Missing Mrs. Lowry: The Billionaire's Wakeup Call novel Chapter 10

He seldom graced her with leniency, yet Megan turned it down. Her slender pale fingers curled slightly.

Sullivan’s patience was wearing thin. “What on earth do you want?”

Megan murmured low, “Divorce! I want a divorce from you.”

With Sullivan swamped in work and Megan refusing to come home, this morning, he couldn’t even find his cufflinks, which set him off. Just as he was about to lose his cool, he saw Begonia talking to a nurse in front of a white BMW in the parking lot.

Sullivan’s mood soured even further, and he clicked his tongue in annoyance.

Then his phone rang.

It was Bianca.

Sullivan answered with an edge to his voice, “What’s up?”

Bianca dutifully informed him, “Ms. Baldwin just had a fall while getting out of bed. It’s possible she injured a nerve in her leg. She’s in a foul temper right now. Mr. Lowry, perhaps you should visit her in Harmony City? If you do, she will surely be delighted.”

Sullivan held the phone, silent for a moment, clearly hesitant because of Megan nearby.

The volume on his phone was high enough for Megan to overhear. She let out a faint laugh, opened the car door, and walked away without looking back.

A chill evening breeze swept over her, and she shivered.

She thought, fortunately, when Sullivan had earlier taken out the wedding ring, she had not been moved, had not reconsidered, and had not thought about returning to that suffocating marriage.

Thank goodness.

As her figure disappeared into the distance, Sullivan watched her go while still speaking to Bianca, “Get her the best doctor!”

“But won’t you visit her in Harmony City?” Bianca asked, surprised.

Sullivan had already hung up. After ending the call with Bianca, he tried to reach Megan, but her number was unreachable. The messages, too, couldn’t be delivered.

Megan had blocked his number and on social media as well…

Sullivan, fuming, tossed his phone aside. After a while, he picked up the diamond ring and observed it quietly. Now he was convinced that Megan was determined to leave him. However, without his consent, she would still have to be Mrs. Lowry.
