Breaking Free from the Ex-Husband novel Chapter 69

Chapter69

Heriberto heard that, his face visibly darkened, his deep eyes becoming sharper and colder.

Melanie had never seen him like this, a little scared, but still mustered up the courage to ask, “Heri, is Iris divorcing you because of me? If so, I can go explain to Iris.”

“It’s none of your business.”

Heriberto put away his phone and asked in a low voice as he walked out, “You came to see me,

what’s up?”

Melanie followed him out and said weakly, “Heri, my concert is tomorrow. I saved you the best seat. Will you come?”

Heriberto sat down at his desk, turned on the computer, and without looking up, he said, “Hmm,” and then added, “It’s late, you should go home.”

Melanie followed him to his desk, leaned against one corner of desk, and eagerly said, “Heri, everyone has left work, you’re all alone in the office with no one to take care of you. Why don’t I stay and keep you company?”

“No need,” Heriberto replied without even looking up.

“I won’t bother you, I’ll just sleep on the office sofa tonight,” Melanie said anxiously.

Heriberto finally looked up, raised his eyelids and glanced at her.

His eyes were deep and calm, yet cold and indifferent.

Melanie looked up at him, feeling a bit nervous.

“Did you ask people to take those photos on the trending topic? Did you also ask people to write those contents?” Heriberto suddenly asked.

Melanie heard this, widened her eyes in fear, and was about to explain when she heard Heriberto say, “There won’t be a next time, or else I’ll have someone cut off all your expenses.”

“I’m sorry, Heri…..”

Melanie said, tears welling up in her eyes, her voice soft and full of grievance, “I…I didn’t mean anything by it, I just wanted to create some buzz for my recital.”

Heriberto furrowed his brows, glanced down at the computer screen, and said quietly, “You go back, I will attend the concert tomorrow on time.”

“Okay.”

At that time, even though Melanie was reluctant, she had to obediently listen.

She wiped away the tears and said gently, “You should rest early, I’m leaving.”

Heriberto didn’t pay attention to her anymore.

Melanie waited for a few seconds, but he didn’t respond at all, so she finally turned around and left with a heavy heart.

She didn’t have a miscarriage, her baby is fine.

After lying in bed for a while, Iris grabbed the remote and opened the curtains.

The sky was starting to brighten up, but it was still gloomy.

Last night there was a heavy rain, looks like it’s gonna continue today.

Although it was still early, Iris was already wide awake and decided to get out of bed to freshen up.

When she went downstairs, the chef was already preparing breakfast in the kitchen.

Iris hadn’t been in the kitchen for a while, then suddenly she felt like cooking something she liked to eat.
