Twisted Ties of Love novel Chapter 302

Presley's legs suddenly went weak, and at that moment, he felt as if there was something wrong with his hearing.

Not long after he had left, Izabella filed for divorce from Brett. But because his father provided false testimony in court saying that Izabella had a mental illness and secretly transferred 80 billion of their joint assets, she failed to get divorced?

Presley's body swayed a bit. When he was desperately researching how to save Izabella, his family was pushing her into a corner, and there was no one to help her.

In an instant, Presley thought about a lot. He didn't want to believe what Lucas said, but when he thought of the evasive eyes of his parents after returning and their silence about Izabella, everything seemed much clearer.

Lucas's eyes were full of rage like an angry lion. He stood up, grabbing Presley's shirt on his chest.

Lucas shouted out, "You're right, I don't deserve to be her brother because I never accepted her. But what about you, Presley?"

— But what about you, Presley?

Did he think he was nice to Izabella? When she was struggling and begging for help, he not only failed to save her, but his family was also oppressing her and pushing her into hell.

Izabella was not afraid of hell. What she feared were the people who pushed her to it- not the wicked villains, but the ones she once thought of as family and treated with sincerity.

Presley stumbled back as Lucas pushed him. He stood there blankly, tears streaming down his face as his heart completely crumbled.

"I hurt her, I'm sorry. I said I would take her away as long as she wanted, but what have I done..."

Presley frantically pulled at his hair, squatting on the ground, and gasping for air through his tears.

The scene of Izabella banging her head against the wall in court flashed through his mind.

She wanted to live so badly, but they all forced her to lose hope.

All of them were accomplices in her death.

Presley's face went pale, and he wondered blankly, what right did he have to blame Lucas?

Lucas tried to shirk responsibility, but could Izabella's death really be shrugged off?

He used to wish for Izabella's death, but when she really died, he realized she was the only family he had left. Without Izabella, he was truly alone.

Lucas choked up, squatting on the ground and gasping for air. He wiped away his tears with his left hand and rubbed his eyes raw from the pain.

Presley struggled to say, "I don't believe Izabella is dead."

Lucas took out his phone and placed it at Presley's feet, "The first call on the screen came yesterday; you can check it yourself."

"You didn't check?" Presley asked.

Lucas didn't answer, he just sobbed with his head down. To put it shamefully, he dared not check.

After receiving the call yesterday, he was stunned until now, not daring to think that Izabella was dead.

Presley clenched his teeth, bent over, and trembled as he picked up the phone. He then looked up the number. It was the J City Police Department's phone number.

Presley was not convinced, so he searched for recent fire-related fatalities in J City. Sure enough, he found a piece of news on December 25th.

On Brett's engagement day, the big screen broadcasting the engagement video experienced technical difficulties. They accidentally switched to a surveillance video with a room full of flames. In a sealed room on the first floor, close to the French windows, a skinny figure was engulfed in the fire. She struggled painfully to hit the glass, leaving her bloody body imprint on it.

Below the video, there was a subtitle.

At 12:30 pm on December 25th, a fire accidentally erupted at an XX Island villa. 27-year-old Izabella Salotti tragically died in the fire.

Presley's face turned pale, as if he had been burned by the phone. His hands shrank, dropping the phone with the screen facing Lucas.
