He Cheated I Rose Making Him Regret Everything (Chloe and Arthur) novel Chapter 318

**TITLE: A Promise Hidden in the Quiet Rain by Adrian Hale**
**Chapter 318: Bitter Confrontation**

The concept of sleeping together as three!

And there was Robert, grinning as if he had just won a grand prize!

When Arthur heard those words, a storm brewed inside him, and he finally reached his breaking point.

“Chloe!” His voice erupted like thunder, reverberating through the room and causing even the business representatives standing behind him to flinch.

“What kind of inappropriate conversation is this in front of a child?” he demanded, his tone laced with indignation.

“None of your business!”

“None of your business!”

Both Robert and Melinda retorted almost in perfect synchrony, their eyes narrowing at Arthur with an unmistakable contempt.

The sheer audacity of Robert’s words left Arthur momentarily speechless. It was one thing for that charming boy to hurl insults, but to hear such disrespect from his own son? How had Robert come to adopt such a callous attitude? How could he dare to address his father in such a manner?

“Robert, how can you speak to me like that? What on earth have they been teaching you?” Arthur’s expression hardened as he attempted to assert his authority. “You may excel academically, but that kind of rudeness is simply unacceptable. Once you return to the Myers family, I will ensure that you receive proper guidance from professional tutors.”

“Cut it out! You should be ashamed of yourself—I’m embarrassed for you! Who do you think you are?” Robert shot back, tilting his head defiantly, his youthful bravado on full display. “If you crave attention so much, why don’t you go star in some low-budget web series?”

“You…” Arthur’s voice faltered, caught off guard by the audacity of his son.

“I’m Robert Lewis. And who exactly are you?” Robert scoffed, reaching for Chloe and Melinda’s hands with a sense of ownership. “Mommy, let’s go with Leland! We’re having a sleepover tonight!”

“Alright,” Chloe replied softly, her demeanor calm yet resolute, as she took Robert’s hand, preparing to leave alongside Melinda.

Zachary had brought Robert over with the intention of finding a more pleasant place to spend time together, but their plans had been derailed upon encountering Arthur—his very presence felt like a dark cloud hovering over them.

The cheerful atmosphere had been completely shattered.

Just as Chloe began to lead Robert away, Arthur’s voice cut through the air once more, “Chloe, as the child’s mother, have you ever considered how an adult’s behavior can deeply impact a child? It could affect him for life.”

At this, Chloe halted, her footsteps coming to an abrupt stop.

Robert, who had been a few paces ahead, turned back at the sound of his mother’s pause.

Was it truly all his fault in the end?

Chloe… What would it take for her to alter her perception of him?

“Mr. Myers?” The business partners stood awkwardly, glancing at one another, unsure how to react after the dramatic exit of everyone involved.

“Get out!” Arthur snapped coldly, his irritation boiling over, the words escaping his lips like venom.

“Excuse me?” The partners stared at him in disbelief. Hadn’t he invited them here for dinner? Now he was dismissing them? The meal hadn’t even begun—did this mean their partnership was in jeopardy?

All Arthur could think about was that charming boy standing beside Chloe. His anger surged like a tidal wave, and he desperately sought an outlet for his frustration. When he finally regained his senses and realized he had just shouted at his partners in a fit of rage, regret washed over him.

“I apologize. I lost my temper just now,” Arthur said, bowing slightly in a gesture of sincerity.

The partners, who had been ready to storm out, hesitated, their anger tempered by the earnestness of his apology. They had been spectators to the scene that unfolded and had pieced together the tangled relationships.

Arthur’s personal life was undeniably… complicated. Was that woman his ex-wife? And the child—was that theirs? The thought of being ridiculed by his own son was a bitter pill to swallow.

Yet, they couldn’t deny it—his private affairs were indeed a chaotic mess.
