All Chapters of Sacrificed My Kidney for a Cheat: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

The drive back home was quite tiring and took a very long time. Today I had been at the office attempting to avoid thinking about the scandal that had occurred earlier in the day.From what I discovered, no matter where I looked, my colleagues’ eyes were fixed on me; mutters could be heard, and glances of disapproval were thrown at me.”Varya Luther, Wife of Kylo Cassian, Spotted with Ex-Fiancee Theo Anderson!”The headline went round my head again and I clenched the wheel, tighter.The day was unexpectedly nice, so I wanted to go home urgently and rest, but as soon as I arrived there, I felt queasy. I braced myself before unlocking the door and entering, wondering about the things that might await me inside. I opened the front door and entered the living room and saw Dora and Cassandra leaning against the wall, their arms crossed over their chest and totally looking down at me.“Well, the scandal queen is back,” Dora said sarcastically."Did you enjoy your little rendezvous with Th

The invitation to the family business event organized by Grandpa Cassian had arrived in a thick, cream-colored envelope, carrying an air of importance that was hard to ignore. With folks like Dora and Cassandra around, I knew this would be a night to tread cautiously. The excitement for the evening had been growing, and even though I was nervous, there was a tiny bit of thrill in me.I felt a rare sensation of confidence as I stood in front of the mirror, smoothing the fabric of the gorgeous dress Kylo had surprisingly chosen for me. The dress had beautiful embroidery that caught the light in an intriguing way, and it was a deep emerald green color. It fit me like a glove and flared out at the hips, making me look nearly royal. I smiled at the reflection, pleased with how it transformed me.Jasmin, my ever-loyal friend, stood by my side, admiring my outfit. "You look stunning, Varya. You’re going to knock them dead tonight," she said, her eyes gleaming with excitement."Thanks, Jas."

KYLO’S POVThe symphony of light and sound was the great hall. The room was filled with the sound of discussion mingling with the clinking of drinks, the chandeliers sparkling, and the laughing of longtime friends resonating. I made my way through the crowd, striking up conversations and establishing rapport with a practiced ease. Grandpa was right as usual; he had insisted on this gathering to strengthen our business ties. Everyone appeared to be having fun, and the energy was overwhelming.However, tonight was different in some way. I experienced an unexplained feeling of thrill and eagerness that I couldn't quite pinpoint. I glanced at my watch more often than normal as I stood close to the entrance, greeting guests and monitoring the activities.Then she walked in.Varya entered the hall with Jasmin at her side, and the effect was immediate. The noise level in the room appeared to drop as everyone turned to stare at her. She moved with such grace that it took my breath away. She w

I woke up the next morning with a knot of anxiety in my stomach. My thoughts kept going back to the award presentation like it was a bad dream. I was hollowed out by Tia's smug countenance, the murmur of the throng, and the uncertainty she had sowed. The team will be confirming Tia's statements today. I hated the process, but I had to go through it.Jasmin scooped me up, a determined expression on her face. “We’ll get through this, Varya. Don’t let Tia’s lies shake you.”I nodded, trying to muster the strength to believe her. “I know, but what if—”“No what-ifs,” she interrupted firmly. “You’ve worked too hard to let someone like Tia destroy your reputation.”There was tension in the air as we got to the workplace. Previously kind and encouraging co-workers now cast me indifferent looks. Even though I could hear the muttering as I passed, I refused to display any weakness by keeping my head up.The crew had convened in the conference room to deliberate on the verification procedure, s

KYLO’S POVOn that day of the event, Dora was mostly full of smiles and touches by holding onto my arm as we entered the venue. The epitome of the loyal spouse but I was distracted.My thoughts kept drifting to Varya and the look on her face when she knew Dora and I were going out together. There was something in her eyes I couldn't quite place—hurt, maybe? Or was it jealousy?I dismissed the thought and tried to concentrate on what lay ahead of me that evening. As darkness deepened into itself, my body moved automatically from one emotionless effort to another; some nods were given and polite smiles offered yet the recollection of Varya persisted in haunting my mental meanderings.When we finally got home, I was relieved. The event had been long, and Dora's constant presence was starting to grate on my nerves. As we stepped out of the car, I noticed another vehicle pulling up…Varya.But she wasn’t alone. There was a strange guy who was assisting her out of the vehicle, his hand holdi
