Too Late, Mr. Cooper: Your Bride Ran with Your Baby novel Chapter 231

The next time Liliana heard news from Crownport, it came from Mrs. Hart, who informed her that Isabella had been arrested.

Liliana, who was in the middle of eating from a tub of ice cream, froze at the news.

"...Huh?"

Mrs. Hart took the ice cream from her, sitting down beside her with a complicated expression.

"Well, I never would have expected it. I heard the Grayson family found new evidence and went straight to the police."

"I always knew there was something off about that girl, ever since she was little, but... still, to go this far? What was she thinking?" Mrs. Hart's eyes grew misty as she spoke, a wave of sadness washing over her.

With a regretful look, she continued, "Matthew was such a good kid. In my memory, he was always smiling. He was so good to Isabella after they married."

"He didn't even want children at first. He didn't feel ready to be a father. If Isabella hadn't begged him to have a baby..."

"Ah, forget it. Let's not talk about it." Mrs. Hart waved a hand dismissively and turned away to discreetly wipe a tear. "What a mess."

Mrs. Hart had never liked Isabella, but she didn't want the Grayson family's accusation of premeditated murder to be true.

If it was... it would be an unbearably cruel fate for Matthew.

Liliana remained frozen, finding it hard to believe.

No. It wasn't that she couldn't believe it. It was that she didn't have the courage to.

Isabella had been married off back then because she was always throwing fits of jealousy over Linton. If the accusation was true...

How was that any different from her being an indirect cause of Matthew's death?

Mrs. Hart was oblivious to the turmoil in her daughter's mind.
