Tonight Her Love Ended novel Chapter 197

Staring at the bright red handprint on Kieran's face, Chuck Clayton asked, "What happened?"

Kieran's gaze shifted directly to Tristan. "There's something I think you need to know."

With that, Kieran pulled out his phone and played an audio recording.

When Nova had pulled out her recorder earlier, Kieran had wised up and hit record on his own phone.

Coincidentally, he captured this exact moment: "You were totally right before, Kieran. I actually have absolutely no intention of divorcing Tristan. Everything I do is just a desperate attempt to save this marriage. I love Tristan so much I can't stand the thought of losing him. Not only will I exhaust every possible trick, but I am going to keep having his babies so I can firmly secure my position as Mrs. Forrester and trap him forever..."

As the recording echoed through the room, dead silence fell over the private suite.

"Did she leave that mark on your face?" Chuck had always known Nova was manipulative and looked down on her, but for her to admit it so brazenly meant she was heavily relying on Belinda's protection.

Kieran nodded.

Chuck's expression turned incredibly serious as he looked at Tristan. "Tristan, what do you have to say about this?"

Tristan took Kieran's phone and replayed the audio.

No one could read his exact expression, but they could all sense the dark, oppressive displeasure rolling off his downcast eyes.

Nova had provoked Yvette and called her a mistress to her face. Yvette hadn't shown up, which clearly meant Nova had hurt her severely.

Chuck made his stance clear. "Yvette saved my life, and she never asked for anything in return. I can't just ignore what happens to her. Nova insulted her, and Yvette is suffering. She has too much class to put you in a difficult spot, but I refuse to watch her get pointed at and called a 'mistress.' However, this is your personal business, and it's hard for me to intervene. So I'm only going to ask you one thing today: When are you getting a divorce?"

Tristan tossed the phone back to Kieran, his eyes dark and heavy. "What did you say to provoke her into saying all that?"

Kieran hadn't expected Tristan to ask that. His heart skipped a beat, but he absolutely didn't dare confess he had cursed the dead baby, fearing it would drag Yvette down.
