From Discarded Wife to Queen (Tyrone) novel Chapter 306

Chapter 306 Lines That Can’t Be Crossed

After everyone left, only Tyrone and Aella remained in the quiet hallway upstairs.

Tyrone tried to explain himself. “Even if you hadn’t come up, I wouldn’t have hurt Clyde.”

Aella let out a dry laugh. “Tyrone, don’t pretend you’ve never hurt him.”

Remembering that day, Tyrone’s expression faltered.

He took a cautious step closer. “I didn’t mean it that time. Besides, Clyde hit me too. I just let him vent his anger.”

Tyrone looked into her eyes. “Aella, can we just forget about it?”

Aella stepped back, her voice steady.

“Forget it? The pain you caused me and my family–I’ll remember that for the rest of my life.”

She added, “If you want me to forget, you’ll have to wait until the day I die.”

Ignoring the hurt flickering in Tyrone’s eyes, Aella turned sharply to leave.

He instinctively reached out and grabbed her wrist.

Aella turned back. They stared at each other.

Tyrone asked quietly, “Everyone misunderstood you and Mason just now. Why didn’t you clear it up?”

Aella yanked her hand free. “Misunderstood what? We’re both single. There’s nothing to explain.”

Tyrone stood frozen, watching her walk away. His emotions churned until he slammed his fist into the wall.

Downstairs, the party was still buzzing with laughter and chatter.

Sayer and Clyde rushed over. “He didn’t give you a hard time, did he?”

Aella shook her head.

When Tyrone came down with Lysander, Aella lowered her eyes, pretending not to see them.

Tyrone couldn’t stop looking at her, though he kept his distance.

Lysander said, “We’ll be drawing lots later. Whoever gets picked dances the first dance with Aurelia.”

Brad chuckled. “I’m too old for that. Let the youngsters draw.”

Clyde lifted both hands. “Dance? I don’t even know how!”

Sayer crossed his arms proudly. “I’m not dancing with that little rascal.”

Everyone laughed.

Just then, a tall woman walked up, holding a wine glass with casual elegance. “What’s so funny over here?”

She wore light–toned tailored pants, flawless makeup, and a short bob tucked neatly behind her ears. Other than a watch and a thin necklace, she had no extra jewelry.

She looked sharp, confident, and effortlessly stylish.
