After Divorcing my Captain Husband (Chloe and Michael) novel Chapter 416

Chapter 416 A Slap

Michael dispatched Ethan to deliver the ticket and promptly drove over, his urgency fueled by the fear of missing Chloe.

His heart finally settled slightly when he saw her.

"You're really here!"

Chloe frowned and responded with sarcasm, "I didn't expect you to be a fan of Borges, Mr. Shawn. I thought your reading material was limited to business success manuals."

Michael was momentarily silenced.

He felt the sting of her words and wondered if she was mocking his world of profit-driven business acumen.

"Chloe, must you be so cutting? Didn't you come here today hoping for a chance to talk to me?"

Michael misunderstood her sarcasm due to her strong sense of pride.

"Mr. Shawn, you overestimate yourself. Had I known you'd be here, I'd have chosen tomorrow."

The poetry gathering spanned three days.

Thus, her encounter with Michael felt like a stroke of bad luck.

As Chloe headed to the restroom and passed him, Michael grasped her wrist.

"Chloe, I want to discuss the possibility of our remarriage."

Chloe felt ridiculous.

"If you're looking to lose your mind, don't involve me!"

Her good mood was now in ruins.

Michael watched her retreat into the restroom, feeling somewhat adrift.

His thoughts were messy, and his words to Chloe did not reflect his true intentions.

He acknowledged his ineptitude with words.

When Chloe emerged three minutes later, she found Michael still waiting. His persistence grated on her.

"I don't care whose child you're carrying. After we remarry, I'll raise it as my own and won't hold it against you."

Michael declared, but his words irrigated Chloe again.

"Hold it against me? What right do you have to hold anything against me?"

"You conceived another man's child during our marriage, and I haven't contested it. Isn't that concession enough?"

Chloe laughed furiously.
