Ex-husband's Sweet Trap novel Chapter 15

Mia was on a diet, so she couldn't eat any high-calorie food. She pulled a chair over to the side of the bed and ate an apple while Luz and Logan had their dinner.

"What, your new company is piling so much stress on you that you had to be hospitalized?"

"No, it's not that, Aunty Mia.

Logan stuffed a piece of chicken into his mouth and said vaguely, "I was going to the underground parking lot with Mommy and a bad guy almost hit Mommy with his car, so Mommy fainted."

Mia was at a loss for words.

Luz blushed slightly and said awkwardly, "It's just a cold. I felt better after taking some medicine, but maybe the air in the parking lot was too stuffy, so I passed out."

"No, that bad uncle scared mommy!"

The little fellow said indignantly, his cheeks bulging with food.

"He was touching Mommy when she was sleeping! He's bad! I won't let him go so easily the next time I see him!"

Mia was interested in this. "Really? Is he handsome?"

"...He's a little more handsome than Uncle Declan, but he has a bad temper."

Logan realized something was not right after he said that. He glanced at Mia derisively. "Aunty Mia, you're focused on the wrong thing."

"If that uncle is handsome, then your Mommy didn't lose out on anything!"

Mia laughed so hard that she was trembling. She raised her head and ruffled Logan's hair. "If he was rich, you can consider him your new dad! Isn't that great?"

"I don't want that!" The little fellow said angrily and pushed Mia's hand away.

That man was handsome, but he was not a good person. He preferred Uncle Declan.

Luz waited for her son to finish his food before going out to deal with the discharge procedures. To her surprise, the nurse at the window told her, "Your husband has already paid for three days of hospitalization. I can refund the extra to you."

"Husband?"

Luz was dumbfounded and somewhat embarrassed. "I don't have a husband. Did you mistake me for someone else?"

"No, he did pay for you. Your name is on the invoice here." The nurse was also confused as she gave her the invoice and the refunded money. "I guess he's your friend, then. Sorry for the misunderstanding."
