Chapter: 1159

"After everything William and Stella did to you, you still want to play the hero? How pathetic. If you ask me, once she's gone, everything will be over. With your status, you could have anyone."

Marc's brows furrowed, his voice low and cold. "And what about you, Nina? Aren't you doing all this for William too?" His gaze hardened. "Tell me—how are we any different?"

Others might have missed it—but Marc saw it clearly.

Everything Nina had done was for William. Every scheme, every lie, every reckless act. With Stella gone, she believed she'd finally have a chance with him.

Marc almost pitied her. To him, it was a delusion, a dream built on desperation. But Nina didn't care about reality. She only saw what she wanted—William—and Stella was the obstacle she needed to erase.
