His Housewife Had Secret Identities novel Chapter 496

Niamh finished speaking, her tone calm, then rose from her chair.

“If you came here just to tell me this…”

She pressed the button on her desk phone. “Ms. Lawson, can you come in and show Mr. Thomas out—”

Before she could finish, Jonathan abruptly hung up the phone.

She shot him a sharp, annoyed glare. Jonathan’s face was tense, his brow furrowed in a storm of conflicting emotions.

What Niamh had just done to him—he’d done the same to Marina earlier that day.

A dull ache flared in his stomach.

“I don’t love Marina anymore…”

Niamh’s eyes flickered up at him.

“I admit it…I’ve changed,” he said, forcing out the last words, his jaw clenched so tightly the syllables were almost bitten off.

He stared straight at her as he spoke, his dark eyes fathomless and dangerous—like a bog ready to pull you under.

Niamh didn’t look away.

Her large, blue eyes were usually clear as a lake, but his words sent ripples across their surface.

Jonathan knew perfectly well—

As long as he didn’t choose Marina, Niamh would fall right back into his arms.

He remembered with painful clarity just how much she had loved him.

Back when they were dating, he’d always show up late to their dates—at least an hour late every time. Niamh never complained, never even mentioned it, just waited patiently for him.

She was allergic to pollen but never told him, because she loved the flowers he brought her.

Whatever he asked her to wear, she wore without a word.

She styled her hair and did her makeup exactly how he liked.

She let him pick the restaurant, the movie, every time.

After they got married, she washed his clothes and cooked his meals without a single complaint.

In bed, she let him have his way, never refusing anything he wanted.

Jonathan was certain—reconciliation, a second chance—that’s what Niamh had always dreamed of.
