Substitute 97

Chapter 27

Winni laughed, but suddenly broke into tears.

In the end, Winni was sentenced to seven years in prison, choosing not to appeal, and Jean finally received her apology.

After leaving the courtroom, Jean looked at Berton, now confined to a wheelchair.

"I will always be grateful to you for saving me that day. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be standing here. And thank you for agreeing to testify."

"Winni's fate is her own doing; it has nothing to do with you. She and I had some issues I didn't know

about. They may have hurt you, including me. None of those were my intention, you..."

Jean remained silent; if they were to revisit the past, it would never end.

Though she was scared, her tone was resolute.

Berton suddenly changed the subject.

His assistant handed him a file containing the annulment agreement Jean had left behind.

Berton smiled as he flipped through it. "I was going to be a rogue. I hadn't signed it yet, so the } engagement isn't officially annulled. But now that I think about it, let's just end it."

Berton neatly signed the document and handed it to Jean.

"Jean, you were right. Many times, the suffering you endured was caused directly or indirectly by me."

"People should look forward, so I don't want to be like Winni, trapped in memories of the past.

"I love you, especially love you. Our love may have a time difference;

I woke up a little late, but I don't

regret it. Towe you a lot, maybe I can never repay it. After this incident, I feel a bit better, so you don't need to feel guilty or ashamed."

"Jean, be happy..."

After saying this, the assistant pushed Berton away.
