How to Destroy a Cheater Without Saying Goodbye novel Chapter 134

A hint of tenderness finally cracked in Eddy's expression. His eyes turned sharp and cold as he looked straight at Kelvin.

Suddenly, Kelvin yanked Jeannette down with him and dropped to his knees. His voice grew smaller and smaller, until it was barely a whisper. "Blanche, I never meant to be with Jean. She… she came on to me, and one thing led to another…"

To shield Eddy, Kelvin took every bit of blame onto himself. That kind of brotherly loyalty would move even the coldest heart. Blanche, however, could only laugh in disbelief.

Her gaze on Jeannette turned icy. "Like mother, like daughter! Your mother seduced Pollock, and now you've seduced him."

Blanche shook off Eddy's hand. "One's a homewrecker clinging to a married woman, the other's a shameless flirt, ruining other people's families. Disgusting. It must run in the blood."

Jeannette's face burned with anger and humiliation as Blanche's words cut into her, but she didn't dare talk back.

"And you!" Blanche turned her fury on Kelvin. "Never satisfied with what you have, always chasing after the next shiny thing, making promises of love one minute and falling for the first temptress who bats her eyes at you the next!"

Then she looked at Eddy. "You have no sense of decency. Did you leave your conscience at the door?"

Their eyes met. Blanche searched Eddy's calm face for any sign of guilt, but found none. Only his hand, clenched tightly at his side, betrayed the storm beneath.

Kelvin pressed Jeannette down, forcing her to bow her head to Blanche. "Blanche, I really shouldn't have done it. And Jean… she's set a terrible example for Healy. No wonder you're so angry."

"We've let you and Eddy down."

Jeannette was a pitiful sight, shoulders slumped and trembling. "Blanche… I'm sorry. I know I was wrong."

"Don't call me your sister," Blanche snapped. "You don't deserve it."

Jeannette's head jerked up, her eyes filled with wounded fury as she glared at Blanche.

The onlookers finally snapped out of their stupor. No one had ever heard Blanche, always so gentle and refined, speak so harshly.

Those who knew the inside story grew silent, glancing nervously at Eddy, barely daring to breathe.

"Just a few days ago at the Andersons' engagement party, the Simmons family went above and beyond. Everyone thought the Simmons and Blanche were so close. Turns out Blanche doesn't care about that little sister at all."
