Remarriage Failed Again Today-Chapter 165: Annabelle Linton, I Forbid You to Ignore Me

Annabelle Linton’s face was completely impassive, without even a flicker of surprise. She ignored him, walking straight past him.

Watching her indifferent display, Leona Grant couldn’t stop his hands from clenching into tight fists.

He glared coldly at Annabelle Linton’s retreating back and sneered. "Oh, so you *do* know the way back?"

Annabelle Linton kept walking without a single reaction.

A dangerous glint flashed in Leona Grant’s eyes. He grabbed Annabelle Linton and growled in a low, restrained voice, "Annabelle Linton, I won’t let you ignore me! You’ve been gone for two days. Where were you?"

"Let go." Annabelle Linton looked at him coldly, her voice flat and devoid of any inflection. "I said, get your hand off me!"

Leona Grant’s grip only tightened. "I want an explanation!"

Annabelle Linton closed her eyes and took a deep breath. A hint of anger began to brew in her icy eyes.

But she didn’t lose her temper. Instead, the corners of her lips curled up slowly as she regarded him, her tone a perfect blend of casualness, cold elegance, and arrogance.

"Give me one reason I should have to explain myself to you."

Leona Grant felt a jolt in his chest, stunned by her brazen arrogance.

’He had expected her to cause a scene or start a fight when he angrily confronted her, but she showed none of the emotions he anticipated.’

Leona Grant’s dark, lifeless eyes scrutinized the woman before him.

’In truth, he had known since he was a little boy that Annabelle Linton was his fiancée, his future wife.’ 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

’But he hadn’t disliked her back then. She was so well-behaved and gentle, and he liked girls who were quiet and unassuming, not pretentious.’

’But gradually, he discovered it was all just a facade.’

’Annabelle Linton would pretend to be quiet in front of others, but she was actually someone who loved to cause trouble.’

’She would blame her own mistakes on Vivian Yates.’

’Whenever she needed something, she would use Vivian Yates, only to cast her aside when she was no longer useful.’

’Once, Annabelle Linton broke an antique school vase worth tens of millions. She had grabbed Vivian Yates’s hand in a panic, crying about what she was going to do.’

’But he had seen Vivian Yates hugging Annabelle Linton and gently comforting her, "Don’t be afraid. Just tell the principal I broke it. That way, you won’t be involved. I’ll take all the blame."’

’And Annabelle Linton had just shed a few crocodile tears and said nothing.’

’It was then that he realized how hypocritical Annabelle Linton was. Utterly disgusting.’

’The truth was, a vase worth tens of millions was nothing to him. If Annabelle Linton had just said a word to him, he would have helped her pay for it.’

’But Annabelle Linton hadn’t!’

’Because of that incident, Vivian Yates lost the chance to compete abroad and was forced to make a public apology in front of the entire school. And throughout it all, Annabelle Linton didn’t say a single word.’

’There were other times, too. He’d seen Vivian Yates jump in to protect Annabelle Linton whenever other girls bullied her.’

’But when Vivian was the one being bullied, Annabelle would always wait until the situation was resolved before showing up late, rushing over to offer her feigned comfort.’

’And so, bit by bit, his opinion of Annabelle Linton began to change. He started to hate her.’

’Later, Annabelle Linton started throwing her weight around at school, flaunting her status as his fiancée and constantly using the Grant Family’s name to clean up her own messes.’

’She would always act sweet and gentle in front of their grandfathers and play the role of a model student in front of the teachers.’

’But he was the only one who knew just how hypocritical and calculating Annabelle Linton truly was.’

’Would a good girl bring a group of people to push Vivian Yates into a river?’

’Would a good girl make a mistake and then let someone else take the blame?’

’Time and time again, Annabelle Linton’s true colors were exposed, and with each revelation, his loathing for her grew.’

’Eventually, he made a vow: he would never marry a person like that, let alone have anything to do with her!’
