Her Revenge Was His Regret (Shirley and Gilbert) novel Chapter 306

He even felt heartbroken over that bitch Sherry.

"You're a man," Julia said, her voice laced with annoyance. "The last thing you should do is sit around discussing feelings like a woman. Trust me, women hate that.

"Men are logical. Women are emotional. Look at any successful guy—how many of them are obsessed with love and romance?"

Gilbert nodded. That's exactly why being with Julia felt so easy.

Unlike those tacky women who talked nonstop about their feelings, whining about how wronged they are every day—did they even look at where the Bode Group stood today?

That success didn't fall from the sky—he'd fought for every inch of it.

And Sherry had the nerve to dig up old arguments, things he'd said in anger, and throw them back at him—so petty. Since when did married couples keep score?

He completely missed the irony—that he'd just been furious moments ago, but Sherry wasn't supposed to feel the same way. Marriage meant she should just take it.

"She doesn't get it," he complained to Julia. "She actually thinks Lucas defending her online means something. She's probably swooning over it."

Julia knew about the online drama, but not all the details.

Then she saw Lucas' words. They burned into her eyes like acid.

That should have been for her.

How dare he say that to someone as plain and unremarkable as Sherry?

Her hands curled into fists.

Just then, Cathy arrived with Julia's luggage. She knew everything now.

After Gilbert left, she lowered her voice. "Lucas didn't say anything before. He waited until you got out to post that online.

"I'm pretty sure it was meant for you."

"For me?" Julia's eyes went wide with innocent confusion, though she understood perfectly.

Cathy had been watching. She'd learned how dangerous Julia really was. Not just smart, but willing to do whatever it took. And she could play the long game.

Men bought every word she said. Add that face to the mix, and they were completely wrapped around her finger.

Cathy had seen women go up against Julia—how they shouted on day one, and then never saw them again.

Even when she'd hinted at Julia's tactics to some men, they didn't care. They were still obsessed. That told her everything.
