I Was His Substitute Bride Chapter 34
It might sound ridiculous.
But it was only in this moment that he suddenly realized the origin of his indulgence of Sabrina. It seemed to have started that one time he’d patted Sabrina’s head. And noticed my brow crease slightly.
To see the always-rational me show a rare flash of jealousy, he’d escalated.
Gradually, spoiling Sabrina became a habit.
No one knew. Before returning to the country, he’d lain awake for an entire month.
Dreaming of it. What expression would I wear when I saw Sabrina and him engaged?

He forced his heavy legs to move. Walked toward me.
Just then, Sabrina called. Voice full of grievance. “Cole, you disappeared in the middle of everything. My parents are blaming me for not keeping an eye on my own fiancé. The guests are laughing at us.”
In the past, if she’d acted spoiled like this, Cole would already be groveling to soothe her.
But this time, Cole’s brow furrowed deeply. “Spencer is injured. And you’re worried about this?”
Sabrina said, dismissive, “It has nothing to do with us. He got hurt for Victoria. It’s not like he’s going to come after us.”
Cole’s mouth curved up. A soundless laugh.
His eyes were full of sarcasm.

He spoke, his voice frigid. “Sabrina, we’re breaking up.”
