NovelEnglishChapter 569 What did Hailey just say? Ewan's expression darkened. "Hailey!" Hailey let out a sharp, mocking laugh. "Ewan, are you actually upset? What right do you have to be? It's perfectly fine for you to be with Melody-but if you keep pesteringlike this, don't blme for putting you in your place." They had broken up. They should have moved on and gone their separate ways. Yet, Ewan kept coming back, refusing to let her go.
And now, with fresh hickeys still visible on his neck, he had the audacity to grab her wrist. The contact sent a wave of revulsion through Hailey, making her skin crawl.
She yanked at her arm. "Ewan, let go of me." "You-" Ewan started, but before he could finish, Melody stormed out of the car, her face twisted with anger.
"Hailey, what the hell do you think you're doing? Ewan is my boyfriend now! And here you are, throwing yourself at him like sdesperate ex. Have you no shame?" Hailey stared at Melody in disbelief. "Melody, if your eyesight is that bad, I'd recommend getting it checked. Take a good look-who's grabbing who here?" She lifted her arm slightly, making it clear that Ewan was the one holding onto her.

Hailey looked directly at Ewan and said, "Ewan, your girlfriend is here. Let go ofnow. You wouldn't want her to get the wrong impression, would you?" But Ewan didn't even glance at Melody. His focus remained solely on Hailey. "Hailey, are you still with Declan?" She met his gaze without hesitation. "That's right. Declan is my boyfriend now." Boyfriend? That single word was like a blade to Ewan's chest.
A mocking smirk tugged at his lips. "Con, Hailey. With Declan's background, what could you possibly see in him?" Hailey's once bright, expressive eyes turned cold. "Ewan, don't look down on people because of your own prejudices. What's wrong with Declan? I've never once been ashamed of his background. More importantly, he's talented, hardworking, and capable-and I like him." She liked Declan-this much was true.
Ewan's anger flared like an uncontrollable fire. "Capable? Do you even know what he's up to now?" "Ewan, what exactly are you trying to prove this time? You already draggedto Declan's construction site, thinking I'd change my mind. But all you did was makerespect him even more. He works tirelessly, earns an honest living, and never takes shortcuts. That's what makes him truly admirable." Ewan clenched his jaw, his retort dying on his tongue.
Just then, Melody stepped forward and clung to his arm. "Ewan, it's obvious Hailey has moved on. You two broke up a long tago why are you still clinging to her?" Without hesitation, Ewan shook her off, forcefully shoving her aside.
"Get lost!" he snapped.
Caught off guard, Melody stumbled backward. Her high heel twisted beneath her, and she crashed to the ground in an ungraceful heap.
"Ahh!" she shrieked. "Ewan! I'm hurt!" But Ewan didn't even glance at her. His piercing gaze remained locked on Hailey.
"So, Declan doesn't steal or cheat, huh? Do you really think he's sm noble, hardworking man? Wake up, Hailey-you've idealized him. The man you think you know is nothing but an illusion." "Let go of me! I won't stand here and let you insult him!" Hailey snapped, forcefully yanking her arm free.

But Ewan wasn't about to let her leave. In one swift motion, he m grabbed her arm again, his grip unrelenting. "You're coming with me, Hailey." Before she could react, he was already dragging her toward his sports car.
Hailey's brows furrowed in frustration. "Ewan, what the the helli's! wrong with you? Why do you keep harassing me? Letgo!" "Shut up," Ewan growled, yanking open the passenger door before shoving her inside.
Hailey immediately tried to scramble out, but Ewan slammed a hand against the roof, trapping her in place.
"I'm taking you to see Declan. Don't you want to see him?" Hailey's breath caught in her throat.
