Chapter 205: Move out of Italy
Layla left the boardroom after a meeting and was ready to leave. As she collected her things, Aiden walked in.
"Orabela demands to see you," Aiden informed her.
It confused Layla first, but then she asked him to let her in. Within seconds, Orabela stepped into the office room and looked behind her. "Can we have a private conversation?" she requested, wanting Aiden to leave.
Layla gestured to Aiden, who walked out, leaving the two sisters alone in the room.
"I need to go home. Say it quick," Layla asserted.
"Canvin broke the marriage as he found out I’m the illegitimate daughter of my father," Orabela replied. "He said he didn’t wish to marry a woman whose mother attempted to murder you," she added.
"Did you not tell him before?" Layla asked.
"I thought he knew," Orabela replied, quickly wiping the tears that flowed down her eyes.
Layla’s heart melted, but the memories she made while being on Orabela’s place returned to her, making her remember she suffered worst than that.
"Why are you telling me all this?" Layla asked, avoiding her eye contact as she picked up her phone from the desk.
"I want to apologize to you," Orabela said. "I did wrong to you since we were young. And I am sorry for seducing Roderick. I wanted to snatch everything from you. I-I turned so evil that I refused to see what was right or wrong," she affirmed and sniffled.
