True Love Deserves a Second Chance
Chapter 69 You Are Not Worthy of My Love

Sebastian stood at the door in a black suit, looking serious.

Behind him was a disheveled Dennis.

Sebastian's intense gaze lingered on Joey for a few seconds before he handed Dennis over to the clerk and took a seat in the audience.

With the clerk's assistance, Dennis made his way to the witness stand and spoke weakly, "Your Honor, I'm Dennis from the Winters Group's tech department. I'm the one who deleted the video. "But it wasn't Mrs. Blackwood who told me to delete it; it was Mrs. Winters, the vice president of Winters Group. She threatened to fire me if I didn't.

"At the time, I was in debt from buying a house and planning a wedding. I couldn't afford to lose my job, so I agreed.

"But I kept some evidence; I edited the video and planned to sell it to Joey.

"Somehow, it got stolen, and I was beaten up. Joey saved me, and I agreed to testify for her.

"Then those people found me again and locked me in a small dark room.

"Thanks to Daphne's people, who rescued me just in time.

"Your Honor, even though the USB drive was stolen, I had already uploaded the video to my cloud. Here are my account and password." The judge had the video played.

The video was clear, and the conversation was audible.

Sebastian sat in the audience, his brows furrowed as he watched.

This was his first time formally facing this matter.

He always believed Joey was innocent, but seeing the video brought him indescribable pain.

He heard Isabella's provocation and saw Joey's calm response.

When the scalding coffee was thrown at Joey, Sebastian's heart clenched, and he couldn't help but exclaim, "Joey!"

Luckily, Joey dodged in time. Otherwise, the coffee would have splashed directly on her face, causing who knows what.

Next, he saw Joey still in shock when Isabella fell backward into the glass cabinet.

Joey tried to help her, but Isabella dodged away.

The video clearly showed Joey never touched Isabella.

The whole thing was a setup by Isabella.

Seeing this, Sebastian felt like someone was stabbing his heart with a knife.

It hurt.

No matter how tricky the opposing lawyer's questions were, Joey never faltered.

But when she saw the video proving her innocence, she cried.

Her beautiful eyes filled with hot tears, but her lips curled into a bitter smile.

She won.

She proved her innocence.

She also gave Isabella a harsh lesson.

The Vale Family compensated her for emotional distress and apologized on the spot.

Isabella was bailed out due to illness.

Julian and Sophia flanked Joey as they walked out.

Sophia was so excited she kept bouncing.

"Today was a great victory. We need to celebrate. I'll treat you to the most luxurious restaurant in City B. We won't go home until we're drunk.

"It's so satisfying. At the critical moment, that bastard Sebastian still showed some conscience and found Dennis for you.

"But even so, I won't forgive him for what he said.

"Fuck! Joey was devoted to him for three years, and he took it for granted. Just thinking about it makes me angry!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Sophia looked up and saw Sebastian standing in front of them with a stern face.

The man looked at Joey with intense eyes.

His voice was hoarse, "Joey, a word, please."

He reached for her hand, but Sophia blocked him.

"What do you want? You saw the truth and now you want to apologize to Joey? Mr. Winters, save it. When you dragged her to donate blood to Isabella, you already hurt her.

"Do you even know she couldn't donate blood then? She almost died in the hospital trying to save her.

"And you, you never believed her.

"Have you thought about how Joey felt when that recording was released?

"Three years of dedication, and you took it for granted.

"Now I'm telling you, Joey doesn't care about you.

"From now on, leave her alone. Joey, let's go!"

Sophia was straightforward. If it weren't for Sebastian's status, she would've kicked him a few times.

She pulled Joey to leave, but Joey dodged away.

Joey looked at Sophia calmly, "Sophia, you and Julian wait for me in the car. I need to talk to him."

Sophia patted her hand, "Don't be polite to him. He's not worth it!"

Then she turned and left.

Watching them walk away, Joey turned her gaze to Sebastian.

Her expression was cold, "Mr. Winters, thank you for replaceing Dennis. I misunderstood you about him, and I apologize."

"Joey, what happened on the day of the blood donation? Why didn't you say anything?"

As you reach the final pages, remember that 000005s.com is your destination for the complete story. Share the joy of reading with others and spread the word. The next chapter is just a visit away! Joey sneered, "I said I couldn't donate, but you forced me, saying I was being heartless."

"You should have told me the reason. I wouldn't have made you go."

"Really? If I told you the reason, would you have believed me? If you hadn't seen Dennis's video, you'd still think I pushed Isabella.

"Sebastian, think carefully. Since Isabella came back, have you ever believed me about anything?

"I used to feel very sad, but now I think, isn't this how a sugar daddy should treat his pet? There's no trust between us.

"Since that's the case, let me go. I won't affect your relationship with Isabella. Okay?"

Joey spoke calmly, her face devoid of sadness or longing.

Sebastian pulled her into his arms, his eyes glinting crimson as he glared at her.

He wanted to tell her he never doubted her.

But facing such an aggressive Joey, his nature took over his reason.

"Joey, are you better than me? Didn't you treat me as a stand-in for someone else, wanting to fly away to replace your 'nine'?"

Joey's breath hitched, and she asked coldly, "How do you know about him?"

"You said it yourself when you were drunk. Isn't it true? You loved him for seven years, and you projected all your longing for him onto me. In these three years, all your kindness to me was because of him. You don't love me at all." Joey felt intense heartache.

This was the man she had loved for three years.

Not only did he not believe her in other matters, but he also doubted her love for him.

She truly felt that her years of deep affection had been wasted.

Joey raised her head, trying not to let the tears fall.

Her voice trembled slightly, "Sebastian, I'll consider these past three years as just wasting my time. You want my love? You don't deserve it!"
