Divorcing my billionaire husband (Antonio and Grace) novel Chapter 15

Chapter 15

Jodie hit me with the shoe with great strength, and the shoe landed on my head accurately.

Besides, I was pregnant.

Trying my best to fight against the dizziness, I drove out of Stone Town; then I couldn’t take it anymore and finally passed

out.

It was already the next morning when I woke up.

It was raining heavily, and Stone Town behind me was already submerged. I could barely see a few roofs.

I took a photo and sent it to Antonio.

“The flood is here. I don’t know whether Jodie and Vernon are alive or not. Come back.”

Yet, he hadn’t replied even after a long time.

The water level kept rising at the same time.

I had to drive forward.

Soon, I ran into Lonnie. At the sight of me, he thanked me excitedly.

“You saved our lives. Without you, hundreds of people would have died last night…”

I interrupted him, “Mr. Potter, did Jodie and Vernon

evacuate?”

He was stunned. “They didn’t evacuate last night? I didn’t see them.”

Helpless, I sighed, “They wouldn’t believe me no matter what and even hit me with a shoe. I had to leave.”

He stomped his foot, furious.

“How could they be so stupid? And Antonio is equally infuriating! He said so firmly on the phone there wouldn’t be a flood. If anything happened to Jodie and Vernon, it’d be his fault!

“The rescue team will be here soon. We’ll go back together to find them.”

By the time the rescue team arrived, it was no longer raining. I took a rubber boat together with them and headed to

Antonio’s parents‘ place.

From afar, I saw a person sitting on the rooftop.

It was Jodie.

Upon seeing me, she burst into tears.

“Vernon got flooded away trying to save me.

“Grace, we were wrong. We should have listened to you last night and left with you…”

Her cries didn’t make me feel a thing. I said flatly, “Let’s go find Vernon.”

The team searched for an entire day, but Vernon was nowhere

I took out my phone and was about to call Antonio.

Just then, Yvonne sent me a video; she was enjoying fondue together with Antonio, who was feeding her chocolate.

I texted her, “Antonio’s dad is missing in the flood. His mom has been crying non–stop. Tell him to come back.”

Soon, Yvonne replied, “You’re sick, Grace.

“Antonio doesn’t love you at all. Drop the act already; you need help. Stop bothering us!”

I tried to send her the photos of the flood, only to see the notification that she had already blocked me.

Then I tried Antonio’s cell and heard the busy tone again. I texted him, but he still didn’t reply.

I had no choice but to give up.

After comforting Jodie for a while, I drove back downtown.

I rested for a night and got an abortion the next day.

A day later, Lonnie called me.

“Grace, we’ve found Vernon’s body. Jodie has been crying, and we can’t reach Antonio.

“You’re Jodie and Vernon’s future daughter–in–law. Could you come over to take care of Vernon’s funeral?”

I said flatly, “I broke up with Antonio already and am not obliged to do this. You should try to find a way to reach
