Chapter 564
Irvin couldn’t imagine how I felt then.
When I had found out I was pregnant, it had to have taken a lot of courage for me to decide to get back together with him, only to hear him say he wanted to cut all ties with me and that Grace was pregnant with his babies. He had even told me to date other
men.
Irvin couldn’t bear to think about how hurt and pained I had to have been. He didn’t dare imagine it. He truly didn’t.
At that moment, he was filled with so much
that he genuinely wanted to tear his own heart out. He couldn’t believe how
someone as intelligent as him could keep behaving so stupidly when it came to our relationship.
How could he have been so blind?
Forget about me forgiving him, Irvin C
didn’t deserve to be forgiven.
forgive himself for all the dumb things he had done. Someone like him truly
Irvin explained, “I’m sorry, Emi. I’m so sorry. I had been drugged too heavily that night and had been completely out of my mind. When I woke up, Grace was in the room. She told she was the one I had slept with, and I believed her.
“Because of that, I thought I had been sullied. I had already been undeserving of your forgiveness, and after believing I had been tainted, I felt I was even less worthy of it. I also felt I would never deserve to be with you again , that was why… That was why…” he trailed off.
Irvin hadn’t finished his sentence, but I knew what he had left unsaid.
That was the reason he had ended our relationship like that and told me he wanted to become a real married couple with Grace. It was also why he told me to look for someone new.
I was stunned by his explanation. I had always known Irvin didn’t intend to be with Grace and become a real married couple because he had fallen for her. Instead, it had to be because he had fallen victim to her scheme.
However, I never imagined Grace would use that night to trick him into thinking she was the one who had been with him, just to tie him down.
This made me realize something. Snapping out of my thoughts, I curiously asked, “Then whose babies is Grace carrying?”
If Grace’s plot had failed, who was the father of her children?
Remembering how concerned and attentive Agatha was for the babies Grace was carrying, Irvin answered, “They’re Timothy’s.”
All the things that didn’t make sense to him in the past suddenly did at that moment. Realizing that he had been thoroughly manipulated by Timothy and played like a fool by Grace, he couldn’t help but laugh bitterly.
He really was an idiot.
Irvin had grown up in a sheltered and uncomplicated environment. His life had always gone smoothly since he was young. Even after being kicked out of his home, he had me. I had stood by him as he built his business until it was successful.
He had never experienced the cruelty of the real world. He was also too proud, and his heart was too good. So, he truly was no match for Timothy and Grace when it came to scheming and manipulating.
Remembering that Timothy was still alive, my curiosity instantly waned. I merely replied with a flat “oh” and didn’t know what else to say.
Timothy and Grace had completely outmaneuvered Irvin. The more he thought about it, the more he realized he had been no better than a fool. And the longer he dwelled on it, the more scarily severe his gaze became.
Irvin wouldn’t let them off. He would definitely make them pay as brutally as possible.
I had known Irvin since we were young, so I understood him well. I could already tell what he was thinking just from the change

I wanted him to be mentally prepared and also able to plan ahead wine recuperating . After all, keeping him in the dark until he had fully recovered would be too late.
So, I told Irvin that Timothy had returned to the Hardwell family under his original identity. Then, not long after, Magnus had handed over the family to him.
After hearing this, Irvin recalled Magnus‘ admiration for him. Whenever he had landed a big project or made some brilliant business decision, he would praise him. Magnus would also exclaim how he was the most trusted successor.
Additionally, Magnus had also said to Irvin that once he achieved a little more and solidified his position in the company , he would hand the Hardwell empire to him.
Irvin couldn’t hold back a bitter huff at this memory .
