Chapter 1663:
She had questioned him back then about how much he remembered. But he denied knowing the details. Now...
Linda gave a bitter laugh, her eyes cold and accusing. “You lied to me. You know much more than you're letting
on, don’t you?”
Ernest kept his mouth shut, his jaw set.
“Answer me!” Linda, trembling with emotion, grabbed his jacket, her eyes wild and red. “Tellthe truth!”
There was no way for him to run from this now.
“That's right.” Ernest squeezed his eyes shut, a heavy sigh slipping out before he spoke again. “The night you
were with Robin... that was actually his and Elissa’s wedding night.”
Linda's mouth fell open, shock freezing her in place. “Their wedding night? Then... what about Elissa? Where was
she supposed to be?”
“Elissa, she spent that night with me.”
Eric's face went pale, caught completely off guard.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIf he was stunned, Linda was even more rattled.
She stayed perfectly still, as if she had turned to stone, her eyes wide and unfocused.
Did she hear Ernest correctly?
He reached over and rested a hand on her shoulder.
“That night... | was with Elissa. | let you down. I let her down, too.”
His confession filled the room with a heavy silence. For a moment, titself seemed to stop.
“What a joke!” Linda's sudden laughter sliced through the tension, each syllable dripping with venomous
sarcasm. “So, on her wedding night, Elissa abandoned her husband, allowed him to commit sviolation, and
then she herself brazenly crawled into your bed?”
“No.” Ernest's brows knitted together as he shook his head firmly, the denial falling from his lips for what felt like
the hundredth time.

He expelled a weighted breath and lowered his voice to a confession.
“That night, | was drugged... She didn’t approachwillingly. It was me. | pulled her towardin my altered
state.”
His Adam’s apple bobbed beneath the skin of his throat as he wrestled with the difficult explanation. “She just...
entered the wrong room by mistake.”
“What?” Linda froze, her expression crumbling into one of absolute bewilderment.
A barrage of revelations crashed into her consciousness like successive blows from a sledgehammer, shattering
every assumption she had carefully constructed.
Fragments of his previous explanations suddenly reassembled in her mind with terrible clarity, causing her lips to
quiver uncontrollably.
“That night, you were also... drugged?” she stammered. “So the child you share with Elissa... that’s the true
origin?”
“Yes.” Ernest confirmed with a single, solemn nod, his eyes never leaving her face.
A brittle, hollow laugh escaped Linda’s throat as her features contorted with disbelief.
“So all this time, every accusation | hurled at you was baseless. You never betrayed me. What transpired
between you and Elissa was merely a tragic accident, not scalculated affair?”
