Chapter 1637

Summer's sharp gaze bore into Jamie like daggers. Without warning, she reached out, intent on yanking the wedding dress right off Jamie.

But Jamie wasn't someone to be pushed around. She grabbed Summer's hand and gave a firm shove, sending Summer stumbling backward. Losing her balance, Summer almost hit the floor. "Jamie, how dare you lay a hand on me?" she snarled.

In Summer's mind, Jamie had always been meek and submissive in front of Ben. Now, emboldened by his favor, she had the audacity to fight back. Not only had Jamie "stolen" Ben, but she had also won over his mother, who no longer favored Summer. The indignity of it all burned like acid in her veins. Consumed by rage, Summer lunged at Jamie again, but Jamie easily sidestepped her. This time, Summer went down hard, sprawled on the floor.

Summer, the pampered daughter of the Larson family, had never been humiliated like this. Her high status once earned her the admiration of Mrs. Lucas. But now, thanks to Jamie, her life was unraveling. And to top it off, Jamie and Ben had a son together, something she could never forgive.

Her fury boiled over. Scrambling to her feet, she screamed, "Jamie, I'll kill you!"

Unfazed, Jamie stood her ground. Before the situation escalated further, Ben appeared, carrying a tray of bubble tea.

In two swift strides, Ben was between them. He caught Summer's arm mid-swing, his grip ironclad. With a sharp flick of his wrist, he tossed her aside like a rag doll.
