Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Selena rubbed her forehead, feeling momentarily speechless, so she just sent back an emoji.

However, her cool demeanor didn't deter Lily, who quickly fired off another message. [Selena, I still think you and Callum make a better pair. I mean, your husband is... sure, he's hot, but with that icy stare, he's kind of scary! I hardly dare to get close to him!] Selena disagreed with the first part-she and Dr. Campbell were just friends-but she couldn't deny the second part.

Lily pressed on, [Selena, if you weren't married, would you go for Callum?]

Selena shook her head and chuckled. This girl really wasn't afraid to ask anything.

Selena wasn't keen on answering such a hypothetical question, but Lily's persistent barrage of pleading emojis wore her down. With a resigned smile, Selena seriously considered it and replied, "Who wouldn't be drawn to a sweet guy like Dr. Campbell?" Sure, Dr. Campbell's taste might be questionable, but his decade-long devotion to a woman who didn't choose him, and his loyalty without badmouthing anyone, spoke volumes.

With a solid family background, a thriving career, and an even temperament, he was resilient and strong-perfect husband material. Had she not been married, had she not fallen for Everett before meeting someone like Dr. Campbell, she might have been swayed. But... in this world, there were no what-ifs.

About half an hour later, Selena strolled back to the hospital room with a bowl of freshly washed grapes. Josh had calmed down completely and was back to his friendly self as if the earlier drama was just a mirage.
