Chapter 560

At the Revelle residence, Veronique struggled to sit up in her bed when Bailey walked into the infirmary.

“Stay still,” Bailey said as she strode over to push Veronique back to the bed.

Veronique held her arm and asked worriedly, “Are you injured? I should have come to see you, but my body wouldn't let me. You've only rested for a few days. Why did you leave home so soon?”

“I'm fine,” reassured Bailey as she sat on the edge of the bed. “I took some medication that I prescribed for myself, so everything's okay now, but the development of the anti-cancer drug for you has been delayed. How are you feeling? Are you experiencing any discomfort?”

Veronique shook her head and reached out to take her wrist, checking her pulse.

A while later, she heaved a sigh of relief. “Your pulse is stable, and your body seems fine. That's a relief.”

“You don't have to worry. After all, I'm the famous doctor, Anonymous. Of course I'll take good care of myself. By the way, why did you move back to the Revelle residence? I went to Justin's medical base but didn't find you there.”

A bitter smile spread across Veronique's lips. A while later, she revealed what had happened back at the Xuereb family to Bailey.

Bailey arched a brow and sneered, “I can't believe Mrs. Xuereb is this foolish. Rather than accepting her daughter-in-law and grandson, she's pressuring her son to marry someone he doesn't love. However, you and Justin are legally wed, so no matter what she does, it won't change the fact that you're married.”

Veronique let out a helpless sigh and said slowly, “The Xuereb family's butler sent me a text asking me to give up on Justin. Apparently, Mrs. Xuereb has started a hunger strike and hasn't eaten for a day. She's using it as a way to pressure Justin to comply with her wishes. Bay, I'm grateful that you're here. Could you please help me with the divorce procedures at the City Hall?”
