The Cold Surgeon's Contract Bride novel Chapter 788

But when I arrived, I found Ferris sitting in the private room alongside Zoey.

The dinner was quickly derailed when Leon Lennox crashed the party. We used a bathroom break as an excuse to slip out together. Leon had intended to take me out drinking, but the moment we left the restaurant, Mrs. Lennox called him, forcing him to rush home.

I had gone to a bar alone, gotten drunk, and taken a cab back to Eden Gardens.

The background of this video was undoubtedly Eden Gardens.

But I clearly remembered Ferris never coming home that night. I assumed he had stayed with Zoey, because I spotted a hickey on his neck the next morning.

"Vixen... It seems you really care about your husband," Ferris murmured in the video, narrowing his eyes with an indecipherable smile.

"Bullshit! I don't give a damn about him! What's the point of caring? What's the point of loving him! I loved him for eight years, and what did I get? Not his heart, just his arrogant betrayal!" I screamed, my face blazing red.

Then, I tightened my grip around his neck and tilted my head. A bitter smile tugged at the corners of my mouth. "He's so arrogant he actually cheats on me to my face. Did you know, cutie? When I walked in today, I caught them kissing! Isn't he the worst? There are a million places to make out, but he does it right in front of me! He did it on purpose just to show off!"

"...Is there any chance you saw it wrong? Maybe they weren't kissing. Maybe my sweater got caught on her button, and we were just trying to untangle it," Ferris said softly, frowning.

He was trying to explain.

Explaining that he and Zoey had not been kissing.
