Five Years of Marriage to Mr. Bradford (by Koi Fish) novel Chapter 58

That was because Rebecca had barely gone out and didn’t need many clothes for herself. She had mostly ordered for Vance.

She smiled bitterly, telling the consultant she wanted women’s evening wear. The consultant apologized and quickly sent over the women’s options.

She selected an apricot gown, a pair of flat shoes, and a clutch bag. She paid and had them delivered to her hotel before Vance’s call came in.

The sight of his name flashing on the screen stirred nothing but disgust. She rejected the call and blocked him.

An hour later, the gown arrived. She tried it on and felt it was suitable, then took a shower and went to bed.

She hadn’t brought her notebook, so before falling asleep, she recited silently to herself, “Countdown to leaving Vance Bradford, Day 22: I’ve blocked him, and now the world feels quieter.”

On Day 21, she woke up to find a new email in her inbox.

It was from the school, informing her that her certificate of enrollment had been processed. Now she could schedule her student visa appointment.

Since the tour visa hadn’t come through yet, she planned to book the appointment later in Soliaridge, giving her time to prepare the required documents.

The Schroeder family was hosting a banquet that day, and she figured they would be very busy, so she went to see the doctor on her own.

When Desmond called, she lied that she had already finished the session and returned to the hotel. She reassured him that she would see him at the banquet that evening and insisted he didn’t need to pick her up. She could make her own way there.

In the afternoon, she returned to the hotel and took a nap. When she woke up, it was time to prepare for the banquet.

She had no issue with makeup and hair, fortunately, she had brought some simple cosmetics. After she changed into the gown and did her makeup, Desmond called again, still intending to pick her up.

Unwilling to trouble him too much, she lied that she was already on her way and would call him when she arrived at the venue.
