The Dark Side Of Fate Chapter 215

I sat down and looked at her sternly. I wanted to see the bitch try to antagonise me.

I was a lady of the north. There was no debating it. It was best she watched herself where I was concerned.

Dinner was fun. We ate, and those that could drink drank while Linda and I were subject to Juice. Stephanie also made sure Avery drank Juice. She said she should not expose her body to harmful chemicals since they are trying to have a baby.

It wasn't long before Glenda crossed the line. She was drunk, but it was no excuse.

"You are one heartless bastard!" she said, looking at Sylvester, and the table was silent.

"How can you sit here and pretend everything is okay? My cousin is at home in pain, and here you are, enjoying your sleep. I knew the Volkovs were heartless, but.." She said, and Dominic interrupted her.

"Watch it, Glenda. He might be my brother, but he is lord; I can't help you if you overstep," he warned her, and she laughed.

"You think I care?" She said and then looked at Sylvester.

"Throw me into prison, do what you like, but I will speak the truth.

"She waited for you, Sylvester. She kept herself for you, hoping you would get back together one day. She loved you," She said in tears.

"No one asked her to, Glenda. She left me." Sylvester said calmly, humouring her, and Glenda started laughing.

"You believe that?" Glenda said and looked at me.

"You would pick someone's wife, a bloody leftover, over your first love," She said, and Dominic almost slapped her, but Stephanie stopped him.

"Don't hit her because of your brother." She said to him, and I could understand why. It would have been a huge mistake on his part. But his misty eyes said it all; he was only trying to shut her up, so Sylvester won't do anything to her.

"She was forced to leave; Your father did not think.." She said, and Stephanie tried to shut her up.

"No! he needs to know the truth, so he can understand what he threw away," she said in tears.

"Your father felt she wasn't Lady material because we were middle-class merchants, so he threatened my father to make sure she walked away. That was why Uncle Nikolay took her with him to the south, far away from your father's reach. He took her to the only place the Wolf Lord dared not go to. Where he had no power, and they remained there.

She was forced to leave you. That letter was written under duress. I was there. So do not feel smug and proud that you left her writhing in pain on the floor in the presence of everyone. You humiliated a woman that loved you deeply," She said, and Sylvester started laughing.

"Your cousin should accept the rejection and move on. I am not interested. My father has been dead for five years; she could have returned in those years. I do not want her anymore, Glenda. The feeling isn't there anymore. I cannot force it to return because my father scared her off," Sylvester said to her gently.

"The feelings are there. She is your fated, yet you rejected her because of that woman. That piece of.." She said, and Avery slapped her.

Glenda was in shock.

"I believe you can make your point without insulting my friend. My friend might be patient and slow to anger, but I am not. You can plead your cousin's case, but don't you dare insult my friend, or I will beat you up. Trust me, I have a lot of rage bottled up for it," she said, and she meant it. Glenda was in shock. She did not see it coming, but Avery meant it.

"I won't punish you, Glenda, for disrespecting my mate and me. I won't punish you because of Dominic, but if you dare try this again, I will not hesitate to have you dealt with it. This is also the last time you will eat with us. I do not want to hear of Susan or anything that has to do with her again. Tell her to accept the rejection if you care for her so much. Nothing can ever happen between us. I have moved on and found true love; she should do the same, too," Sylvester said, and Glenda was in shock.

Avery had hit her hard because there was blood in her mouth. A tiny bit sipped out. She used a napkin to wipe it and looked at Dominic to do something, but it was awkward for the man. Marcel was above him. He dared not insult Avery.

His eyes pleaded with her to be calm, and honestly, I believed he was better off without her, I could see why he got involved with the women in the harem. The girl was toxic.
