Billionaire's Regret: Losing Me And Our Son - Chapter 236: Chapter 236

Thinking of Shirley made me upset with York. He had always been a dutiful son and cared about Shirley's feelings. I could not understand what he was up to.
"The truth you've been seeking—now you have your answer," York said solemnly.
I did not understand at first, but then I realized he must have been referring to the truth behind Grandma's death.
I blurted out, "So, was it her?" My heart pounded as I anxiously awaited York's response.
York did not give a clear answer. He was expressionless and just said, "June wants to see you. If you have any questions, you can ask her directly later." Without another word, he started the car
I pursed my lips, and seeing York's dark expression, I did not dare to press him further. I already had a hunch; if June wanted to see me, it was clear that Robert's suspicions were correct.
We were silent all the way. After half an hour, we arrived at a luxury apartment building in the city center.
We took the elevator to the penthouse, where York pressed the doorbell. A moment later, June opened the door for us.
I was stunned the moment I saw her. The heater was on in the room, and June was wearing a thin nightgown. Her long, wavy hair was slightly messy, and her eyes looked swollen from crying. Tear streaks covered her pale face.
She looked completely different from her usual polished and elegant appearance. While I stood there in a daze, June spoke first, her voice trembling. "Natalia, I'm so sorry."
My ears buzzed for a moment. Even though I had already guessed the answer, hearing it directly from June left me with conflicting mixed emotions.
I thought of Mary, Shirley, Ben, and Bernice... In that instant, the faces of many people flashed through my mind.
"Can you tell me why you did it?" I asked in a low voice, meeting her eyes as I came back to my senses.
June sobbed, her shoulders shaking violently. In a hoarse voice, she explained, "Back then, I wasn't even with your brother yet. I just really wanted to get close to him, so I instinctively tried to win over his family.
"So, besides taking you out for meals occasionally, I'd also call Shirley and Mary from time to time to check in on them.
"That time, I bumped into your father having an affair at the restaurant. I was so shocked. After that, when I called Mary to check in on her, I let it slip without thinking," June's voice trailed off as she confessed.
I frowned, somewhat finding it hard to understand. "What exactly did you talk about with Grandma? How did you end up with a slip of the tongue?"I asked.
June glanced at me, her eyes filled with sorrow, and said, "At the time, I told Mary that once I was with your brother, I would never betray him, and I hoped he wouldn't betray me either. And then I made a really stupid joke. I asked her if cheating is hereditary.
"Mary sensed something was off. Under her persistent questioning, I had no choice but to tell her everything..."
I had thought June was the kind of girl who was wise but unassuming. I never expected her to speak and act so thoughtlessly.
June looked at me with guilt and fear and apologized again, "Natalia, I only realized later that Mary had a heart attack that day due to my thoughtless words. I was indirectly responsible for what happened to her. I'm so sorry."
I pressed my lips together, took a deep breath, and said cooly, "Grandma is already gone. Will your apology change anything?" Hearing that, June's expression grew even graver.
