Chapter 2
This club was one of the Harrison family’s properties.
Vincent Montgomery assumed I’d forced Emily Carter to work here to humiliate her.
But the irony was almost laughable.
Emily was already treated like royalty—drenched in wealth from both Vincent and my brother, Daniel.
Why would she ever choose to do menial labor?
Still, I knew better than to argue.
Even if I spoke up, even if I brought the manager in as a witness, Vincent wouldn’t believe me.
In his eyes, I was the villain now—a spoiled heiress tormenting the innocent “white lotus” with my family’s influence.
“Lina Harrison.”
Vincent pulled Emily closer, shielding her from me.
“A privileged girl like you… I can’t deal with it.”
“Let’s call off the engagement.”
Silence swallowed the room.
Emily trembled, her face pale as she buried herself deeper into Vincent’s arms.
My so-called friends stared at me like I was some kind of threat.
I almost laughed.
Ever since Sophia Carter wormed her way into our family, and Emily squeezed herself between Vincent and me, I’d reacted… badly.
The love that once belonged solely to me had shifted, unconditionally, to Emily and her mother.
How could a pampered girl like me handle that?
But my outbursts only pushed everyone closer to Emily.
Now? I was just… tired.
“Fine.”
My voice was eerily calm as I took a slow step forward.
Vincent immediately stepped in to block Emily.
“Whatever you’re planning, Lina, aim it at me.”
I lowered my hand from my wound and turned my palm up.
Blood stained my skin, stark against my pale flesh.
Vincent’s lips pressed into a thin line.
For the first time, the ice in his eyes flickered.
