Billionaire, Let's Divorce! by BELLA

Chapter 0017

"Sydney!" Dad's teeth were clenched as he glared. Mum's palm came on his shoulder.

"I ask, dad, what nonsense?" I continued, unstoppable. That your darling Mark got dumped by his lover and fiancée on the day they were to be made man and wife?"

I took a step forward. I cocked my head and frowned. "Or is it the nonsense that your little princess Bella is a slut who seduces her brother-in-law?" I enunciated the word 'slut' and made sure it stuck.. The look that crossed their faces would have worried me a little if we were alone because then, I was sure one of their palms would have connected with my cheeks but not here, there were far too many people - too many of their elite society- and they cared too much about their image to do anything.

The day I prepared to come back to my parents had been one of the happiest days of my life. Even though while growing up, I felt abandoned by them, I had still yearned to meet them someday. I had been disappointed. I had felt unwanted especially with Bella around.

Then the wedding bells rang and Bella didn't seem excited like I had expected. It wasn't very shocking when, on the day of the wedding, she fled. She had left a letter. I had been the one to find it and I read before taking the letter mum and dad. She wrote - Mum, dad, I've met my true love and I'm leaving with him. Don't bother to find me.
