After Divorce, I Became A Queen novel Chapter 263

Chapter 263 Clues Discovered

Nevaeh looked at the man thoughtfully, not wanting to continue the conversation. She got up and went to help Maisy in the kitchen.

The two of them plotted together in the kitchen, making sure everything was going smoothly before walking out together.

"Come on, wash your hands and let's eat," Maisy said as she looked at her excellent son with joy. She had been waiting for so long and after today, she was hopeful that she would finally be able to have a grandchild.

Sion glanced at his mother and felt like her behaviour was a bit strange today. He didn't say anything but casually got up from his seat and sat down at the table, picking at his food.

What he didn't notice was that while he was lost in thought, Maisy exchanged a glance with Nevaeh.

Throughout dinner, only Maisy and Nevaeh spoke occasionally while Sion remained silent. His heavy heart could be seen on his cold face.

Maisy watched him all day being preoccupied with other people's children. What kind of business is that? It would be better if he made one himself.

She turned her gaze towards Nevaeh and said, "Nevaeh dear! You've worked hard cooking. After you finish eating go rest with Sion in the living room for a chat. I'll take out the trash."

She couldn't help but chuckle inwardly; once she left they wouldn't come back inside again - it's up to Nevaeh now!

Nevaeh instantly understood what was happening and replied gently, "Maisy, thank you."

Maisy smiled approvingly as she quickly washed dishes before taking out the trash bag ready to leave. Sion followed behind her towards the door saying, "Perfect timing. Let's go together, I'll take you home after we throw this away."

Since he already knew what he wanted to know, there wasn't any need for him to stay any longer than necessary.

Suddenly Nevaeh swayed slightly as if she was about to faint.

"Oh my goodness!" exclaimed Maisy, whose expression changed immediately, pushing Sion forward and saying, "Something isn't right with Nevaeh? Quickly bring her into the living room!"

Seeing how Nevaeh reacted made Maisy proud of herself for choosing such an intelligent daughter-in-law, who could pretend to faint, knowing full well that there was no way Sion, as a doctor, would ignore it.

Maisy pushed Sion into the room, her tone becoming slightly forceful towards the end. Seeing her son's unhappy expression, she softened her voice and said, "You and Nevaeh are friends. Taking care of her a little bit isn't too much to ask, is it?"

Sion's forehead furrowed as he slowly felt his temper rising. He turned his head to look at Nevaeh.

She was pale and clutching at her chest as if struggling for breath.

"Go ahead," Maisy said before walking out and closing the door behind her without regard for Sion's expression.

"Sion..."

Nevaeh reached out a hand to grab onto his arm as if she were about to faint any moment now.

Sion sighed helplessly as unnamed anger surged within him. He tried not to show it though, helping Nevaeh back onto the couch before pouring a glass of water from the table beside them. As a doctor by profession, he asked inquiringly, "Where do you feel uncomfortable?"

"I think I'm just anaemic." Nevaeh gasped twice before finishing off the water in one go, and he continued, "I'm feeling better now."

Sion took hold of the glass from her hand with ease while saying casually, "Let me take you to the hospital."
