บททั้งหมดของ My Horrible Ex-Husband Can't Move On, But I Can: บทที่ 101 - บทที่ 110

A bitter chuckle escaped her. "Well then, by that logic, your precious Sophia being detained for a few extra days is minor too!" Her tone sharpened, each word cutting clean. "Here's the bottom line, Damian. Unless your sister admits what she did and apologizes to me in front of everyone, you can forget about using your connections. Sophia isn't going to be released."Damian’s face twisted with fury at Amelia’s icy retort. His voice dropped to a spiteful snarl. "Why do you always have to turn the smallest thing into a circus? If it weren't for that bastard backing you, you'd have never kept me from bailing Sophia out! Amelia, don't kid yourself, you survived on your adopted parents before we got married, and after that, you leaned on me. Without the Wright, you'd be nothing. I'm the one who handed you those settlements, do you really think you'd last a day as just another washed-up housewife?"He spat the next words, each one dripping with contempt, "Since our divorce, you've done nothi

"You expect me to apologize? And who do you think you are to demand such a thing? I've done nothing wrong, so why on earth should I bow my head and say sorry?" Amelia’s voice was resolute, tinged with an unyielding chill.Her words struck Damian sharply, flooding his pride with burning humiliation that contorted his features in fury. "Very well! If your intention is to provoke the Madrigals and create a spectacle, then I will let you have it!" he snapped with biting finality.Turning swiftly, Damian commanded Eve, "Find security immediately. Inform them Amelia is attempting to sneak in and cause disruption."Eve didn't waste time. She shot off like an arrow, her lips curled in a victorious smirk.At last, Amelia was about to face the consequences. After countless times being outwitted, this was her moment to claim the upper hand, and the thrill only made her grin wider.Damian’s patience thinned dangerously as he fixed Amelia with a last warning. "Are you certain you won't just apologi

Eve resolved that once she married into the Madrigal family, Amelia would pay dearly. With these thoughts, her eyes blazed with fury, and something far darker.“You pass as well," Amelia replied with a chuckle, ignoring Eve’s seething rage.Martha hesitated, staring down at her palm. She raised her hand several times but couldn't summon the courage to slap herself.“I'll go!" Julius stepped forward suddenly. Without hesitation, he struck himself twice. The force behind it left his jaw twitching and his cheek flaming red.Anna followed right after, not waiting for a beat. Her slaps were loud and swift, echoing off the nearby walls. Both Julius and Anna glared at Amelia, their eyes full of venom. "Is that satisfactory?"Amelia gave a slow blink, utterly unmoved. "Barely," she said, stretching the word with a bored lilt.Then, Amelia turned her attention to Martha. Elegant, glittering in high-end designer threads and dripping with diamonds, Martha looked like a queen. But now, she was the

Even though Amelia stood half-hidden in the shadows, Emily spotted her instantly, drawn to her like a moth to a lantern's glow.To Emily, Amelia was simply radiant.“Ah!" Carla shrieked as wine splashed over the rim of her glass, droplets narrowly missing her pristine white dress. If she hadn't gripped the glass tightly, it would've crashed to the floor, wine everywhere.“Can't you watch where you're going?" She snapped, shooting a venomous glare at Emily.Eve eyed Emily in the pink princess gown, her envy sharpening as she took in Emily’s delicate, doll-like beauty and wide, luminous eyes. That dress, though, was exactly the kind of outdated costume she hadn't touched in years.Eve sneered inwardly. Tacky as hell. Her face twisted with disgust. Who let this bumpkin into the Madrigal family's party? Was this woman so broke that she had to drag out antique hand-me-downs? Was she just another Amelia, someone desperate to weasel her way into high society?Unable to speak, Emily raised her

Eugene turned to the assembled crowd, his face giving nothing away as he delivered his statement. "Effective immediately, any relationship or agreement between the Madrigal family and the Ford family is finished. Completely over."Shock rippled through the room, the weight of Eugene’s words settling heavily over everyone.Clearly, Emily had major pull in the Madrigal family. For the Madrigal family, cutting ties with the Fords was a price they seemed more than willing to pay.Marcus and his wife, late to the commotion, arrived just in time to hear Eugene’s proclamation, and looked as if they might faint from the shock.Fury blazing in his eyes, Marcus rounded on Carla. "You fool!" he roared, bringing his hand down hard across her cheek in front of everyoneThe sound of the slap echoed, forcing Carla’s head to the side and leaving blood trickling down her lip. That blow had real weight behind it.No protest left Carla’s lips. Her thoughts spun in silent panic, finally realizing everythi
