My Brother’s Girlfriend Set Rules For Me, Until Karma Came For Her Chapter 02

No garment bag. No tissue paper.

The gold-thread embroidery was crumpled into a ball. The hand-beading was crooked or missing. The once sheer, soft lace trim was stained with something oily and yellow.

“What’s wrong? You don’t like it?”

Seeing my expression, Grayson leaned over.

One look, and he froze. “How did this happen? The dress was fine when I checked this morning!”

Paige spoke slowly. “It’s just a dress. What’s the big deal? Just wash it.”

My face turned cold. “You did this?”

She looked completely unbothered. “I did, but it was an accident.”

“I saw it on the table and thought it was for me, so I tried it on. It was a little small, and it took me forever to squeeze into it.”

I took a deep breath. “If something is placed in front of you, does that make it yours?”

Her face flushed red. “This is my boyfriend’s place and mine! I haven’t even asked you why you made my boyfriend get you a birthday gift! And that dress? It’s shameless!”

I was shaking with anger.

“What do you mean, shameless?”

Her expression was disgusted. “Don’t play dumb. I’m a woman. You think I don’t know what that is? That’s obviously something you wear in bed. For a man.”

Silence fell around us.

I heard blood rushing through my chest like firecrackers going off, exploding until I was stunned.

Grayson exploded first. “Who told you it was that kind of thing? Paige, are you insane? She’s my sister! My twin!”

The woman’s face went red, then white. Tears fell instantly.

“Grayson, what is that supposed to mean?”

“Are you seriously yelling at me right now? Over another woman?”

“Didn’t I tell you? If you’re with me, there are no other women. Period. And nothing inappropriate. Ever.”

“I broke my own rules for you. I forced myself to be okay with you having a sister. And now you’re yelling at me because of her?”

“Grayson, you’re really something.”

The second he saw her tears, all the fight drained out of him.

His voice softened. “Paige, baby, come on. Don’t do this. She’s my sister. We have the same mom. She’s not another woman.”

“And that dress? It’s formal wear. What are you even thinking?”

Paige wouldn’t let it go.

“Even if I got it wrong, what gives her the right to question me like that?”

“Did you not see the yellow ring on that dress? It ruined the makeup I spent all morning doing!”

“And what about me? Did anybody even ask how I felt?”

I couldn’t listen anymore. I got up to leave.

Grayson hurried over and grabbed me.

“Sienna, listen to me. Paige is just the jealous type…”

Paige screamed and rushed over, tearing Grayson’s hand away.

“Ah—Grayson! I won’t let you touch her!”

Her sharp nails scratched my arm instantly.

I looked down at the stinging spot. A shallow but visible bloody line appeared.

In my whole life, except for blood from riding injuries at the Greenwich equestrian club when I was little, when had I ever suffered this kind of humiliation?

Paige clearly saw it too. She stopped talking.

But she still clung to Grayson’s hand and hid behind him.

Grayson froze. His eyes went red instantly. “Sienna, you…”

I looked at him coldly. I didn’t want to say a single word. I turned and left.
