The Final Chapter of Secret Love

Jocelyn's birthday party insisted that Crystal and Octavio go together, under the pretext of getting to know the family better.

Crystal smiled bitterly. She was going to marry someone from Los Angeles soon. She did not know when she would meet the Carrillo Family next time. What was the point in getting to know them?

She wanted to refuse, but Octavio directly sent someone to bring the dress to her room and asked his assistant to say something harsh.

“Miss Hughes, Mr. Carrillo said that you must go. If you do not go, he will find someone to tie you up.”

Crystal caught a glimpse of the broken necklace out of the corner of her eye. She had already looked for many restorers, but they all said that it was too old to be repaired.

She put on the dress with a bitter heart. It turned out that this was how Octavio loved someone.

It was as if he wanted to bring all the best things in the world to her, but this person would not be her after all.

When Crystal arrived at the banquet, Octavio was touching up Jocelyn's makeup with gentle and meticulous movements.

Crystal felt depressed, so she went outside the banquet hall to get some fresh air. To her surprise, Jocelyn came up behind her with a glass of wine.

“Crystal, we are all smart people, we should all understand some things. It's uncontrollable to like someone, but it's also uncontrollable to like someone you should not like."

Jocelyn glanced at Crystal meaningfully. Crystal's eyes widened and her hands unconsciously clutched her skirt.

“I don't know what you're talking about.”

A trace of uneasiness flashed through her heart, and she was even less confident to speak.

Because she knew that from the beginning to the end, she was the one who violated social morals and ethics.

She was the sinner who should be condemned by everyone.

“You like Octavio, right? But you are his sister, Crystal. how dare you do that?”

Jocelyn's eyes narrowed dangerously, and her tone was harsh, with a hint of subtle malice.

“Today I will teach you a lesson and let you know what happens to those who miss me.”

Then, Jocelyn suddenly grabbed Crystal's arm with such force that Crystal was unable to break free.

As Crystal looked shocked, Jocelyn followed suit and pushed herself into the swimming pool.

A scream attracted everyone. The one who reacted the fastest was Octavio. His eyes were like a knife piercing into the helpless Crystal's heart.

Octavio moved quickly, almost rushing into the swimming pool, carrying Jocelyn out of the pool sideways and holding her in his arms.

“Octavio, I don't know what I did wrong. Why did Crystal treat me like this?

“I just invited her to our engagement party, and I did not expect her to be so angry. Did I do something wrong?”

Jocelyn was soaked all over, and Octavio held her in his arms, crying so adorably.

Octavio felt distressed when he saw her compromising look. He glanced at Jocelyn, whose eyes were red, and said in a cold tone, “I told you not to have unrealistic fantasies, but you could not hear me, did you?”

“Crystal, you are not a child anymore. If you bully Jocelyn, you must pay the price.

“I did not push her…." Crystal's eyes suddenly narrowed, and she was about to open her mouth to explain. 

“You still want to say that she jumped down on her own?! Crystal, do you think everyone is as scheming as you?”

Octavio interrupted violently, his cold eyes fell on Crystal, and with a gesture from him, the two bodyguards around him simply lifted Crystal and pushed her into the swimming pool.

Crystal's struggle was completely futile. In the nearly zero-degree weather, the icy cold water engulfed her and she thrashed helplessly in the water.

Even if the weather was not cold, she could not swim!

But this was still in the deep water area, and the water kept choking her throat. Her strong desire to survive made her struggle to climb up, but she was stopped by Octavio's bodyguards and pushed back into the water again.
