With a forceful push, Abelyn shoved Dustin aside.
"Why didn't you voice your doubts? You could have asked Joan directly about it. Instead, you chose to commit such an atrocity behind her back," Dustin remarked in disappointment.
So what?She was the one who started it.lfshe hadn't abandoned me and left me with Della, I wouldn't have schemed against her.lt's all her fault! She is the one who forced me into the corner.
"Dustin, you're the only one whom I have spoken to about this. As to what you decide to do, it's entirely up to you." Just as she spoke, Abelyn headed upstairs.
Up to me?How am I to even go about this?On one side is the one I love now. On the other, is the one I have loved for many years. How do I even make a choice?Should I hide the truth?! would be betraying Joan then.Should I expose herinstead? But I can't bear to see anyone harming her. However, what Dustin didn't consider was that the harm that Abelyn had to suffer was actually her punishment.
As Dustin sat on the sofa, he lifted his head and stared blankly at the ceiling.
As of now, Jessica knows the truth. Even if I don't tell anyone else about what Abelyn has just said, Jessica would definitely tell Larry given her temperament.The only consolation is that Joan doesn't want to pursue the matter at a 11. Abelyn oh Abelyn, how did you end up being so irrational? With a helpless expression, Dustin looked in the direction of her room.
"Are you sure?" Larry asked coldly in his office.
"Yes! Absolutely sure! Joan told me herself," Jessica answered resolutely on the phone.
It seems my suspicion is right. With an angry expression, Larry threw the documents he was holding aside.
No, I must confront Abelyn to get to the bottom of this. What drove her to harm Joan?Why did she choose to destroy such a precious relationship? Knock! Knock! The knocks were loud and jarring.
In the living hall, Dustin sprang to his feet from the sofa.
Who is it? He became wary at once.
