He Caught His Cruel Fiancée Humiliating His Long-Lost Sister and Ended Everything
Previously: When Thomas returned home early to find his snobbish fiancée forcing a young woman to scrub the floors, he made a phone call that changed all of their lives forever.
The Hidden Truth Revealed
The silence in the foyer was deafening, broken only by the soft sound of Chloe's quiet sobbing. Eleanor's face shifted from shock to indignant outrage. She threw her hands up, her expensive jewelry clinking loudly. "Are you insane, Thomas?" she shrieked. "You are calling off our entire wedding because of this street rat? She is just hired help! I was only teaching her a lesson about respect!"
Thomas walked past Eleanor as if she were invisible. He knelt down on the wet floor, completely ignoring the fact that the dirty water was ruining his bespoke charcoal suit. He gently took the scrub brush from Chloe's red, raw hands and helped her to her feet, wrapping his jacket around her shivering shoulders. When he turned back to Eleanor, his gaze was lethal.
"She is not the help, Eleanor," Thomas said, his voice deadly quiet. "This is Chloe. My sister. The sibling I have been searching for my entire life."
Eleanor's jaw dropped, her face turning pale. She had known Thomas was searching for his long-lost sister, but she had never imagined this quiet, poorly dressed girl was her. However, instead of apologizing, Eleanor’s panic quickly transformed into venomous desperation. She straightened her red silk dress and narrowed her eyes.
"You think you can just discard me?" Eleanor sneered, pulling out her phone. "If you cancel this wedding and throw me out, my father will pull all of his investments from your firm. Not only that, but I have copies of your private acquisition files. I will leak them to the press tonight, and your entire empire will crumble."
Chloe gasped, grabbing Thomas's arm. "Thomas, please, don't let her ruin you because of me," she begged. But Thomas stood his ground, a cold smile playing on his lips.
