Divorced and Pregnant My New Life with a Billionaire Drives My Ex Crazy novel Chapter 850

Shaking her head frantically, she just wanted to escape this suffocating vortex.

"No..." she choked out, trying desperately to steady her breathing. "I don't want to acknowledge them. Please get me out of here!"

Clutching Kyle's sleeve like a lifeline, Sophie wept. Kyle's expression was grim and unreadable, making it impossible to tell whether he was angry or indifferent. Yet, he effortlessly carved out a small sanctuary in her world of despair, guiding her away from the thoroughly tainted banquet hall.

Wiona and Conrad exchanged a meaningful glance.

It was strange. At first, Kyle had definitely been watching Sophie's predicament with absolute coldness! When Arthur first questioned her identity, Kyle had stood there with his arms crossed, watching the show like an unfazed spectator. When the younger generation started harassing her and pushed her to the floor, he had actually taken a step back!

Wiona had been secretly shocked by the icy indifference in his eyes. In that moment, she was absolutely certain that Kyle's engagement to Sophie had nothing to do with genuine affection. She even suspected that if Sophie had been trampled to death right there, he wouldn't have lifted a finger to intervene.

But everything shifted in a single instant.

Kyle had received a phone call. When he answered, a microscopic change had flickered across his face. A chilling darkness seemed to seep from the deepest depths of his eyes. Despite the roaring chaos of the banquet hall, Wiona clearly felt the anger leaking from his demeanor. It was as if he had walled off the noise around him. His emotions had nothing to do with the farce playing out in the room or anyone present. He seemed trapped in an entirely different, hidden vortex of his own. But in the end, he swallowed his anger. Wiona saw his lips part slightly as he answered with a single word.

He said, "Okay."

Okay? What had he promised the person on the other end of the line?

Wiona was consumed by confusion, but as she watched Kyle lead Sophie away, the pieces slowly began to align in her mind, forming a troubling picture.
