Unmasked My CEO Ex-Husband’s Regret novel Chapter 159

Elara spoke those words very slowly, emphasizing nearly every syllable, just to observe his reaction.

Julian seemed to sense her motive. Keeping his eyes glued to the road, he didn't shift his gaze in her direction once.

However, Elara refused to let him off the hook. "Yet you don't even have the courage to listen to me properly, answer my questions, and resolve the problem. You just blindly insist I'm being unreasonable to divert my attention and stop me from suspecting you further, don't you?"

"..."

She had hit the nail on the head.

But Julian wasn't a green, teenage boy who would instantly show his true colors at the slightest scare.

He tightened his grip on the steering wheel and took a deep breath. When he spoke again, there wasn't a trace of impatience left—only the helpless tone of a man in the honeymoon phase dealing with a girlfriend. "Look at how much you like to overthink. I just let a female client sit in the passenger seat for a bit, and you conjure up all these wild scenarios. I wouldn't be able to explain myself even if I had ten mouths."

Elara didn't buy a single word of it. "Oh, so now it's my fault?"

"...Could you please let me finish first?"

Elara didn't respond, but she didn't interrupt again either.

Julian continued, "Forgetting my promise and letting a female client you don't know sit in your seat was my mistake. I apologize."

"You're only apologizing for that?"

"...Calling you unreasonable was also wrong of me. I'm sorry."

Elara scoffed coldly. "So you admit it's your fault?"

"..."

Julian regretted admitting his mistake and apologizing.

Had she always been this irrational and relentless?
