Reborn In a Murderer’s Embrace

Chapter 266

My eyes welled with tears, nervous yet cautious as I spoke up. “Is it… do you not like it anymore? Has it changed?”

Dexter opened his mouth but ultimately forced down a swallow. “Give it here.”

I handed him the mango pudding with a heart full of joy.

He gave it a cold glance, snorted, and walked away.

The nanny whispered, “Miss, the young master is allergic to mangoes.”

I was stunned. “Impossible, his favorite has always been mango tapiocas…”

The nanny hesitated, then said, “Miss, the young master said he wants you to go to school alone. He said you’re not a Fitzgerald. No need for special treatment. The chauffeur… he’s been called to drive Ms. Melody Burton.”

I stood there, motionless, my eyes reddening with loss.

He once said he loved me. Why did those young feelings change upon meeting his, so–called true love?

With my backpack slung over my shoulder, I stepped out of the house alone.

“Did you tell her?” Not far from the door, I overheard Dexter speaking with the nanny.
