My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire novel Chapter 737

Selena stared in shock at the medical report in her hand, fear washing over her.

She stood up abruptly, walking over to the window to let in some fresh air, hoping it might help calm her nerves.

Just then, she noticed Mrs. Gill outside, walking toward the parking lot while talking on the phone with “Keera.” Mrs. Gill's voice was full of frustration: “That Selena, I've never liked her. Gavin doesn't either. If it weren't for Ryan, we wouldn't have taken her in. But now that Gavin's so loyal to her and with this illness… well, no one's saying anything anymore. What can we do?”

Mrs. Gill continued her conversation as she reached the parking lot, leaving Selena frozen in place as if struck by lightning.

She gritted her teeth. It was true! Back then, she'd done everything in her power to deceive Gavin, making him believe she truly loved him for who he was, unaware of his family's wealth and status. She thought marrying into the Cobb family would give her the leverage she needed in life.

But the Cobbs were so low-key, refusing to let her use their name to get ahead. As a result, marrying Gavin didn't bring her the benefits she had expected, and her standing in the Horton family remained the same.

The Cobbs were a powerful family in Clance. If they'd just supported her a little, she and her mom wouldn't be in this mess. But over time, she had resigned herself to her reality. At least she'd married Gavin, ensuring she never had to worry about money or comfort.

Even if she did get into trouble, Gavin could bail her out, no problem. Yet, the one thing she never saw coming was Gavin getting sick. If Gavin died, with Mrs. Gill and the Cobbs already against her, they'd waste no time kicking her out.

No way.

Selena clenched her fists tightly. She refused to accept that fate.

Just then, there was a knock at the door.

Selena snapped back to the present as Gavin walked in, his sad gaze settling on her.

She frowned. Was he trying to hide his illness from her?

A sudden wave of resentment crept up inside her. He was dying and hadn't even told her. He hadn't given her a chance to prepare for the future!

As these thoughts swirled in her head, Gavin finally said, “Selena, you still have that two million in savings, right?”

It was part of the dowry he had given her.

Selena's treatment was expensive, and while Gavin could always ask the Cobb family for money, he didn't feel comfortable doing that yet. They had enough for now, so he planned to use her savings first. If that ran out, then he would turn to the family. After all, he wasn't one of the main heirs, despite Ryan's favor. He didn't want to take advantage of it.
