The Wrong Bride Chapter 34
The car ride was silent.Ryan scrolled aimlessly through his phone while Irene sat by the window, her forehead pressed against the cool glass. Neon lights and car headlights flashed past, but her mind barely registered them. Everything felt like a blur.Suddenly, Ryan’s phone buzzed with a message. He read it, brows furrowing slightly before he told the driver to change direction and gave him a new address.Irene didn’t even notice the turn until Ryan called her name softly.“Giselle.”She turned slightly, her voice quiet. “Yes?”He sighed. “Your father… he wants to have dinner with us. He’s back in New York.”Her breath caught, her chest tightening with something bitter. Father. She hadn’t seen Giselle’s father since the wedding. He hadn’t called. He hadn’t checked on her. He’d just married off his daughter like a pawn in a deal and disappeared.What am I supposed to say to him?They arrived at the restaurant, it was quiet and exclusive, with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the
The Wrong Bride Chapter 33
Irene told the driver to drop her a few blocks away from the company. She needed the walk to clear her head. As she walked down the busy street, the morning breeze did little to calm her racing heart. The moment she stepped into Carrington Corp, she felt it. Eyes. Everywhere.From the security guard at the entrance to the receptionist downstairs, people paused mid-task to look at her. Their stares burned her skin like acid. She forced her shoulders back and kept walking, pretending not to notice, though her cheeks flushed hot.What the hell…? she thought. Is there something on my face? She subtly checked her reflection on her phone screen. Her makeup was in place, hair neat. She shook her head, trying to brush it off as paranoia.She scanned her ID card and waited by the elevators, joining a small group of employees. She offered a polite smile to one woman she’d spoken to before, but the woman merely looked her up and down and turned away with a scoff. Another whispered something to
The Wrong Bride Chapter 32
Irene sat in the back of Stefan’s black SUV, her hands trembling in her lap. Her nails dug into her palms so hard she felt the skin break. But she didn’t care.Venus.Her little sister’s screams still rang in her ears. The way she’d looked at her – wide-eye with terror and pain. Irene felt like her chest was being ripped open from the inside out.The car bumped slightly as it turned onto the Carrington estate driveway. She didn’t even realise they were home until Stefan’s voice cut into the silence.“Fix your face before you go in,” he said coldly, looking at her. “You look pathetic.”She swallowed back the bile rising in her throat. Her entire body was trembling, her vision blurred with tears that refused to fall. She blinked them away quickly and nodded.He didn’t wait for a response. The door opened and his assistant pulled her out roughly by the arm. Irene stumbled slightly, catching herself before she fell. He smirked, shoving her forward.“Go,” Stefan said from inside the car, h
The Wrong Bride Chapter 31
Irene sat in the back seat of the taxi, staring out at the glowing city lights as they sped past. Her heart pounded so loudly in her chest, she wondered if the driver could hear it.Venus.Her sister’s face flashed through her mind over and over. Her laughter. Her stubbornness. Her dreams. All the things Irene had promised to protect, now slipping through her fingers because of her choices.Her palms were sweating as she clenched her fists tighter in her lap. Fear gnawed at her belly, but she forced it down. She had no choice. She would face whoever this was, no matter what it cost. She would save her sister.The taxi stopped near the dock. The driver looked back, concern etched on his lined face. “Miss… are you sure this is where you’re going?”Irene forced a small smile, though her lips trembled. “Yes. Thank you.”She paid him and stepped out into the cold night air. The wind coming off the water bit at her bare arms, but she barely felt it. She walked forward slowly, each step heav
The Wrong Bride Chapter 30
Irene’s hands trembled as she lowered her phone to her lap. Her chest rose and fell in shallow, uneven breaths. The office around her seemed to fade away, the fluorescent lights too bright.Venus… they have Venus…She swallowed hard, blinking back tears that blurred her screen. She couldn’t break down here. Not now. She needed to think. She needed to act. Fast.Desperately, she dialed the number back. Straight to voicemail. Her fingers shook as she scrolled to Venus’ contact and pressed call. It rang… and rang… and rang.No answer.Panic clawed up her throat, tightening around her lungs like a fist.“Please… please pick up…” she whispered, her voice cracking.She tried the unknown number again, praying it would go through. This time it did. Her entire body sagged with relief as she pressed the phone to her ear, but her relief was short-lived when she heard his voice again, calm and mocking.“If I called the wrong person earlier, why are you so desperate to call back?” he taunted.“Ple
The Wrong Bride Chapter 29
Inside her room, Irene leaned back against the closed door, pressing a trembling hand to her chest as silent tears slipped down her cheeks. Slowly, her knees buckled, and she sank to the ground, curling up on the carpet.You did the right thing, she told herself, wiping at her tears. You have to distance yourself from Ryan before everything falls apart.After what she and Venus discovered about Stefan’s plans, she should’ve known from the beginning. “Make him fall for you,” Stefan had said. Now she understood why — it wasn’t just about control or money. It was to kill Ryan for his own gain.She let out a shaky breath. Stefan hadn’t even hesitated to replace his lover. Poor Giselle. She’d trusted a man like him, thinking she was loved, when in the end… she was disposable. Just like Irene was now.A pang of guilt shot through her chest as she thought about Giselle. The real Giselle had no one in her corner. Her mother was dead, her father distant and absent. Even now, since her supposed
