Chapter 272
Mavis sobbed, “Of course I don’t want a divorce, but he’s already made up his mind. He’s not the type to change his mind.”
She knew exactly what kind of man he was, which only made her panic even more.
“I don’t even know what we’re supposed to do now.
“I’ve loved him for so many years. I just can’t live without him,” she cried, her heart aching with every word.
Just thinking about how cold and heartless he’d been made her heart ache.
Nicole wasn’t about to walk away from the Hammond family either.
Her three stepbrothers had been acting super distant lately, and honestly, she couldn’t even tell if they’d have her back.
Still, she had to give it a shot, no matter what.
She tried calling all three, but none of them answered.
‘Typical, Nicole thought bitterly. ‘I knew I couldn’t count on those guys!
The Delaney brothers had already blocked her-there was no way she could reach them now.
As for Jett, the Kingsley family had no say in Hammond family affairs.
After weighing all her options, Nicole knew she had no choice but to call her fiancé, Victor.
Victor really didn’t see this coming-he never thought Leo would actually go through with a divorce.
He never cared for Nicole at all.
The only reason he agreed to get engaged was because that miracle doctor had treated his illness, and he also wanted to use the Hammond Group for his own benefit.
If Nicole wasn’t the Hammond heiress, what would he even be sticking around for?
Otherwise, he’d just be a total joke in their social circle.
Sure, the Farrell family had business ties with the Hammond family, but when it came to marriage, they had zero influence over Leo.
Victor thought for a moment, then said, “There’s actually someone who might be able to help you.”

Chapter 272
Nicole asked, “Who?”
Victor didn’t beat around the bush. “That miracle doctor. I’ve noticed he really looks out for you, and he seems pretty protective.
“Why don’t you try asking him for help?”
Right now, this was the only card they had left to play-and it was the perfect chance to see if that miracle doctor would really stand up for Nicole.
If he did, Nicole would still be his fiancée.
But if he didn’t, Victor would just have to let her go.
Nicole was completely lost, but hearing Victor’s words was like clutching at straws. “Okay, I’ll go ask him for help.”
That miracle doctor knew all sorts of powerful people-even her stepdad and fiancé were hoping he’d pull some strings for them.
If he was willing to help out, there was a good shot her stepdad might actually reconsider.
So Nicole reached out to the miracle doctor.
She’d been getting pretty close to him lately, so she could just call him directly.
The miracle doctor picked up right away.
After hearing Nicole’s plea, he paused for a moment before saying, “Let’s meet up. It’s not something we can really talk about over the phone.”
Nicole let out a sigh of relief. “Can I bring my mom with me?”
There was a brief pause on the other end before he replied, “Alright.”
Nicole hung up and drove straight to the spot they’d agreed on.
Alicia was poring over the test results from the miracle doctor’s blood.
When she saw the blood type pop up, she was taken aback-it was totally unexpected.
It was exactly the same as hers.
Her imagination started running wild, all sorts of possibilities swirling in her mind.
She remembered the info her mentor had helped her look into.
