Goodbye My Arrogant Ex novel Chapter 60

“When we went out earlier, I was planning to take your mother to the hospital with Maggie. With so many people there, I was worried I wouldn’t be able to handle everything by myself.”

“But then I saw Maggie meeting a man for dinner—in a five-star restaurant, no less. I have no idea what she’s been up to lately. Has she said anything to you?”

For weeks, Fiona had been secretly having people follow Marguerite. She kept tabs on her every move.

Her words landed like needles in Benjamin’s heart, sharp and relentless. He snapped.

Here he was, working himself to the bone every day, trying to save the company as it teetered on the edge, and she was out dining with some strange man?

He slammed his fist on the table. “Shameless!”

“I only saw them go in together. I don’t really know what happened after that. Maybe it’s all a misunderstanding. Don’t get yourself too worked up.”

Mrs. Foster, lying in bed, shot upright at their voices, her heart pounding painfully in her chest. She couldn’t accept what she was hearing.

“Mom, please, just stay in bed and rest. I’ll handle all of this. You don’t have to worry.”

“How can I not worry? Your wife is about to run off with someone else! You know how I’ve always treated Marguerite—like my own daughter. How could she do this to us?”

Mrs. Foster was shaking, her entire body trembling with anger and heartbreak.

Despite everything that had happened, in her heart, Marguerite was still her daughter-in-law.
