How My Ex Became My Next

Derek and Gilda went to the rooftop of the hospital.

“Mr. Donovan, I’m not sure what you want to discuss with me. I don’t think we have anything to discuss if it is about Madeleine’s miscarriage.”

Derek looked at her with his sharp eyes and then said solemnly, “My men have investigated the surveillance video of the bar. The cameras did not capture the footage of the incident at that time. If Madeleine insists that you are the murderer, do you think you can get away with it?”

Gilda smiled.

“You can’t twist the truth, Mr. Donovan. Do you have the ability to manipulate things?” Her words had a faint undertone of irony.

Derek continued, “That’s your family’s territory in Frencia, Ms. Lynch. However, in Allath, we can definitely accomplish anything the Donovan family truly wants to do! But today, I’m not here to turn you against me. I simply want to use this as an opportunity to make peace with you. After all, making a big deal out of it is bad for everyone.”

Gilda raised her eyebrows and asked, “Mr. Donovan, how to make peace?”

“Give us 200 million dollars! After that, this matter is over, and the Donovan family will no longer hold you accountable, Ms. Lynch.”

Gilda thought, ‘200 million dollars? How dare he say that!”

“Mr. Donovan, what a fortune you’re asking for! Or has your business declined in stature and is waiting for funding to cover its losses?”

Gilda got to the point.

However, Derek said brazenly, “200 million dollars is just the loss of my ring.”

“Oh!” Gilda spread out her hands and said, “So what? A settlement is impossible. I’m going to let Madeleine. rot in prison.”

Gilda made her position clear.

“Are you going to fight me till the end?”

“I just don’t want to take the money and let it go. After all, we both know how Madeleine lost the baby. It had nothing to do with me.”

“It’s not up to what you say. If Madeleine insists that you did it, can you run away?”

“Mr. Donovan, you think you can distort the truth because you don’t think there is any proof. But how do you know I have no evidence?”

Then Gilda left without looking back.

Looking at her back, Derek snorted coldly, gripping the cane silently and tightly with his wrinkled hands.

Derek went back to the ward, but Jensen was gone and Madeleine was alone, sobbing.

*Grandpa! I want that bitch Gilda dead!” Madeleine said viciously.

However, Derek sneered coldly, “You have to grab her life gate and hit the right spot if you want her to

die!”

“Grandpa, tell me what I should do!”

Derek had already made up his mind.

That afternoon, when the police came again, Madeleine insisted that it was Gilda who pushed her and caused the miscarriage!

Reporters discovered it somehow and disseminated it via the internet. It instantly shot to the top of trending topics. A few comments were posted in the comment section.

[My goodness! Is Ms. Lynch so feisty? She made the mistress lose her baby!]

[That was a human life. Although the mistress is hateful, the baby is innocent. How could Ms. Lynch do that?]

[A life for a life. Although it was only an embryo, the nature of this matter is very bad. Ms. Lynch has to pay for what she did.]

[My goodness! What’s wrong with these people? The mistress’s kid should not exist! Good job, Ms. Lynch!] There were a ton of comments made about this topic on the Internet.
