Evelyn POV

“Yes. Stand beside a man. Adrian is still pursuing you. That alone should tell you something.”

"A friend of mine casually mentioned that you've been offending a lot of key players in the business space in Crescent Harbour," she continued, moving closer to my bed. "She thinks it might have been a business rival who did this to you. You know how dangerous it is for a woman to be running a company alone."

"I'm not alone," I said quietly.

"But you could have support," Victoria said, her voice taking on that cajoling tone that made me want to scream. "Adrian is still pursuing you, you know. Despite everything, he still wants you back. That shows true love, Evelyn. A man willing to forgive and move forward. His heart still belongs to you."

I felt my face flush with anger at the mention of Adrian’s name.

"I thought you'd found a perfect replacement for me," I said coldly, interrupting her. "Emma or whatever her name is."

Victoria's face colored with embarrassment. "That's not the

  • Save it, Mr Arrogant! I Dumped You After Reborn.   Chapter 111: The suspect.

    Gabriel POVI stood and watched until Evelyn’s car disappeared from my sight.I was so hard.It had taken me all the restraints I could muster not to unleash my want on Evelyn. I wanted her to come to me, not the other way around, and everyone knows I do not force women. Yet, I was desperate to get to the bottom of what was going on.I sighed and walked back to the private room, taking my position on the chair in the corner. I picked up my phone, stared at the picture Evelyn had spent time staring at, and placed it on my thigh.It was Rowan’s picture.I’d seen the way recognition had flashed through her eyes when she saw the picture. And then this uncanny resemblance between I and Rowan. This wasn’t the first time.Whenever I meet random people, the first thing they always ask is whether we're brothers. For years, I’d dismissed it with a chuckle or a joke about how Rowan was my soul mate, but recently, people began mentioning it more often.Two people could look alike, but their habit

  • Save it, Mr Arrogant! I Dumped You After Reborn.   Chapter 110: The private conversation II

    Evelyn POVI followed Gabriel to the private room like a sheep to a slaughterhouse.At this point, my brain was jumping with anticipation at the promise of whatever Gabriel had mentioned, and I could barely function. There was no part of me telling me to turn back, too. I wanted to experience it all.When we got to the private room, my heart raced with anticipation as we stepped inside and he closed the door behind us. I heard the soft click of the lock, and my anticipation grew.The room was dimly lit, and I could barely make out the shape of the furniture. Gabriel flicked on a small lamp on a nightstand, illuminating the space enough for me to see. It was cosy, with a large bed that took up most of the floor space. I watched as Gabriel leaned against the wall, his gaze fixed on me.For a moment, we stared at each other, the tension between us palpable. Then, he stepped forward and began to undo the buttons on my blouse. My breath hitched as he exposed more of my skin to the cool air

  • Save it, Mr Arrogant! I Dumped You After Reborn.   Chapter 109: The private conversation.

    Evelyn POV"You look different," he said, sitting back down across from me. "More at peace, maybe. Or less stressed. I'm not sure which.""I just had a difficult conversation with my stepmother and stepbrother," I said, deciding to be honest. "But I think I needed to have it. Some boundaries have been set since this shenanigan with the company, but I had to reinforce them again because cracks were becoming visible. I won’t bore you.”Gabriel nodded approvingly. "Good. Boundaries are important. People will walk all over you if you let them."A waiter appeared, and Gabriel ordered for both of us—a light salad for me and something more substantial for him. He'd clearly anticipated that I might still be recovering and needed easy-to-digest food."I wanted to meet with you because I have some information," Gabriel said once the waiter had left. "About the bombing."My heart rate picked up. "You found out who did it?""Not yet," Gabriel said, and I heard frustration in his voice. "But I'm v

  • Save it, Mr Arrogant! I Dumped You After Reborn.   Chapter 107: The confrontation.

    Evelyn POVI was having one of those dreams where I was falling, my stomach lurching with the sensation of weightlessness, when a soft knock on my bedroom door pulled me back to consciousness.I'd woken up once already this morning but had decided the bed was too comfortable to leave. So I drifted back to sleep, hoping for just a bit more rest.This was the third day since I was discharged from the hospital, and if someone had told me I would be glued to my bed for three days and only stand to bathe and eat, I wouldn’t have believed the person.I’d called my doctor to complain, and he said it was my body recovering from the stress of the surgery and everything, and I shouldn’t fight it.I yawned and stretched languidly on the bed. My body still felt heavy and sore in a few places, but for the first time in days, I wasn’t in pain.The knock came again, this time more persistent."Come in," I called out groggily, yawning and stretching my still-sore muscles.The door opened, and Victori

    Evelyn POVAfter he left, Belle grabbed my arm and practically screamed."Oh my God, Evelyn!" she squealed, bouncing slightly. "I wouldn't blame you one bit for having that reaction. Vincent looked absolutely dashing. The man could make a potato sack look good."I laughed despite myself, shaking my head at Belle's enthusiasm.We were finishing up the last of the packing when there was another knock on the door.When it opened, Gabriel stepped inside, carrying a beautiful bunch of white and yellow daisies.He looked calm, as always, dressed in dark clothes that made him seem both approachable and dangerous at the same time."I apologise for not visiting since the last time," Gabriel said, coming over to me. "How are you feeling? Are you recovering well?""I'm much better," I said, noticing the concern in his expression. "The doctors say I'm healing faster than expected. What about you? How have you been?""Busy," Gabriel said, a slight smile playing at his lips. "But good. More importa
