Remorse After Breaking Up



The Bailey family was a formidable presence ranked second among the ten great families. As the Bailey family's cherished daughter, Esme's words carried significant weight.

Most people would have been intimidated, but Gabriel merely sneered. "Ms. Bailey, I advise you not to meddle. While your family is powerful, I am not afraid of you. I have Lord Wavebreaker backing me."

Gabriel stood tall with pride. As a Patrol Commander under Lord Wavebreaker, he held significant authority and had access to the Wave City Defenders. His connection to Lord Wavebreaker commanded respect, even from the great families.

Esme's expression shifted slightly at the mention of Lord Wavebreaker, but she remained undaunted. The Bailey family had a grandmaster among them, a status on par with the God of War.

"I'm not meddling. He's my fiancé," Esme suddenly announced loudly.

"How's that possible?" The crowd erupted in shock.

"Sebastian's recent divorce from Lillian and sudden engagement to Esme is baffling!"

"First, he was with Lillian, now Esme, and they're both stunning beauties. What does Sebastian have that attracts them?"Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

"He's just a cast-off from the Smith family. How does he qualify to be Ms. Bailey's fiancé?"

The shock was palpable, especially among the men, who were mostly envious.

Harrison's fists tightened with rage as he glared at Sebastian.

"He's your fiancé?" Gabriel asked incredulously. "Ms. Bailey, are you joking?"

Esme firmly held onto Sebastian's arm. "Do I seem like I'm joking?"

Gabriel shook his head. "I still can't believe it. You're the finest lady in Dragotha, the heiress of the Bailey family, with both prestige and beauty. You could have anyone. And he's just a cast-off from the Smith family. How does he measure up to you?"

Esme responded coldly, "He's mine. I know who he is. It's not your place to judge."

Gabriel was left speechless.

"When did this happen? Why wasn't I informed?" Harrison demanded, looking at Esme with indignation.

He had harbored feelings for Esme for quite some time, but with Travis in the picture, he never had the courage to make a move. He felt relieved when Travis was removed from the equation recently. With no more hindrances, he started relentlessly pursuing Esme.

However, Esme remained indifferent to him, but he didn't lose heart. With Travis out of the picture, there was no one else qualified to compete with him. He believed that winning Esme over was just a matter of time.

He found it difficult to accept Esme's sudden revelation that she had a fiancé.

"It's my private matter. How does it concern you?" Esme's displeasure was evident on her face, but when she looked at Sebastian, her cheeks flushed crimson, and her heart raced.

Harrison was furious. He stared coldly at Sebastian and said, "Sebastian, consider this your final warning. Esme is the woman I have set my sights on. If you dare to compete with me for her, it will be your demise!"
