True Love Deserves a Second Chance

It really backed up what Isabella said.

He heard Isabella crying and left her at the airport.

He gave Isabella his jacket and even went out to buy stuff for her.

This was Sebastian's way of showing he didn't care about Isabella. Joey couldn't help but sneer inside.

She walked past Sebastian without looking at him.

But after a few steps, she was hugged from behind by a strong chest.

A slightly hoarse voice came from above her head, "Joey, Grandma's not doing well. She wants to see you."

Joey broke free, smiling gracefully. "Mr. Winters, we're done. Be with whoever you want. No need to curse someone who's been good to you since childhood over a fake promise." Sebastian frowned, confused. "What do you mean? Which of my words was fake? Joey, don't slander a good person."

He looked at Joey, a bit hurt.

Joey smiled lightly. "Mr. Winters, Ms. Vale is waiting for the dinner you bought her. You should hurry."

She turned and left.

Sebastian looked at the takeout box and the jacket on Isabella, instantly getting it.

He grabbed Joey, smirking. "Joey, you're jealous."

"Why would I be jealous? Who are you to me? You don't even count as my ex, Mr. Winters. I know my place."

Sebastian's cold fingers lightly touched Joey's lips.

He chuckled, "You've got a sharp tongue. I really want to teach it a lesson. But before Ms. Blackwood convicts someone, shouldn't she hear the victim's plea?"

He glanced at Dominic behind him. "Throw that jacket in the trash."

Dominic obeyed, smiling at Isabella. "Ms. Vale, be careful with words, but more with clothes. Mr. Winters doesn't like anyone but Ms. Blackwood touching his things."

He took the jacket from Isabella and tossed it in the trash.

Isabella was furious, tears in her eyes. "Sebastian, I'm sorry. I was just cold and didn't think much of it. Mrs. Blackwood, please don't misunderstand."

She looked so pitiful, like everyone was bullying her.

Sebastian looked down at Joey, a smile on his lips. "You thought I came back for her, so you decided my promise to you was void, right?"

"Isn't that the case?"

"Ms. Blackwood, convicting someone without evidence isn't worthy of your title as a legal elite.

My mom and grandma were in a car accident. Isabella called me with Theodore's phone.

I didn't leave you for her, and I've never had any contact with her.

That jacket was left in my mom's hospital room.

I didn't expect her to wear it.

Does this clear my guilt, Ms. Blackwood?"

He rubbed Joey's head, a hint of indulgence in his eyes.

He could tell Joey was jealous and all her anger was because she thought he was with Isabella.

The heavy weight on his heart finally lifted.

As long as he knew Joey still had feelings for him, he feared nothing.

Joey, knowing she was wrong, fluttered her eyelashes but caught a flaw in Sebastian's words. "Your grandma is on her deathbed, and Mr. Winters still has time to chat with me about this?" Sebastian was so mad he laughed.

He pulled her close, his handsome face leaning down.

"Joey, your sharp mouth needs to be dealt with. I'll remember this and pay you back one day!

My grandma has a broken thigh bone. She doesn't want to eat, just wants to see you. Believe me now?"

Aurora had helped Joey before. Hearing she was hurt, Joey couldn't stay unmoved.

She nodded and agreed, "Take me to see her."

Sebastian's fatigue vanished at her words.

He held Joey's hand and walked to the upstairs ward.

Isabella, ignored all this time, was about to lose it.

To her, Sebastian had always been cold and aloof. No matter how she pursued him, he stayed indifferent.

His kindness to her was just out of gratitude.

But just now, he humbled himself for Joey. To make Joey happy, he threw the suit jacket in the trash.

Something she touched, he treated like garbage.

This was a huge humiliation for Isabella.

She glared at Joey's back, gritting her teeth.

When Joey walked into the ward, the butler Timothy Hayes was sighing.

Looking at the untouched food, he shook his head.

Seeing Joey and Sebastian at the door, Timothy looked like he'd seen a savior.

He immediately walked over and said, "Mr. Winters, Aurora still hasn't eaten. This can't go on. She's old and just had surgery. Her body can't take this."

Joey walked over to Aurora's side.

Seeing Aurora's closed eyes, she gently spoke, "Aurora, it's Joey. How are you?"

Hearing her voice, Aurora's eyes suddenly opened wide.

She stared at Joey's smiling face for a long time.

Then, she grabbed Joey's hand, tears welling up. "Joey, I'm sorry. I didn't protect you and the child, causing you so much suffering. I can't forgive myself."

Her tears flowed, showing all her guilt and sorrow.

She wanted to avenge Joey and the child, to punish Cordelia.

But at the critical moment, Cordelia used her life to protect her, making it impossible for her to punish.

One was her daughter-in-law who saved her life and is still in a coma, and the other was the woman Sebastian always liked who had suffered a lot.

Aurora faced the hardest choice of her life.

She felt that no matter what she chose, it would be wrong.

Joey understood Aurora's meaning. While wiping Aurora's tears, she gently comforted her. "Aurora, in my relationship with Sebastian, there was never a right or wrong. You don't need to feel so guilty. It's all in the past. Let's look forward." Hearing this, Aurora cried even harder. "Are you really going to go with that guy from the Knight Family? Joey, can you give Sebastian another chance for the help I gave you last time? Let him compete fairly with that guy. If he fails, we won't force it. Is that okay?"

Aurora, a formidable figure in the business world all her life, had never begged anyone like this.

Facing her plea, Joey felt her throat tighten.

She couldn't refuse an elderly person who had once treated her sincerely.

Just as she hesitated, the ward door was pushed open.

Dominic ran in, panting. "Mr. Winters, Ms. Vale is on the hospital rooftop. She says if she can't see you, she'll jump."
