Mr. Fake-Mute's Love Game Ended When I Stopped Playing the Fool novel Chapter 108

That night, Harry didn’t come home–no text, no call, nothing.

I didn’t ask because honestly? I didn’t give a damn anymore.

The next morning, I got to the office early.

Harry was CEO. I was Head of R&D.

Five years ago, we started this company in a garage. Now we had a downtown high–rise in the heart of Manhattan. Our business boomed, our marriage

Bianca twisted her ankle getting out of the car last night, so I stayed to help her out.” He paused, watching for my reaction. “It got late, so I just grabbed a hotel

nearby.”

looked up from the contract and laughed. Actually laughed. “Oh, wow. A twisted ankle. How convenient.”

Harry blinked, clearly thrown off. “What’s that supposed to mean?”

‘Nothing. Sleep wherever you want, Harry. Sleep with whoever you want. I really don’t care anymore.”

He stared at me like I’d slapped him. Good. Maybe it was finally sinking in.

printed out the divorce papers, shoved them into my bag, and headed out.

As I left the building, Harry’s car screeched up beside me. He rolled down the window, already distracted. “Go home and get ready. I’ve got a client meeting, but

I’ll be there soon.”

Before I could tell him I wasn’t going home to play dress up for him, he peeled off.

I used to spend two hours getting ready for dates with him. Hair. Makeup. Trying on five different outfits because I wanted to look perfect for him.
