The Scorned Heiress: No More Mercy novel Chapter 415

"Mr. Calhoun, what a coincidence seeing you here," Jade purrs, desperately trying to salvage her shattered dignity. Seeing the impossibly wealthy and powerful billionaire instantly revitalizes her. She pitches her voice into a sickly sweet, breathy register that makes everyone in the room cringe. "Tara is here ordering escorts, and I hope you can keep this a secret. My parents and brothers will have a serious talk with her."

She frames her betrayal as genuine sibling concern, hoping to look like the responsible, caring sister. Unfortunately for her, no one in the room is buying the act. Tricia rolls her eyes so hard they nearly get stuck, and even Evan feels a wave of pure disgust. Jade is incredibly fake. No wonder her acting career went nowhere, and no wonder Jake's massive financial backing failed to make her a star. She is entirely brainless.

Evan suddenly feels a twisted sense of brotherhood with Jake. How did they both end up chained to this nightmare of a woman? Was he blind, or just stupid to ever think she was an innocent angel? The realization that he is likely tied to her for the rest of his life feels like a knife twisting in his gut.

Danny stares down at Jade with absolute contempt, instantly recognizing her as the exact type of two-faced schemer who would send an anonymous video. "Get out of my way and stop polluting my eyes."

Jade's face flushes a dark, mottled purple. Her cheeks are already swollen from Tara's slaps, and now she is being ruthlessly mocked by the most elite man in the city. Her fragile ego shatters completely. Unable to endure another second of the humiliation, she covers her face and sprints out of the room, sobbing hysterically.

Nobody chases after her.

In the past, the Dennis brothers would have scrambled over each other to comfort her. But times have changed. Evan, her actual fiancé, doesn't even flinch. Why should anyone else care?
