Twisted Ties of Love novel Chapter 290

What would someone look like when their emotions were too overwhelming? Izabella slumped in her wheelchair, crying and laughing like a madwoman, her throat itching and her stomach churning. She leaned on the armrest of her wheelchair, laughing until she felt like throwing up.

Izabella's birth was due to an accident, her mother having sacrificed her life to save her. Ever since she could remember, she had faced nothing but the disgusted and hateful looks of others, constantly reminding her that she carried the weight of a life, and she shouldn't have existed in this world.

But...had anyone ever asked her if she wanted to be in this world?

She hated herself more than anyone, and if it not been for Ryker, who had carried her home from the playground many years ago, she might not have made it this far.

Nathaniel had given her two choices: save her and she will stay by his side or die in an accident.

Without hesitation, Izabella chose the second option. But what kind of accident would it be?

Izabella didn't know; she had always been afraid of pain, but in her 26 years she had endured the agony of what felt like several lifetimes.

Sometimes she couldn't help but wonder what other 26-year-olds were like. Were they in love? Married? Or did they already have a healthy child...

Surely they wouldn't be like her, covered in wounds from head to toe, with a broken family and disabled limbs, confined to a wheelchair.

She truly wished that all good people in the world would be rewarded, and not die young like her, without ever having experienced true happiness.

In this world, one pitiful person like her was enough.

Izabella looked at the foggy sky outside, making her feel sleepy. There probably wouldn't be any snow this winter...

Listening to the voices on the television, she closed her eyes to rest for a bit.

Katie closed the bedroom door before leaving.

At eleven in the morning, Brett and Kaley appeared on the television. A perfect pair of beautiful people, they were quite the match. Brett wore a black suit, it was his engagement day, but his brow furrowed and his expression serious as he faced those who came to congratulate him.

Kaley, on the other hand, was all smiles, wearing a stunning haute couture gown and jewelry worth millions. Although her figure couldn't compare to Izabella's, her long legs were her most attractive feature.

Wearing a red fishtail gown with a slit up to her thigh, Kaley held a glass of red wine in one hand while naturally and affectionately holding Brett's right hand with the other, leaning her head on his shoulder and confidently facing the flashing cameras.

This confident look was strikingly similar to Izabella's at one point.

"I didn't expect the mayor to come," Kaley said excitedly, tugging Brett's hand gently, "Will your grandfather come?"

In comparison to the mayor, she was more looking forward to meeting Patrick Windham, whose status was much higher than that of the mayor. As long as he came, her position as Ms. Windham would be secure.
