Listening to Adrian Grant still scolding her like he was her husband. Raina Lowell found it laughable. "Who I’m with is none of your business. Adrian Grant, if Isabelle Everett hadn’t betrayed you, wouldn’t you two already be married?" Thinking about her daughter’s death, which was partly caused by Adrian Grant’s indifference. And the things that happened four years ago, she would never forgive that man in this lifetime. Now, seeking revenge against Isabelle Everett, there was no need to use Adrian Grant anymore, Raina Lowell felt she should sever ties with him completely. Google seaʀᴄh 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝✦𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖✦𝕟𝕖𝕥 With a man like him, she found it suffocating to even say a word. Adrian Grant felt a pang of sourness and patiently explained: "You being with Alaric Jennings doesn’t bother me, but Ethan Everett does; his character is questionable." A man who can sleep with his foster sister and even record it, is utterly rotten. And he sent the video to him. Adrian Grant never realized Ethan Everett’s behavior was so despicable. He absolutely couldn’t let Raina be deceived. Raina Lowell laughed softly, "Ethan Everett is indeed no good, but you’re not much better. Adrian Grant, we’ve divorced, I’ve also transferred the money I owed you; from now on we owe each other nothing and should never contact each other again in this lifetime." She hung up the phone, swiftly blacklisted and deleted all ways of contacting Adrian Grant. Adrian Grant tried calling back, only to find the line was perpetually busy. He still didn’t understand why Raina ran off to be with Ethan Everett. To figure it out, he drove directly to the Everett family’s villa. Isabelle Everett couldn’t reach Ethan. Yet she was burning with anger. She couldn’t accept that Adrian Grant had just called off their engagement, and thought Ethan truly loved her and could solve all troubles to bring her home. But Ethan turned around and was now with Raina Lowell. Unwilling to let her only support be stolen, Isabelle wasn’t afraid to be troubled by the Everetts and took a cab straight back to the villa. Coincidentally, she ran into Adrian Grant. The two met head-on at the entrance of the Everett Villa. For a moment, the atmosphere froze. Realizing what was happening, Isabelle promptly approached Adrian Grant, crying to keep him: "Adrian, are you here to find me? You still want to marry me, don’t you?" She still held a glimmer of hope for him. Adrian Grant avoided her with disdain, his expression cold: "Don’t disgust me, put away your pitiful act, making it seem as if it’s my fault; your affair with Ethan Everett truly opened my eyes." He stepped forward and pressed the doorbell. Seeing this woman, he was reminded of the video Ethan sent him. He couldn’t help but feel revulsion. Isabelle panicked, desperately defending: "Ethan forced me, I didn’t want that with him, and I don’t care about you and Raina Lowell either. Adrian..." She raised her hand to grab him, crying pitifully. Adrian Grant waited for a long time without seeing anyone come to open the door. He shook off Isabelle’s hand irritably. He didn’t notice that upstairs at the Everett Villa, Raina Lowell was watching them. Seeing Ethan come over, she grabbed him to spy together. "Do you think Isabelle is begging Adrian Grant to reconcile with her?" Ethan peeked through a chink in the curtain, saw Isabelle crying and pulling at Adrian Grant. That gesture indeed looked like she was begging Adrian Grant. Ethan felt a pang of sourness, clenching his fists tightly. He couldn’t bear it anymore, turned around wanting to confront Isabelle. Raina Lowell chuckled sadly: "Do you love this foster sister so much? For her, you wouldn’t hesitate to harm me, and don’t care that she could betray you at any time." Since Isabelle and Ethan had slept together, Adrian Grant could cancel the wedding at the ceremony. Which proved Adrian Grant wouldn’t still be with Isabelle. Now, Isabelle’s support was Ethan. But since she chased all the way to the door, why did she still pin her hopes on Adrian Grant? Raina Lowell couldn’t quite understand Isabelle’s behavior. Ethan halted, turned back to look at his sister. He was full of shame, leaving behind a few words: "I’m sorry, I’ll slowly atone for the harm I’ve caused you, but I truly love Isabelle." Unwilling to let Isabelle stay with Adrian Grant, as his words dropped, Ethan rushed downstairs. Coming into the courtyard, he barely opened the door. Before pulling Isabelle away from Adrian Grant, Adrian had already stepped forward and punched him twice. Feeling it wasn’t enough, Adrian roughly grabbed him. "How dare you, Ethan Everett? I won’t fuss over your affair with Isabelle, you should feel lucky, but you dared to go after Raina—is that a death wish?" Raina could be with anyone. Even Alaric Jennings or Damien Sinclair, he wouldn’t interfere. This man had grown up with him, and they had always been like brothers. How could he, after divorcing Raina, go after Raina? Ethan, having been punched twice, was bleeding from his nose and mouth. Seeing Isabelle standing beside, showing no hint of concern for him, nor did she try to stop Adrian. Ethan felt heartbroken, turned to look at Adrian, didn’t fight back. "Are you this agitated because you love Raina?" He wanted Isabelle to see clearly who Adrian cared about. Adrian Grant did not deny it, confidently declaring in front of Isabelle: "Yes, I love Raina Lowell." "Then what does Isabelle mean to you?" Next to him, Isabelle also tensed up, hoping Adrian would utter a word caring about her. But he didn’t, Adrian remained firm and cold: "If not to keep Raina out of jail, I wouldn’t have agreed to marry Isabelle. She means nothing to me, so I’m actually glad you sent me that video, giving me a reason to cancel the wedding." He released Ethan, coldly asked, "Is Raina with you?" Ethan took two steps back, didn’t answer, instead looked at Isabelle, smiling bitterly: "Did you hear that? He doesn’t love you." Isabelle felt her heart had already died. The man she had focused on marrying never had a moment of genuine affection for her. If that was the case, why cling to him? Stabilizing the nearly broken mindset from Adrian’s contempt, she proactively leaned towards Ethan, speaking vindictively: "I knew that, I don’t love him either, that’s why I slept with you." Knowing there was no hope being with Adrian, she could only place all her chips on Ethan. Clinging to his arm, Isabelle cried and asked: "Ethan, didn’t you tell me to wait for you? Then why did you start seeing Raina Lowell?" Adrian watched their sibling-like behavior, without a hint of concern, only felt disgusted. He avoided them, wanting to go directly into the Everett family to find someone. Yet he ran into Mr. and Mrs. Everett coming out. The couple looked at the scene in the courtyard, raging: "Ethan Everett, Isabelle Everett, what are you doing." Isabelle jumped in shock, hurriedly drew back her hand from Ethan, cried and strode forward shouting: "Dad, Mom, I’m sorry, it’s my incompetence that embarrassed you." Ethan couldn’t bear to watch Isabelle suffer alone, immediately pulled her behind him, facing the parents, taking all blame on himself. "Dad, Mom, it’s my fault, it has nothing to do with Isabelle, blame me if you will!"
