What She Overheard in Her Own Marriage novel Chapter 464

Finnian's heart jolted violently, like a minor earthquake had struck within him. For a moment, he was completely speechless.

"Noelle, why are you saying all this?" Finnian's voice deepened with warning. "Don't forget your place. Never say things like this again."

Noelle's tears fell onto the desk, one drop, two drops, blooming across the polished wood.

She had finally mustered all her courage to confront her true feelings.

But the moment she spoke them aloud, he gave her his definitive answer.

"I understand." Her voice was faint, entirely devoid of weight. "You don't need to say anything else. I know what my place is."

With that, she turned and took slow, measured steps toward the door. But just as she neared the exit, her legs gave out. She involuntarily leaned against the wall, desperately trying to maintain whatever pitiful shred of pride and dignity she had left.

"Noelle!" Seeing her like this, Finnian's voice called out from behind her.

Noelle cast a sorrowful, resentful glance back at him before forcing herself to walk out of the office.

Finnian stood rooted to the spot, staring at the closed door. The calm lake of his mind had been churned into a raging storm. That look Noelle just gave him—was it love?

Finnian felt deeply bewildered. Suddenly, a thought struck him. Perhaps it was time he finally uncovered the truth behind a certain matter.

That evening, Finnian went to the main estate for dinner. When Josephine saw him arrive, she peered behind him and asked, "Where's Brynlee? Why didn't you bring her?"

"She's with Kaia," Finnian replied.

Josephine noticed that her grandson seemed to be in low spirits. She figured Kaia's insistence on a divorce had dealt him a heavy blow.
