Reborn To Reject My Regretful Mate For The King Chapter 05
Before the wedding was even over, Julian knocked Adrian flat in front of the remaining guests.
When Evelyn came running out of the banquet hall, clutching her wedding gown, both men already had bruised faces.
Every phone camera in the room was pointed at them.
“What happened?” Evelyn asked, her voice tight with anxiety.
Julian wiped a smear of blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes a frightening red.
“Adrian, how could you?”
“Evelyn is your sister, but what about Camille? Isn’t she?”
Adrian pushed himself off the floor, his tie hanging loose against his chest.
“I had no other choice.”
“No—you had plenty of choices!”
Julian seized him by the collar and slammed him against the wall.
“You knew that man would drag her into the rebellion. You knew you were sending her down a path that could get her killed!”
Adrian looked past Julian’s shoulder, toward the north-facing, floor-to-ceiling windows reflecting the night.
“Camille is smarter than Evelyn. She’s stronger. She might not die.”
“But if she doesn’t go, Evelyn definitely won’t survive.”
Julian stared at him as if he’d just heard the sickest joke in the world.
“So Camille was telling the truth.”
“And you call yourself her brother?”
He abruptly let Adrian go and strode toward the elevators.
Evelyn threw herself in his path, wrapping her arms around him.
“Where are you going? It’s our wedding day!”
“I’m going to find Camille. She’s been gone less than a day. I can still catch up.”
