Help My Tycoon Husband Refuses To Divorce novel Chapter 10

Chapter 10: Get Her Back

The solemn procession out of the hospital was silent and heavy, the weight of grief pressing against them like a suffocating fog.

Leading his men with quiet resolve, Evander Cruz carried out his final duty to his late commander, escorting Lazarus Quinn’s lifeless body.

The world had moved too fast—one moment, Lazarus had been alive, and now he was gone, with no time for goodbyes.

Their first stop was the old commander’s residence, where funeral arrangements would be handled.

Meanwhile, Caspian Vale remained by Selene’s side, his presence steady but powerless as she struggled to contain her grief.

She fought valiantly to keep her tears in check, but the raw sorrow in her eyes was enough to shatter him.

The Final Blow

As they approached the car, Selene suddenly stopped.

Her expression was unreadable, but there was a bitter finality in her eyes.

Elowen’s words still echoed in her mind, fueling her next decision.

She turned to Caspian.

Her voice was steady, but void of warmth.

“Caspian, once I’ve taken care of Grandpa’s funeral, let’s divorce.

Three years is long enough—we need to set each other free.”

The words hit like a gunshot to the chest.

Caspian froze, his jaw tightening.

His deep voice dropped into a dangerous whisper.

“Selene, I’ve never once thought about divorcing you.”

Selene’s lips curled into a faint, cold smile.

It was a smile that held the weight of endless disappointments.

“Grandpa is gone now,” she said softly, her tone laced with quiet finality. “Without him, my family is no longer an asset to yours.

Maybe you didn’t consider divorce before.

But now? It’s the perfect time.“

“Selene!” Caspian’s voice snapped, his teeth clenching in frustration.

But she didn’t stop.

“And let’s not forget—Lyra’s pregnant.“

Her words were ice-cold, each syllable deliberately cruel.

“Isn’t it time you gave her and your baby a proper home?”

Caspian’s eyes darkened.

He grabbed her wrist, his grip firm but not harsh.

His deep, commanding voice trembled with restrained emotion.

“Selene, why can’t you trust me just this once?“

His next words made her blood run cold.

“Lyra is like a sister to me. Nothing more.“

Selene’s gaze hardened, her lips curling into disbelief.

“Sister? You got your ‘sister’ pregnant? And now you expect me to believe that lie?”

The sheer audacity of his words made her want to laugh.

Instead, she yanked her hand away.

“Let me go,” she said, her voice sharp.

Evander stepped forward, sensing the rising tension.

His cold gaze locked onto Caspian, his body tensing, ready to intervene if necessary.

He didn’t care about Caspian’s military rank—his only priority was Selene’s well-being.

But Selene didn’t want a scene.

With one last look of finality, she turned and climbed into the car.

She never looked back.

And Caspian?

He stood there, watching helplessly as she disappeared down the road, a part of him vanishing with her.
