Fated To Not Just One But Three novel Chapter 278

278 Where Were You Last Night

I opened my mouth to explain, but his furious eyes scanned me from head to toe.

I instinctively reached up, covering my neck.

“Calvin–what did the letter say?” I asked again, terrified, my heart racing.

Just then, a knock landed on the door.

But then I looked back at Calvin… and what I saw surprised me.

His words struck like a blow to the gut.

Olivia’s POV

-Lennox.

“Don’t,” he said sharply, blocking my hand. His tone was firm, protective. “Something harmful could be inside.”

I stood, my heart racing. “What did it say?”

My mind screamed yes. I knew it. I lived it. I survived it.

Tears filled my eyes. My knees felt weak.

“Those men–those animals–they’re the ones you can’t stay away from?” he roared. “Do you even know what they did to you?!” 3

I scoffed and shook my head. “It wasn’t. In fact, it was the best dream of my life,” I admitted with a blush.

Nestled beside it was a small folded note.

It was beautiful. The kind of jewelry I’d always admired in shop windows but never bought for myself. Simple, elegant, with a tiny sapphire set in the center.

“…You let them touch you?”

“I wanted to kill them the moment I read that report,” he muttered, pacing furio “And those are the men you’re letting near you again?”

There was no hate in his eyes.

I turned to Nora and Lolita. “Come with me. I want to introduce you to my brother

His expression changed.

This morning, I was dressed casually in jeans and a simple top. I wasn’t Luna anymore -no need for formal gowns.

“Are those… hickeys?”

“Breakfast is served, my lady,” a maid called from outside.

I couldn’t breathe.

“Do you know what else I learned?” he spat. “That they made your best friend their concubine just days after getting married to you. That on your wedding night-” he broke off, rage choking him.

They looked at each other nervously.

I staggered back at the weight of his anger.

I couldn’t speak.

I looked up, my lips parting. “Calvin… I’m sorry. I was going to tell you-”

I flinched, my breath catching in my throat. My hands trembled as I slowly stepped toward the shattered box. The locket had rolled across the floor, but my eyes weren’t on it–they were on the letter. It had fallen open.

I froze.

I exhaled, relieved. “Thank you, brother,” I said gently, taking my seat at the table. Calvin picked it up and began to read.

“Did you let them touch you?” he asked slowly, angrily, like the words themselves were poison in his mouth.

I gasped.

What was that look?

Inside was a delicate velvet pouch. He pulled it open and revealed—

How did he know that? 42

I’d buried that night so deep, I thought it would never surface again.

Just a strange stillness.

“Those men rejected you. Abused you. Treated you like trash. And not just once,he continued, his voice trembling with rage. “You nearly died because of them!

After a few seconds, he gave a small nod and returned to eating without a word.

“Last night… where were you?” Calvin asked, his voice cold.

He didn’t answer right away. He just stood there, seething.

My blood froze.

“This just arrived for Lady Olivia,” he said, stepping forward.

There was no need to hide it anymore.

Nora and Lolita bowed politely before turning to walk away. But as they did, I noticed

I blinked at him, startled, but slowly lowered my hand. “Okay…”
