Mistaken Marriage, Unexpected Love

Chapter 117

Rowena sneered. “Of course. If | don’t leave you, you'll continue to use me and hurt my daughter.”

“When did | hurt her? Do you have any idea how much money | spent on her? Do you know how much she learned because of me?”

“We both know why you've invested so much in her learning, and that’s one of the reasons why I’m going to leave you. I’ve given up on you since the day you used my illness to threaten Mila into getting married. Back then, | thought you only got yourself a mistress who could give birth to a son for you because | couldn't, but now, | know that you never really loved Mila and me!”

Withdrawing her hands, Rowena continued stuffing her clothes in the suitcase.

As he struggled to control his temper, Marvin replied, “Giving her a good education was beneficial to her, too, regardless of my ulterior motives. You’re being unreasonable, Rowena!”

“There’s no point in you saying that. I’m not going to argue with you about this anymore. I’m going to file for divorce no matter what,” Rowena retorted dismissively.

After realizing that she had already made up her mind, Marvin became more enraged. He grabbed the suitcase and threw it on the floor, which caused her belongings to scatter.

Rowena was startled for a moment, but she quickly regained her composure. “It'll make no difference even if | don’t bring my things with me. They don’t have any real value anyway.”

Deciding to aggravate Marvin further, she added, “In any case, my daughter is part of the Johnston family now. | can buy anything | want.”

Not bothering to gather her belongings, Rowena headed to the first floor. Marvin quickly went after her and grabbed her arm. “Where do you think you’re going? We're not done talking yet.”

Rowena shook off his hand.

“If we’re going to talk about something, it'll be about our divorce.”

“No way! I’m not going to divorce you! You're mine, Rowena. You can’t leave me!” Marvin barked stubbornly.

Rowena gave Marvin a sideways glance but stopped arguing with him. Her decision was final. If he did not agree to a mutual divorce, she would seek Legal counsel. In the worst-case scenario, she would sue him.

In the first place, it was he who cheated on her.

With that in mind, she briskly descended the stairs and left the Haynes family’s house.

Rowena then decided to inform her daughter that Aldrin had hit someone while driving her car so that Camila could deal with it immediately. When the call went through, it was a man who answered the phone.

“Who's speaking? May | talk to my daughter?” Rowena held her breath as she wondered if the man on the phone was Isaac. “This is Forrest. Mila is injured. She's in the operating room right now,” Forrest replied as he stood outside the operating room. Rowena’s stomach churned in worry as she asked, “What happened? Did my daughter get hurt?”

Forrest solemnly replied, “Yes.”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“Which hospital are you in?” In just a matter of seconds, Rowena’s anxiety went through the roof.

“Military Central Hospital.”
