Too Late, Mr. Cooper: Your Bride Ran with Your Baby novel Chapter 110

From Mrs. Cooper and Linton’s perspective, if Isabella’s parents had truly saved their lives, then their actions were, in a twisted way, understandable. No one could really fault them. A life debt was something you repaid for a lifetime; you could never do too much.

Liliana’s lips parted. “When… when did Linton find out the truth?”

Old Mr. Cooper paused for a moment before answering slowly. “From the time he was just a year old, as soon as he could form memories. Eleanor would hold him and tell him about the debt they owed Isabella’s parents.”

“Even back then, she taught him, over and over again, that no matter what happened, he had to take good care of Isabella. He could never let her be wronged, and he had to look after her for the rest of his life to repay that debt.”

A year old…

Liliana’s lips curved into a wry smile, her expression turning complex. She knew Linton was brilliant and had started forming memories early on, but she never imagined that Mrs. Cooper had been instilling this in him since he was a toddler.

No wonder… No wonder.

Linton was two years older than her. When she thought about it, he had known Isabella longer than he had known her. Long before Liliana first met Linton as a child and demanded he remember her, the idea of being good to Isabella for life to repay a debt had already been deeply ingrained in his mind.

Her face suddenly turned pale. The truth was laid bare before her, and she felt a sudden tightness in her chest, making it hard to breathe. A bitter laugh escaped her lips. Her entire life suddenly felt like a joke.

Linton knew everything. How must he have seen her all these years? As a fool? A clown performing for his amusement?
