Goodbye My Arrogant Ex novel Chapter 31

“Ben…”

Fiona’s voice, choked with tears, instantly threw Benjamin into a panic.

Ever since Fiona was nearly kidnapped last time, a shadow had lingered in his heart—he couldn’t shake the fear that something terrible would happen to her again.

“What happened? Don’t cry, okay? Where are you? I’ll be there right away!”

Between sobs, Fiona stammered, “I’m sorry, it’s all my fault… I accidentally let it slip to your mom about Maggie wanting to break up with you, and she fainted from the shock.”

She began weeping harder. “I didn’t mean to—I’ve already brought her to the hospital, but she’s still in the ER. I’m so scared… I don’t know what to do…”

“It’s not your fault. I’m coming now.”

Benjamin’s face darkened, anger swelling inside him until it was almost impossible to contain.

He turned on Marguerite. “My mother’s in the hospital because of you. Is that what you wanted?”

“Answer me!”

His eyes were bloodshot, wild—Marguerite instinctively took a step back, suddenly wary.

“What does that have to do with me?”

Marguerite frowned, struggling to keep her composure as Benjamin dumped all the blame on her without a second thought. It was almost laughable.

There was a time, she thought bitterly, when she actually believed this man would care for her, love her for a lifetime. What a fool she’d been—blind and hopelessly naïve.

“My mother has always treated you well, Marguerite! If you have even a shred of decency left, you’ll come to the hospital with me. Otherwise, I swear I’ll never forgive you!”

“You’re insane.”
