Gossip Girl Reborn (Isabella and Alexander) novel Chapter 304

Chapter 304 A Scapegoat 

Finished 

Upon hearing this, Ines could barely stand up straight. She felt her knees buckle under her, causing her to collapse and sit on the ground. 

Isabella and Alexander were already dumbfounded by now. 

Elijah was so shocked by this revelation that he stutic for a long while before managing to say, “You… How… It was him? Wait, that’s not right. It wasn’t an accident. So, you were actually planning to sleep with Aiden? You set him up! Why? How could you…” 

A flicker of unease finally crossed Yvonne’s face, as if someone had ripped away a veil of modesty, “It wasn’t a setup. I just… L…” 

For a moment, she found herself unable to speak coherently. 

Isabella was already at her wit’s end. The constant twists and turns were just too much, causing her emotions to practically burst forth. 

Isabella So… Yvonne had gotten the wrong guy. She thought she had slept with Aiden and believed that the child was theirs. It’s no wonder she always treated Aiden a certain way! Now, I understand. Elijah had just said that he left as 

soon as he woke up back then, which is why Yvonne never found out the truth. Instead, she thought that Aiden had run away because he didn’t want to face reality. She also assumed that he definitely knew what had happened between them and that the child might be related to him. That’s why such a baffling situation occurred. 

Isabella: Then, Elijah just inadvertently revealed the truth. Wait a minute, now he wants to chicken out. Yvonne’s gotten it wrong from the start, so why should he take the risk? After all, no one knows it was him, so this is the perfect. chance for him to detach himself from the whole ordeal! What a master at passing the buck you are, Elijah! Are you planning to let Aiden take all the blame? 

Upon hearing this, the Quirks were flabbergasted. Then, as they saw Aiden coming down, their sympathetic gaze shifted from Ralph to him. 

One was being cheated on, while the other was about to be made a scapegoat. This was essentially a story about a father and son–both of whom were victims of circumstances! 

Alexander hadn’t anticipated such a comedy of mistakes. It seemed that some people only saw what they wanted to see, never questioning whether there might be something amiss. 

It’s just that… Yvonne’s had her eyes on Aiden from the start, so there really was something between them in the past. It’s just that Aiden doesn’t remember her. 

Just as Alexander was deep in thought, he heard Yvonne speak again. 

Perhaps the richness of Elijah’s expressions made her feel uneasy. 

Yvonne was quite a perceptive woman. She noticed that Elijah seemed to be more on the emotional side and somewhat chauvinistic. Thus, she figured that playing the sympathy card and seeking compassion might be more effective. 

So, when confronted with her own misunderstandings, she ultimately chose to be honest. 

“I didn’t do it on purpose,” she began, her voice trembling slightly.

closure. That’s why I took advantage of his drunken state… but I didn’t think I’d get pregnant. I never intended to let Aiden acknowledge this child of his, so I never discussed it with him. I just didn’t expect that I’d lose the poor child; instead, both of us are now in so much pain.” She sounded so stunningly pitiful that Elijah stilled momentarily. 

“What do you mean? Did you two know each other before? Was there something going on between you two?” This time, Elijah was genuinely more surpris d curious than anything else. 

“Yes, we’ve known each other for a while. We also used to see each other.” Yvonne’s voice was unprecedentedly serious. 

Isabella: What’s going on? This is nonsense! She’s definitely lying to him. Aiden doesn’t even remember her, so how could this be possible? Or has she ever undergone plastic surgery and assumed a new identity? 

Alexander cocked an eyebrow, dismissing the possibility. Perhaps it was just like that unexpected night; Yvonne could have just been delusional. 

After all, ever since they were in university, everyone in their small group was aware of each other’s lives. They also all knew that Aiden only had eyes for Ines from then on. 

The two were practically inseparable during their university days. 

The two of them eventually went to study abroad. At first, they had agreed to go to the same country, but the Deleon family later put Ines‘ in a totally different country, resulting in the two of them starting a long- distance relationship. 

Even so, they kept in touch every day until it got to the point where Aiden couldn’t take it any longer. In less than half a year, he made the decision to drop out of school just to be with Ines. With how attached he was to her, how could there possibly be room for any other woman?
