Fated To Three, And I Broke Them All novel Chapter 11

Chapter 11: 11-I Am Back For Revenge

Verity:

"My brother came home one night, upset and devastated, and told me that he had parted ways with Gigi."

I picked up a pen from the desk and rolled it between my fingers.

"He did not tell me why or how it happened. He just let me know they were over and that she had lost the baby."

I tightened my grip on the pen, then loosened it again.

After Jaguar treated my wounds last night, he told me to come to the office and explain my side of the story.

Once he left, I started putting together a plan for the meeting.

"He did not speak to me that whole night, and the next day, he left for work. Then I found out he had been so anxious that he picked a fight with some warriors, and they beat him up and humiliated him."

My fingers stilled for a moment before I looked down.

"Then, the next thing I knew, he ended his life."

I explained with teary eyes, trying to hold back my tears.

I was standing in front of the brothers, lying about mine with a heavy heart.

Gigi was there, obviously.

She was sitting right next to Ragnar in a way that made it clear she was in charge.

I spoke carefully, making sure they would not realize that I knew the exact details.

So, in my statement, I said that Gigi had lost the baby, my brother had broken it off with her, and he had been so anxious that he started picking fights.

I hated doing that to my brother, but it was important at that moment.

"However, I am not sure why all of you think I am here for revenge," I added, lifting my head.

When I said that, I saw Theodore and Jaguar look at each other before turning back to me.

They were seated in a line across the table.

Gigi sat on Ragnar’s right, Theodore beside her, while Jaguar was on Ragnar’s left.

I stood in front of them, giving my statement.

"Is there anything that I need to know? Why would you immediately think my arrival has anything to do with revenge? Is there any part of the story that I am unaware of?" I spoke harshly and with determination, refusing to sound timid.

I wanted to give them a preview that I was starting to doubt things, that maybe there was more to the story and that my brother had been wronged.

"No, never. It’s just that—-Gigi started first but didn’t finish her excuse.

I noticed how she lowered her eyes from Ragnar, probably because she did not want to come across as a bitch and a two-faced hypocrite in front of him.

"I just thought you would be angry that we broke up. But I’ve been through so much because of your brother that I thought you would come to torture me."

Her voice cracked as she said those words, and I watched the others’ faces contort, almost as if they believed her lies.

I forced an empathetic smile and nodded.

"No, I would never," I lied. "I was just too ashamed to meet you again, to face you again. To lose a child, and then my brother breaks up with you because of it—it wasn’t your fault."
