CEO is Chasing Ex Wife Back

Chapter 216

Chapter 216 He Regrets It

As soon as Alma came out, she saw that Zac was outside.

“Mr. Buchanna… you heard it all?” Alma felt sorry. She should not have said those words. Otherwise, Aurora wouldn’t have been annoyed. Alma was just being kind and wanted to bring Aurora and Zac back together.

At the very least, they could stop hating the other party so much. Zac turned back and said, “Take good care of yourself. Don’t worry about anything else.” Alma nodded.

The person who knew the most about her physical condition, besides herself, was Zac. Alma sighed. At this age, she had long stopped caring about life and death. At night, Aurora was about to go to sleep. Aurora was called to the study by Zac, and he asked her to type some documents. “Mr. Buchanna, these are all the Buchanna Group’s project proposals. I’m an outsider, isn’t it inappropriate?” Aurora frowned.

Aurora didn’t want to be criticized in the future. Moreover, it would be late after finishing that. Zac looked up at Aurora without saying a word, but his cold eyes conveyed his meaning. Aurora pyrsed her lips and sat down helplessly. Two hours later, Aurora was dozing off. “Continue.”

Zac threw another document in front of her. Aurora was dizzy. When she took it, she almost knocked over the teacup on the table. At this time, a burst of cracking sound suddenly came from outside the door. “Not me.” Zac immediately got up and headed toward the living room.

Aurora chased after him only to see Alma lying next to the sofa, already unconscious. “Call a car and go to the hospital!” “Alright.” Aurora saw the anxious look on Zac’s face with her own eyes. He carried Alma and walked out through the door in a few steps.

Aurora got nervous and hurriedly followed him out. The hospital corridor in the early morning was quiet.

The lights in the operating room had been on. Aurora curled up on the bench and Zac sat opposite her. The two of them looked at each other in silence.

The words that Alma said in the afternoon lingered in Aurora’s mind. Zac was not a cold person, and he was forced to be like that by the plight of life. Aurora lowered her head.

It seemed that she had never thought about why Zac always regarded the Bennet family as his enemy. The hatred that he kept talking about, in the end… There came a bang. Alma was pushed out by the doctor. Because Alma was a patient brought by Zac, the main surgeon was the deputy director on duty tonight.

“Mr. Buchanna, let’s go to my office to talk.” The doctor looked worried. Zac seemed to have expected this outcome and followed him without any expression. Aurora carried their coats and followed them.

“After the treatment, the patient will soon regain consciousness. The cancer cells in her body are also under control, but it is inevitable that they will spread.

Th the past few years, you and the patient have been working hard, but unfortunately, it’s inevitable.”

Zac clenched his fists, his eyes filled with sorrow that could not be dispersed.

Aurora was also shocked.

Aurora opened her mouth but did not know what to say.

“How much longer?”

Zac asked after a moment of silence.

The deputy director sighed and said conservatively, “At most one month.”

When they left the office and walked to the ward, it was unclear how Zac was feeling. He looked like he was sad, but also like he did not care.

In the end, Zac stopped not far from the door.

Aurora raised her head and saw that Zac was no longer as arrogant and unruly as he used to be. His eyes were faintly red.

“Let me stay with Alma. If you are here, she will be worried,” said Aurora, trying to help.

Zac looked at her and did not move for a long time.

“Mr. Buchanna, do you need to cancel your flight at six in the morning?” Carter rushed over when he received the news.

Recently, there were indeed many things happening to the Buchanna Group. Zac glanced at Aurora and said after a while,

“If there is anything, tell me any time.”

Aurora nodded and watched Zac turn and leave.. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

The lights in the ward were still on.

Aurora calmed down and walked in.

“Alma, are you awake? How are you feeling?”

Aurora still needed to act brave.

Otherwise, Alma would feel even worse.

Alma sat up with a smile. “I’m fine. I’ve been like this for a long time,” she said.

Alma looked in the direction of the door.

Although she didn’t ask, Aurora knew what she meant.

Zac went to the company. Maybe he didn’t want to see me.” Aurora forced a smile and said, “It just so happens that I don’t want to see him either. Alma, what do you want to eat in the morning?”

Aurora tried her best to act as usual.

Alma smiled and said, “Let’s go back and eat. I’ll make a toast for you, okay?”

But Alma couldn’t leave the hospital yet!

“Alma, the people in the hospital said that you can only be discharged after Zac has signed it. However, he is not here now and can’t go through the discharge procedures.” Aurora managed to find a reason.

Alma was stunned for a while and seemed to believe it.

THI’ll go to the hospital cafeteria to take a look. You get some rest first. I’ll be back soon.” Aurora smiled as she waved her

hand and quickly walked out.

Aurora did not know what to say to Alma.

Aurora’s phone vibrated. It was a message from Zac.

There was a very detailed explanation, which was Alma’s preferences and the things to take note of her illness.

Aurora’s pupils trembled slightly. Zac was not indifferent. He was just taking care of Alma in his way. If he was too considerate, Alma might refuse and avoid Zac. That was why Zac maintained his usual indifference.

Got it,” Aurora replied as she clutched her phone. Before sending it out, Aurora hesitated again and again before adding, “Don’t worry.”

Zac, who was in the car heading to the airport, looked at the phone screen and unconsciously smiled. Flipping up a few more messages, Zac found that Aurora’s tone towards him was not good. Further up were the texts from two years ago.

“Zac, are you coming back for dinner?” “Zac, Dad’s company seems to have problems. Can you help him?” Zac…” Without exception, Zac had never replied.

Zac suddenly felt sad. When Shawn was in trouble, Aurora must have been so helpless. He had experienced that pain before. Zac gripped his phone tighter. The pleasure of his initial success was completely gone at this moment.

Zac had used that marriage to achieve his goal, but he had also destroyed Aurora’s entire life. How could Aurora not hate Zac? Zac had a lump in his throat. Zac couldn’t breathe as if something was pressing against his chest.

Aurora stayed with Alma at the hospital for a day. When Aurora went out to buy food at night, she met Kate. Connor was the only one behind Kate. Seeing Aurora, Kate immediately walked over and said, “Aurora, why are you in the hospital? Are you unwell?” “My… my friend is in the hospital.”

“Kate, why did you come to the hospital?” Aurora asked.

“I’ve been feeling unwell lately, so I came to have a checkup.” Kate held Aurora’s hand, refusing to let go no matter what, “Terry has been busy with the company recently. Did he give you the cold shoulder?

Don’t mind it. After a while, he will sort things out and things will not be like this.” Of course, Kate could feel Aurora was estranged.

Aurora was no longer as friendly and enthusiastic as when Terry was hospitalized. When Aurora heard this, she shook her head and said, “Kate, it’s not like that. Maybe Terry didn’t tell you. I told him…
