Chapter 282 He Has Never Loved Me

• As soon as these words fell, the entire banquet hall plunged into silence. Everyone thought that Lauren would fly off the handle. Fury was written all over Axel’s face, a stark contrast from Ethan who maintained a façade of calmness although turmoil brewed in the depths of his phoenix eyes, his gaze glacial as he stared at that person.
• When everyone assumed that Lauren dared not face the accusations and would flee in panic, her reaction disappointed everyone. Her face devoid of expression, she stared wordlessly at the reporter with a dispassionate gaze that rendered her emotions unfathomable. “How much do you know about the incident five years ago, miss? Did you witness it with your own eyes? Even if you did, it might not necessarily be true, much less when you weren’t even there, were you?”
• She then shifted her gaze to Ethan who was standing at the side, and her voice turned a few degrees colder. “Even if I were guilty in the incident back then, I’ve already served a jail term of five years and received my due punishment. However, I hope that you’ll also be able to let go ungrudgingly when the person you love most betrays you, miss! At least, I wasn’t able to do so at that time.”
