Mary had dealt with the Ashfords ' antics before , but this was a whole new level of ridiculous . Conner bellowed into the house , " Noelle ! Noelle Spencer ! Get out here ! I need to talk to you ! " He stormed into the Spencer residence like a madman . Mary , unable to stop him , had no choice but to hurry after him . " Caleb , I'm calling the cops if you don't knock it off . And when I do , don't blame me for embarrassing both our families . " But Conner strode through the house as if he owned it and headed straight for Noelle's room . Mary was baffled by how well he knew his way around the Spencer residence . Conner and Caleb were identical twins . She'd usually tell them apart by their quirks and mannerisms , but she wasn't sure which one she was looking at just then . Conner's shouting had jolted Noelle awake . She threw on some clothes and opened the door before he could barge in . Mary awkwardly stood behind him , but Noelle met her gaze with a nonchalant smile . " Mom , go get some rest . If Caleb came all this way at this hour , he must have something important to tell me . " Water dripped from Conner's clothes and onto the floor , leaving a trail of wet footprints with every step he took toward Noelle . As soon as Mary left , he seemed to lose all restraint . He stepped forward and wrapped his arms around Noelle's waist , his hot , damp breath brushing against her face . " Noelle , Mrs. Spencer said you're remarrying . She lied , right ? She had to be lying . How could you suddenly decide to remarry ? " Noelle's brows drew together , his closeness making her uneasy . She stepped back to put space between them . " My mom didn't lie .

Conner felt a crushing grip on his heart , and the pain was overwhelming . " No , no , " he muttered , shaking his head . " I must have heard wrongly . We were so good together . How could you turn around and marry someone else ? " Noelle mockingly arched a brow and smirked . " Caleb , did the rain scramble your brain ? Keep talking nonsense like that , and you'll put Sabrina's pregnancy at risk again . " She had nothing but contempt for Conner . If he wanted to act , he should've at least committed instead of giving himself away with such an obvious tell . She sneered . What a joke . How dare Conner even claim they had been so good together ? If that were true , he wouldn't Chapter 20 have faked his own death , pretended to be Caleb , and knocked Sabrina up . When Conner saw the familiar warmth in Noelle's eyes vanish and get replaced by a distant stare , something in him snapped . 2/2 " No , no ! I'm not your brother - in - law , and Sabrina isn't your sister - in - law either . You can't marry someone else . You're mine ! You're mine ! " He lunged at Noelle , but she slipped out of reach and stepped back . Cha
