Five Years of Marriage to Mr. Bradford (by Koi Fish) novel Chapter 635

Chapter 635

Vance had recorded a video suhis phone while shielding her. When Casper lunged, Vance beat him up.

Rebecca had been terrified, but she had also recorded audio.

During dinner, her parents had discussed the engagement. She had been furious, but she was too young and inexperienced to lash out in front of her father. /

Instead, she had secretly recorded their conversation on her phone, capturing everything, including Casper’s attempts to take advantage of her.

The phone had been safely tucked away in her pocket and later had played a crucial role in resolving the situation.

After Vance drove Casper away, she couldn’t bring herself to tell him that her parents had arranged the whole thing. Her family was far more disgusting than his.

So, he had never known how awful they truly were. Even after marriage, he had treated them with courtesy.

She had told him many times about their greed, but he had just thought he owed her and decided to compensate for everything. As a result, they had often bypassed her and gone straight to him to get what they wanted.

That day, Darren had witnessed the entire ugly scene.

They weren’t even that close. She didn’t know how to face the shame of having her darkest family secret exposed to a classmate she barely knew.

“I do,” he replied without hesitation. After a pause, he added, “From now on, let me be your blade.”

Her heart skipped a beat, and she looked at him again.

In the dim night, the evening breeze tousled the short hair on his forehead, shadowing his eyes. She couldn’t read his expression clearly, but his voice was steady and resolute. “You’ve carried too much by yourself. Let me handle the heavy parts from now on.”

Even after experiencing it once before, she was touched by those words. She had stood alone, shouldering everything.

Other people’s youth was full of color and sunshine, while hers was marked by undercurrents of fear and anxiety.

In the warm evening breeze of that summer night, he gently wiped the bitter tears from the corners of her eyes. The gesture felt so natural, as if he had done it for her many times before.
