When Your Cheating Husband's Dream Become Your Divorce Evidence novel Chapter 35

Chapter 4

Back at our place, my phone buzzed twice-message from Kaden:

[Cora, don’t stay up too late chatting with Harper. I’ll pick you up bright and early.]

[Love you.]

Seeing that word “love” just made me sick.

Didn’t text back. Just deleted and blocked his ass.

At this moment, my emotions were all over the place and I needed a drink. Opened the fridge and saw rows of wine coolers lined up perfectly-

Same exact brands as in Tessa Sterling’s bar fridge.

downed two whole bottles. Once the alcohol hit, I finally lost it.

Smashed every piece of furniture in the place.

All those photo albums full of our memories, those hundreds of love letters he wrote me-stuff I’d treasured like gold-went up in flames.

Looking at the destruction, I left that house of lies.

The second I stepped outside, Harper called:

She teased: “Cora, your boy just called asking if we were hanging out.”

Where’d you go? Why am I your alibi?”

couldn’t hold back anymore and broke down completely.

Harper, can I come over?”

What happened?”

I don’t want this engagement.”

I’m breaking up with Kaden.”

When Harper heard the whole story, she was more pissed than I was.

That BASTARD! How dare he cheat!”

By then I was calm. Even grateful I’d found out when I did.

f I’d married him first and THEN discovered all this…

couldn’t even imagine how pathetic I would’ve looked.

That night, Harper and I talked for hours.

My emotions gradually stabilized.

After the pain came the anger of betrayal.

didn’t tell anyone to cancel the engagement party-just turned off my phone and slept straight through until noon the next day.

When I turned my phone back on, I had a million missed calls.

Meanwhile, someone was pounding on the door non-stop.

Harper pulled out her earplugs and groaned. “They’ve been at it for an hour. I’m worried the neighbors will call the cops.”

Ically brushed my teeth and washed my face before slowly opening the door.

When Kaden saw me, his face was pure rage.

“Cora, do you know what day it is?”

TODAY is our engagement party! You disappear right before it starts?”

He grabbed my wrist and tried to drag me out.

“The apartment’s trashed too. What the hell is wrong with you?”

“Everyone’s waiting for us!”

yanked my hand away.

I’m not doing this engagement.”

…Cora, have you lost your mind? Do you hear yourself?”

went back inside, pulled out nail clippers and cut off each fake nail.

Kaden went from raging mad to completely frozen-his pupils dilated in shock as he stood there like a deer in headlights.

Kaden, I gave you a chance.”

If you’d been honest with me, I would’ve broken up with you peacefully and canceled the party. At least it wouldn’t have been this ugly.”

But you kept treating me like an idiot. So I don’t need to spare your feelings anymore.”

Velvet bar. Have fun last night?”

Kaden completely panicked. He dropped to his knees and grabbed my hands.

Cora, let me explain…”

I don’t want to hear it!”
