Tilda felt a heavy sadness.
She wouldnât be so affected if she didnât care about him.
But nowâ¦
âIvy, you are so evil,â Rosalynn huffed.
She stared coldly at Ivy, her mind involuntarily drifting to another woman.
Kennedi, who had once kidnapped her and Karina, forcing Barlow to choose between them.

Both Ivy and Kennedi were evil, trying to stir discord.
Fortunately, Karina saw through Kennediâs scheme and remained Rosalynnâs steadfast friend, aware of Barlowâs deep love for her.
But Tildaâs situation⦠was different from Karinaâs.
Her relationship with Lyndon was still nascent, their feelings not yet fully developed.
Ivyâs recent words felt like a sharp blade, slicing through Tildaâs heart.
If Tilda and Lyndon had been deeply in love, perhaps they could have shrugged off the incident.
But their budding relationship made Ivyâs words all the more wounding to Tilda.
âHow can you call me evil? Iâm just trying to show my dear sister the harsh reality,â Ivy sneered, lightly tapping Tildaâs cheek.
âMy dear sister, look closely.
This is the man you married, someone who could disregard your safety.
What do you have to boast about? I suggested divorce to set you free.
You should be thanking me!â
She continued to pat Tildaâs face dismissively.
Behind Tilda loomed a cliff.
Her slight figure appeared especially fragile against the night breeze, stirring a sense of alarm.
Keanu, unable to hold back any longer, burst out, âEnough! Canât you stop? Thereâs a cliff behind her, and she could fall if youâre not careful!â
Ivy turned to him with a raised eyebrow.
âSo, youâre here too.
Ah, Keanu, isnât it? Feeling sympathetic, are you? See this, my dear sister? Your first love still cares.
Right now, heâs the only one worried about you, the only one who truly loves you! After you leave Lyndon, you could be with him.
â
At Ivyâs words, Tilda reflexively looked towards Keanu, her lips tightly pursed.
As she met Keanuâs anxious gaze, her heart softened.
In that moment, it was clear that he truly cared about her.
Then, she turned to look at Lyndon.
His expression was stoic, revealing nothing.
