Chapter 249: You Were Always Right
There was a silence on Natalie’s end, but she wasn’t as shocked as she might have expected.

"No. There’s something you still don’t know, but you should," Ivan said. "The people you trusted aren’t what you think they are. You don’t know how they’ve been deceiving you."

But you betrayed me by marrying another man and humiliated me and my family. For that, you owe me, but I never asked you for anything in return. Today, I’m asking you—what you owe me, you have to repay by granting my mother’s freedom. I give you my word, just this once.
