The Coldest Man in the Room Melted Only for Me novel Chapter 110

"Riley..."

Pierce tried to speak, but Riley didn't give him the chance, swiftly following Arthur into the villa.

Since Arthur had given the order, Pierce had to go inside. Besides, Riley had already laid the divorce out in the open; avoiding it wouldn't work anymore.

Beatrice walked up to Pierce, her face full of confusion. "What is Riley talking about? Was there some hidden reason behind her hemorrhage?"

Pierce was far too agitated to answer questions. He quickened his pace and hurried inside.

Before this, he had assumed Riley's demand for a divorce was purely an impulsive, emotional reaction to discovering his affair with Seraphina—a temporary fit of rage.

But now that she had announced it in front of the entire family with such unyielding resolve, a deep sense of dread settled in his chest.

Was she genuinely determined to divorce him?

No. That was impossible.

They had been in love for years. How could she just throw it all away so easily?

Besides, they had Lory. Lory was barely two months old. Riley cherished their daughter more than anything, and there was no way she would let her grow up in a broken home.

Clinging to that logic, Pierce's panicked heart settled slightly.

In the living room, Arthur sat on the sofa and looked at Riley, who was standing in front of the coffee table. "What is this truth? Speak."

"Grandpa..."

"Let her speak!" Arthur barked, cutting Pierce off. His eyes radiated the suffocating authority of a patriarch.

Riley looked at Arthur calmly, but her words struck like a bombshell. "Pierce cheated on me."

"What nonsense are you spewing? How could Pierce possibly—"

Arthur slammed his cane hard against the floor. Beatrice's shrill, angry voice instantly died in her throat. His shrewd eyes swept over Pierce's darkened expression before returning to Riley. "Continue."
