Chapter 148
âCornelia, stay here Everyone else, get outâ Di Dawson said with authority, and no one dared to disobey her
However one person didnt understood just standing there in a daze
Comelia saw Zavier not moving and shoved him. âNow youâre worried about her? What were you doing before?â
He didnât know if she was using too much force, or Zavier was too weak and was almost pushed down by her. Zavier steadied himself but still didnt plan to leave
âPresident Hartley please take him out. Donât let him get in the way here,â Cornelia said, not realizing she was using a commanding tone
His wife rarely asked for help, so Marcus would definitely handle this âZavier, you should leave for now!â.
After Zavier left, only Cornelia and Dr Dawson were left in the room. Dr. Dawson said, âSkylerâs will to survive is weak. You find a way to wake her up, and handle the restâ
Comela sobbed, 1 must make sure she lives! I wonât let anything happen to herl Shell be finel
Dr. Dawson glanced at Cornelia, thinking she was acting strange today
Usually, she was calm and composed, even when injured. Whatâs going on with her today?
But there was no time for Dr. Dawson to think, saving Skyler was the most important thing.
Time was ticking away
Everyone outside held their breath, especially Zavier. Every little sound in the room affected his fragile nerves.
Marcus handed him a cigarette, âSheâs your wife. Why would she rather die than be with you? What have you done to her?
Zavier tried to take the cigarette, but his hand was trembling too much. The normally steady man was now as fragile as a helpless child.
After a while, he hoarsely said, âShe wanted a divorce, and I disagreed. I thought I could use a child to the her down, but I didnât expect.â
âIs that all?â Marcus felt there was more to it
âWhat else?â Zavier suddenly yelled emotionally. It was her who drugged me, slept with me, and forced me to marry her. I helped the Blue family through tough times. Now that theyâre doing well, she wants a divorce. What does she think I am? A pet that she can summon whenever she wants?â
No matter the reason for marriage, Marcus believed that once you promise to marry someone you should treat them well. No reason can justify/mistreating a spouse. âSo what have you
done to her?â
Zavier didnât answer. Whatever he did, Skyler deserved it, and he couldnât be blamed
That woman, trying to escape him like this, he would never let her go.
Zavier didnât say anything, and Marcus didnât ask further
He thought of his own marriage. Cornella was looking forward to divorcing Jeremy every day, but he disagreed
Would Cornelia also choose to go to extremes like Skyler?
Marcus didnât dare to think more. No matter what, he and Cornelia couldnât end up like Zavier and his wife
At that moment, two other couples arrived
Rosie wore a high collar, but it still couldnât cover the red hickeys on her chin, her eyes were also red, and she didnât know if she was made to cry by Lucas, or because she was worried that Skyler would be sad.
