Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress

Chapter 1814: So, will you just die for everyone’s sake?

"For you, who had been giving your all and making her death your goal, how did that feel?"

A moment of silence fell upon them as their eyes locked.

For Nathalie, who wanted nothing but to win a war against her sisters, it surely didn’t sit well that Naylani was conceding. That Naylani found something else more important than leading the Zorken Family or the Shadow Order.

It must have been a slap to her face.

"Isn’t that why... even when Naylani conceded, you still thought of ruining her life?" Zoren continued, his voice calm, but his words clear and sharp. "Because you cannot accept that... you’re the only one who wanted to win this war so badly. You didn’t win, Nathalie."

He shook his head. "You killed her and my father; lied to them and hurt them—but me, being here, only proves you didn’t outsmart Naylani."

Because, in the beginning, Nathalie believed Zoren was not truly Naylani’s son. That Zoren was just a child she swapped so she could hurt Naylani in a way she knew would devastate the latter.

Wasn’t that the reason Nathalie was compelled to lie to Zoren during the last moments of her first life? Because that was the only thing Nathalie could do to hurt them all.

"Naylani gave you a satisfying show to keep you full for years, and by doing so, protected her son, whom you thought was just somebody not worth your attention," he added, his voice dropping. "And you took the bait just the way she planned. So, between you and your sister, who was the fool?"

The smile on Nathalie’s face slowly faded until it was gone. For some reason, Naylani’s last moments flashed in her eyes, and the faint chuckle Naylani made before she finally took her last breath.

That laugh, that was full of mockery, which Nathalie thought was Naylani’s last retaliation.
