After She She Stopped Loving Him

Chapter 46

It was late at night, and Hugh was dragging his shattered leg down a filthy alley, every step a battle. The sharp click of high heels echoed behind him, making him freeze in place.

When he saw Yolanda step into the light, he gave a bitter twist of his lips. “Mrs. Sinclair, you were right. Mr. Sinclair really did let me live.”

Yolanda stood tall, her bag in hand, her back straight as a rod. “Dr. Thornton, you resent me. Sure, those rich wives forced your hand, but can you swear you still have a shred of compassion left as a doctor?”

Her words stabbed straight into Hugh’s heart. He stood there, dazed for several seconds, memories flooding back–how he’d once sworn to his mentor to always put saving lives first. But in the end, he’d let himself get swept up by money and power.

Since she had betrayed him once, she was facing a tough choice now: either she had to keep lying forever, or she needed to face the consequences.

She lowered her lashes, her heels clicking as she made her way forward. Once she got in her car, she headed to the hospital to check on William. He was doing much better.

Word was that Charles had been running all over the country, hunting for a kidney donor. Things were getting messy in the Sinclair family after the scandal, and his two uncles were already making moves. But none of that had anything to do with Yolanda.

A week later, Charles managed to find a kidney donor by throwing money around. After the surgery was done, he finally made it home.
