He Lost Me to His Best Friend novel Chapter 68

To the Flynn family, her daughter's birth meant absolutely nothing. It was something they could simply discard.

Her life and death meant nothing to them.

Scarlett closed her eyes, remembering how she had clutched her shattered heart on the day of the Christening Party, crying the entire way home. The memory tore her apart.

Clarissa's eyes turned red. Having never shown an ounce of emotion in front of others, she reached out, trying to pull Scarlett into a hug.

Triggered by the trauma, Scarlett violently shoved away her sudden kindness.

"Enough! Stop pretending!"

"You want to hug me now? Where were you before?!"

"My baby didn't just pop out of thin air. I carried her for ten whole months! And in all those ten months, did anyone in the Flynn family ever show an ounce of care?"

"Forget about the pregnancy. When someone is in labor, the entire maternity ward is filled with families waiting anxiously, worrying about the mother's safety! And what about you? Not a single one of you ever cared about me or my daughter!"

"Scarlett, try to calm down. Let's talk about this..."

Clarissa started crying, trying to soothe Scarlett and pull her into the office for a private conversation.

After all, airing these ugly details in front of the entire staff was beyond humiliating; it brought immense shame upon their whole family.

A massive crowd had already gathered. Employees had formed a tight circle, rows deep, and even people from other floors had come down to watch.

Every woman in the room, married or not, deeply empathized with Scarlett's suffering. They were crying their eyes out, turning the office into a sea of tears.

Scarlett aimed her knife right at Clarissa's outstretched hand, screaming.

"Stay away from me! It's too late! I've already realized that everyone in the Flynn family is cold-blooded and utterly heartless. I'm resigning, and I'm divorcing him!"

"Next, I'm going to register my daughter's birth. I'm officially announcing her name right here. Her name is Dawn. Dawn for a new beginning, and Langley to cut all ties with the Flynn family. We are severing every last connection to you!"

Yardley stood frozen in place, dumbstruck. His body felt as stiff as a wooden puppet, unable to move a single muscle.

Scarlett swept a cold gaze over the room, finally feeling a tiny sliver of vindication ease her suffocating chest...
