Betrayed and Dumped She Rose Stronger Than Ever novel Chapter 374

When Bruce heard that, he look shocked. His expression darkened, and he blurted out, “No way. Sonja would never do something like that.”

Rebecca’s lips curled into a cold smile. “Really? I hope I’m wrong about her. But first, I need to see her.”

Bruce hesitated, just as Morris rushed over, out of breath.

“Bruce, don’t let her in to see Sonja. Today’s your engagement. She’s only here to stir up trouble and ruin everything. She’s obviously not over you and wants to mess with Sonja. You can’t let her get what she wants.”

Rebecca glanced at the man standing by the stairs and said, almost bored, “With that wild imagination, Morris, you missed your calling as a tabloid reporter.”

Morris was left speechless, his face burning with embarrassment and fury. He could feel the veins throbbing on his forehead. He stomped forward, ready to give Rebecca a piece of his mind.

But before he could get close, Paul stepped in front of Rebecca, shielding her with his body. His voice was low, dangerous. “Don’t you dare touch her.”

Morris snapped, “Paul, do you even hear yourself? You’re totally wrapped around her fingers!”

The shouting at the entrance was so loud that everyone inside could hear it. The two young makeup artists kept working but exchanged glances. One of them whispered, “There’s a commotion at the door. Do you want to go check?”

Sonja traced her red lips in the mirror, looking amused. “Sure. As soon as you finish my eyebrows.”

By the time Sonja swept out in her long gown, tension at the doorway was at its breaking point.

The sharpness in his words made Sonja’s smile falter for a split second. But she quickly recovered. Today was supposed to be her perfect day. Why did she go through all this effort to get Rebecca and her mom here? She wanted to prove that, even if she couldn’t beat Rebecca at work, she was the clear winner in love.

She had taken Rebecca’s fiancé, the man she’d dated for seven years. She was the one who came out on top.

Thinking this, Sonja raised her chin and smiled with quiet satisfaction. “Rebecca and I are family. Isn’t it only right for Samantha to be at my engagement party? I’m sure she’s happy to be here, sharing our happiness.”

She glanced at Rebecca, her tone gentle and almost sisterly. “Don’t worry. I’ll take you to her right now. You can see for yourself if she’s a guest or… something else.”

With that, Sonja led the way upstairs, and everyone followed her toward the guest rooms on the third floor.
