The Ex-Wife You Tossed, Now a Billionaire’s Queen のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 91 - チャプター 100

In a men’s boutique in a Boston mall, Delilah stared Evelyn down with zero mercy. She jabbed straight at the one thing Evelyn had been dodging all afternoon.“I don’t get you. Why are you so hell-bent on buying a suit for Liam? He’s gonna be an engineer. He’ll be on construction sites most of the time. How often is he even gonna wear a suit? Come on, give me a real reason.”The words knocked out the last of Evelyn’s defenses. Delilah folded her arms, looking at her like she could read every thought in her head.“This is for him, right? And if it’s not for him, I’m not helping you pick. No one else fits the profile.”Evelyn gave up. “Fine. Yes. It’s for him. Happy? Now answer me—does this tie even look good or not?”Delilah’s smirk said everything. “See? Why didn’t you say that from the start?”Evelyn felt her cheeks heat. “Just tell me if it looks good. If it does, I’m paying.”Delilah picked up the neutral-colored tie and examined it. “Yeah, this would look good on Sebastian Reed. Th

That morning, Evelyn hadn’t even managed to sit up straight when Sebastian slipped a hand around her waist.“Let me go,” she muttered, her voice still weak.“Later. After breakfast,” he said casually, handing her a glass of warm milk.With no real choice, Evelyn ended up sitting on his lap. The moment she shifted a little to get comfortable, his arm locked around her waist.“Don’t move,” he whispered.“I literally didn’t move,” she snapped back.The words died midway when she suddenly froze. It took a couple of seconds for her body to confirm what she was feeling. Heat crawled up her cheeks, irritation piling on top of embarrassment.“You’re kidding me. Again? Sebastian, seriously...”He’d already exhausted her last night, to the point she was shaking just trying to walk. Yet somehow, he still had the nerve, and stamina, to react like that now. It made zero sense.Sebastian shot back with infuriating confidence. “In this situation, you sure you don’t wanna reflect on yourself a bit?”

Evelyn was still wrestling with her temper when her mother, Susan, stared back at her with a defensive glare. Susan’s voice jumped an octave, like she was trying to hide something everyone already knew.“What’s that supposed to mean?” she snapped.Evelyn didn’t even blink. “It means you’re old enough to know better, but you still fall for scams. Worse, you help the scammer count the money.”“You haven’t even met the man. What makes you so sure?” Susan’s voice wavered with resentment.“Because I’m your daughter. I know you better than anyone.” Evelyn took a long breath. “How many boyfriends have you had over the years? How many were actually reliable? The worst one almost got you to sell Liam.”Color rose in Susan’s cheeks. She wasn’t even fifty yet, still well-kept, always presentable, always glowing. She loved dressing up, going dancing, socializing. Men flocked to her for years, most of them smooth-talking losers with nothing to offer but trouble. All of it had left scratches on Eve

Harry froze for a moment. “What do you mean?”Delilah leaned back, looking irritated. “Don’t look at me like that. I’m not the one who said it. The land registry literally lists the owner’s name, and it was Evelyn’s carefree stepsister who dug everything up.”She told him exactly what had happened during the Reed family dinner. Harry listened with a tense face, regret tightening every angle of it.“That’s on me,” he said quietly. “I wasn’t careful enough. Madison went too far accusing Evelyn like that. We could actually sue her.”Delilah shook her head sharply. “Evelyn doesn’t want anything to do with the Callahans anymore. She’s not suing anyone. Don’t make things harder for her.”The smell of grilled meat drifting from the restaurant turned her stomach. Her face paled, and she pushed her plate away.“I’m done. I can’t eat another bite. I’m heading out.”“Delilah…” Harry called.But she was already up, not even glancing back as she walked out. The second she reached the mall corridor

Evelyn stared at her plate just as Sebastian set his utensils down with a hard clatter. The air at the dinner table instantly cooled, like an invisible wall had gone up between them. Liam, who’d been eating quietly, froze mid-bite. Silence dropped over the room.When Liam eventually stepped out, Evelyn was the only one left at the table. Sebastian had already walked off without a word.“Where’d he go?” Liam asked when he came back and saw the empty chair.“He left. You wanna catch up to him? He’s not far.”Liam frowned at the door. “Did you two fight again?” He pulled out a chair, sounding exhausted. “I swear, I don’t get people like you. If you like each other, why the hell are you still fighting?”“Liam, I’ve told you a thousand times. We’re not dating.”He shrugged, unimpressed. “My roommate says when girls get mad, they act exactly like you. First they deny anything’s going on, then they say nothing happened, then they pretend they don’t even know the guy.”Evelyn’s hand froze hal
