasp the situation. “You… You kidnapped me? Is this some kind of sick joke?”

“That’s correct, we all deceived you,” Nakamura admitted bluntly. “But you can attribute it to your own naivety. You lacked the discernment to separate truth from falsehood. A few casual remarks, and you took them to heart. Utterly gullible!”

“So… I misunderstood Dustin? I misjudged him?” Shiela quivered, tears brimming in her eyes, overwhelmed by profound regret.

She had never anticipated that the reality would be so different. She had believed that her cousin wouldn’t deceive her, that her closest friends wouldn’t betray her trust, and that Dustin was genuinely up to no good. Yet, Nakamura’s recent revelations made her suddenly realize that everything she had believed was a fabrication.

Garrett had duped her, her closest friends had lied to her, and only Dustin had been sincerely attempting to rescue her, to assist her. But she not only failed to recognize it but had even attempted to expel him from her household.

What had she been thinking? How could she have been so misled, so foolish?
