Too Late, Mr. Billionaire: You Can't Afford Me by Thedora Birnir

Chapter 250 I Hate It

Elissa and Robin met at the height of their youth, a time when love felt invincible.

They were a perfect match–admired, envied, the kind of couple others spoke of in hushed awe.

Their families, well–matched in wealth and influence, welcomed the union with open arms. Everything aligned

as if fate itself had blessed their love story.

Elissa had envisioned a simple, beautiful life with Robin–marriage, children, quiet happiness. She never

imagined a different ending.

But fate clearly had other plans. On the night of her wedding, the dream she cherished shattered in an instant.

She had spent the night in the arms of her lover–or so she believed.

But as dawn broke, the world around her crumbled. The door to the bridal chamber burst open with a deafening crash.

Elissa jolted awake, her mind still hazy, her body aching from the night before.

The room was a mess of disheveled sheets and discarded clothing. Her wedding dress lay in tatters on the floor,

the delicate fabric torn and ruined.

The marks on her skin, the lingering warmth on the bed, the unmistakable stain on the sheets–evidence of what had transpired.

The fairytale she had believed in had just become a nightmare.

Elissa would never forget the look on Robin’s face the sheer disgust, the fury twisting his features as he stared

at her.

“Elissa! How could you?” he roared, his voice cutting through the heavy silence like a blade.

The words struck Elissa harder than any physical blow.

Then, the horrifying realization set in. On her wedding night, in what should have been the most sacred moment of her life–she had been with a stranger.

Not Robin. A stranger.

Who was he? She didn’t even know his name. Before she had woken, he had already vanished.

And from that moment on, Elissa’s life unraveled. The whispers spread like wildfire. The accusations came swift and merciless–from her family, from Robin’s, from everyone who had once looked at her with admiration.

Shameless. Disgraceful. She was branded with those words.

Elissa had no defense. No explanation that would change what had already been decided.
