Revenge is My Love Language novel Chapter 280

“It was Thomas. He’s the one who betrayed Mr. Harrison Lancaster!”

The words hit Thomas like a lightning strike. He stared at Alice, standing a short distance away, frozen in disbelief.

“Thomas?” Logan’s voice cut through the tension. “Are you saying Thomas was the one who leaked Mr. Lancaster’s medical records?”

“Yes… He was the only one who had access to them. Who else could it have been?”

“I noticed something was off before, but I didn’t think much of it. Not until I found out he was working with the kidnappers. I tried to convince him to come to his senses, but instead, the kidnappers caught me…”

Logan’s tone was sharp. “If the kidnappers caught you, how did you escape? And where is Thomas now?”

Alice sobbed, her voice trembling. “I don’t know where he is—I barely managed to escape with my life! I thought he cared about me. I tried to think of everything for his sake. But when the kidnappers had me, he wanted me dead. He even tried to pin the betrayal on me… sob… he wanted me to take the fall for betraying Mr. Harrison Lancaster…”

A dull roar filled Thomas’s mind.

He looked at Alice, dazed. Was this really the girl he’d loved for so long?

The girl he’d been willing to give his life for just to save?

“Did you hear that?” Anastasia’s voice was cold, almost amused.

It was just like last time—Alice had run off, blaming Thomas for everything. Thomas died branded as a traitor to Mr. Lancaster, while Alice conveniently stayed by Harrison’s side, basking in his favor.

Anastasia hadn’t learned the truth until years later, and by the time she did, she never got the chance to tell Harrison. She died before she could.

Her frosty words snapped Thomas back to reality.

She hadn’t bothered to lower her voice, so Alice heard her from across the room and instinctively looked over.

The moment she saw Thomas being supported by someone, her expression froze.

Tears still streaked her cheeks, mingling with anger and regret—a pitiful, almost ridiculous sight.

“Thomas?”

Logan’s expression was grim as he turned to Thomas. “Thomas, Alice says you betrayed Mr. Harrison Lancaster. Do you have anything to say for yourself?”

Alice swayed unsteadily, but deep down, she still held onto hope. Thomas had risked his life for her—maybe he’d cover for her one more time?

After all, whether he died to save her or died taking the blame—what difference did it make?

If he was willing to die for her once, surely he’d be willing to shoulder her crime, too.

Her eyes sparkled as she pleaded, “Thomas, you betrayed Mr. Harrison Lancaster, didn’t you? Tell Logan I’m not lying—please!”

Meeting her gaze, Thomas felt his heart turn to ash.

Even now, after everything, Alice’s only concern was having him take the fall for her.

He glanced over at Anastasia, who looked at him with a mixture of mockery and pity. His face went numb. After a long, heavy silence, he finally spoke—
