Chapter 470
Several of Ursula’s old friends had called to check in on her. They said they were checking in, but she knew they were looking to gossip about her misfortune. During the time she was sick, not one of them had bothered to
visit.
Yorick frowned, casting a cold glance her way without uttering a word. Indeed, he knew.
Ursula met his icy stare, her voice catching in her throat, “Rick, can you help me, please?”
“You’re the only person I can think of right now.” Her tone was pleading.
She placed herself in the most vulnerable position, “For the sake of what we once had, could you help me this time? Just this once?”
She knew Yorick was over her. She wasn’t hoping to mend things between them but needed to get Cloudia out. If she didn’t, her standing with the Larkin family was as good as over, especially with Jaxon’s current attitude toward her.
First, it was Blaise, and then Jaxon.
Did they care that much about bloodlines? She had been by their side for years! Now Jaxon wouldn’t even acknowledge her.
Yorick said, “The sake of what we once had? Do you mean the feelings you manipulated into existence, feelings built on stepping over others‘ lives? Is that what you’re talking about?”
Ursula was speechless. His words echoed in her mind like a loud gong.
She stared at Yorick, listening to his frosty tone, meeting his cold gaze. She couldn’t believe he would say such things. “You really think what we had was all calculated by me?”
Calculated? What a choice of words it was! Hearing him say that made her chest tighten further. She knew Yorick had no attachment left for her. If there was even a sliver of feeling left, he wouldn’t be speaking like
this.
Yorick sneered, “Isn’t it true?”
“Just because of that car accident, you’re dismissing all my feelings for you? Is that fair to me?”
Why did she plan that accident? Wasn’t it because of him?
Because she desperately wanted to keep him. She was terrified that with Stella’s return, she would lose everything, that she would lose Yorick.
Then she orchestrated that accident.
“You almost killed her, and now you’re talking to me about fairness?” Yorick looked at Ursula with an icy glare, as if she were a stranger.

mom, dad, and brother for over twenty years, only to be told they weren’t my real family. Even you, my fiancé, were supposed to be with the Larkin’s real daughter. I was scared.” Ursula spoke with pain in her voice. The things she did to Stella were out of sheer fear.
But hearing her say ‘scared‘ didn’t soften Yorick like it used to. Instead, his gaze only grew colder. “You were scared, so you thought it was okay to kill someone?”
Ursula protested, “But Stella didn’t die, did she? She’s alive and well, and she took everything from me. Is that fair?”
However, her words only made Yorick’s gaze turn icier. At that moment, Yorick saw Ursula for who she really
was.

With a bitter laugh, he said, “The Larkin family’s troubles aren’t my concern. You reap what you sow. And you can’t blame anyone else.”
Ursula was left speechless.
Then Yorick commanded, “Driver”
Hearing the order, Orion sighed in relief, quickly rolled up the window, and started the car, giving Ursula no time to respond
Seeing Yorick not engage anymore, Ursula panicked, “Rick, Rick, listen to me…”
But the only response she got was Yorick’s car speeding away from her. The wind it kicked up was so cold, leaving her shivering.
