Chapter 84 I Want a Divorce
“He was here to see me. He has something to deal with, so he left.” Adele bit her lips and said lightly.
She was not willing to tell her parents about the truth of the matter lest they would worry. Moreover, Professor Wes had heart disease. If he knew the truth, he would definitely be stimulated. So she might as well keep it a secret.
Hearing what Adele said, Ms. Henderson did not ask more. She sat down and asked a few other questions. Finally, she was busy peeling apples and pouring hot water for her.
Seeing that it was time for dinner and Ms. Henderson and Professor Wes had no intention of leaving, Adele said softly, “Dad, Mom, why don’t you go home and have some dinner first? It’s time.”
Ms. Henderson frowned. She wanted to say that she would stay and accompany her, but Professor Wes reached out and pulled her. He said, “Let’s go. Staying here will affect Adele’s rest.”
Hearing him say this, Ms. Henderson stood up.
Adele slowly tightened her hands under the quilt and smiled at them. She pretended to be calm and said, “Dad, Mom, don’t worry. With Mary here to take care of me, I will be fine.”
“Have a good rest. I will come to see you again soon. I’ll bring you some chicken soup.” Ms. Henderson said with heartache.
Adele nodded and watched them leave.
The moment the door closed, she let out a long sigh of relief.
Just now, when she looked at her parents, the grievances in her heart were imperceptibly maximized. Tears swirled in her eyes. If they did not leave, she was afraid that she would not be able to hold back and burst into tears.
The grievances she had experienced were only known to her now.
After being taken care of by Mary for a few days, Adele could finally get out of bed. There were still many injuries on her body, but fortunately, they did not hurt her bones. She could still move a little.
Damon had not come to see her in the past few days. The hatred she originally had for him slowly increased a little.
“Mary, I’m just going out for a walk. You don’t have to follow me.”
Hearing Adele say this, Mary was still a little worried. Seeing her firm attitude, it was not ok to say anything.
After leaving the ward, Adele took a deep breath. She had been in the ward for days. It had been a long time since she had seen the sun outside.
Walking to the lift entrance, Adele looked at the propaganda slogan pasted on the side of the lift. Only then did she realize that this was Fairmont Hospital.
It was the hospital where she had accidentally ran into Damon’ secret, and also the hospital where Clara was.
After getting into the lift, she could not tell the kind of emotions stirring in her heart. Adele bit her lips and actually pressed the button.
She wanted to see what kind of a special creation Clara was that Damon was willing to spend so much effort to protect and cherish.
He would rather give up his own child to save this person.
Coming out of the lift, Adele walked out through her memories. Not long after, she saw Ben standing at the door of a ward.
Adele’s heart tightened.
Could it be that Damon was also there?
She bit her lips, clenched her fists, and walked forward.
Ben realized her presence, and his face became a little serious. “Madam, you…”
Adele limped forward and pretended to look at him calmly. She took a deep breath and said, “I just came to take a look. Is that okay?”
“Madam…” Ben looked a little embarrassed.
“Is Damon inside?” Adele frowned slightly.
“Yes,” Ben answered truthfully.
Hearing this, Adele’s heart sank.
Sure enough, Clara was the most important to him. She and Clara were in the same hospital, and he only saw her once when she woke up. For the rest of the time, he was with Clara. She knew who was more important.
“I’ll just take a look from the outside. I won’t go in.” Adele bit her lips and said firmly.
Seeing the hesitation in Ben’s eyes, Adele understood. She looked down at her scarred body and asked softly, “Do you think I can do anything to them like this?”
Ben had nothing to say. After a few seconds, he slowly moved away.
Adele slowly walked to the door and looked through the small square window on the door.
On the sofa next to the big window, Damon lowered his head slightly and flipped a book on his knees. A slender and pale woman was nestled in the man’s chest. The two of them were reading a book together.
The sunlight shone in and enveloped the two of them in a layer of soft light, making them look like an immortal couple.
Suddenly, the woman raised her head and said something to Damon. The man curled his lips and a gentle smile appeared in his eyes.
Seeing the smile on Damon’s face, Adele was caught off guard and felt a pain in her heart.
In her impression, Damon seemed to have never been so gentle to her.
Sure enough, love or not could be told from a person’s eyes.
But why had he insisted on marrying her? Was it just for her kidney that matched Clara?
Adele felt a burst of suffocation. She gritted her teeth, looked away, and turned to leave.
After taking two steps, she suddenly thought of something. She turned to look at Ben and said softly, “Before knowing me, they were deeply inlove, right?”Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
A trace of hesitation flashed through Ben’s eyes. He paused and said softly, “I’m sorry, Madam. I can’t answer.”
Catching his slight expression, Adele smiled. She already had an answer in her heart.
It seemed that there was no home-wrecker in her marriage with Damon because she was the person who had interfered with other people’s feelings.
Now that she thought about it, it was really ridiculous.
In the VIP ward-
Damon closed the book and coaxed Clara to rest for a while. When he saw that she was asleep, he walked out of the ward.
Seeing him come out, Ben looked a little hesitant. “Mr. Yusuf…”
“What’s wrong?” Damon looked a little tired.
“Madam came just now…”
Ben repeated what had happened half an hour ago.
Damon frowned, his deep eyes flashed, and he said lightly, “I’ll go see her.”
As he spoke, he walked away.
When he arrived at the door of Adele’s ward, Damon stopped in his tracks. He looked at the woman lying motionlessly on the bed with a complicated expression.
“Young Master, you’re here?”
Mary walked over from the side.
Damon nodded.
“Aren’t you coming in to take a look this time?” Mary asked.
In the past few days, Damon had come several times, but he didn’t go in. He just stayed at the door and left.
Damon hesitated for a moment, then finally reached out, pushed the door open, and slowly walked in.
When she heard the voice, Adele turned her head mechanically. When she saw that it was him, her gaze couldn’t help but darken.
Right now, she didn’t want to see him at all.
“How are you doing these past few days?” Damon moved his lips and asked softly.
“Pretty good,” Adele replied faintly.
Damon paused for a moment before asking, “I heard that Mom and Dad came a few times. How are they…?”
“I didn’t tell them the truth, and I kept your secret. You don’t have to worry.”
Damon paused, unable to speak.
A moment later, he took half a step forward and moved closer. “If you need anything, just say it.”
He would slowly compensate her for what he had owed her.
When Adele heard this, her body stiffened. She turned around and suddenly looked at Damon seriously. “No matter what request I make, you will agree?”
“Yes.” Damon did not hesitate at all.
“I want a divorce.”
