Chapter 276 Thorns That Never Heal
Finished
“K, if you’ve got time, please quit obsessing over your terrible performance. Keep an eye on your man instead.
“You know what he told me after your embarrassing disaster atst night’s freshman wee show? He said you two were just childhood friends. He imed that he has zero feelings for you. He wants to chase after me instead.
“Tsk, tsk, tsk, K, you’re absolutely pathetic. I’ve crushed you at school already. Now, you can’t even keep your own guy interested. What’s the point of living?”
Tilda felt furious and exhausted by K’s pitiful victim act. She attacked with the most painful words she could find.
K’s face instantly turned deathly pale.
<i>No </i><i>way</i>… That was <i>impossible</i><i>! </i>How <i>could </i><i>Preston </i><i>betray </i><i>her </i><i>like </i><i>that</i><i>! </i>
Preston loved K. He was her devoted follower. A puppet she hadpletely brainwashed long ago!
But remembering how everyone in the Jensons had changed because of Tilda’s transformation, K’s rock–solid confidence Jin her acting skills and charm began to crumble violently.
She was terrified Preston would abandon her too.
“You … don’t spout nonsense. Tilda, I never said anything like that.”
Preston writhed in agony from his groin injury. He desperately tried to exin.
“You never said anything like that? Of course you didn’t. Believe it or not, K, I have zero interest in joking about this. Being liked by such an inted ego is truly disgusting.
“But hey, inted egos are pretty entertaining. They fall for every woman they meet. What a disgrace to the Bells!”
Tilda dropped those words and strutted away.
She knew her words had nted a deep thorn in K’s heart.
One that could never be removed.
Every time K saw Preston, that thorn would dig deeper into her heart. It would hurt so badly she could barely breathe!
Only this way would K be pushed to want to eliminate Tilda more desperately. To cooperate with Tobias.
To quickly achieve Tilda’s ultimate goal.
Sure enough, K’s expression looked like she’d just bitten into a raw lemon.
Justin noticed that Tilda was about to leave. He pressed his lips together. He told K and Kayden to stay and care for Preston while he chased after Tilda. <fn79a9> Read full story at find(?)ovel</fn79a9>
“Justin, be careful.”
The usually quiet Kayden grabbed Justin’s arm. He spoke with genuine concern.
“Don’t worry, nothing bad will happen. She’s still our sister no matter what. I believe in our blood connection.
“I’m leaving K and Preston in your capable hands.”
Justin gave Kayden a reassuring look.
After Justin left, Preston endured the excruciating pain. He exined to K, “K, don’t believe what Tilda said. She’s lying through her teeth. After all these years together, you should understand that you’re <b>the </b>only one in my heart.”
K suppressed the urge to p Preston. She forced a smile. “Preston, don’t talk about this now. You look seriously injured. Let’s get you to the hospital first.”

“Yes, Preston, let’s get you to the hospital. We need to check your injuries before making any other ns.”

Since she had been drinking, Tilda nned to call a designated driver service to take her home.
She was just about to take her phone out to open the app.
“Tilda.”
A gentle voice called out to her.
Tilda’s eyes flickered with cold light.
She sent her address to the driver. Then she put her hands in her pockets and turned to face Justin.
Her biological blood brother, Justin.
To be fair, Tilda’s hatred for Justin and Kayden wasn’t nearly as deep as her hatred for Dominic, Howard, and Wade.
But their actions toward Tilda were unforgivable.
They would rather believe every word K said. They’d always put her first in everything.
Whenever there was any conflict involving K, they would abandon their role as “brothers“, and they criticized everything Tilda did.
Even in her past life, Justin and Kayden had never believed Tilda once. They only believed K.
They had watched helplessly as Tilda was thrown into the fire and burned to death. They never stepped in to help.
Brothers like that? Tilda didn’t need them. She hated them to the core.
“Don’t call me that. I can’t handle it. I’ve already severed ties with the Jensons. Don’t tell me you still don’t know that.”
Faced with Tilda’s coldness, Justin secretly sighed.
It seemed like he still had a long way to go to eliminate the grudges and hatred in his sister’s heart.
“I know. I also heard from Dominic and Wade about what they did. They all regret it deeply. They want your forgiveness.
“They did many wrong things. Even as family, I can’t deny that. I gave them a thorough lecture for it.
“You know what they say about people turning over a new leaf. If it were anyone else, I wouldn’t have the right to ask you to. forgive anything.
“But they’re your biological brothers. We share the same blood. That’s something you can’t deny or abandon, Tilda. You should understand that.
“Please! Give them another chance! This is my plea to you as your brother! Please!”
Justin pleaded desperately with Tilda.
