Chapter 24 Victor stepped forward , visibly agitated at Lily's mention of seven years . " Lily , have you gotten your memories back? " Hearing this , Benjamin shot a worried glance at Lily . He wasn't sure if his few months with her could measure up to her seven years with Victor . Lily noticed Benjamin's concern . She squeezed his hand and turned to Victor . " I remember now . But Victor , what makes you think I'd come back ? " " Did you ever show me an ounce of kindness in those seven years ? " " Even the thing you used to jog my memory was something I shamelessly gave you . Do you own a single item holding our shared memories ? " Victor stood speechless under her barrage of questions . Lily continued , " Seven years is enough . You're tired of it , and so am I. " " I've found someone to spend my life with . Please let me go . " Her words were both rejection and plea . " Sorry . " Victor uttered this before fleeing the ward in near panic . " Lily ... am I the one you want to spend your life with ? " Benjamin's voice trembled with hope and nervousness . Chapter 24 Lily tightened her grip on his hand , meeting his gaze steadily . " Yes , Benjamin . I , Lily , want to share my life with you . " Meanwhile , Victor had barely exited when Sophie grabbed him . Disheveled and pale , she bore no resemblance to her former self . Clutching his sleeve like a lifeline , she pleaded : " Victor , I can't go to prison . I can't !" Victor had released evidence of Sophie's plagiarism and past misdeeds . The damage she'd once inflicted on Benjamin's company by framing Lily now backfired onto Sophie and the Scotts . Fired from the Scott Group and vilified online , Sophie faced criminal charges for hitting Lily with her car likely meaning years behind bars . - Desperate , she begged Victor for help , hoping Lily would grant a letter of forgiveness . Victor pried her fingers off his sleeve one by one . " No ! Victor , please save me ! " " It was just a moment of madness ! I never meant to kill her , never ! " Victor shoved her to the floor . " Save it for the police . " Those words shattered her last hope . Collapsed on the ground , Sophie wailed uncontrollably . Lily later learned of Sophie's fate from Benjamin . Chapter 24 " Victor came to see you recently . " Lily looked puzzled . " Why bring him up now ? " 12 Woche Their lives had been calm waters lately . Victor seemed to have heeded her words , vanishing without further disturbance . Since Lily regained her memories and confessed her feelings , Benjamin had relaxed completely no longer seeing Victor as a rival . - " He came to see you , saying he's uncovered everything about the past . Sophie has been sent to prison too . Benjamin paused before continuing , " He said he trampled your feelings for seven years , and now it's his turn to pursue you . " Lily wasn't moved at all by Victor's words . She pretended to vomit at Benjamin . They both burst out laughing . " Lily , do you really not love him anymore ? " Lily planted a kiss on Benjamin's cheek . " I've answered this countless times , but I'll say it one last time . " " Lily loves only Benjamin now and forever . " Benjamin immediately dropped to one knee , pulling out a ring . " This proposal might seem rushed , but I can't wait any longer . " " Lily , will you marry me ? " Lily gazed at Benjamin before her . No cheering crowd , no grand spectacle -just her racing heartbeat and an irrepressible voice inside screaming
