How to Destroy a Cheater Without Saying Goodbye novel Chapter 193

"Minister, have you been to Capitol City before? You seem to know your way around so well," Claire asked.

Blanche smiled and answered plainly, "I've visited a few times."

"Come with me later to pick out a gift."

"Are you visiting someone's home?"

"Yes."

Meanwhile, in the next private room—

Rebekah stared at Eddy, who'd barely touched his food. "Eddy, every place you suggested is a classic honeymoon spot, you know?"

"Have you been before…?"

"I went with my wife." As soon as Eddy mentioned Blanche, a dull ache settled in his chest.

"Oh, I see…" Rebekah thought Eddy was wonderful in every way—except for his stubborn devotion to the woman who had abandoned him. She wondered when he'd finally move on.

Just then, Rebekah's phone started buzzing. She glanced at the caller ID, her eyes lighting up with excitement.

"It's my brother!" she exclaimed, hurrying out of the room to answer.

Rebekah had met Eddy through her mother, Loraine, who'd played matchmaker. Initially, Eddy hadn't cared much—he never gave any woman a real chance. But when he learned that the McCarthy family was one of the most influential in Capitol City—and with his investigation into Pacifica Isle hitting a wall—he realized their connections might help. Expanding his business into Capitol City, he inevitably interacted with Rebekah.

Her brother, judging by the way everyone spoke about him, must hold a significant position.

Out in the hallway—

"Bro, since when did you become such a romantic? When did you get a wife? Mom and Dad are going to be over the moon!" Rebekah's voice bubbled through the phone.

"She'll be coming by the house tonight. Don't scare her off."

"Oh my god, she's not just your wife, she's already expecting too? So when's the wedding? You haven't been home in years! She's here in Capitol City—why aren't you coming back with her? You're serving your country, not vanishing off the face of the earth! Do you know how worried Mom and Dad have been?"
