Unmasked My CEO Ex-Husband’s Regret novel Chapter 373

Even if Vivian had never existed, he would have found someone else to sleep with.

Vivian was just in the right place at the right time, slipping perfectly into the role of Julian's convenient excuse to abandon his family.

Once a man stopped loving you, no amount of effort could drag him back.

If she had fought and 'won' against Vivian, what was stopping him from finding a third or fourth mistress down the line?

Absolutely nothing.

Julian's heart wasn't in it anymore. He didn't want the burden of a wife and child, and even without this affair, their marriage would have imploded eventually.

Maybe they would have just fought over something trivial, and he would have claimed he was too exhausted to keep going.

Or maybe he would have caught feelings for a different woman entirely.

In the end, falling for someone else was just Julian's cowardly way of escaping his responsibilities.

Furthermore, Elara seriously doubted his involvement with Vivian was rooted in pure, untainted love.

If he had chased after a woman with no background—someone just as ordinary as Elara—would Meredith Beckett be fawning all over her right now?

Meredith would have likely made the girl disappear before Elara even found out about the affair.

After all, if the other woman brought nothing to the table, Elara still held the ultimate trump card—she was the savior of Sebastian Vance.

While she couldn't directly bankroll Julian's corporate ambitions, she had a direct line to Sebastian, the current head of the Vance family. And by extension, Maddox Beckett always showed her special favor because of his grandson.

If Julian had traded her in for a nobody, Maddox wouldn't have given them the time of day. And as for the Vance family, who knew if they'd ever have an opening again?

Sebastian was a fiercely unpredictable man who held deadly grudges. Who was to say he wouldn't destroy Julian out of loyalty to her?
