Chapter 142: You Won’t Escape

“Why are you disturbing your dad? What do you want? Why do you want to destroy his reputation? Why did you have to spoil your daddy's reputation by doing all of this? What would you gain from it, Lily?” her mother said to her as Lily felt frustrated listening to her voice.

She didn't really want to sit there listening to all her gibberish, but she had no choice, and she just scoffed at her. “He's my dad, and it doesn’t concern you what I do. I asked you to get me out of here nicely, but you didn't. You didn’t get me out of here; you just kept coming here to shout at me that I did something wrong and I want to ruin my dad's reputation. I hate you! And don’t forget you're not my real mom. I’m very sure that if my mom were here, she would have gotten me out of this place. She wouldn't even allow me to spend a night in this frustrating place,” she said as her mom just looked at her in shock.

“You don’t… You can’t even begin to imagine how much I hate you. And I’ll make sure, just let me get out of here, I will make sure to separate you and my dad. I wouldn’t allow you to stay another day with my dad. I asked you nicely to get me out of here. But you didn’t. I know you'll be very happy right now that I am not at home and I am out of the house. I promise you, you wouldn’t enjoy staying at my dad's place anymore because I'll make your life a living hell. I'll make you wish you were never born,” she said to her mom and just dropped the phone down in frustration, walking out without even allowing her mom to say anything.

But then her mom shouted and stopped her as she just angrily picked up the phone again. “What do you want? I already said what I wanted! I don't want to listen to your annoying voice!” she shouted at her mom.

But her mom just said, “Don't worry, Lily. I promise you, you'll never get out of this place. You are going to rot here in jail. I'll make your dad not help you, and he's not going to get you out of here,” she said to her as Lily just laughed at her sarcastically.

Little did she know that Lily had already contacted her dad and her dad had promised to get her out of here in just a day, she thought to herself. But she didn’t say anything to her as she just dropped the phone and walked out without answering any of her mom's calls anymore.

She immediately walked back to her prison room. Meanwhile, James was sitting in his office, writing a letter. He was writing his resignation letter in sadness. He didn’t really want to resign from his job, but he had no other choice. He had to do it for Isabella. To him, nothing was more important than Isabella right now.

He had to give up his career and his happiness just for Isabella. He realized that Alex was already catching on to the truth that he and Isabella might have had something to do with each other or they might have had a secret relationship before. The only thing that helped him was that Isabella didn’t have any of her past memories right now.

But before Isabella woke up, he had to take this step before anything big would happen. He had to resign just for Isabella's happiness, just so that Alex wouldn’t make her life a living hell and destroy him as well. He had to resign already. It was time. He promised Isabella that he was going to resign if she would just wake up, and now was the right time.

He had to do it for Isabella's happiness, he thought to himself as he kept on writing the resignation letter in sadness. He wasn't happy about what he was doing, but he just had to, he thought to himself as little droplets of tears started flowing from his eyes as he kept on writing the resignation letter.

He knew that Isabella might not be happy with the fact that he resigned because of her. He just had to do it. He knew that if he told Isabella that he was going to resign from his job, she wouldn’t let him. So he had to do it right now before Isabella woke up. He had to resign just for her happiness.

James touched himself as he finished writing the resignation letter and folded it into an envelope. Meanwhile, Alex was already planning to go to the university tomorrow to report James, though he wasn't entirely sure and didn’t have any evidence that James and Isabella really had a secret relationship behind his back. But he was keen on framing James.

He would even report what James didn’t do so that the university would just sack James once and for all, and he would believe that he had started getting his revenge little by little. While he was thinking of ways to report James the following day at the university to the authorities, his phone suddenly rang.

As he picked up the phone without even looking at the screen, he held it to his ear and then he heard Lily's voice. “Hey there! Hope you missed me,” Lily's voice rang out as Alex held the phone away from his ear and looked at the screen. He saw that it was a call from the police station and immediately knew that it was Lily calling as he already heard her voice.

“I'm getting out of here! Guess what? I'm getting out of here soon, and I'm coming for you and Isabella,” she mouthed as she ended the call without even giving Alex the chance to say a word. Alex sat there stunned.

Would Lily really be coming out of jail? That can’t be possible right.
