Five Years Wasted Now They Beg Her Back novel Chapter 110

A single, weightless word.

But it landed on Lucian’s heart like a mountain.

He pressed on, unwilling to give up hope.

“Why… why does it mention ‘Purple Blood Grass’?”

Grace finally lifted her eyes to meet his, a barely perceptible trace of mockery in them.

“What did you expect?”

“Did you really think the medicine that saved your life five years ago was something Lilian simply cried for?”

Grace looked at him, the corner of her lips curling into an icy smile.

“Back then, I spent three days and nights straight in the lab analyzing that plant’s active ingredients and finding a synthetic alternative. I failed hundreds of times and nearly blew up my mentor’s lab.”

“Unfortunately…”

She paused before continuing, “The person who stood before you to take all the credit wasn’t me.”

Lucian staggered back as if struck by lightning, bumping into the bookshelf behind him.

Books crashed to the floor around him.

He didn’t even notice.

In that moment, any lingering hope he had was shattered.

An endless rage surged up from the depths of his soul.

He was furious at Lilian for her theft and deception!

The sister he had doted on for over twenty years was nothing but a vile, shameless liar?

But even stronger than the rage was a deep-seated hatred.

A hatred for his own stupidity.

All these years, how had he treated Grace?

He had hit her, cursed her.

He treated her like an enemy, a thorn in his side.

But he never knew that the very life he was living had been dragged back from death’s door by the person he hated most.
