All Chapters of Save it, Mr Arrogant! I Dumped You After Reborn.: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Adrian POVThe warehouse light shone brightly on us and on rows of heavy crates stacked in order. Each crate was marked and sealed.“Final check,” I said calmly. “You’re sure all original items have been moved to our vault?”Across from me, Mr Kendall pushed up his glasses and nodded. “Yes, sir,” he replied. “The authentic artefacts sent to the Imperial Crown Auction were intercepted at the port as planned. Everything is safe in our private storage.”“And these?” I tapped the nearest create with my knuckles.“All replicas,” Kendall said. “High-quality fakes. Only a very trained eye could notice the difference at a glance. But with the speed and volume of that auction, most people won’t look that closely. Especially if they trust the organizers.”Everything was falling into place perfectly. The items had been switched at the port without any issues. The original pieces that were supposed to go to the Imperial Crown Auctioneer were now safely in my possession, and Mr Kendall had done ex

Evelyn POVA small smile returned to her face as she chuckled. “Oh, that. I thought it was something else.”“I’m serious,” I insisted. “I ended the engagement, and I won’t go back on my word.”“You’re confused right now, my dear. I know the stress of running your father’s business and dealing with all the internet backlash has gotten to you and—”“I’m not confused,” I stopped her midsentence. “I’m clear for the first time in my life, and I know exactly what I want. There was a time, a long time ago when I would have done anything for Adrian. When I worshipped the ground he walked on, but not anymore. That woman is gone, Margaret. That version of me doesn’t exist anymore.”“You’re making a mistake, Evelyn,” Margaret said, her friendly warmth vanishing as she stared at me with disbelief and mild irritation. “You’re letting emotion cloud your judgment.”“Maybe,” I replied. “But it’s my mistake to make and my life to live. I would appreciate it if you stopped pulling stunts like this. Sto

Isabella POVThe look on Evelyn's face when Adrian had kissed her was priceless.But that was not just the problem. Adrian had held her like she was so precious as their bodies melted together.Adrian had never kissed me like that.That was the only thing my brain kept ringing in my ears as I watched him cup the back of Evelyn's neck, pulling her close, kissing her with a certain hunger I had never seen on his face.It had taken everything in me not to scream. Adrian had been ready to bed Evelyn there and then, and when he'd pulled apart, there was no trace of remorse on his face. If anything, he'd looked angry.Now sitting at the dining table at my family's house, the following evening, I couldn't stop chewing my nails. Occasionally, my eyes would dart to my phone that was next to me on the table, and I would sigh.Adrian hadn't called the entire day.He hadn't bothered to call last night, either, after asking his driver to drop me off and saying that he needed to cool off. Not even

Evelyn POVThe moment I stepped out of the airport in Bangria City, the first thing that greeted me was the heat and the dust. The second thing I noticed was how busy the city seemed. It was only 11 am, but it looked like 3 pm on a Monday in my town.Cars were honking, people were shouting, vendors were calling out to customers, flashing their wares like incantation in the air.Bangria city was…huge. Bigger than anything I ever imagined. Tall, glass buildings rose like spears into the sky. Neon lights blinked even though it was still morning. People were hurrying as if they were being chased.I stood there with my small suitcase clutched tightly to me, holding the map that Grace had sent me, trying not to panic.I'd been to big cities before, but something about Bangria City felt different.Okay, Evelyn, deep breath. Grace said Bangria is a financial capital. You can do this.I rechecked the map. The company that had invited me—Meridian Investments— was supposed to be in the business

Evelyn POVI crouched down and, with a lot of effort, managed to get the man onto my back. He was heavy, plus it didn't help that he was unconscious. My legs shook with the effort of standing up, but I managed.By the time I made it back to the road, I was regretting every decision I'd made in the last hour.Why was I doing this? Why was I staking my life for a stranger? What kind of madness had possessed me to drag an unconscious, bleeding man through the bushes?But it was too late to question it now. I was committed.I was grateful for my natural sense of direction. Without it, I would have been completely lost in those bushes. But somehow, I found my way back to the main road.My suitcase was sitting at the side of the road, abandoned by the bus driver. I was thankful for that small mercy.I propped the man against a nearby tree and picked up my suitcase. I quickly retrieved my handbag, then I pulled out my phone and tried to order a ride. My hands were shaking so badly that I cou
