The Betrayed Heiress Is Now the CEO’s Obsession novel Chapter 352

Chapter 352

Sean’s eyes were deep and unreadable. His voice was low and tense.

“Lottie, you really don’t understand men. The way Scott looks at you–he’s not even trying to hide it. You seriously can’t see how he feels about you?”

Charlotte suddenly let out a short laugh.

She turned to him, her expression filled with disbelief–like she couldn’t understand where this was even coming from.

With biting sarcasm, she shot back, “Yeah, I guess I don’t understand men. That’s why I believed my ex when he told me, ‘As long as you don’t bring up breaking up, I’ll never leave you.‘

“Funny. Because when we finally broke up, he laughed in my face and said, ‘You actually believed that? That’s the kind of line you feed a kid.“”

Sean froze.

“Wait… weren’t we talking about Scott? How did this suddenly turn into a conversation about me?” he thought.

But he knew.

Those were his words.

He had said that to her during the breakup.

He knew how much it had hurt her.

And honestly, it hadn’t been any easier for him. Saying those cruel things had felt like a knife to his own chest.

His eyes darkened as guilt and regret flooded in. The jealousy that had been burning inside him just seconds ago vanished completely, replaced by a heavy, aching helplessness.

Sean lowered his gaze, grief written all over his face. His voice was low and heavy.

“Lottie, I had my reasons when I said those things. None of it was what I truly meant.”

Charlotte let out a cold laugh.

“Oh? Which part? The part where you said, ‘As long as you don’t bring up breaking up, I’ll never leave you‘? That wasn’t from the heart either? Don’t bother repeating it. I already know.”

“No,” Sean stepped forward, suddenly agitated. He placed both hands on her shoulders.

“You know that’s not the part I meant. Lottie, you’re the only one I’ve ever loved. My feelings for you–they’ve never changed.”

“That’s enough,” Charlotte said sharply, her eyes cold.

“Saying all this now doesn’t change anything. I have things to do. Excuse me.”

With that, she turned and opened her car door.

“Lottie, please–just listen-” Sean reached out to stop her.

Clicking his tongue in mock sympathy, he smirked.

Sean shot him a glare, sharp as ice.

Scott’s smile didn’t budge. His eyes narrowed slightly, still playful.
