All Chapters of Save it, Mr Arrogant! I Dumped You After Reborn.: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

On my wedding day, my husband abandoned me to marry his childhood sweetheart, while I was tortured to death.~~~Today was supposed to be the best day of my life. Instead, I was bound and bleeding in a warehouse, watching through a grimy window as Adrian Whitmore married the woman I’d spent three years trying to become.Thwack!The kidnapper's hand struck across my face, sending stars dancing across my vision."You worthless thing," he snarled, grabbing my hair. "I can't believe Mr Whitmore won't even pay a measly million-dollar ransom. We really misjudged this one. We shouldn't have listened to that bitch and taken this job. This was supposed to be easy money!"Dazed and terrified, I struggled to understand what was happening. Why had I been kidnapped? Today was supposed to be my wedding day, the day I finally became Mrs Evelyn Whitmore after three years of devotion, three years of moulding myself into the perfect wife for him."Please," I pleaded weakly, my voice cracking. "I'm Adri

Evelyn POV“You want to know if I’m here to claim my prize?” I asked with a false sweetness in my voice. “There’s my reply.”The engagement rings hit Adrian’s chest with satisfying force before clattering to the marble floor, the sound echoing through the suddenly silent ballroom like gunshots.Every conversation stopped. Every champagne glass paused halfway to painted lips. The only sound was my steady breathing and the soft drip of pool water from my ruined dress.“Yes, I’m here to claim my prize,” I said with a calm smile. “You see, I not only retrieved your ring, but also returned mine along with it.”He slowly raised his eyes, looking up and down at me with contempt that he didn’t bother to hide.“Evelyn,” he said icily, his voice cutting through the hushed atmosphere, “if you’re going to lose your mind, can you first read the room?. Today is the engagement party you desperately begged for.”Desperately begged for.The words were explicitly chosen to remind everyone present that

Evelyn POVI looked at Adrian, drinking in every detail of his perfectly sculpted face—the sharp jawline, the aristocratic nose, the steel-grey eyes that had once made my heart race. Now, all I could see was the disgust that filled those beautiful features whenever he looked at me.In my previous life, I had worked so hard to earn even a fraction of his warmth. I’d learned company management from scratch, studying late into the night until my eyes burned, all so I could be helpful in his business empire.I’d taught myself to cook his favourite dishes, spending hours in the kitchen perfecting recipes that would make him smile. To please Adrian, I’d even taken care of his mother, Margaret. I was available at her beck and call twenty-four hours a day, hoping that maternal approval would somehow translate into his affection.I thought I could warm Adrian’s heart by being devoted. I’d believed that if I just tried hard enough, sacrificed deeply enough, loved thoroughly enough, he would eve

Evelyn POVAs soon as I pulled into the driveway of the Bennett family mansion – our house - I could hear Victoria's car screeching to a stop behind me. She slammed her door so hard I was surprised the windows didn't shatter, and before I'd even stepped out of my own car, she was already screaming."Have you lost your mind?" Do you even realise what you’ve done? "What was that display back there? Calling off the engagement in front of everyone? Are you crazy?"I didn’t answer her. I didn’t even look at her. Instead, I walked straight toward the front door, already tugging at the diamond earrings on my ears. One by one, I stripped the jewellery off my body, the gifts carefully chosen to mimic Isabella’s style.They suddenly felt heavy like tiny anchors trying to drag me back to a life I never wanted."Don't you dare walk away from me!" Victoria shrieked, her heels clicking loudly on the stone pathway as she tried to catch up. "Do you have any idea what you've done? The Whitmore family

Evelyn POVThe sound echoed through the room sounding like a gunshot. Adrian's head snapped to the side from the force of it, and for a moment, everything was completely still except for the distant sound of music from the club below.When Adrian slowly turned his face back toward me, there was a red handprint on his cheek and something like shock in his eyes. He'd clearly never expected me to fight back."How dare you," I said, my voice shaking with three years' worth of suppressed rage. "How dare you think you can intimidate me into apologizing for finally standing up for myself."Adrian touched his cheek, staring at me like he was seeing me for the first time. "You hit me.""And I'll do it again if you don't back away from me right now," I said, surprised by the hardness in my voice despite the way my heart was racing.For a long moment, we just stared at each other. Adrian with his hand on his reddening cheek, and me pressed against the wall but no longer feeling trapped. Somethin
