The Shrimp Test My Girlfriends Regret — Novel

About

In a world where status defines worth, Adam Mason has spent three years in the shadow of Elisa Fox, the Iceberg Beauty of the elite. Bound by a promise to protect her—a dying wish from her mother—he endures a life of humiliation and servitude, peeling crayfish while her laughter rings hollow among the wealthy heirs. But as the clock ticks down on his self-imposed sentence, the façade of the obedient boyfriend begins to crack.

What happens when the line between loyalty and self-respect blurs? When Adam realizes he is not just a pawn in Elisa's game but the heir to a powerful dynasty himself? Each night, he bears witness to Elisa's betrayal, her affection for Kevin Gilbert cutting deeper than any knife. And yet, as their lives intertwine in a web of deception and ambition, Adam's patience thins.

With only hours left before he can reclaim his freedom, he faces a choice: remain the loyal servant or embrace the power that lies within his blood. Will he break the chains of his past and confront the truth, or will he continue to be the dog she believes him to be? In a game where love and pride collide, the stakes have never been higher.

The Shrimp Test My Girlfriends RegretChapter 1

On our third anniversary, a single phone call from her "best friend" was all it took.

My girlfriend didn't just cancel our plans—she dragged me straight to a bar and ordered me to peel three thousand crayfish for said best friend.

"Are you blind? Can't you see Kevin and the others are waiting to eat?"

Elisa Fox leaned into Kevin Gilbert's embrace, her gaze slicing over me like frosted glass.

"Kevin has delicate hands. He's not built for rough work." She flicked her wrist toward me. "You, on the other hand, have plenty of experience. Hurry up and peel them."

She wasn't finished.

"An orphan like you should be grateful. If Kevin's in a good mood later, he might toss you a red packet worth a year of your salary."

Kevin surveyed the cluster of wealthy heirs he'd summoned, his expression oozing servility.

"Gentlemen, I know you're used to being served." He swept his arm toward me like a ringmaster presenting a trained bear. "This is my good sister's boyfriend. He was born to serve. If you need anything—just bark."

They had no idea.

I am the sole heir of the Mason family. The lost son of the capital's most powerful dynasty.
