F1 Champion's Perfect Crash: When Love Takes The Final Turn novel Chapter 23

The moment I acted, Jacob's attitude, which had softened due to my cold face, completely erupted.

He strode towards me, snatched my suitcase, and smashed it against the floor.

The clothes scattered everywhere.

As he walked over, his leather shoes flattened the meat pie on the floor. I gritted my teeth, staring at his feet.

"Aurelia, my patience has limits. Don't drag innocent people into our business!"

My hands trembled as I stood frozen in place.

Bella's eyes reddened, tears welling up as she looked at me innocently.

"I'm sorry, Aurelia. I just checked those flight tickets, I was planning to go pick him up, I didn't expect..."

As she spoke, her tears fell drop by drop, hitting the floor and mixing with the meat filling.

"I was just worried Mr. Sterling was being deceived, after all, the Sterling family is special. There are too many cases of people using children to trap wealthy families into marriage, I..."

She looked at Jacob, biting her lip and shaking her head.

My gaze grew colder, and when I spoke, my voice held no warmth at all.

"Jacob, you also think I'm deceiving you?"

He didn't speak, but his expression was answer enough.

My father's medical records were real, from the local hospital.

I had accompanied him for the checkup just six months ago - there was no way to fake that.

So Bella had focused her attention on my father's travel tickets.

He indeed hadn't taken a plane.

How could he afford such expensive plane tickets?

To save money for my dowry, he had endured a thirty-hour train journey while battling illness.

All just to attend his daughter's wedding that didn't even exist.

But even for just one line of dialogue, Jacob chose to break his promise rather than act with me.

Thinking carefully, he had never reciprocated my feelings. Our ending was predetermined from the moment we met.

I searched for evidence of his love in every detail of our interactions, deceiving myself.

Everything remained peaceful for five years.

But since Bella's appearance, this superficial balance was finally broken.

Mr. Sterling began to show emotions like a normal person.

He learned to love.
