Dark Revenge Of An Unwanted Wife: The Twins Are Not Yours!

Chapter 197: Ego

"Really, Athena, you just escaped by a hair’s breadth a couple of hours ago, and you are already trying to loop yourself into another trouble?" Aiden asked, stepping into the room, followed by Gianna, after Mary and Matthew had angrily stormed past them—they had been eavesdropping.

Gianna was nonplussed, to say the least.

Athena snorted softly and turned away from them, toward her children, who also wore expressions of surprise on their faces.

"You can’t blame me. They just had to don those stupid airs of theirs in front of my children," She finally said, swinging her legs out of the bed, testing their strength by tapping them softly on the floor.

Aiden shook his head. "You should have just ignored them."

Athena cursed and swivelled to face him, glaring at him hotly. "Why are you sounding like you don’t know what those two are? Why did you even let them treat me?"

Gianna immediately walked toward the twins and hugged them to herself. Together, the trio watched Athena’s sudden outburst of anger, and Aiden’s unflinching gaze, which spoke of a man not backing down from this particular fight.

"Be reasonable, Athena! So you would have preferred to be dead? You would have preferred to be disfigured by other doctors, or maybe die before your favorites arrive from their far places, just because you didn’t want to be touched by Matthew and Mary?"

"I would have lasted until my trusted range of doctors arrived! Why would you even listen to Ewan?" Athena retorted, not backing down either.

Aiden flung his hands in frustration. "You wouldn’t have lasted if those two hadn’t been here any sooner. The doctors of your Whitman Hospital had almost rejected treating you because of your state! Don’t you understand? If Ewan hadn’t pulled the strings he pulled—I don’t know how he did it really—you would have left your children as orphans! So, can you put aside your ego for once and listen!"
