Chapter 38
Ines definitely would not forget these two people. When she woke up from her car accident, knowing nothing about the world, everyone was blaming her and even wanted to call the police. The woman in front of her, sitting in a wheelchair, was begging for her with a pitiful look. Emma Galeana, her half–sister And the man beside her was her ex–fiancé, Alden Ramos
She clearly remembered Emma saying. “Ines, I don’t blame you for hitting me with your car It’s my fault that I’m now disabled and in a wheelchair It’s all because I fell for Aiden. I deserve it. But Aiden and I truly love each other I just hope you can let us be together.”
At that time, Emma was in a wheelchair, with others standing behind her. They couldn’t see her expression, but Ines saw her smile. She didn’t know why, but she struggled to raise her hand and slapped Emma hard. She saw her father’s angry eyes and her stepmother’s gloating smile on her face
When she woke up again, only Zander and Rita were by her side. Rita’s eyes were red as she looked at her. Later, she found out that her father had cut ties with her. She couldn’t describe how she felt at the time. She just felt awful. After a long time, she said, “I don’t need a father like that anyway”
Later, she went to live in B City with Zander and Rita, and five years passed in the blink of an eye.
She had been prepared to meet these people again, but she didn’t expect it to happen so soon.
“III come back whenever I want, you have no right to interfere ” Ines said.
Emma was even more angry looking at Ines’s calm expression. She gritted her teeth and said, “Ines, don’t forget what you did. If I hadn’t chosen not to call the police, do you think you’d still be standing here? Aren’t you afraid I’ll make you pay?”
“I don’t care” Ines turned around and walked away, not wanting to see these two people at all.
She had been avoiding this situation for too long. Maybe facing it now wasn’t a bad thing. Over the years, she had consoled herself countless times. If she had really done something like that, she should have faced the legal consequences, instead of running away like nothing had happened
If she had really done something like that, she wouldn’t even respect herself in her dreams.
But if someone was deliberately slandering her, she would never accept it.
Since she dared to come back, she was already prepared to face everything.
“Ines!” Emma shouted angrily. She could handle anything calmly, but she couldn’t stand Ines’s cold attitude. Since Emma joined the Galeana family, Ines had always been like this. It was as if Ines was the unattainable cloud in the sky, while she was just the lowly mud on the ground.
But they both had their father’s blood.
Every time she saw Ines like this, she felt a surge of nameless anger in her heart, wanting to tear Ines apart. This feeling hadn’t changed at all even after so many years.
Ines left directly, but Aiden caught up with her and blocked her way. “Izzy, wait”
Ines looked at the man in front of her. She thought she would feel at least a little bit sad, but at this moment she knew she was calm, as if the person standing in front of her was a complete stranger, not the fiancé who had betrayed her.
Aiden was hurt by her cold expression and smiled bitterly, muttering. Actually, I saw you and Phoebe yesterday. At the time I thought I was mistaken, but you really came back”
Ines still didn’t speak, just looking at him.
“I’m sorry,” Aiden choked up. He found that he had a thousand words in his heart, but facing Ines like this, he couldn’t say a word.
That apology was way too late.
Ines scoffed, “Sorry for what? For cheating with my sister the night before our engagement? Or for staying silent when I was being accused by everyone after the accident?”
“Izzy, under those circumstances, I couldn’t say anything. Emma’s legs were almost amputated, and the doctor said she might be disabled.” Aiden said.
Ines sneered. Emma had almost lost her legs, but ines wasn’t much better off. She had been in a coma for a whole month before waking up. She said, “Shut up. Don’t tell me this stuff. I don’t want to hear it at all. The only thing I’m sure of is that your betrayal was a lucky thing for me.” Over the years, she had thought a lot and felt more relief than frustration. She was glad that she had seen a man’s true colors early, avoiding deeper
hurt
Ines looked indifferently at Aiden, who had a terrible expression, and felt a thrill of pleasure, “I have left the Galeana family, and I have nothing to do with you If you don’t want to humiliate yourself, stay away from me in the future.”
Ines walked past Aiden and headed straight for the bus stop. Phoebe called at that moment. Phoebe’s mom had found out she was back and invited her to dinner. Ethan had an engagement that night, so Ines accepted Phoebe’s invitation.
Aiden stood there in a daze. Emma came over and saw him like this, her anger burning like a raging fire. She knew that although this man had been with her all these years, he had never forgotten the woman named Ines.
Aiden saw Emma’s angry eyes and closed his eyes wearily, “Emma, she’s still your sister after all. Let bygones be bygones. She’s had a hard time these years too.

*Aiden, be fair. She’s had a hard time, but what about me? You know what my life has been like these years.” Emma said.
Aiden didn’t know what to say. As Emma sald, she hadn’t had it easy either. The long rehabilitation process wasn’t easy, and she wouldn’t have made it without great determination.
