The Price Of A Broken Engagement Novels & Stories

"Your company's bankrupt now, what do you have to return to me? You might as well print investment tickets and drop them," Emily pouted reluctantly. James was trembling with anger, struggling to contain it. He asked for the last time, "Emily, even if my dad has no money and is left to die, you're not planning to return the engagement money, are you?" With red eyes, Emily surprisingly put on an aggrieved look, as if he was aggressively pushing her. "A starving camel is bigger than a horse. I don't believe your family is missing that small sum of engagement money..."

Faint smile appeared on his lips. “Anyway,” I murmured, “there is always an ending in every craziness. Just like in my case, I’ll divorce my husband after five months.” Krrkllllsssss! The loud sound of the breaking glass snapped me out from the drunkenness. I looked at the guy who accidentally broke the glass beside him as he stared at me with widened eyes. “You… You will divorce your husband?” he stammered and gawked at me as if his whole life defends on my answer.

Well, it's nice at some point, but it doesn't change the fact that she's still like a leech sucking the money of her rich prey. "I really don't know why that man turned out to be like that," Mang Jose commented. That's when I couldn't hold back and asked him. "Why, Captain? What do you mean that Talitha's father is not like that?" I asked. "Ah, because Janus is a good man," answered the old man. "However, One day, Agatha said Janus has hurt her physically. Then, when Janus was always drunk, he would slap his wife, and that would turn into a beating. Until he beat not only Agatha but also Talitha. So Agatha decided to break up with him," he added.

All her belongings were gone as if she had never existed. "No…" Out of nowhere, Kaden felt a pain shoot up from the depths of his soul. His wolf roared and thrashed in an attempt to break free from his body. It was clear evidence that the mate bond had been broken by force. "Argh!" Kaden howled in devastation, the sound waves shattering the bedroom windows. It dawned on him that Seraphina was not joking. She had left him, never to be found again. Falling on all fours, Kaden struggled to crawl to the dressing table. There, a black obsidian jewelry box remained. It was the gift Seraphina left for him a week ago.

My eyes stung with tears as I nodded. "Okay. I'll wait for you, no matter how long it takes." And just like he promised, his business took off. Then, one night, he tossed a velvet box at me like it was nothing. Inside lay nothing but a cheap, shoddily made ring grabbed from a convenience store clearance shelf. He didn't bother to kneel. He just propped himself against the doorframe and flashed that lazy smile. "Wear this for now. I'll get you a better one later."

Chelsea scoffed and slammed her high heel down on my hand. The sound of bones breaking echoed in the air. While I howled in agony, she just said contemptuously, "You honestly think you've got what it takes to be the wife of the richest man in the world? A pathetic pauper like you only deserves to be trampled under my feet." The pain of my finger bones breaking made my whole body tremble. I glared at her with nothing but hatred. "I have Jeremiah's number in my phone. Call him, and you'll know if it's true!"

"She's the one who's been giving you trouble, isn't she? I'll deal with her first before I handle anything else." My hair and clothes were a mess from all the struggling. Gianna's metal rings had left several bloody cuts across my face, and by now, blood had smeared across half of it. Levi focused for a moment to scrutinize me but didn't recognize who I was. He looked down at me and said, "I can choose not to hold you responsible for destroying the contract. But you broke the token of love I gave Gianna, so you have to pay her the full three million dollars."

Declan, the Alpha heir of the Nighthowl Pack and my arranged mate, proposed to me right after donating his Alpha marrow to his childhood sweetheart. In my past life, I said yes out of love and for the sake of our pack alliance. But after we mated, the weight of two territories fell entirely on my shoulders. Losing that marrow broke Declan’s inner wolf. He couldn’t fight. He couldn’t shift. He couldn’t even give me a strong heir. I had to run the crystal mines while fighting off rogues for him. Before I even turned forty, I dropped dead. Utterly drained. Worked to death. And Declan? He comfortably took all the territory resources I had bled for and marked his little sweetheart. They lived hap

"When you lost your head, you still knew how to move my parents to economy. You knew how to dump your luggage on me. You knew how to buy a bracelet with my card. You knew how to stand in a chapel I paid for and wait for me to show up." I pushed the roses back. "Your confusion always knows which way benefits you." Ethan went pale. "Can we really not start over?" I placed the pen on top of the dissolution statement. "Signing is the only dignified start you have left." This time, he signed. His hand shook as the pen scraped across the paper. News of the broken engagement spread quickly. My lawyer started debt recovery too. The six-hundred-thousand-dollar loan promise and recoverable payments we
