Chapter 1227:

Lacey’s heart sank further, having believed Jake and Kallie would focus on their grievance and eventually realize the true nature of Lacey and Clayton after noting the inconsistency. Yet, they didn’t.

Kallie and Jake seemed to have made everything clear with their limited questions about confirming each other’s feelings. Their understanding didn’t need explicit questions. It lived in the quiet spaces between them. For them, knowing the other’s love remained unwavering was more than enough. Their connection defied barriers, a testament to the invincibility of their love. No scheme or force seemed capable of pulling them apart.

Lacey, watching from the shadows, felt her bitterness grow, her gaze hardening with venom. Could such love truly weather every storm? She refused to believe it. If manipulation couldn’t tear them apart, then perhaps death might.

What began as hesitation had festered into full-blown resolve. Seeing their unshakable devotion only fueled Lacey’s rage, snuffing out every last shred of reason.

Disgrace no longer mattered to Lacey. Only vengeance remained. Though once hesitant to carry out her plot with Clayton, she now eagerly waited for the right moment to proceed.
