Chapitre 183: Love and Betrayal

"Maybe I'm just foolish! I've warned myself thousands, no, millions of times, but when you stood up for me at the Carter family's event, I fell in love with you." For the first time, Lily confessed her feelings to Ethan. Still, her tone was eerily calm, devoid of emotion, as if she were stating something that had nothing to do with her.

Ethan froze, "Lily Anderson..."

Did she have to say that she loved him under these circumstances?

Something felt off... It was as though she was summarizing everything as if this wasn't a confession but the closing of a chapter. The atmosphere didn't feel like the emotional moment one would expect when a woman confessed her love to a man.

This feeling left him with an inexplicable sense of dread.
