He Gave Me a Divorce, I Gave Him Ruin Chapter 12

Chloe’s sickly sweet voice came through the phone, laced with a hint of triumph.

“Of course, darling. I thought she should see how happy you make me.”

Ethan’s control snapped.

“You idiot! I told you not to provoke her!”

“Who the hell do you think you are?”

Chloe’s tone shifted instantly, becoming wounded and confused.

“But you’re getting a divorce, Ethan. Aren’t you going to marry me?”

Ethan let out a harsh, contemptuous laugh.

“Marry you? When did I ever say I was going to marry you? My marriage to Amelia is tied to the interests of my entire family. Did you really think you could just waltz in and take her place?”

The other end of the line went silent for two seconds.

Then Chloe’s crying escalated into a shrill wail.

“Ethan, you can’t do this to me! I’m carrying your child—”

But Ethan had already hung up.

He grabbed his car keys and rushed out the door, not even bothering with a coat.

“Amelia! I’m so glad to see you’ve settled in.”
