Betrayed and Dumped: She Rose Stronger Than Ever novel Chapter 194

A rush of anger hit her out of nowhere. Rebecca’s brows tightened. “Bruce, what exactly do you want?”

Bruce’s eyes were cold and unreadable as he looked at her. “Do you know Caleb? Dr. Palmer’s favorite student?”

“So what if I do?”

“I saw you two talking the other day. You seemed pretty close. Are you two...”

Rebecca yanked her hand free from his grip. “We’re just friends.”

“As long as you’re just friends,” Bruce said, suddenly serious.

Rebecca let out a bitter laugh. “You’re about to get engaged to Sonja. Why do you care who I spend time with? Mind your own business.”

“Who said I was getting engaged?” Bruce frowned. “I never said that.”

She couldn’t even be bothered to argue. Whether he got engaged or not, it had nothing to do with her. All she wanted was for him to stay out of her life.

Rebecca walked away, not looking back. Bruce started after her, but Sonja’s voice called him to a halt.

“Bruce, what are you doing here? I’ve been looking everywhere for you.”

Bruce’s face was stone cold, his eyes so frosty that Sonja hesitated, not daring to speak for a moment. Eventually, she forced a smile and stepped closer, looping her arm through his. “What’s wrong?”

He stared at her for a few seconds, then pulled his arm away. “Did you tell people we were getting engaged?”

Sonja froze. She had only mentioned it to Rebecca. Did he just run into her?

“So, you met Rebecca just now? Did she tell you that?” Sonja’s gaze dropped, her smile turning bitter. “She’s always first in your heart, isn’t she. You just believe whatever she says.”
