After Divorce, My General Husband Chasing Me Back novel Chapter 46

Chapter 46 A Self–Inflicted Demise 

Emily initially believed the girl might not withstand the ordeal. 

However, each girl who entertained Neil ended up in a mental hospital or dead. 

After three such incidents, Hannah ceased assigning girls to 

serve Neil. 

From then on, Hannah personally attended to him, ensuring no further tragedies occurred. 

Neil’s visits were on the 10th of every month, and Hannah typically remained present. 

Yet, this time, for reasons unknown, Hannah had been absent for an unusually long period. 

Emily had volunteered to come to Eclipse Nightclub’s underground. 

Her father had died in a car accident, and her mother, remarrying, brought her along, where her stepfather eyed her with lecherous intent, attempting to rape her. 

Her mother accused Emily of being a temptress, seducing her 

husband. 

One night, they forced Emily onto the bed for her stepfather to

She resisted fiercely that night, but her stepfather succeeded.

In the aftermath, she turned on them, stabbing her stepfather and mother as they slept. 

She then surrendered to the police and was sentenced. 

Upon her release from prison, she sought refuge in Eclipse Nightclub’s underground because she was unable to live a normal life after her ordeals. 

She didn’t believe in family, in love, or in any of the emotions that others clung to in this world. The only thing she trusted was 

herself. 

She threw herself into work with a relentless drive, always topping the rankings. She was determined to make money. 

She desired never to be helpless, coerced, or humiliated again. 

Claire’s presence disrupted Eclipse Nightclub’s established order, and Emily harbored a deep resentment towards her. 

Yet, her disgust did not extend to killing Claire by sacrificing 

Claire to Neil. 

Moreover, if things spiraled out of control and harm befell Claire, Hannah’s return would demand explanations Emily couldn’t provide.

“Forget it. I’ll call Hannah to see if she’ll be back by the 10th,” Emily said.

After mulling it over, she couldn’t shake the uneasy feeling that gnawed at her. With a sense of urgency, she reached for her cell phone to dial Hannah’s number. 

But all Emily heard was the cold, mechanical drone of an automated voice, “Hello, you’ve reached Hannah Evans. I’m not available right now, but please leave a message after the beep, and I’ll get back to you as soon as possible. Thank you!” 

Yet, she persisted, dialing the number several times, but each call to Hannah was met with failure. 

Over the next several days, Emily made countless calls, but Hannah’s phone remained stubbornly out of reach. 

Claire, oblivious to these machinations, believed that diligence in her duties would ensure a stable life. 

That belief was shattered one night as she disposed of trash, overhearing a man and a woman engaged in sex in the stairwell. 

She curiously paused. This underground Eclipse Nightclub, known to many as a shadowy realm, was where men and women had sex to release their desires. 

Who would choose the echoing stairwell over the secluded rooms to have sex? 

Unless the affluent, whose wealth had crafted a world where

conventional boundaries blurred, indulged in eccentric habits. 

But regardless of how bizarre or outlandish it seemed, this affair was none of her concern. No matter who was involved, Claire had no desire to entangle herself in the affairs of others. She sought only to navigate her own path in peace. 

She allowed a smile to grace her lips, shaking her head and turning to depart. Just then, a name, achingly familiar, floated through the air, stopping her in her tracks. 

“Emma, you know how much I love you? I love you forever. You’re the most beautiful in Eclipse Nightclub.
