Under the Veil I Rule (Amara) novel Chapter 780

Elysia murmured, “Dorian has promised me so many times that nothing ever happened between him and Jessica. He swore they never overstepped, never slept together—just that their relationship was a bit closer than that of typical siblings or friends.”

“But after seeing this picture, I realized—they really did sleep together. Otherwise, how would this photo even exist?”

“Dorian actually lied to me…”

She turned to look at Amara, her lips as pale as a ghost.

“Ama, can you imagine the kind of shock I felt the instant I saw that picture?”

“I’m almost embarrassed to admit it, but I felt like my entire world had collapsed.”

“Even though I’d already decided to divorce Dorian, I still hadn’t completely gotten over him. So when I saw that photo, it hurt—a lot. I was devastated, and honestly, I felt disgusted…”

“Now, just thinking about anything connected to Dorian makes me feel sick. Even this baby in my belly, his child, makes me feel so revolted. That’s why I didn’t even hesitate to have an abortion.”

She’d actually scheduled the procedure for a few days later, since she’d been busy and hadn’t found the time.

But now, Elysia couldn’t bother with anything else. All she wanted was to get rid of the baby as soon as possible. It was clear just how heartbroken and furious she was.

Amara said, “We really only know what people show us, not who they truly are. Sometimes it’s impossible to know the real character of those around you…”

She paused, then added, “Dorian and Finnian—two of a kind. No wonder they get along so well. People like them are best kept at a distance.”

Elysia sensed there was more to that statement. She asked, “Ama, did something happen with you? Is it about Finnian?”

Elysia glared at the photo of Finnian and Liliana, their embrace unmistakable and intimate, and cursed out, “Finnian is such a jerk. I actually started to think he was a good guy, but now... I can’t believe he’s still not done with Liliana!”

Elysia had always disliked Finnian, but after everything that had happened recently, she’d started to think he might truly care for Amara.

And after learning that Finnian had only been with Liliana because he thought she was his savior, she’d started to rethink her opinion of him.

She’d even considered not objecting if Amara and Finnian ever reconciled.

But now, all that was shattered.

Amara said, “Finnian’s been so kind to me these last few days. I kept telling myself I didn’t want to be with him, but really, I was just soaking in his attention. Looking back, I honestly feel ridiculous.”
