The Love I Begged For Was Never Real novel Chapter 337

The transcript of that recording was sitting right there in the investigation report by the bed.

From start to finish, this incident had absolutely nothing to do with Giselle.

The men who had tried to harm Nora had already been crippled on his orders, tossed into prison like dead dogs, destined to rot there for the rest of their lives.

For her, he had fought through the agony of his torn flesh to kick down that door.

For her, he had unleashed a bloodbath in the dead of night, completely erasing every single threat in her path.

And yet, everything he had done hadn't earned a shred of gratitude, not even a simple thank you.

All he received was her unhinged, baseless attacks against Giselle.

Gideon withdrew his gaze and looked at Nora again.

He stared at his wife in name, taking in the raw, unapologetic hatred and absolute certainty etched across her face.

In Nora's eyes, it seemed every drop of malice and every conspiracy in the world was orchestrated by Giselle.

A profound exhaustion washed over Gideon.

His sister was naive and delicate, raised under his protective wing. She couldn't even handle a harsh word.

Sure, Giselle might occasionally show a bit of a spoiled temper and say a few catty things to Nora, but she was entirely incapable of hiring thugs and drugging someone to ruin their innocence.

How could Nora so righteously pin such a filthy, vicious crime on an innocent girl who wasn't even in the country?

When had she become so narrow-minded, so consumed by bitterness?

It was as if she couldn't balance the resentment in her own heart unless she was dragging Giselle through the mud.

The man's towering figure looked exceptionally cold in the morning light.

There wasn't a trace of the tenderness or the raw passion from the night before left in those sharp, deep eyes.

Nora watched Gideon's impenetrable, defensive posture. She heard the sheer impatience and disappointment in his voice when he asked why she always dragged Giselle into everything.

All her struggles, all her defenses, were reduced to a pathetic joke in the face of his blatant bias.
