How to Destroy a Cheater Without Saying Goodbye novel Chapter 66

Blanche pulled her phone from her bag and dialed. "Since Eddy invited you all here, I'll just call him right now."

"Let's have him tell me himself—who is really Mrs. Simmons, wife of the Simmons Group CEO?"

Jeannette watched, trembling with nerves as Blanche pressed the call button.

Every argument with Blanche had ended badly for her; she was terrified. "No, no, that's not necessary. We'll just go."

But the call connected.

"Hey, sweetheart?"

Eddy's voice came through, sounding tired and lazy.

"Get to the Summit Grand Hotel's VIP lounge right now," Blanche said, her voice cool and sharp. "There are people here claiming to be your in-laws and your wife. They say you invited them for dinner."

Everyone in the room held their breath, straining to catch every word.

Even Jeannette couldn't help hoping for a miracle. After all, she was pregnant. Surely Eddy would care about that, wouldn't he?

"Darling, who's been spouting nonsense and making you upset? I'm in the middle of an international meeting; I really can't get away. Please handle it for me, will you?" Eddy's voice softened, as if he were speaking to her alone.

"Gotta go, love you."

The call ended, leaving the room in stunned silence.

Pollock and Rhoda stared at each other in disbelief. Jeannette nearly collapsed against them, her face drained of hope.

Manager Francis, watching Blanche's expression carefully, barked, "Well? What are you waiting for? Get them out of here—don't let them sully Madam's eyes!"

"Yes, sir!"

At his command, security swept in and ushered the three out of the hotel.

"You can't do this!"
