Ex Cried as I Wed a Tycoon

Chapter 178

"Let go." His voice was cold as he shot Suzan a warning glance.

Suzan bit down hard on her lip, eyes brimming with tears. Her voice trembled with hurt. "After everything I've done for you-and now that I'm pregnant-this is how you treat me?"

Mitchell let out a short, mocking laugh, his gaze filled with scorn. "Suzan, don't act like you're some kind of martyr. Who was it that climbed into my bed, even though you knew I was dating Effie? Who seduced whom?"

He leaned in, words as sharp as knives. "Who strutted around in front of Effie, rubbing it in her face? And now you want to play the victim?"

Suzan's face drained of color, her fingers trembling.

"What's wrong? Nothing to say?" Mitchell looked down at her, sneering. "Did I get anything wrong?"

Suzan's chest heaved, her nails digging deep into her palms.

Leave? How could she just walk away now? She'd schemed so hard to get this far-there was no way she'd give it all up without a fight.

She quickly softened her tone, her voice pleading. "Mitchell, how can you say that about me? I worry about you because I love you."

Mitchell harshly shook her hand off.

Suzan lost her balance, stumbling and hitting the edge of a chair as she fell to the floor.
