The Phantom Heiress Rising From The Shadows

Once His Wife, Now His Rival 233

Chapter 233 You're

Nothing But A Worthless...

Jayceon's anger erupted further, and he confronted Ethan. "Really? Brenna is new in your life. We have a whole childhood together. Why are you taking her side?"

Ethan's expression chilled. “She's going to be my wife. I won't let anyone bully her-not even my family, and certainly not a friend."

Brenna let out a loud laugh, her eyes shining with triumph as she looked at Jayceon.

Overwhelmed by his emotions but needing to appeal to Brenna, Jayceon softened his voice. "Miss Harper, please, I just need you to do one thing-stay out of my business with Ellie."

"You want me to stay out of it?" Brenna's laughter was tinged with scorn. "Do you even understand what Ellie has been through because of you? You're nothing but a worthless playboy who has completely lost the right to be forgiven by her. You say you love her, yet you've never stopped messing with other women. Ask yourself, do you truly love her?"

After a pause, she continued, "She pushed her family away for you. She was alone in Norview, giving birth to your child while you weren't there. You were probably spending time with other women at that time. She has been a single mother, juggling jobs, leaving her baby alone to cry while she worked. And you? Likely indulging in another romantic conquest. You don't love her; you only love yourself."

Brenna's gaze was sharp. "You've created every crisis she has had to endure. Now, just as she has found some peace, you show up to ruin it once more? What right do you have to be in her life again? She said to me that it was only Patrick's requests for his father that made her come back to the country. If it hadn't been for his pleas, she would have cut you off entirely."

Jayceon flinched, his guilt clearly showing. "I know it's my fault. But I can change. Don't I deserve the chance to fix things?"

Brenna let out a cold chuckle. "You want a chance? She already gave you one before, but you came here with another woman. You've lost any right to another chance."

Brenna's words left Jayceon speechless against the unyielding truth.

With a disdainful glance thrown at Jayceon, Brenna redirected her focus to grilling skewers alongside Ethan.
