13:24 Thu , Oct 2 Chapter 49 Chapter 49 F:. Ian pulled up to the apartment building where the Irvine family lived , He texted Chloe , asking her to come downstairs . As he waited , lan felt restless , unable to calm down . He kept scrolling through his phone . After a few minutes with no reply , lan got out of the car . 12 55 vouchers Frank and Jill had just finished a call with Chloe and were about to go to bed when they heard a knock . Seeing lan , they darkened their faces . Frank blocked the doorway . " Ian , what brings you here so late ? " Ian glanced toward the living room . " Frank , Jill , I'm here to talk to Chloe about something . " Frank and Jill exchanged glances . Jill said , " Chloe is studying overseas . She's not at home ." Ian's face fell . " Jill , when did this happen ? " He thought , ' I can't believe my own wife went abroad without telling me . ' He felt a mix of disbelief and frustration . Jill tugged on Frank's arm , stepping aside to let Ian in , and then went to pour him a glass of water . Frank's voice had an unfamiliar edge . " Ian , you haven't visited in ages . And since Chloe isn't around , there's something Jill and I have wanted to say to you for a while ." Ian sat down across from them , keeping his tone respectful . " Frank , Jill just say it . No need to hold back ." Frank sighed , " lan , you've always been a good kid . The Irvine family owes you a lot , and we remember everything you've done for us . " Then his tone changed . " But we spoiled Chloe too much . She's moody , dramatic , and high maintenance . She's not a good match for you . Now that you've found someone new and even have a child , Chloe shouldn't get in the way of your life anymore . Let's just end this . You should divorce Chloe . " Ian's expression froze , his face awkward . He tugged at the corner of his mouth , trying to explain . " Frank , Jill , there are things I can't tell you , but I've never once thought about divorcing Chloe ." He got up . " Please don't get involved in our marriage . Let us work it out between ourselves . " 13:24 Thu , Oct 2 Chapter 49 220 da vouchers Jill , felt sorry for Chloe , said sharply , " Tan , a real man keeps his word . We managed to gather the 300 million you wanted . Chloe's had feelings for you since she was a kid . Can you please stop putting her through this ? Just end it and get the divorce ." Ian ignored her plea and pressed on , " Mom , just tell me which country Chloe went to . Where is she living now ? " Jill stood up and deliberately turned her back on Jan , her voice unwavering , ' Chloe has finally stopped crying I won't let you hurt her again . " Frank got up to open the door . " We've said our piece . Take some time , think it over , and get the divorce papers signed with Chloe as soon as you can ." Though heartbroken for Chloe and furious with Ian for betraying her , Jill and Frank kept their dignity and restraint , refraining from any harsh words . Ian stood up and glanced at Jill , who still had her back to him . He hesitated for a moment , and then walked straight to the door. Stopping in front of Frank , Ian said , " Frank , Jill , I'm not going to divorce Chloe . " With that , Ian walked out , the door closing firmly behind him . Ian just stood there at the door , dazed , unable to bring himself to leave . As far back as he could remember , every time he visited , Frank and Jill would bustle around , making him feel at home . They'd always treated him like their own son . Even when they couldn't help much when things went wrong , that never stopped them from worrying about him . Even back when he and Chloe were on the brink of divorce , Frank and Jill would still cook for him and check in to see how his work was going . But now , for the first time , he could feel them shutting him out , cold and distant . Jan got into his car , frustration seething in his chest . Without hesitation , he called Mitchell . " Mitchell , I need you to look into Chloe's schedule over the past few days while I was away . Find out where she's been and where she is now ." Late at night , in a private booth on the third floor of the Royal Court Club , Patrick found lan passed out on the couch . He checked if fan was still breathing , but fan brushed his hand away . Seeing that , Patrick finally relaxed and sat down opposite him . Ian sat up , pressing his fingers to his temples , looking utterly exhausted . Patrick dropped his usual cool demeanor . " I checked your place before coming here . Andrea and Clint are gone . Seriously , you look terrible . Go home and get some sleep . We'll sort everything out tomorrow . Chloe's 13:24 Thu , Oct 2 Chapter 49 just gone overseas , not disappeared off the face of the earth ." Ian didn't say a word . He just poured himself another drink . 63 55 vouchers Patrick couldn't hold it in anymore . " lan , Chloe sold her mom's heirloom jewelry , redid your whole house , personally let Andrea and Clint move in , and she even handed over her wedding ring . What do you think all that means ? " Ian hung his head , feeling like he'd been punched in the gut , completely drained . Patrick pressed on , " She's not just upset , Ian . She really wants a divorce for real . " " She won't , " Ian insisted firmly . " She's just upset , " Ian said , shaking his head . " She let Andrea and Clint move into our place and gave Andrea the wedding ring on purpose . She's just trying to back me into a corner and make me choose ." Patrick just stared at Ian , like he couldn't believe what he was hearing . He was totally speechless and at a loss for words . In the middle of the night , Patrick made sure Ian got home safe . Ian stood in the entryway , staring at the slippers Andrea had laid out for him . He hesitated , and then just left them there . Patrick walked into the living room and took in all the creamy decor . He couldn't hold back his critique . " Ian , no offense , but Andrea's taste can't hold a candle to Chloe's . Your grandma might have liked this style if she were still around . " Ian gave Patrick a sharp look . " Don't tell Mia that Chloe went abroad . " Patrick's eyes widened . " Seriously ? You know Mia . Like I could ever hide something like that from her . " Ian said nothing . He just trudged upstairs , feeling like he was carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders . After his shower and a change into pajamas , lan went straight to the study . He collapsed onto the couch , where the coffee table held the three things Chloe had left behind : the divorce papers , a bank card , and her wedding ring . Those were the only things in the house that still connected lan to Chloe . Everything else had been burned . Not even a hair tie was left . Just then , Ian's phone buzzed . He answered . It was Mitchell . " Mr. Hamilton , Mrs. Hamilton left for Tecnovia the day before you came back . She took a job at the Jordan family's private hospital there . I've sent her address to your phone . " Ian frowned , " Tecnovia ? The Jordan family's hospital ? " 13:24 Thu , Oct 2 Chapter 49 E55 vouchers Mitchell replied , " Yeah , the Jordan family from Verdantville . She was referred by Eric , their third son .
