Chapter 2My Wife Cheated With My Best Friend

Chloe's merciless words stabbed into my heart like ice-cold knives.

"Lose his mind? If he dares to make a scene, I'll divorce him on the spot."

"Believe it or not, even if I sat on Austins lap right now, he wouldn't dare say a word."

"Hed probably make excuses for me, saying I drank too much and accidentally fell into Austins arms."

"To put it bluntly, even if I slept with Austin right in front of his face, hed still find a way to forgive us."

Someone jeered, "No way, could a man really be that pathetic?"

Chloe sneered, "Don't believe me?"

"Lets make a bet. Ill kiss Austin right in front of him. Lets see how he reacts."

The atmosphere in the VIP room grew wilder.

People began placing bets.

"I bet fifty thousand."

"One hundred thousand from me."

Chloe shouted loudly, "I bet Ethan won't dare to utter a single sound tonight."

"I bet hell storm out."

"I bet hell actually fight. No real man could take this."

"What if he just swallows his pride?"

The crowd laughed hysterically.

The bets kept going up.

They treated me like the biggest joke of the night.

"Hey, why isn't Ethan here yet?"

Someone checked their watch.

"How long has it been?"

"Is he hiding behind the door, too scared to come in?"

"I'll go check."

A guy, completely drunk, stood up to walk toward the door.

"Don't worry,"

Austin suddenly spoke.

"Today is Chloe's birthday."

"There's no way Ethan wouldn't show up."

"Hes probably just stuck in traffic."

The person next to him laughed immediately.

"Austin, you really do know him best."

"He can't bear to lose sight of Chloe for even a minute."

Another guy smirked.

"Maybe he got distracted by some pretty girl on the street?"

Laughter erupted in the room again.

Chloe leaned back on the sofa, slowly swirling her wine glass.

"Him?"

She let out a soft scoff.

"He can't live without me."

"After all these years, don't you guys know what kind of man he is?"

"He has eyes for no one but me."

"Forget about some girl."

"Even if a woman stripped naked in front of him, he wouldn't dare to look."

So she knew exactly how much I loved her, yet she used my love as a cheap joke.

In the next second, she sat directly onto Austins lap and wrapped her arms around his neck.

"I can't let your bets go to waste. Watch closely!"

As soon as she finished speaking,

she leaned down and kissed Austin deeply on the lips.

The room instantly went wild.

"Oh, damn! Keep that pose, don't move!"

Someone yelled in excitement.

"Lets wait for Ethan to walk in just like this!"

"We have to see his face!"

"Hahaha!"

"I can't wait to see him play the coward!"

They laughed like maniacs.

And I stood outside, separated only by a door, my fists clenched so hard my knuckles turned white.

Chloe.

Austin.

I hope you can still laugh like this in a few minutes.

I looked down at my phone.

The screen lit up with a Snapchat from Victoria.

[Tell me the room number. Im almost there.]

A cold smile crept onto my lips.

Victoria Sinclair was on her way.

And I had heard enough.

Everything I should and shouldn't know, I knew now.

If I didn't go in, wouldn't I be ruining their show?

Since they wanted to see my reaction so badly, I would give them exactly what they expected.

I pushed the door open, and the noise instantly stopped.

Every single eye in the room turned to me.

Chloe was still sitting on Austins lap. Her smile froze for a split second, but she quickly recovered.

Some people were holding back their laughter, waiting for the drama to unfold.

I looked at Chloe, then at Austin.

I feigned a confused, worried expression.

"Chloe, did you drink too much?"

"How could you mistake Austin for your own husband?"
