Remorse After Breaking Up

Sebastian furrowed his brows. Given Jenny’s usual disdain for him, her sudden appearance was a surprise.

Elijah quickly gathered everyone to greet Jenny, and they all made their way to the entrance, where a fleet of luxurious cars lined up outside their house.

Jenny, dressed in a casual tank top paired with miniskirt that showcased her fair skin and impressively long legs, led the entourage.

While she might not not have been as good–looking as Lillian, she was still considered a beauty by most standards. In fact, she was actually more charismatic than Lillian.

Since she was the only daughter in the Cadwell family, Jenny never traveled alone; she was always flanked by at least seven to eight bodyguards wherever she went.

With a welcoming grin, Elijah said, “Ms. Cadwell, we are honored by your visit. Forgive us for our poor hospitality.”

However, Jenny ignored Elijah and turned to Sebastian. “I’m here today to deliver two pieces of news. Would you prefer to hear the good news or the bad news first?”

After brief contemplation, Sebastian answered, “Start with the bad news.”

Jenny smirked and said, “The bad news is, I’ve come to break off our engagement.“.

“Engagement?”

The Smiths exchanged puzzled looks. Jenny and Sebastian were engaged?

A chill ran down Sebastian’s spine as he turned to find Lillian glaring at him.

Sebastian quickly tried to defuse the tension, saying, “It’s an arranged marriage set up by the elders. I only learned about it recently myself.”

Turning to Jenny, he continued, “I accept your decision. However, this isn’t bad news to me. In fact, it’s good news, considering I have a wife who is far more beautiful than you.” He pulled Lillian closer to him as he spoke.

Jenny flushed with frustration. She had thought that the proposal to break off the engagement would leave Sebastian terrified and eager to salvage the situation.

But much to her dismay, Sebastian had agreed immediately and even flaunted another woman to her. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

What truly annoyed Jenny was that she could find no grounds to argue; Lillian was indeed stunning. Though it pained her to admit, Lillian’s beauty indeed surpassed her own.

Jenny managed a dismissive sneer and said, “She’s just a country girl.”

Next, she pulled out a document and passed it to Sebastian. “Since you agreed to break off the engagement, you might as well sign these annulment papers now.”

Sebastian didn’t hesitate and reached for the pen. Before he could sign off, Jenny called out, “Hold on!”

Sebastian lifted his head and asked, “What’s the matter? Have you changed your mind?”

Jenny retorted haughtily, “Are you kidding? I’m the sole heiress of the Cadwell family, one of the top ten most powerful families in Dragotha. Given my prestigious status, only a man in the elite class would be worthy of being my husband. But you?”

Jenny’s smile morphed into a sneer. “You are just a useless son–in–law from an insignificant family. You’re utterly useless! I find it tiresome to just look at you.”

She hadn’t planned on being so harsh, but Sebastian’s indifferent attitude earlier compelled her to hit back hard.

Although Sebastian remained unfazed by her hurtful words, Lillian couldn’t contain her anger. “There’s no need for such harsh words, Ms. Cadwell. Sebastian isn’t as bad as what you described.”

“I’m just stating the truth. Only a mediocre woman like you would treasure him. He’s useless to me.” Jenny jeered.
