Forbidden Passion

Chapter 604 I Love You, Phoebe

Phoebe was coming down the stairs when she caught a bit of what Taylor was saying. She frowned, knowing that if she spilled the beans about who she really was now, divorcing Theodore would be a nightmare. She strolled into the living room.

Taylor lit up when she saw Phoebe and waved her over. "Phoebe, come sit with me. I wanna get a good look at you."

Phoebe plopped down next to Taylor.

Taylor grabbed her hand, giving her the once-over. "You look way better than when you were in the hospital. These past few days must've been rough, huh?" Phoebe looked down and shook her head slightly. "Not too bad."

"Are the wounds on your back healed?" Taylor's eyes were full of concern. She'd seen the nurse change Phoebe's bandages in the hospital, and her bloody back was a sight that made anyone's heart ache. "Yeah," Phoebe replied.

"That's good," Taylor sighed with relief. "I was just telling Riley that things have been crazy in the family lately. I wanna throw a party to reveal your identity. Let's see who dares to mess with you then." Phoebe pressed her lips together tightly.

They all knew who was behind the kidnapping, but with Bishop on the run, they had to keep it under wraps.

"Taylor, there's something I need to tell you."

Taylor looked at Phoebe, confused. "What is it?"

Phoebe slowly pulled her hand away from Taylor's. She looked up, meeting Taylor's eyes, and spoke clearly. "Theodore probably hasn't told you, but ever since my last miscarriage, I can't have kids. I can't give the Reynolds family an heir. Taylor, please agree to my divorce from him."

Taylor's fingers trembled as she stared at Phoebe in disbelief. "What do you mean?"

"Half a year ago, I went to the hospital for a follow-up. The doctor told me I would never have my own children again." Phoebe's face was calm and indifferent, like she was talking about the weather.
