How to Destroy a Cheater Without Saying Goodbye novel Chapter 244

“Did Rebekah call you?”

Ablett was uneasy. “Let the driver take you, and take a couple of officers with you.”

“That won’t be necessary.”

Rebekah probably wanted to speak to her in private.

Blanche was stubborn, and Ablett couldn’t insist any further.

Still, as soon as Blanche drove off, an unmarked police car quietly followed her.

The café Rebekah had chosen was quiet and understated. Blanche sat across from her. The easy warmth of their first meeting was long gone.

Rebekah regarded her with a cold, scrutinizing gaze—more like an adversary than a sister-in-law. “What do you have that’s so special?” she demanded, confused and a little bitter. “Why can’t Eddy forget about you? Why is my brother so determined to marry you? You’re pretty, sure, and you seem nice enough, but I really don’t see what’s so remarkable about you.”

Blanche had no idea how to answer.

Rebekah’s voice trembled with frustration. “Do you even know? Eddy nearly died looking for you. He thought you’d been kidnapped, stabbed, hit by a car while trying to shield your precious head—and then he almost got blown to pieces by a missile. His health is wrecked because of you. His heart, his lungs, his liver—everything’s taken a hit because he wouldn’t give up on you.”

“To him, you’re more important than his own life.” Rebekah’s voice faltered, thick with emotion. “Will you really never give him another chance?”

She didn’t know what kind of answer she wanted. She felt angry for Eddy’s sake, yet terrified that Blanche might change her mind—because if Blanche ever did, Eddy would drop everything and whisk her away from her brother, no matter the cost.

“I’m your brother’s wife, Rebekah,” Blanche said quietly, refusing to look back, only forward.

Even after hearing that, Rebekah couldn’t relax. How could she? If there were a man willing to risk his life for her, she wouldn’t let him suffer like this. As long as Eddy refused to let go, Rebekah was haunted by the fear that Blanche would eventually look back.

Anxious and helpless, she could only say, “My brother loves you—he really does. I’ve never seen him care about anyone this much. You’re the first.”
