Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire novel Chapter 239

In the VIP hospital room, Margot lay on the bed looking pale as ever. When she finally stirred awake, catching sight of the handsome man by her side, her heart practically melted.

“Everett, how long have you been here? Why didn’t you wake me?” she asked, her voice soft and a bit frail from being unwell.

Everett was perched on the sofa, busy with his laptop. He looked her way as she spoke, “Oh, you’re awake. Feeling any better?”

“Yes, seeing you always makes me feel better. Even the baby seems to miss you; it calms down when you’re here.”

Margot’s eyes were full of warmth as she gently caressed her slightly rounded belly. She went on, “Everett, do you want to come say hi?”

Everett set his laptop aside, maintaining a calm demeanor as if he hadn’t heard her invitation. “You’re alright now, so just rest. I have to head out,” he said, rising and slipping on his jacket.

Margot wasn’t about to let him leave so easily, especially knowing he’d taken Selena to try on wedding dresses today. He was probably rushing off to pick her up.

She had noticed Everett was getting increasingly attached to Selena. After three years of marriage without a wedding, now they were planning one! If that happened, Selena’s status would be official, making Margot’s hope for their divorce even dimmer.

Today, there was no way she’d let him walk out.

Thunder suddenly boomed outside, the sound so loud it was almost terrifying. Margot clutched her belly, groaning in pain, “Everett, my stomach hurts again... it’s really painful…”

Everett’s brow furrowed, “I’ll get the doctor to check on you.” He walked to the bed, leaning down slightly to hit the call button.
