Farewell to Love: The CEO's Desperate Chase novel Chapter 200

Emilia tried to slip past Tyler and head inside, but he blocked her way again.

"I already know that Chloe told you about the Dennis family," he said, tightening his grip on her wrist.

At the mention of the Dennis family, Emilia paused for a second and turned to look at him, waiting for his explanation.

"She's not joining that department," Tyler said, the night breeze ruffling his hair. "Ever since you left, it's been waiting for you."

Come back?

Emilia studied his face carefully.

But she had no intention of returning to the Erickson Group.

She'd had enough.

Tyler's expression didn't change; he was watching her just as closely. But, for the first time, he realized he couldn't read her at all.

A gentle wind stirred the fallen leaves at their feet.

"And then?" Emilia asked.

"And then?" Tyler frowned, thinking for a moment before answering, "Vivienne needed me for something, so I didn't go over."

Emilia let out a short laugh.

She remembered Chloe waving her phone around right in front of her—she'd caught a glimpse of the messages. Everything had been planned between them.

And now Tyler was trying to claim that Vivienne didn't do it on purpose?

Was he that bad at judging people, or did he really think she was that easy to fool?

Emilia was done with this. She wrenched her hand free and strode toward the stairwell.

Tyler moved to block her again.

"Tyler." Emilia couldn't take it anymore. She glared at him, her voice shaking with anger. "From the night you asked for a divorce until now, I haven't bothered you."

"It's you. All of you!"

Her fists clenched tight.

"You're the ones who turned our marriage into a spectacle for the whole world to see. Haven't you heard, or seen, what people say about me?"

Seeing Tyler's furrowed brow, those deep dark eyes, and his silence, Emilia let out a bitter laugh. She looked away and instead focused on a spider weaving its web in the corner of the stairwell.

"I know you care about her, that you feel sorry for her, that you love her," Emilia said quietly. "You told me she only has six months left."
