Chapter 9: The Wheel of Fortune Turns (2)_1
The wedding was imminent, the registration about to happen, yet her sister had run away at the last minute. Julia Bluen could easily imagine the Horne Family’s rage.
Just yesterday, she had suffered a heartbreaking breakup, cruelly abandoned by her boyfriend, and was emotionally devastated—Glades Horne had even consoled her. Little did she know, fortune’s wheel turns. Only a day later, it was Glades Horne who was brutally abandoned, betrayed by his own fiancée, her sister.
What a cruel joke fate had played!
The hand holding Glades Horne’s cell phone slowly dropped. His face darkened, a mask of fury, his eyes, sharp as swords, filled with rage, but more than that, with pain and confusion.
If Ruby Bluen didn’t want to get married, she could have just said so—he would never have forced her.
Yet she said nothing and chose to run away at this crucial time. Had she been playing him all along?
How could she do this?
The sting of betrayal was agonizing, especially from a girlfriend he had loved for many years. Only those who had experienced it could truly understand such pain.
Glades Horne turned his head to look at the Civil Affairs Office, and a cold smirk suddenly escaped his lips. How ironic!
