Ex Cried as I Wed a Tycoon

Chapter 36

"Alright." Mitchell gritted his teeth as he answered.

He knew there was no stopping Effie now.

He couldn't figure out what had gotten into her-she was a completely different person these days.

Effie used to be utterly devoted to him. No matter how badly he behaved, she would always forgive him.

But this time, she was dead set on breaking up. No pleading, no games-she meant it.

At first, Mitchell thought she was just playing hard to get, but now, seeing her so determined, he realized she was serious.

Well, if he couldn't keep her, he'd at least squeeze out whatever use he could from her before she left.

Mr. Horace was notoriously difficult—and had a reputation for being a lech. None of the other designers wanted to deal with him.

So, Mitchell deliberately tossed this thorny problem Effie's way.

If Effie wanted out, she'd just have to handle it.

After work that evening, Effie texted Lyman to say she had a business dinner.

Lyman saw the message and, with nothing better to do at home, called up his childhood friend Vinson Elliott and a few buddies to go out for drinks.
