All Chapters of I Slapped the Plot Twist: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

The private room reeked of smoke. Music thudded through the cracked door, heavy in my chest.I stood outside while Tony, the manager, gave me the same warning for the third time."Big clients in there. Especially Mr. Martinez, the guy in the middle. Self-made. Built a public company in five years. In Averyton, he's huge. This birthday party's for his fiancée, so stay sharp. Read the room. Keep everyone happy."I smiled and nodded. "Got it. I've done this long enough. I know the rules."I took the tray, breathed in, and pushed the door open.Smoke and laughter hit me all at once.The room was packed, but everyone's attention was locked on the couple in the center.The guy lounged on the couch, sleeves pushed up to his forearms. Sharp features. Cold eyes. The kind of guy who kept people at a distance without even trying.A gorgeous woman sat beside him, leaning in to whisper something.He tilted his head to listen. The cold edge in his expression eased. Every now and then, he'd

The second I stepped out of the nightclub, I couldn't keep it together anymore.The alcohol churned in my stomach, wave after wave, leaving a bitter-sweet taste in my throat.I dug out a couple of hangover pills, swallowed them dry, and crouched against the wall.I stayed there for who knew how long.Just as I got to my feet, a cold laugh came from behind me."You've got some nerve."I turned around.Matt stood there.His face was dark, anger written all over it."Who told you to come here tonight?"I flashed him a sweet smile. "What? Didn't like it?"I rose onto my toes, looped my arms around his neck, and breathed the words into his ear."I thought you'd enjoy it."Matt went still for a second before pulling me off him.His voice turned cold. "I told you not to cross the line."I looked at him and almost laughed.Cross the line?What he really meant was that I wasn't allowed anywhere near Vanessa.I could take his money.Live in the apartment he bought for me.Whe

No one knew when he'd gotten there.He stood there, expressionless, as the color slowly drained from Vanessa's face.Matt's gaze dropped to her hand.Two seconds later, he looked up at her.His eyes were empty.Vanessa's breathing hitched.Like she'd just snapped awake, she let go of my hair."Matt, I..."Matt said nothing.The silence only made her panic more.She stole a careful glance at Matt.Then she seemed to make a decision.Tears instantly filled her eyes."Matt, you're finally here... I'm so scared..."She hurried toward him and stopped a step away.Her voice shook. "She tricked me into coming here. She kept provoking me, trying to get a reaction out of me. Then she recorded it."I don't know what happened to Elle. She's changed so much I barely recognize her anymore."I came because I was worried about her, and now it's turned into this..."She covered her mouth and started crying, like she couldn't get another word out.Matt looked at me.A long moment pa

After that day, I never contacted Matt again.My life got peaceful fast.No nightclub shifts. No sugar daddy barking orders every few days. And definitely no surprise visits from my sugar daddy's fiancée.I slept until I felt like getting up, grabbed food, went shopping, got my hair done, got my nails done, and wasted time however I wanted.It was like I'd finally pulled myself out of that disaster.Then, two weeks later, a news alert popped up on my phone.A photo filled the screen.Vanessa stood beside Matt in a custom satin wedding gown, smiling sweetly like she'd finally gotten everything she'd ever wanted.I stared at the picture, my finger hovering over the screen.A small smile tugged at my lips.So they were finally getting married.The wedding day came fast.Outside the hotel hosting Matt and Vanessa's wedding, reporters were already packed several rows deep, fighting for the best spots.I pushed through the crowd and entered the ballroom.My eyes went straight t

Vanessa looked up instinctively, then froze."Matt? Why are you stopping me?"The hand on her wrist belonged to Matt."I had security removed."Vanessa blinked, stunned. "What?""I said I pulled security. The screen was my setup too. And more than half those reporters? I invited them."He let go of her wrist and calmly pulled out a handkerchief.Then he wiped his fingers.His expression never changed.Cold. Detached. Disgusted.Like the person he'd just touched wasn't his bride on their wedding day.Like she'd gotten something on him.I stared at him.Everything he'd done before crashed through my mind.The impossible answer—the one I hadn't even let myself consider—No way.Matt still held the velvet box meant for the wedding rings.He opened it.No ring.A flash drive."Before the wedding started, every guest received a program."His voice wasn't loud, but the whole ballroom went quiet."Turn it over."Paper rustled across the room.Then came a wave of shocked
