After the Divorce: From Heartbreak to Heiress Boss novel Chapter 43

Chapter 43 The Stubborn Woman

Although Leah had refused Quentin's help, he didn't leave. Instead, he stood still and stared at her.

He was waiting for the moment when she couldn't bear the pain any longer and would beg him to take her to the hospital.

However, even after waiting for a while, Leah stubbornly endured the pain without seeking his assistance. She kept biting her lip, leaning against the door frame, even though the pain had almost made her faint.

"You..."

Quentin's brows were furrowed tightly. Just as he was about to approach Leah, he heard Layla's concerned voice.

"Miss Wilson? Miss Wilson, are you okay? Is there something wrong?"

Upon hearing Layla's voice, Leah finally relaxed.

"Hurry... take me to the hospital," Leah said weakly.

Layla rushed to Leah's side and supported her as she swayed on her feet.

"Miss Wilson, hang in there. I'll take you to the hospital right away."

Leah leaned on Layla and said, "Thank you."

With Layla's assistance, Leah was helped into an elevator.

Quentin, still standing in the office, watched as they left. Seeing Leah leaning against Layla, an inexplicable feeling surged up within him.

He was perplexed by Leah's refusal to seek help from him despite the obvious pain she was in. She would rather endure it and wait for someone else to help her.

"Does she really hate me that much?" Quentin thought, "She used to love me deeply. How could she become a whole different person after our divorce? Could it be that all her affection in the past was all fake?"

"Mr. Worthington, should we go and check on them?" Eli asked cautiously, noticing Quentin's troubled expression.

"No..." Quentin hesitated for a moment. He wasn't sure if he should go or not. However, after a brief internal struggle, he made up his mind. "Never mind. We should check on her."

"You disobedient girl! It's been so long since the end of your work hours. Why haven't you come home to cook for us? Are you trying to starve us?"

Layla felt wronged, and tears welled up in her eyes.

"Mom, having one meal delivered won't cost that much. Why are you making such a big deal out of it?"

"Okay, I will rush back as soon as possible to cook for you." Layla didn't want to listen to her mother's howling anymore and hung up the phone. Unexpectedly, as soon as she looked up, she met Leah's eyes.

"Miss... Miss Wilson."
