Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother

Chapter 165: Jealousy

"Well, at least you’re aware of your situation," Clara sneered coldly. "I’ll lend you some money—enough to leave this place. Go back to wherever you came from."

Lily trembled. "N-No! I can’t go back there... I-I’ve gotten used to this life. I can’t survive in a village again." Desperately, she turned to Briena. "I was only helping with the plan to get revenge on Natalie. If it weren’t for that, none of this would have happened. Please, Briena—you have to help me rebuild my life."

Briena gazed at her with a mask of helpless innocence, carefully concealing her true feelings. She only felt disgust towards Lily. Before she could respond, Clara interjected.

"You are not allowed to be around Briena anymore," Clara said flatly. "I’ll give you a million. Use it to start over somewhere far away. If you don’t, I’ll have no choice but to be cruel."

Lily’s face twisted in disbelief. "After everything... after using me, you’re just going to throw me aside?" she cried bitterly.

Briena kept her expression neutral. "My grandmother has ordered me to sever ties with you. I’m sorry, Lily—we can’t be friends anymore."

Lily’s heart broke, tears welling in her eyes. "You can’t do this to me..."

Before she could say more, Clara’s phone buzzed. She glanced at the screen, and her expression darkened.

"That whore!" Clara spat venomously. "After everything she’s done to us, now she’s off having a romantic fling with that gigolo!"

"Let me see." Briena leaned in, studying the screen. It was a photo of Natalie, her side profile visible, walking hand-in-hand with a man whose back was to the camera, a hat obscuring his face.

"It’s him," Briena murmured, recognising him immediately. "That gigolo... her husband."

Since the day Briena saw Justin, she could never shake off his handsome face, his perfect appearance from her mind. Just one glance, and she could tell that was him.
