Billionaire's Pregnant Ex-wife novel Chapter 59

Chapter 59

“I’ll make them pay for what they did to you!” Those words echoed in my head harshly, triggering a series of memories to flash. I abruptly pulled to a stop and stood in place like a statue while blindly staring ahead, as a blurred scene played in my memory like a defective

film.

A sudden headache hammered my head hard. At the same time, my eyes gradually became hazy, and my surroundings began to spin until I couldn’t take it anymore, and bile rose in my throat.

“Lilibeth? Are you okay?” a woman’s voice whispered in my ear. I couldn’t see her face with my head bowed, but I recognized Sophia’s voice.

“Lilibeth, please speak. You’re making me anxious,” the old woman said beside me as she held my right arm while Sophia held the other to keep me steady.

My lips parted to speak, but no words emerged.

“Argggh!”

The hammering in my head intensified. My legs lost their strength, and I collapsed. A scream emerged from someone’s lips when I lost my balance and fell, but before the cold, hard floor could catch me, the women tightened their grip on my arms to keep me steady.

“Hurry! Help us for God’s sake!” Sophia’s soft yet commanding voice echoed inside the

room.

Footsteps scurried on the floor, and before my heavy eyelids fluttered closed, I felt strong, muscular arms lift my body.

“Someone call the ambulance!” a woman’s voice thundered with authority. I couldn’t

guess if it was Sophia speaking or the old woman.

The sound of hurried footsteps and panicked voices faded, and my body seemed to float far,

far away.

Comit it be that everything that happened today is just a dream and I’m about to wake up? But way is the pain in my head so unbearable if it’s just a dream?

My duughts were cut short by the surge of pain in my head. It was so intense that tears began on faill from my eyes. Suddenly, as if a button in my brain had been switched on, my missing menaries began to flash

“I want a divorce,” a familiar voice said. I abruptly raised my head, then stared at my imsšani vitin wife, unblinking eyes.

“Why?”““” The question emerged from my lips before I could even stop myself.

“I want a sin, Lily. You have failed to give me another child as my wife,” he replied, his amme remorseless. His face maintained a blank expression as he looked at me.

Greyson Gabriel Bradford was my ex–husband. The truth finally sank in, making a tear fall from my cheek as I recalled how my miserable life went downhill when he asked for a divance on the day of our wedding anniversary.

The face of my husband disappeared, replaced by the face of his stepbrother, Ash Bradford.

“My brother is planning to divorce you, isn’t he?”

I stared at him incredulously. “H–how did you know?” I gasped.

“Everyone knows, Lily. My brother is planning to marry Natalia Romani. Once the divorce process ends, he will marry the woman he really loves,” Ash said as he flashed me a smile.

“What if he does? It won’t change how I feel toward you, Ash,” I replied.

“You have no one, Lily. Once Grey divorces you, you’re nothing,” Ash spat bitterly, his eyes

boring into mine.

The memories stopped there, and another harsh memory came to me. This time, Elizabeth Bradford appeared.

“Ms. De Silva,” Elizabeth began in an icy tone. “I’m letting you know that this is your last day at the hotel. You’re fired.”

“Grey doesn’t want you anymore, and he’s making a way to get rid of you. You’re nothing to him. Why do you think he wanted a divorce? It is to get rid of you. If you’re not stupid enough, then you will realize he wanted you permanently out of his life.”

I wanted to escape the harsh memories, but despite trying to suppress them, they continued to taunt me. The face of Elizabeth disappeared, replaced by the face of a woman with fiery red hair and deep–set eyes. She was beautiful, but I also knew she was a wolf in sheep’s clothing.

Her name rang in my ears: Natalia Romani! As if on cue, the day I nearly died flashed in my thoughts.

I was thrown off the yacht, one hand dangling on the cold rails. My hands tightened on the cold metal to keep myself from dropping into the dark, treacherous water below me.

“Goodbye, Lily.”

Natalia aimed the gun at my head and pulled the trigger but missed as the yacht swayed.

The bullet hit me straight in the chest.

My strength faded, and the pain slammed through me with force. I lost my hold against the rails, and the cold, raging waves captured my body.

The flow of memories finally stopped, but the pain continued to stab at my chest as I recalled the details of my life.

I am Lily De Silva. The woman who’d been treated like a rag and tossed away like a toy by the man she loved. The woman who was insulted and despised by her mother–in–law. The woman whose life was ruined by her brother–in–law. And above all, the woman who was nearly killed by her husband’s mistress.

Perhaps the pain was too much for me to bear that I began to feel numb all over. Darkness

wrapped around me like a blanket. Without resisting, I let the current carry me to a place where there was no pain, only emptiness.

I woke up and found myself inside a hospital room. After a brief recollection, I remembered how I wound up there. I passed out in the middle of a room full of people and was brought

to a hospital.

Gently, I eased myself from the bed and leaned on the headboard. My gaze drifted to the

open window of my room and found myself staring into a beautiful morning sky.

A sudden realization hit me, and my gaze snapped to the direction of the wall clock to confirm it. The time on the wall told me it was seven in the morning, which meant I had

slept for more than eighteen hours!

The door opened, instantly drawing my attention.
