All Chapters of A Bride Switcheroo on the Big Day: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Quinn hadn't thought much of the situation at first, but Gabriel's series of questions made her face warm. She didn't need to look in the mirror to know she had to be blushing furiously. That only made her feel more embarrassed.Just then, Gabriel held out his wrist before her. "Does this seem familiar?"Quinn was taken aback when she saw the somewhat worn bracelet he wore. It was one that had been popular when they were children. At the time, he'd pestered her to get him one, so she'd bought one at random. She didn't expect him to keep it around to this day."Don't overthink this—I've kept it this whole time, but I only put it on when I returned to look for you. I thought it'd be nice if you were to remember how close we were as children," he said.She stared at him, not sure what to say in response. Just then, Stella called her. She answered the call with relief.Stella said, "I think Nicholas is determined to find you, Quinn. You should think of a way to deal with him pronto."

Gabriel's face and body were covered in mud and soil from the mountain. His sharp suit was dirty and torn, and his arms were covered in scratches from rocks and branches. He hadn't done anything to them, though.A trace of joy flashed in his eyes when he saw Quinn awake. He'd never cried even when Steven had chased after him to scold him, yet he burst into aggrieved tears then. "I'm never making you catch the sunrise with me anymore."She reached out to wipe away his tears and smiled gently. "Don't worry, I won't die. How did you get me down the mountain?"No ambulance could've gotten up the mountain because of its treacherous slopes. It looked like Gabriel had gone through a lot to get her to the foot of the mountain."I don't know. My mind went blank, and all I could think about was not wanting you to die." He couldn't stop his hands from trembling at the thought of the perilous situation. He would've spent the rest of his life in pain and regret if something really had happened

Quinn stepped forward to say something when she saw how frenzied Nicholas was, but Gabriel beat her to it. The crisp sound of a slap rang out, seeming even more pronounced by the quiet riverside.Nicholas gaped at Gabriel in disbelief while cupping his face. This was the first time someone had laid a hand on him in his life.Gabriel snorted disdainfully at the look on his face. "Quinn and I have known each other since birth—what do the few years you two had together mean compared to that?"Besides, isn't Jasmine Shaw your beloved? How can you be shameless enough to want Quinn back when you destroyed her for Jasmine's sake? What's your relationship with Quinn now?"Nicholas parted his lips at that but couldn't say a word. What was his relationship with Quinn? He was supposed to be her fiancé, but she no longer wanted him.He looked at Quinn tearfully at that thought and showed her his red cheek. "If hitting me will help appease you, I'm fine letting him slap me as many times as you

Nicholas' gaze no longer had the tenderness it had once held. To him, Jasmine was no more than a nemesis now.He knew she'd come bearing ill intentions when his assistant had called and told him she'd followed him. He didn't expect her to pull such a dirty trick—she'd secretly recorded them together!"I don't want to hurt you, Nicholas. I just don't understand why you're being so stubborn when things have already turned out like this. I promise I won't cause any more trouble for Quinn as long as you marry me."Besides, you and I were together before you met Quinn. How can you betray our bond for her sake?" Jasmine cried. Her eyes turned red, and she held Nicholas' shoulders tightly as she shook him.He scoffed and shoved her hands off. "You're the one who betrayed us first, Jasmine. Have you forgotten the money you took from my parents?""How do you know Quinn wasn't with you for your money, then?" Jasmine grew agitated. She looked at Nicholas pleadingly as tears glimmered in her

Jasmine suddenly started laughing as she clutched her cheek. "I would rather take such a roundabout way to get at Quinn than spread those videos of you, Nicholas. How can you treat me like this when I love you so deeply?"What is it about her that bewitches you so? Have you forgotten how you were the one to seek me out when I returned to Heathridge? You wanted me to join your company, and you told me you've never forgotten about me. I wouldn't be in this predicament if not for your sake, Nicholas!"She was about to lose her mind, but Nicholas didn't take pity on her because of that. On the contrary, his hatred for her grew."Don't think I don't know you orchestrated our so-called chance reunion. Also, wasn't I your whole reason for returning to Heathridge?" he spat.A hint of diffidence flashed in Jasmine's eyes at having her lies exposed.Nicholas continued, "I'll give you one last chance, Jasmine. Step up and explain everything—settle this matter, and I can let you off the hook
