A Second Chance with the CEO After Divorce

Chapter 144:

Cathy’s words drained the color from Belinda’s knuckles as she gripped the handrail.

She had been contemplating divorcing Kristopher for some time now, yet technically, they were still a couple, weren’t they?

However, Cathy was suggesting that they should keep their distance.

“Cathy!” Kristopher called out, his brow furrowing as he noticed her overstepping. “I promised Grandpa I’d look after her.”

“But must you hold her?” Cathy retorted, her eyes brimming with tears. She raised her voice, a note of accusation in her tone. “Kristopher, you’re just too nice. You’re blind to the manipulations some women are capable of! We’re in a hospital. You can easily hire a nurse or get a wheelchair. If she’s truly unwell, there are professional solutions available.

Heads turned, and whispers began to circulate.

“Yes, yes. I’ve been following their romance online. They’re absolutely adorable together!”
