Chapter 648 The Main Culprit

"I clearly... I clearly love him so much," Lizzie burst into laughter as she said that.

Even though Rose had a slight suspicion earlier, she was still shocked when she heard it.

Lizzie loved Jonathan? But Lizzie was Jonathan's stepmother!

"Lizzie, shut up!"

This time, it wasn't Eleanor who told Lizzie to stop talking, but Cyrus.

Cyrus looked at Lizzie lying in the hospital bed. His eyes were filled with anger, disgust, and a mix of complex emotions. "You're insane! You lunatic!" he exclaimed.

He had already heard those words once before on the cliff that day.

Lately, he had been trying to avoid thinking about it. But at that moment, he finally understood that there were some truths he simply could not avoid.

He believed that Lizzie betrayed him by getting involved with Carl, and he thought it was because he was still hung up on Nancy. Her actions were either done as revenge against him or for her to seek emotional respite.

But the reality was that Lizzie's thoughts were always centered on Jonathan.

Cyrus sighed.

"A lunatic?" Lizzie laughed even more wildly. "I am a lunatic!"

Lizzie didn't care about Cyrus' or Eleanor's thoughts about her.

She knew they were extremely disgusted with her, believing she was unworthy of loving Jonathan and thinking her affection for him was disgraceful and contemptible.

Whether she loved someone or not wasn't something she could control.

She couldn't even be bothered to glance at Eleanor or Cyrus.

Lizzie gazed steadily at Rose as if wanting to share something with her. "I love him more than any of you. Ever since I first saw him all those years ago...
