CEO Broke Down and Cried After I Divorced Him novel Chapter 779

Hearing Suzy tell him to leave, Allen’s sharp brows immediately furrowed.

“Boss, you’re not seriously thinking about helping this brat detox, are you? Think this through—if you help him now, he’s just going to cling to you even more in the future!”

He once thought that maybe Suzy should just keep both Dylan and Elliot by her side, but…

After everything Elliot had done recently, Allen changed his mind.

A man could be stubborn, but not this stubborn.

Elliot’s persistence had turned into an obsession that was bound to lead to trouble sooner or later.

If Suzy did accept both Dylan and Elliot, things might seem fine at first.

But over time, the balance would tip.

They’d start comparing themselves to each other.

Who did she spend more time with today? Who would she be with tomorrow?

Eventually, resentment would build, and before long, Suzy would be living in a never-ending nightmare, especially with someone as obsessively fixated as Elliot.

Thinking about it now, his earlier suggestion had been completely idiotic.

He must’ve been out of his mind to even suggest something like that.

Thankfully, Suzy had always been rational and never took his words seriously.

If she were to go along with it, things would’ve already spiraled into chaos by now.

Actually, it wasn’t just rationality—Suzy never once had any romantic feelings for Elliot.

To her, their bond was purely that of a mentor and student.

In her eyes, Elliot was always nothing more than a child.

But given the circumstances, even if she didn’t see him that way, she wasn’t the type to just stand by and watch him die.

Since Suzy was likely to give in, Allen had to make sure she understood the consequences.

He couldn’t let her focus solely on saving Elliot without considering what would come after.

With that in mind, he added, “This stubborn brat just needs a good beating. Give him a proper thrashing, and he’ll snap out of it.”

Of course, Suzy already understood everything Allen was trying to say.

But she…

“Leave,” she said.

“Say that again?” Allen almost thought he was hearing things.

“Dylan, did you even hear what I just said? Your wife is about to sleep with another man, and you seriously don’t care?”

“I said, I respect her,” Dylan stated firmly, locking eyes with Allen and enunciating every word.

“Besides, what she’s doing isn’t betraying me—it’s saving a life.”

“Even if it’s to save someone, that’s not the way to do it!”

Allen was completely caught off guard by Dylan’s sudden generosity.

“Dylan, have you really thought this through? If Suzy actually ends up with Elliot, he’ll never let her go.

“He’ll be a part of your lives forever, interfering at every turn. Do you really want that?”

“She’s already made her choice. If I stop her, she’ll be unhappy.”

“She might be upset for a moment, but you’ll be unhappy for the rest of your life!”

Allen pressed on. “Think about it—do you really want to spend the rest of your days fighting Elliot for Suzy? Competing over who gets to have dinner with her and who gets to sleep next to her?

“Is that the life you want?”
