Divorce Failed My Wife's Secret Identities Shock the World novel Chapter 323

Maeve grabbed Andres by the collar, her eyes hard and fierce.

"You may as well have announced to them, loud and clear, ‘Yeah, I know you're setting me up. I just want to see how you're going to play it.'"

"There's a reason every old field manual says the same thing—underestimating your enemy is how you get people killed."

"They've got the nerve to stage this little performance right in front of you, and you think they didn't come prepared?"

Even Murray had to admit she had a point.

"Miss Vance, that's… actually brilliant. Yeah. That's exactly it."

And then, in the rearview mirror, Murray watched Mr. Andres shoot him a cold, murderous look.

Murray shut up instantly.

Andres hadn't minded humoring those clowns at first.

But after Anya's little stunt, he found the whole thing suddenly exhausting.

"When it comes to feelings, I don't do lies."

If he liked someone, he liked them. If he didn't, he didn't.

He wasn't going to toy with some woman's emotions—pulling her close, pushing her away—just to reach a goal.

And Anya's suggestion wasn't just disgusting. It was ridiculous.

A "wife at home" and a "harem on the side"—that warped idea of marriage and loyalty didn't impress him. It made him feel nothing but contempt. Cheap. Pathetic.

"Anya. Natalia. Or Landon Hart, hiding in the shadows and stirring the pot."

"Crushing them would be as easy as crushing ants."

Over the years, Andres had wiped out more hostile operations than he could count.

If he had the time to act in their little play, he might as well erase them—clean and simple.

Maeve's voice cut in. "Do you know who's behind Landon?"

On the surface, Andres and Landon still wore the mask of friendship—civil smiles, polite peace.

Underneath, they were already at war.

When money and power were on the table, enemies could become allies, and friends could become enemies.

Andres could guess why Landon had turned on him.
