When My Ex's Worst Enemy Became My Sanctuary novel Chapter 160

Mamie didn’t even hesitate. “Take your stuff and leave. My parents don’t need it. We’re over.”

Claire’s brows drew together, her voice sharp with annoyance. “Mamie, what’s going on? How can you talk to Addison like that?”

Addison froze for a second, then forced a laugh. “Mamie, come on. Yesterday was just a little misunderstanding. Don’t get so upset. We can’t threaten to break up every time we argue.”

Mamie folded her arms, stunned he was still pretending. “Addison, I saw you cheating with my own eyes. Are you seriously calling that a misunderstanding? Was kissing your secretary in public just some mix-up too?”

Addison clung to his last hope. He had no plans to let go of the chance to be part of the Main family. “Mamie, you really got it wrong. She had something in her hair, I was just helping. We were just getting ready to meet a client, that’s all.”

“You already hit me yesterday. I could pretend that never happened. But do we really have to break up? I fired that secretary today, just to prove I’m telling the truth. Isn’t that enough?” Addison’s eyes were red as he pleaded.

Claire looked shocked at first, but Addison did sound sincere. Besides, everybody already knew about the upcoming wedding. Canceling it now would be so hard to explain to the relatives.

“Mamie, I think Addison really means it. Maybe it was just a misunderstanding?”

Mamie didn’t even look at her mother. Her voice was steady. “I’m not marrying him. I’m breaking up with him for good. My eyes work just fine. I know the difference between fixing someone’s hair and kissing them.”

She snatched the stuff Addison had brought and gave him a shove toward the door. “Get out of my house. You’re not welcome here.”

The door slammed shut.

Mamie finally felt like she could breathe.

Claire stood there, her mouth open. “Mamie, don’t you think you’re being a little rash?”
