A Second Chance with the CEO After Divorce

Chapter 380:

Belinda sharply cut him off, saying, “So your way of preventing me from ‘losing my way’ was to accuse me of prostitution to damage my reputation? Is that it? If Madisyn hadn’t been with us tonight, I would be the talk of the town by tomorrow. Kristopher, I don’t think I ever wronged you during the three years of our marriage, from the time we married until our divorce. Is this how you repay me?”

Kristopher’s hand froze on the phone, and his expression instantly grew cold. “I didn’t intend to tarnish your reputation.” He just… acted out of desperation.

He was still leaving Eden View when he decided to make the report about Belinda and Fred. As Cathy had mentioned, when he called, Belinda was in the shower. If he waited to drive the eighteen miles to the hotel, it would be too late. Kristopher feared that Belinda and Fred would actually have sex, which led him to this regrettable decision. At that time, Kristopher wasn’t out to get back at or ruin Belinda. He was simply concerned for her.

He couldn’t bear the thought of Belinda having sex with another man, of her belonging to someone else. So, after making the report, when Marc informed Kristopher that Madisyn was also present in Belinda and Fred’s room, Kristopher felt a wave of relief. It eased his mind significantly.

I thought that was just how business is done. All businessmen play dirty. It seemed normal. But I never expected you to use those methods
