The Billionaire's Obsession: Reborn For Revenge のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 21 - チャプター 30

Chapter 22 Emelia's Pov “Emelia, can I talk to you? I promise I won't take too much of your time.” Nora’s voice was as soft as ever, the very picture of a concerned sister. She stood at my door, all delicate innocence and forced modesty, like someone who'd walked straight out of a bad drama, hands clasped neatly in front of her, shoulders curved inward like she was scared I’d scream at her.I stared at her, silent. Part of me wanted to slam the door in her face and be done with it. But another part of me was curious to see what she had planned for me. So I stepped aside, gesturing silently for her to come in.“Thank you.” She murmured, stepping into my room with careful grace. Her eyes flitted around, taking in the room like she was judging it. I did not miss the fast glimmer of anger and jealousy that flickered through her eyes but I said nothing in regards to it. I didn’t offer her a seat. She took one anyway, placing herself delicately on the edge of my bed like she was trying n

Chapter 24 Emelia's Pov “You don’t want her punished?!” Edward growled, “She violated the trust I gave her when I let her back into this home!” “She probably only did it because she was desperate.” Nora whispered softly, “I mean, she hasn’t been doing so well lately, mentally and family law is too…” “Trust?” I laughed, cutting Nora off, “Don't delude yourself Mr RedField, you have never trusted me, not from the beginning so don't act like you're even trying to give me the benefit of doubt… I didn’t take the jewelry.” I repeated, louder this time. Edward’s eyes were bloodshot now, “You dare lie to my face? After being caught red-handed?” “Caught with something planted in my room.” I corrected. He stepped forward, furious, “Enough. Hold her down.” Two guards grabbed my arms. I didn’t struggle. I just laughed. “Oh, you’re laughing now?” Amelia sneered, “Still think this is a game, you ungrateful snake?” Edward turned to another servant, “Bring the whip from my study.” The at

Chapter 26 Emelia’s Pov “No!! Stop it!” The shriek tore from Nora’s throat like a wounded animal. She bolted toward me, but I didn’t stop. I picked up the stone again and slammed it down, once, twice, three times, until the glittering gems cracked and dented beneath the force of my rage.I could hear them screaming behind me. But I didn’t care. I didn’t stop.“Stop her!”“Emelia, enough!”Hands grabbed my arms, trying to pull me back, but I broke free with the strength of fury and pain. I dropped the stone and went to the gold necklace Nora loved most. I picked it up, crushed it under my heel until it twisted and bent like my soul had been under their hands.“Stop it!” Nora wailed, “That’s my gift! Don't break it anymore! Stop it!” “Now you care?” I spat, stepping back, panting. My arms were trembling. My vision was going blurry from the blood loss, but I didn’t care, “You cared when it was your necklace, but when it was my body being torn, none of you flinched. None of you fucking

Chapter 28 Emelia's Pov “My birth parents did this to me.” I said to them and all of them paused, neither moving but then, they all laughed. At the same damn time. “Emelia, I thought that at this time, you were finally going to say the truth but it seems I thought too highly of you again. How dare you lie to us? The RedField's had personally come to take you from the orphanage and even if they didn't like you, or even if they treated others better than you, they'd never do this to their child.” She pointed towards the bandages around my body, “Like I said, that's abuse! Maybe it's because you can't see it, but the amount of damage done on your back is something a parent will never do to their child! They are the people who gave birth to you!” “If you knew that you weren't going to believe me in the first place, why did you ask?” “Because I had no idea that your answer was going to be absurd! You…” “Miss, do you have the number of any family member we can call to pay for your bil

Chapter 30 Emelia's Pov “Emelia, you're back.” Jeremy said, stepping forward, “Since you're here now, follow me to apologise to Nora, I'm sure she'll forgive you.” He reached out to hold my arm, and I almost laughed out loud in disbelief, was he just expecting me to follow him obediently?!“What do you take me for Jeremy? A fool?” “Emelia…” “Apologising to Nora? I don't think that's going to be possible, and if I were you, I would be thinking of how to close the deal with Gordl Inc. You're not the only one who is fighting to sign an agreement with them.” I crossed my arms, smiling at his shock. “How did you know about the deal with Gordl Inc, who told you about it?!” He held both my arms, squeezing them. I bit back the wince that bubbled in my throat. “Let go of me.” My voice came out quiet. But Jeremy didn’t move. His grip only tightened, his panic flashing into something uglier, fear turning into violence, like it always did with men like him.“I said, let. Go.” This time, my
