Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO novel Chapter 373

Chapter 373

Grace had been about to wave off the suggestion, ready to refuse.

But the next second, everything went black.

She slumped back in her chair, body going limp, her lips parting slightly.

The assistant froze in horror.

“Madam Grace! What’s wrong? Please wake up!”

He rushed forward, checking her quickly, heart racing.

But when he was done, panic fully set in.

Grace was completely unresponsive, like the life had drained out of her.

Thinking Aurora was still outside, he immediately shouted toward the door, “Someone! Miss Walton, come quickly! The Chairwoman’s collapsed!”

But there was no response.

Seconds passed and still nothing.

A chill ran down his spine. Something was very wrong.

He had yelled loud enough for anyone nearby to hear–if Aurora had still been outside, she would’ve rushed in by now.

After making sure Grace was as stable as he could manage, he grabbed his phone and called the rest of the executive team.

When they arrived and saw Grace’s condition, the shock was written all over their faces.

“What happened?”

“She was fine earlier–how did she suddenly collapse?”

Voices rose, accusations flung toward the assistant, questioning how he’d been caring for the Chairwoman.

He felt overwhelmed and frustrated–he didn’t know what had caused it either.

But he kept his head.

“Enough arguing,” he said sharply. “We need to get her to the hospital now. She’s not stable, and we can’t afford to delay.”

He knew better than anyone: if word got out that the Chairwoman had collapsed, the fallout for Walton Corporation could be disastrous.

The stock would nosedive. Everything could spiral.

One thing was clear–none of them dared to say a word about the Chairwoman’s condition.

The room fell silent immediately. Everyone understood the assistant had a point.

If word got out that the Chairwoman was in critical condition, it would do Walton Corporation no favors. It could shake market confidence and send the stock plunging.

And for this group of executives, losing money, or worse, delaying profits, was practically a death sentence.

With that thought in mind, they all agreed that there could be no delay.

Getting Grace to the hospital was the top priority.

After all, the company’s future performance hinged on the strength of its leadership.

If the leader fell, so might everything else.

That was precisely why no one dared leak the news about Grace’s illness.

They arranged for her to be taken directly to the private hospital funded by Walton Corporation.

Before departure, the executives issued strict warnings: under no circumstances was the Chairwoman’s condition to be disclosed.
