Save it, Mr Arrogant! I Dumped You After Reborn. のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 11 - チャプター 15

Evelyn POVI was lying in bed, finally enjoying a peaceful morning without having to wake up at four to make breakfast for someone who didn't appreciate it, when my bedroom door suddenly burst open.Before I could understand what was going on, Damien stormed in like he owned the place, his face red with anger. Before I could even sit up properly, he grabbed my blanket and yanked it off me, then grabbed my wrist hard enough to leave bruises."Are you crazy? Have you gone nuts?" he shouted, his grip tightening painfully. "Breaking off your engagement with Adrian? Do you have any idea what you've done to this family?"I stared at him in shock for a moment. Although Damien was technically my younger brother, he wasn't my father's biological son. When Victoria remarried my father, Damien was already five years old and had been spoiled rotten from birth. He was eighteen now, but still acted like a child who'd never been told no.In my previous life, Victoria had convinced my father to hand

Evelyn POVI looked up, startled to see Adrian at my bedroom door.When did he arrive? How had he come up here?

She put on that sickeningly sweet smile she saved for important people and practically bounced toward Adrian, plastering on a smile."Oh, Adrian dear!" she gushed. "Why didn’t you tell us you were coming? . We wou

Evelyn POVI sat there in the sudden silence, watching them go. Margaret slowly sank back into her chair, looking older and more tired than I'd ever seen her."I'm sorry you had to witness that," she said quietly. "My son is a fool."She reached across the coffee table and took my hand in hers. “Don’t let this upset you, dear,” she said firmly. “That girl has completely bewitched Adrian. Don’t you worry, dear. I’ll make him apologise to you properly. You’re the daughter-in-law I chose, and no one, especially that scheming Isabella, can replace you.”I looked at her kind face and felt genuinely sorry for her. She had no idea that her son was beyond saving when it came to Isabella."He's in love," I said. "It makes people do foolish things."Margaret looked at me with something like respect in her eyes. "Most women would be crying right now. Or angry. Or both."I smiled slightly. "I told you, Mrs Whitmore. I think it's better if Adrian and I end our engagement. He'll never be happy with
