Chapter: Chapter 10 - Burning the broken bridges.Lucas stared at the message. For a second, he couldn’t breathe. Then his face darkened. He cursed under his breath and smashed his phone into the ground.“Who the hell is this???”“What the hell does this even mean?” he said.A moment later, he calmed down. He picked up the phone. The screen was cracked, but it still worked. The first thing he did was call Evelli. No answer.Everything was getting more messed up.Meanwhile, Evelli had arrived at the family mansion. Mary saw her … her lips curved slightly. She was surprised. “I didn’t expect you to come,” Mary said. “Sometimes you really do amaze me.”Evelli didn’t answer. She walked past her, went straight upstairs, and started packing. Mary followed her. When she saw the bags, her brows pulled together. “Are you trying to run away?”Evelli didn’t look up. “No. I’m preparing.”Mary blinked. “Preparing?” She hadn’t expected this. The worst part was Evelli wasn’t crying. She looked too calm for someone about to marry an old man.Mary f

Chapter: chapter 9 - playing hard to get.“Evelli!...what have you done?”...“You’ve been acting differently. Who have you been talking to?” Lucas demanded.He moved closer to Evelli. She took a step back, frowning. She decided to ignore him and walk away.Lucas blocked her path. It made him even more furious. He dropped his mask and yelled, “Do you know how much I’ve invested in us? Do you know everything I’ve done for you?”Evelli looked bewildered.“And you have the guts to actually resign from my company and sign with another one? Why would you do that?” Lucas yelled, demanding answers.Evelli laughed incredulously. She couldn’t believe how controlling he was.Seeing that laugh, Lucas snapped. He grabbed her wrist tightly.Evelli frowned. “Let me go. Let me go.”He leaned in closer. “Don’t push me to my limit, Evelli. I’ve been calm with you all this time, and now you do things out of the blue that don’t even benefit the both of us. I’m giving you a chance to return to HS. Or else—”Evelli looked him dead in the eye. “Or

Chapter: Chapter 8 - The Rag to clean the spilled water.Hearing this, Evelli laughed. “You must be joking, stepmother. I am not even your real daughter. Don’t expect me to make sacrifices for her.”Grandmother Laurent frowned at Evelli. “Don’t say words like that.”Evelli continued, her face coldly stern, “Your daughter running away has nothing to do with me, and neither will I live a life that isn’t meant to be mine. Either you find your lost child, or you bear the consequences yourself. Don’t drag me into your mess.”By this time, Mary’s face had turned ice cold. It was clear she was holding back. She angrily pointed her finger at Evelli. “Don’t you dare talk to me like that again in your life. Who do you think you are? Do you think I’m begging you?”Evelli scoffed. “So what do you think you’re doing right now? Anyway, I don’t care. Let your daughter bear the consequences of her actions.”Evelli had sworn to herself she would never pity Bria. She and Lucas had ruined her life — and now they wanted her to marry the second son of the Black

He stopped midway."You know already?"Evelli's silence answered his question."I don't know why. Why would they do that? I thought we all had an agreement... I think someone is pulling some strings."He paused. “Thankfully, the good news is that someone bought back your contract."Evelli couldn’t believe it. “What? Someone bought it back? Who?"“I don’t know either. But a powerful person. Knowing who isn’t important—at least y
