He Waited She Wilted (Ottilie and Yorath) novel Chapter 133

The jade bracelet slipped from her fingers, hitting the ground with a sharp clack and shattering into pieces.

Ottilie hastily crouched down, gathered the broken shards, and looked up at Marcella with deep remorse.

"I'm so sorry, it slipped. I had no idea jade was this fragile. Forgive me."

Without missing a beat, she turned to Yorath. "See? I told you gold is always better. Easy to cash in, and it never breaks."

"It's fine. It's just a bracelet," Yorath said, plucking the broken pieces from her palm and casually tossing them aside.

"Mom, let me walk you to the car." He opened the door to the family car for her.

Marcella got in, looking at her son as if she wanted to say something but held back.

Yorath didn't say another word to her. He shut the door and instructed Tobin.

"Drive safe. Send me a message when you arrive."

"Yes, sir."

Ottilie watched Yorath walk toward her and called out with a smile, "Yorath."

He didn't answer. He got into the car, his expression ice-cold.

Ottilie said, "I really didn't mean to. Was it very expensive? I'll pay for it."

Yorath turned to look at her.

Ottilie kept her smile pinned in place, meeting his gaze.

The car started moving. Shadows from the trees flickered through the windows, casting Yorath in shifting light and darkness, exuding a dangerous aura.

"Ottilie, tonight."

Ottilie understood but didn't respond.

They drove back to the estate in silence.

Soren was already waiting in the grand foyer.

"Ms. Sewell, the contract is ready. Please take a look."

Ottilie reached out and took it. Without even glancing at the contents, she tore it in half and placed the pieces gently on the table.

"Yorath, I can sign with you for a lifetime, but I won't be your mistress, and I certainly won't have an illegitimate child with you."

With that, she walked straight to her room.

Ottilie was anxious, pacing restlessly across the floor.

At eleven o'clock, Yorath walked in.

He was holding a box of condoms.
