My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire！

759  Chapter 758
Ellie trembled slightly.
It felt like her world was collapsing.
When she first heard it was Darien who had bribed her maid, she didn't believe it. She thought Darien would never harm her, so when Mollie stepped forward and confirmed it, she had no choice but to believe.
But she never expected...
She never expected herself to be the fool—the completely hopeless fool!
Darien was actually behind everything!
Ellie took a deep breath, the shock and disbelief flooding her mind with no outlet. She wanted to scream, to run, to escape it all...
But a hand gripped her wrist tightly, stopping her from pulling off the headphones as if forcing her to face the cold, harsh truth.
Ellie squeezed her eyes shut, covering her ears as she sank to the ground, muttering, "It can't be... He saved my life, so why would he do this? It's not true…"
Maybe her murmurs triggered the audio because Mollie's voice came through again. "Darien, why is she still clinging to you? You've treated her like trash, and she still doesn't give up. What a pathetic loser. Ugh, I can't stand it!"
Then Darien's voice followed, cool and dismissive. "It's simple. There was an accident a while back, and a firefighter saved her. I was just nearby, but she mistook me for him. Ever since then, she's been obsessed with me. Thanks to that incident, I can do whatever I want to her, and she still won't leave."
As his smug laughter echoed through the headphones, it was like a knife plunging deep into Ellie's heart.
Her hand pressed hard against her chest as she lifted her head in disbelief. "It wasn't him? It really wasn't him?!"
Her eyes cleared in an instant like she'd been slapped awake. She shot up to her feet, her gaze burning with anger and disbelief as it fixed on Darien.
"How could it not be him?
"How could this be happening!!"
Ellie was stunned, but it was as if she'd finally come to a painful realization.
Shaking, she glanced at Keira and then at Ryan.
Ryan hadn't heard the conversation through the headphones. He stepped forward, concern on his face, and held her arm, "Ellie, what's wrong?"
"It wasn't him, Ryan. It wasn't him…"
Ellie's expression flickered between a bitter smile and tears.
She looked devastated yet couldn't fully process the truth.
Keira knew Ellie had been in love with Darien for over three years, and this revelation was going to be hard for her to accept.
Just as Keira was about to say something, Ellie let out a low chuckle, her whole body relaxing as if a weight had been lifted. "How could I have been in love with this scumbag for three and a half years?"
Pointing at her heart, Ellie looked at Ryan and said slowly, "Ryan, I think I finally understand."
"Understand what?"
Ellie shook her head. "I don't know why, but I used to be infatuated with him, obsessed. But now, knowing he wasn't the one who saved me, that obsession… it's just gone."
She pointed at her chest. "Now, all I feel here is hatred."
With that, she shot Darien a furious look.
Ellie, the proud daughter of the Cobb family, had been deceived by this jerk for three and a half years.
There was no way she was going to let him get away with that!
Suddenly, Ellie yanked off the Bluetooth headphones and handed them to Keira. She strode over to Darien with purpose.
Darien and Mollie were whispering to each other, most of their conversation filled with insults about Ellie's stupidity.
As they were chatting, the light around them dimmed unexpectedly.
Darien turned his head and saw Ellie standing right next to him, her expression cold as she stared him down.
He blinked in surprise before frowning, "Why are you back?"
Ellie didn't answer.
Darien glanced over at Keira and Ryan before addressing her, "Are these your friends? So, you guys came to the bar together?"
At that, a few of his friends, sitting nearby chatting with Mollie, chimed in.
"Ellie Cobb, are you seriously still at this? You're so obsessed with Darien. it's making the rest of us miserable!"
"Yeah, how shameless can you be? Don't you know Mollie is Darien's girlfriend? You're disgusting!"
They were Mollie's friends, and Darien loved to boast in front of them.
Now, hearing this, he frowned at Ellie and added, "Didn't I tell you to leave? If you want to hang out with your friends, go to the other side!"
Ellie glared at him. "Why should I?"
"Because," Mollie sneered, "you're just a servant in Darien's family! Everything you spend comes from Darien's pocket, and yet you still have the nerve to stick around? Ellie Cobb, you're beyond shameless!"
Rolling her eyes, Mollie stood up and got in Ellie's face. "Now, leave. immediately."
Ellie chuckled coldly at her and turned back to Darien. "This rich-boy act of yours—isn't it getting old?"n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
