Chapter 216: Austin’s Remorse
Elizabeth’s POV:
I watched quietly as Austin and Anthony talked and found that the atmosphere between them was not as tense as before.
This made me sigh deeply.
I hated Austin deeply.
After all, he had killed my beloved husband.
But admittedly, I was relieved to see that the relationship between the two brothers was improving.
Otherwise, Anthony would need to stay vigilant as long as Austin was alive.
He would never be able to rest easy.
It was good for Anthony and Austin to reconcile.
After all, they were brothers.
But thinking about my poor husband’s fate, I couldn’t help but shed angry tears.
“Take good care of Caroline, Austin,” I said coldly.

I didn’t care that I was being harsh.Daily Latest update www.jar.com
Austin needed to be warned.
“I have accepted defeat.Rest assured, I will not try to rebel or anything like that.”
Austin lowered his head.
“From now on, I’ll live with Caroline on the island in peace.”
“Good.Austin, can you tell me why you killed your father?” I asked.
All the color drained from Austin’s face and he tried to avert his gaze.
“Answer me, Austin!”
I demanded, raising my voice.
“Why? Why did you have to kill him? He is your father! How could you do that to your own father?”
Thinking about my late husband, depression overtook me and my knees buckled from under me.
Jennifer and Anthony both rushed to my side to support me, worry written all over their faces.
“I…The truth is, I didn’t want to kill him,”
Austin stuttered, lowering his head dejectedly.
“Ever since I killed him, nightmares have plagued me every single night.I always dream that he wants to kill me.You have to believe me.I never wanted to kill him.But he had
always favored Anthony, which made me jealous.I held a grudge against the both of them for the longest time.In the battlefield, I killed him on impulse.I regretted it instantly!”
“You bastard!”
I pointed at Austin with a trembling finger.
“Your father’s efforts to raise you were all in vain! He still cared about you, you know? He praised Anthony in front of you because he wanted to motivate you! But that doesn’t
matter.You had no excuse to kill your father!”
“Thank God!”
Now that I knew the baby was safe, I heaved a sigh of relief.
“I’m sorry, Caroline.This was all my fault.It’s because of all of my sins that God has punished you like this!”
Austin kissed my hand, his face wrought with guilt.
“Honey, don’t say that.God allowed me and our baby survive, didn’t he?”
I said gently, stroking his hand.
“Thank you, Anthony, Mom, and Jennifer…”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI tried my best to sit up and bow to them.
If they hadn’t asked the best doctors to help me, I might have been lying dead in a morgue by now.
Worse yet, the baby might not have survived.
“Oh! Don’t try to get up.Your wound has just been stitched.Lie down first!”
My mother and Jenniferhurried to help me back into bed.
“You’re my daughter.I hated watching you suffer like this,” my mother said with a pained expression.
Tears welled up in my eyes.
How could I have hurt my own mother? How stupid and ignorant I was! How could I have been blind to her love? And Jennifer, too.
She managed to forgive me despite everything I had done to her.
What a kind and open-minded girl! No wonder Anthony had fallen for her.
“Thank you, Jennifer.Thank you, Mom.I’m truly sorry for everything…”
My voice was hoarse.
I held Jennifer’s hand and squeezed it gently.
“Jennifer, good luck to you and Anthony.I mean it.I hope you can succeed in removing the Love Curse.”
Jennifer’s eyes went wide with astonishment, but soon she smiled at me.
“The past is in the past.I’m just glad that you’re willing to apologize to me.Thank you, Caroline.”
Jennifer squeezed my hand back.
