A Second Chance with the CEO After Divorce

Chapter 28:

Helen looked up, baffled, gazing at Kristopher as if she doubted her own ears. “Kristopher?”

Kristopher’s expression darkened, his tone firm. “What happens between Belinda and me is none of your business.”

Carol quickly silenced Helen, her hand over her mouth, whispering sternly, “That’s enough. Shut up!” Helen complied, falling silent.

The room sank into a deeper silence after the exchange.

Anthony shot Kristopher an icy look and said mockingly, “I was under the impression you’d forgotten Belinda was your wife.”

With a knowing smirk, Kristopher responded, his tone laced with respect, “Believe me, that’s one thing I could never forget.”

Anthony’s scoff was loaded with skepticism. “If you really remembered, then why—”

“Anthony.”

Before Anthony could continue, Belinda cut him off.

She handed him a cup of freshly brewed tea, offering a gentle smile. “Here, drink some tea.”

Anthony’s frown softened as he accepted the cup, his voice mixed with concern and frustration. “When will you learn to express your feelings? You keep everything bottled up inside, which isn’t good for you. Look at you! You’ve let it all get to you again. I haven’t seen you in a month, and you’ve lost so much weight!”
