Bride Betrayed and Humiliated, Leaves Fiancé to Lose Everything

Elliana nestled into Hector’s arms, pretending to comfort me.

“Veena, I don’t blame you. At that time, when Hector suddenly sent my ex-husband home, I thought it was some shameless woman who had lured him.”

“Although I know my ex-husband is a womanizer, without someone taking the initiative, he would not have dared attach himself to others.”

I did not want to respond to her insinuations and looked at Hector coldly.

“The money has been returned to you; we are even now. Why won’t you let me leave?”

Hector frowned deeply and replied, “What do you mean, even? You have not apologized to Elliana. How can the future lady of the Rivas family be so petty and unwilling to admit her mistakes?”

“If you had not worn such a short skirt that day, it would not have stirred this man’s dirty thoughts and ruined Elliana’s marriage.”

I stared at the man before me in shock, as though I were meeting him for the first time.

Dalton suddenly kneeled to me.

“Just admit you tempted me. Do you really want my family to break apart before you feel satisfied?”

Fear made my whole body shake.

Hector seemed unable to tolerate it and ordered someone to pull Dalton away.

The room grew quiet for a while, but then Elliana handed me a glass of wine and said, “Veena, if you drink this, we will pretend nothing happened and live peacefully like sisters, okay?”

Her actions seemed gentle but carried hidden strength. I only pushed her slightly, yet the wine ended up spilling across her body.

Very pitiful.

Hector carefully wiped away the wine from Elliana and rebuked me with a dark expression.

“Veena, must you push things to this point?”

A chill spread through my body, and I clearly saw the in pride in Elliana’s eyes.

She had planned this on purpose, bringing her ex-husband here to act out the scene.

She twisted the pain I once suffered and made it seem like my wrongdoing.

Elliana slowly rubbed the diamond ring worth hundreds of billions on her finger.

I bit down on my lower lip, my heart aching as if something was biting into it.

On every anniversary of our relationship, Hector would let me look at that ring once.

He would kiss me deeply and briefly place the ring on my finger.

“When we get married, this ring will be yours.”

The taste of blood filled my mouth as I pulled off the rope ring he had casually braided for me and worn on my finger.

“Have you said enough? Hector, we have broken up. You have no right to order me.”

Hector looked at the rope ring, the corner of his lips lifting slightly, his eyes dark.

“Elliana is right. You only care about wealth. You came close to me because of my money.”

“I allowed her to use the ring; it was only the last check for you. If you showed no concern, it meant you truly loved me. Tomorrow, I will bring you to file our marriage and place your name in the Rivas family record.”

“But you made the wrong choice.”

I felt no remorse at all; I only thought my seven years had been too painful.

Hector gave me plastic earrings, yet went to a sale to get emerald earrings for Elliana.

He handed me a bag that was already old from ten years ago, yet he bought Elliana the newest custom handbag.

In his view, I was only fit for low-quality items.

If I liked luxury, what was it that I wanted?

Elliana lifted her lips, then her voice broke as she removed the ring, ready to pass it to me.

“Sorry, Veena, I was the one who caused your confusion. I will give it back to you now.”

From a side Hector could not notice, Elliana pressed the ring base, and the pointed tips dug hard into my hand.

I pulled back in pain, and Elliana released it with the motion.

The diamond ring dropped to the floor; the stone flew off somewhere, and the band bent out of shape.

Elliana covered her lips.

“Veena, even if you feel upset, you should not throw the ring.”

“This is the rare pink diamond the Rivas family bought, meant to pass to the next lady of the house.”

My hand had a deep, long cut.

I answered with anger.

“It was clearly you…”

“Veena, do you still think you can speak to me about ending things now?”

Hector grabbed my jaw hard, anger burning in his eyes.

“This ring costs a hundred billion. Can you pay for it?”

Before I could respond, he motioned to the guards to push me down, hold me in the bathroom, force me to kneel on the floor, and throw several buckets of cold water over me.

The cold winter water chilled me until my whole body shook, and my knees hurt deep to the bone.

He pulled out his phone and called the hospital in front of me, planning to stop my grandfather’s oxygen.

“Since you show no thanks, then use your family to pay for it, so you can wake up!”
