Whats She Overheard in Her Own Marriage novel Chapter 362

He hadn’t expected her to resort to physical force just because she was losing an argument.

“Kaia, you brought Brynlee all the way to Switzerland just to go on a date with him, didn’t you? If it’s the truth, why not just admit it?” Finnian was inexplicably furious. He felt she had zero respect for him; they weren’t even divorced yet, and she was already rushing out to make him look like a fool.

Listening to his twisted logic, a suffocating wave of anger lodged in Kaia’s chest.

She glared at him with pure venom.

Finnian returned her look with an impassive expression. “Noelle and I do not have the kind of relationship you think we do. We are completely nnocent. I’d appreciate it if you stopped letting your imagination run wild…”

‘Is that so? Innocent enough that the two of you had to sneak off to the third floor during your brother’s memorial to make out? If there hadn’t been so many guests that day, you probably would have gotten her pregnant on the spot.” Kaia could no longer stomach his excuses. She had intended to take that secret to her grave, wanting to spare them whatever dignity they had left.

But Finnian’s blatant hypocrisy pushed her over the edge, forcing the ugly truth out into the open.

Finnian recoiled as if he’d been struck. His eyes widened in absolute shock.

“I heard it with my own ears. Don’t even try to tell me Noelle deepfaked an audio recording just to mess with my head,” Kaia mocked coldly.

Finnian’s jaw clenched. He opened his mouth, but the words died in his

Kaia didn’t want to get into a screaming match in front of Brynlee, so she kept her voice dangerously calm. “Since you missed your daughter so much, take her out to dinner. Celine and I have plans.”

“Alright,” Finnian agreed, then turned to Brynlee. “Let’s go grab some dinner, okay? Your mom has been taking care of you all week. Let her go out and relax for a bit.”

‘Okay! But… Mommy, where are you and Auntie Celine going?” Brynlee asked curiously.

Celine immediately threw an arm around Kaia’s shoulders and gave a wicked grin. “Oh, don’t you worry about that. I’ve got a whole itinerary planned out. I guarantee your mom is going to have the time of her life.”

Brynlee blinked innocently. “Auntie Celine, you’re not taking my mom to watch handsome guys dance again, are you?”

At those words, Finnian’s expression instantly darkened into a scowl.

He knew it. Celine was wild, and if Kaja kept hanging around her, she was going to be completely corrupted.

‘Don’t worry, sweetie, no dancing guys tonight,” Celine promised with a smirk, glancing at Kaia.

Kaia turned to Brynlee. “Go on. Hurry up and get some dinner.”

As Finnian turned to leave, he shot Kaia a loaded look, his eyes heavy

with unspoken frustration.

Kaia saw it and completely ignored him.

Kaia and Celine took the hotel’s shuttle service down to Viaduct Harbour During the day, the marina was packed with luxury yachts, but at night, it took on a more peaceful, ambient vibe.

They picked a nice waterfront restaurant. The neighboring bars were open, spilling a lively crowd onto the streets.

clamping her hands over her ears. “I don’t want to hear another word.”

Seeing her shut him out, Finnian’s chest tightened. His voice grew so raspy he barely recognized it. “I’m sorry. I had no idea you were outside the door listening to all of that. If I had known… I would have explained everything to you immediately.”

Only now did it finally dawn on him why Kaia had aggressively fought to take control of the project the very next day, why she had relentlessly targeted Noelle, and why she had turned so freezing cold toward him. overnight.

It was all because she had overheard that disastrous conversation on the third floor.

‘Explain? If I hadn’t overheard it, you would have taken that secret to your grave. Now that you’re caught, you suddenly want to clear the air? You’re such a hypocrite,” she fired back mercilessly.

Finnian’s mouth opened, searching for a rebuttal, but his face burned and nis mind went entirely blank.

She was right. If she hadn’t caught them, he never would have breathed a word of it to anyone.

‘I’m sorry. Noelle really was drunk when she said those things. To be honest, I was shocked, too. I’ve always viewed her as a sister. I never expected her to…”

“Save it. I’m done listening to your garbage. I just want to know when you’re signing the divorce papers. The sooner, the better.” The alcohol was making Kaia’s head spin and her stomach churn. All she wanted was finality.

Watching her lose whatever patience she had left for him, a sudden wave of panic gripped Finnian’s heart.

It felt as if a vice had clamped down inside his chest.

Unwilling to wait for his answer, Kaia turned and marched toward her

room.

Suddenly, Finnian closed the distance and wrapped his arms tightly around her from behind. “Kaia, I’m so sorry. I didn’t realize this

misunderstanding had caused you so much pain, he murmured, his voice hoarse.

Kaia’s entire body went rigid.

He leaned down, resting his chin in the crook of her neck. “Kaia, do we really have to do this?”

She remained perfectly stiff.

‘Let go.”
