How to Destroy a Cheater Without Saying Goodbye novel Chapter 185

But there was no way she'd let any security cameras catch her wherever she went.

She was watching him when his gaze suddenly darted after a flash of white in the distance.

He spotted the tulips she'd placed there.

His hand brushed the leaves—still damp—and, losing control, he grabbed the head bodyguard by the collar. "My wife was just here. Find her. Now."

"Yes, sir!"

Suddenly, a baby's cry broke out behind him.

Blanche pressed her hand over Mamie's mouth, her eyes flicking to Eddy.

But Eddy didn't see her. All he caught was a glimpse of white as a woman slipped out the back door and into a black sedan.

He staggered toward the exit.

He could only watch as the car disappeared at the intersection. The pain of losing her when she'd been so close was unbearable; he dropped to one knee, his voice raw with anguish. "Please, don't go," he pleaded, "Give me one more chance…"

Half an hour later, the bodyguards returned. "Sir, their driver knows these roads inside out. We—"

"We lost them."

Eddy collapsed to the ground, face twisted with regret.

A bodyguard shouted for help, and soon he was being loaded into an ambulance.

He could hear the bodyguards talking nearby.

"The baby in that man's arms looks about a year old."

"Guess she left our boss, got married, and had a kid."

"Looks like she's really done with our boss."

"Shh, keep your mouth shut." The head bodyguard cut them off.

As those words reached Eddy, his hand slipped from his chest and his eyes drifted shut. A single tear rolled down his cheek, and his face contorted with heartbreak.

At last, he'd tasted the same bitter pain she once felt.

The heart monitor let out a single, piercing beep—the sound of a heart stopping.
