The Transactional Marriage That Imploded novel Chapter 235

Mathis instinctively turned his head, and in that split second, Bianca slipped inside and slammed the door shut.

She quickly sent him a text: *Don't even think about ringing the doorbell. I'm going to sleep.*

Mathis replied: *Don't pull this kind of stunt on me again. If you don't want to see me, just say so.*

Bianca rolled her eyes. *As if you ever listen? Can't you see how sick I am of you?*

*Would you even leave if I told you to?*

*I would.*

Bianca didn't buy it for a second. It wouldn't be the first time he'd broken a promise.

When you accumulate enough disappointment, you stop having expectations entirely—especially when it came to a cheating ex.

She had spent far too much time with Mathis today. It was utterly suffocating.

Thankfully, Mathis didn't try to force his way back in.

After freshening up, Bianca sat in bed scrolling through her phone. Just as she expected, her feed was flooded with news of Mathis proposing to Cynthia.

The massive diamond had already been analyzed by various gossip blogs: a custom eight-carat Graff pink diamond, valued at a staggering fifty million.

The vivid pink stone was set in a platinum band paved with baguette-cut white diamonds. The rough stone itself was entirely unique, graded as a top-tier Fancy Vivid Pink.

The flawless pear cut maximized the brilliance of the pink hues.

Under the bright lights, the interior flashed with a mesmerizing gradient of peach, rose, and strawberry pink, refracting a dazzling golden-pink fire.

Finding a rough stone of that caliber was incredibly rare and took at least a year. It was a glaring testament to just how much effort Mathis had put into pleasing Cynthia.

At lunch today, when Cynthia received the ring, her heart had soared into the clouds.

She stared at the massive diamond for a long time, deeply moved by the profound affection it represented.
