Divorce to Destiny: Reclaiming My CEO Husband by Anney GW

486 She’s Okay

(Cass)

I pace the estate office, Viktor's phone pressed tightly to my ear. Viktor leans against the desk, his arms crossed, the picture of calm professionalism.

"Yes," he says, and I let out a shaky breath. "The head wound is under control, the coma is to wait for the swelling and her blood pressure to go down. But she is going to get through this." "What about the baby?"

"No," he cuts me off sharply. "Just positive talk. She's strong. They both are."

His voice softens, and I realize how much he's struggling to hold it together. It's so unlike him to sound vulnerable.

"I'm coming home..."

"Wait, you can tell her. I'll put you on speaker. I need the bathroom anyway."

"Too much information, Jayden."
