The one thing she had desperately begged and fought for was nothing more than a cheap bargaining chip he used to coax her.

It didn't suit her?

What he really meant was that she wasn't worthy of it!

A suffocating wave of despair washed over her, making her chest physically ache. But really, shouldn't she be entirely used to this by now?

"Why did I ever expect anything from you?" she murmured softly to herself.

In that moment, Claire looked as fragile as spun glass, as though the slightest touch would shatter her completely.

Wilbur looked at her, his voice tight with concern. "Are you okay?"

"I'm just tired," she breathed.

"I'll take you back to your hotel."

Claire didn't object.

She just wanted to escape this place as fast as she could.

She didn't want to spend another single second in Felix's presence!

Wilbur gently guided Claire toward the exit.

Felix instinctively wanted to block their path.

After all, she was his wife.

But before a single word could leave his lips, Claire locked eyes with him, her gaze so chillingly calm it stopped him dead in his tracks.

He saw two unmistakable words carved into that hollow stare.

Absolute disappointment.

The words died in his throat. All he could do was stand there, utterly paralyzed, watching another man lead his wife away.

Felix was already blackout drunk.

Shawn Selwyn arrived late. By the time he walked into the private booth, Felix was barely coherent.

He looked at Evan Young and asked, "What happened here? Did he get into a fight with Madeline?"

Evan shook his head.

"Then who else could possibly push him to the edge like this?" Shawn asked, genuinely baffled.

Evan dropped a truth bomb that left Shawn's jaw on the floor. "His wife. Claire."

Shawn scoffed, completely doubting the claim. "You've got to be kidding me."

"That was exactly my reaction when I found out," Evan muttered.

Shawn was about to ask for details when Felix, slurring heavily, suddenly started yelling at the ceiling. "Claire, why won't you just come home with me?!"
