How to Destroy a Cheater Without Saying Goodbye novel Chapter 232

“Ew—Mommy, that’s embarrassing! You kissed Daddy!”

Mamie’s little voice chimed out from the phone’s speaker.

Blanche’s cheeks flushed with warmth the instant she heard her daughter’s words.

She was still nestled in Ablett’s arms, her lips brushing the hollow of his throat. Realizing how compromising their position must look, she scrambled upright, trying to compose herself. “No, that’s not what happened…”

Ablett, behind her, replied as well, his Adam’s apple bobbing slightly, though his tone remained calm and even. “No, it didn’t.”

He caught sight of the flush creeping up her ear and couldn’t help the amused curve of his lips.

“Daddy, Mommy—when are you coming home?”

Mamie was impossibly adorable, her wide eyes blinking as she giggled behind her tiny hands.

Blanche felt a wave of tension slip away. She smiled. “We’ll be back in a few days, sweetheart.”

Ablett reached for Blanche’s wrist and gently pulled her to sit beside him.

“But where’s Daddy?” Mamie piped up, not spotting Ablett in the video frame.

Blanche angled the phone so Ablett’s face appeared on screen.

He leaned in, his lips brushing softly against the side of Blanche’s neck, his breath warm against her ear. Watching the flush deepen on her earlobe, he kept his composure and spoke to Mamie, “I’ll come home with your mom.”

Mamie’s face lit up at that, eyes sparkling with excitement. “Yay! I missed you!” Then, suddenly, she peered closer, her voice full of curiosity. “Daddy, why were you sneaking peeks at Mommy?”

Ablett’s lashes lifted just a bit, betraying nothing of his thoughts. He reached up and tucked a loose strand of Blanche’s hair behind her ear. “Her hair was in the way,” he replied.

His fingers were cool and lingered just long enough on her burning earlobe to send a shiver down Blanche’s spine.

She handed the phone to Ablett and turned slightly away, her face still burning.

But then, unbidden, Leda’s situation crept into her mind, cooling her mood instantly.

She thought of how Eddy had always put on a tender front in public, while turning cruel and ugly behind closed doors. The memory left her chest tight and aching.
