His Housewife Had Secret Identities novel Chapter 494

He’d changed.

He didn’t love Rina anymore.

All that was left for Rina was a tangle of guilt, pity—

—and disappointment.

Marina’s tear-soaked eyes caught the unyielding resolve deep within Jonathan. To her, that resolve was nothing short of cruelty.

It felt as if her entire world was collapsing around her.

Her knees buckled, and with a dull thud, she crumpled to the floor.

Jonathan’s fingers twitched, but he didn’t help her up.

He walked right past, ignoring Marina kneeling on the carpet, and picked up the office phone to call Prescott.

“Mr. Thomas, how can I assist you?”

Prescott entered the office and immediately took in the sight of Marina on her knees.

He didn’t ask unnecessary questions.

He didn’t offer needless comfort.

With his back to both Prescott and Marina, Jonathan stood tall and imposing, like a glacier that refused to melt.

“Show her out.”

Four short words. With them, he severed every last thread of hope Marina had been clinging to.

Marina broke down, sobbing uncontrollably.

“This way, Ms. Thornton…”

Prescott gently but firmly led her out.

Now, only Jonathan remained in the executive office.

He lit a cigarette, drawing in the smoke in silence.

He couldn’t understand how he could be so heartless to his Rina. Even if love had faded, surely he owed her the friendship forged through shared hardship.

“Is it… because of Niamh?”
