A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 1156

Aidyn was no pushover, forcefully shoving Karan aside. He was strong while Karan was physically frail and often sickly. After being pushed by him, she fell to the ground with a loud thud. She winced in pain, trying to get herself up, but Aidyn's black leather shoe was stepping on her scattered dress. Following the line of his shoe upwards, she saw a dark and stern face.

Looking down upon Karan, Aidyn coldly said, "Settle your affairs first. I'll settle the score with you later..."

After dropping these words, he briskly departed from the Howell family, leaving Karan sprawled on the floor, watching their retreating backs...

After a while, a laugh suddenly escaped from Karan. Her dearly planned for her son and niece, whom she raised, were treating her this way. She really had misjudged them!

Once Aidyn got Liana into the car, he glanced at her and noticed her pale face, cold sweat on her forehead, and her body shaking uncontrollably. He couldn't help but feel concerned.

"Liana, what's wrong?"

Liana was usually calm and composed. Was she hurt by Karan? Just as Aidyn was planning to take Liana to the hospital for a check-up, he saw Liana's trembling hands pull out a recording device from her bag and handed it to him.

"Aidyn, could you do me a favor and send this recording to the Howell family?"

She wanted to expose Karan's deeds, clear Tyler's name, and enlighten the Howell family that Karan had wanted to get rid of Tyler since he was little. This alone would make it impossible for Karan to stay with the Howell family. She wanted Karan to face the consequences of her actions, fall from grace, and also...

"She murdered Hubert. Could you also find evidence and hand it over to the police?"

Aidyn, who was listening to the recording, was taken aback by Liana's words. The hatred in his eyes deepened.

"She's so sick in the head to even kill her own cousin..."

Liana turned her head, looking out the rapidly receding window. She, too, had killed someone, the person who loved her the most. She was also sick in the head...

Liana opened her hand, and her mind was filled with bloody images. She shook her head trying to get rid of them, but they only multiplied. She felt hopeless, opened the car window, and let the afternoon heat rush in.

She thought it would chase away the chill on her skin, but she still felt as cold as ice.

"Liana, don't blame yourself. Tyler wasn't that great. He always bullied you since you were kids. When he got angry, he liked to insult you verbally. He was too rough. He wasn't good. He wasn't good at all. It's okay that he's dead."

But it was Karan's fault that Tyler had become like this. It was Karan who made them hurt each other. Liana broke down, covering her eyes, letting her tears flow freely.

After listening to the recording, Aidyn was seething with anger. He immediately released it to the Howell family and sent it to the B City media. He wanted the media to help clear Tyler's name and put pressure on the Howell family.

Hackett was in a meeting when he heard that the media were rushing to interview him. He realized that his family's scandal was now public knowledge. He was livid, immediately pushing away the microphones held out by the media, got into his car, and ordered the driver to rush home. He stormed up to Karan, grabbed her collar, and slapped her multiple times, leaving Karan unable to move.
