The Genius Ex-Wife’s Revenge Portfolio novel Chapter 875

“What did you want to talk about?”

“I… I wanted to ask about your face. Lucas said he knew what happened. He told me if I met him, he’d tell me everything.”

Jason paused, looking over at Lilly. “So you went to see Lucas just to find out about my face?”

“Of course. What else did you think? I didn’t know Lucas was such a creep. He cut off a piece of steak and tried to feed it to me. He said he’d only tell me if I ate it. I didn’t, not even a bite.”

Seeing the way Lilly talked about Lucas, her disgust so obvious, Jason felt his anger start to fade. So that’s what it was.

Still…

He looked at her, searching her face. “You really don’t know what happened to me?”

Lilly shook her head. “No, I don’t. Why do you keep asking me that? Was I supposed to know?”

Jason was quiet for a few seconds. Now it all made sense. Lilly hadn’t been involved three years ago. That meant it had to be Lucas.

“Jason, what actually happened to you? Will you tell me?”

“Three years ago, I got hurt during a police bust. We caught that drug lord, but I was badly injured. I tried to find you, but someone grabbed me, dragged me into a car, and threw acid on my face. I was left disfigured, then they crashed the car off a cliff with me inside.”

Lilly gasped, her eyes wide. “Wait, what? Someone did that to you? You were in a car crash too?”

She shook her head, still stunned. “Jason, I’m so sorry. I had no idea you went through all of that.”

“It’s okay,” he said quietly. “It’s over now.”
