Her words felt like a bolt of lightning from the sky.

For over two years, aside from the one instance where she borrowed money, Dakota had never asked. Josiah for money.

At this point, Josiah was completely dumbfounded,

Nicely done! That's the way to do it!

While the rest of the crowd was still in confusion, Isabella was silently celebrating. After all, in her eyes. Dakota had always been hopelessly in love, it was unexpected that once awakened, she suddenly knew how to protect her interests, "Y-You're asking me for money?" Josiah said, taken aback.

Hey, hey, hey, watch your words, all right? She's not asking for money, she's telling you to pay back what you owe!

"Why can't I ask you for money, when you've swindled it from me in the first place? Morally and legally. I'm entitled to claim it back. have no intention of taking advantage of you or coveting your wealth, but don't think you can take advantage of me either. I won't accept a penny more, I only want what's rightfully mine, said Dakota calmly.

Ugh, why didn't you ask for more? Like compensation for emotional distress or something! You deserve it!

Isabella was so excited that she could barely contain herself. With a hint of amusement, Alexander gently patted her back, silently helping her to calm down. Isabella seemed oblivious to the unusual gesture she had unconsciously grown accustomed to Alexander's touch. as if

Alexander could actually understand Dakota's approach. She didn't demand more compensation, she only wanted what was rightfully hers. It was her way of showing the ultimate respect for her contributions in that sham of a relationship.

Dakota's words naturally made Josiah's face sour. After all, due to Audrey's distortion of his view on love, he believed that a poor girl willing to spend money on him must truly love him. He had enjoyed all these, yet now that Dakota wanted to reclaim everything from the past, it felt as if she was completely withdrawing her initial affection, negating their love affair.

"All of that is insignificant, I can provide you with so much more. All my wealth will be shared with you, if only we could return to the way things were. You won't have to toil as a makeup artist, you can just stay at home and be my wife. I will cherish you, love you, take care of you. "

"Josiah, even after you were exposed, you still look down on me from your lofty position." Dakota suddenly said as realization dawned on her. "I remember now, during those two years when I struggled as a makeup artist's assistant, I always complained to you about not having good clients. I-If only you had once secretly used your status and resources to arrange a client for me, I wouldn't have had to work so hard to support you. It's clear that so many people around you knew about your lies. Was it that hard to play along with your charade? Was it that hard to make my life a bit easier? You wanted to test me. But you only enjoyed my sacrifices, coldly watching from the sidelines like a bystander. You never considered using your status to help me out even a little. Haha, Josiah, you lied, you don't love me at all, not one bit."

Dakota's realization came quite abruptly, almost as if it were a minor detail
