Billionaire husband's pursuit for his wife novel Chapter 9

"Nina? What happened to you? Why is your arm bandaged?" Agatha asked worriedly.

Nina gave her a sad smile. Out of everyone whom she thought were her family, none of them bothered about her injuries. Theo ignored her injuries thinking that she was faking them. Her father was more worried about what he could gain from her rather than her well being. But Agatha, Whom Nina met her by chance became a mother to her. She is genuinely worried about her.

'Sad that I might not be able to meet her often after my divorce with Theo' she thought sadly.

"It's nothing mom, just a few scraps. I am fine now" Nina down played it.

Theo on the other hand felt a hint of guilt. Neel inquired about the extent of Nina's injuries and found out that she was in a coma for three days and her condition was deemed critical until the day she woke up. He is feeling bad for abandoning her like that, especially after the clarity given by his mother.

'If it's not Nina who pushed mom down the stairs? Then why did her family blame her for something she didn't do? Her stepmother and brother were the first who claimed that they saw the whole thing unfold. I need to find out more about this soon' he decided.

Agatha looked at Theo and Nina together with love.

"I missed watching you together like this. This image never makes me tired of watching" Agatha mused loudly with love for them.

Nina who was already stiff standing beside Theo became even more stiffer when she heard this. Guilt ate away at her gut. While Theo is tensed. He knows that his mother would not take it easy if she finds out that he wanted to divorce Nina. So he decided to hide it for a while.

"Mrs. Morrison" just then Chelsea walked in with a bright smile playing on her lips until she noticed Nina and Theo standing together. Her smile threatened to drop, but she held it.

Nina tried to move away from Theo when she heard the nerve grating voice of Chelsea. Her husband's ex never directly confronted her or anything like that. It must be the fact that she is shamelessly clinging to Theo even when he was married to someone else made Nina dislike her.

When Theo noticed what Nina is doing, he placed his hand around her waist to make her stay put. This move took Nina by surprise, while Chelsea burned with jealousy.

"Chelsea?" Agatha smiled at her. She is not as fond of Chelsea as she is with Nina, but still she likes the Dankworth girl because she is Theo's best friend from childhood. And moreover, both the family's are close.

Chelsea forced her attention away from Theo's arm towards Agatha. She walked inside the hospital room and intentionally stood closer to Theo than nessasary. Both Agatha and Nina noticed it.

"Mom, I will be back in a minute" Nina excused herself and left. She doesn't want to be the third wheel between Theo and Chelsea who are going to get married soon. After all, Theo divorced her for this woman alone.

Agatha noticed the tension between Nina and Theo the moment Chelsea arrived.

'Looks like Chelsea did not give up on her dreams to marry my Theo' she understood with displeasure.
