My Drama King Husband (Yvaine and Silas) novel Chapter 4

"If it's over, it's over," Lucius said.

Zachary and Yvaine had started dating naturally in their youth and had been together for years. Since they were never officially engaged, there was no messy process of breaking a contract.-

Yvaine nodded. Then she went back to her room to wash up.

She had assumed that letting go of a decade-long relationship would leave her tossing and turning, but surprisingly, she drifted off almost immediately. She slept soundly until morning without a single dream.

Three days passed.

Within that time, news of her breakup with Zachary had spread rapidly through their social circles.

People kept fishing for information. Some just wanted to watch the drama unfold, some were genuinely nosy, and others had their own hidden agendas.

Yvaine gave everyone the exact same answer: Yes, we really broke up. She didn't offer any extra details.

Over these three days, the gossipmongers also eagerly filled her in on Zachary's activities. He had been hitting every major club in town with Xylia, dropping hundreds of thousands—sometimes millions—a night on alcohol and partying.

Yvaine stared at her father, momentarily speechless.

Yvaine forced a slight smile. "Dad... reverse psychology doesn't work when it's that obvious."

"Either way, you're going to this blind date tonight."

Yvaine nodded. "Okay."

Lucius blinked. "If you don't go... wait, what?"

He stared at her, stunned.

Yvaine smiled softly. "I said okay, Dad. I'll go on the blind date."

Lucius just looked at her. Well, then...
