THE DIVORCE GAMBIT From Dumped Wife to CEO's Forever novel Chapter 1138

"What? It's real?" The words struck Xander like a bolt of lightning.

How… how could this happen?

Xander fought to keep his composure, forcing a smile. "Sweetheart, can you tell me what happened between you three?"

Elsa recounted the entire story, holding nothing back this time. "From the moment they met you, Caitlin and Gertrude had a bad impression. They thought you were just playing me, that you weren't sincere at all…"

The more Elsa spoke, the angrier she became. She had treated them like her best friends, and this was how they had treated her.

Xander's heart pounded in his chest with every word. She was insane! Elsa was completely insane! A person of her station, lucky enough to be friends with someone like Caitlin—it was the blessing of several lifetimes, and she had thrown it all away.

If it wasn't for Caitlin, did she really think he would have married someone like her? Now they were married, and she was telling him she had cut ties with Caitlin. What did that make him? A clown?

She had traded something small for something much better. She may have lost two fake friends, but she had gained true love. If she had let Xander go, would she ever find a man as good as him again? Impossible.

Xander, his eyes still red, said, "Honey, if you knew from the beginning that Miss Kensington and Miss Gertrude thought I wasn't good enough for you, why didn't you tell me? If you had told me, I would have stepped aside! Now, because of me, your eight-year friendship is ruined."

He finished with an expression of profound self-reproach. It was all an act, but it was a masterful one.
