Chapter 297 Soundproof Rooms
Gwen obediently got into the car.
Hugh walked over to Bethan and handed her an envelope.
“I won’t be able to make the wedding day after tomorrow. Mind passing this along?”
Bethan took it reluctantly. “Why not just send it through Venmo?”
Hugh’s gaze locked onto hers, his voice heavy with
emotion.
“Bethan, do you really have to keep pushing me away like this?”
Just then, Miranda opened the door. “Bethy, time to come inside.”
Bethan turned to answer.
Hugh couldn’t help but grab Bethan’s arm.

After a moment’s pause, Bethan took the envelope from

With that, she turned and jogged into the courtyard.
Hugh stood at the gate for a long time, not wanting to leave.
Gwen called out to him several times from the car before he finally responded.
Once Hugh got in the car, Gwen couldn’t help but ask, “Hugh, do you regret divorcing her?”
Hugh glanced at his sister.
Even though he felt worried and didn’t want to let go, he didn’t regret agreeing to the divorce.
He wanted a fresh start with Bethan-a real one this time.
He’d do whatever it took to rebuild what he’d destroyed and prove he could be better.
One day, she’d want him back. He’d make sure of it.
The next morning, Bethan had breakfast with her
parents. 2/9

Ever since the divorce, she’d started cherishing these quiet moments with them.
She loved her life now-simple, peaceful, free.
Miranda asked worriedly, “Is Hugh still bothering you? Won’t he give up?”
Bethan set down her fork to reassure them. “Don’t worry. He just came by last night to pick up Gwen and asked me for a small favor.”
Miranda sighed with relief.
Vincent said, “We watched that boy grow up. He’s always been polite and decent. Now that Bethy gave him the divorce he wanted so he could be with that woman, he shouldn’t bother Bethy anymore.”
Bethan didn’t tell her parents about Megan’s situation.
Megan had killed Hugh’s half-brother. Hugh would never let that slide.
After breakfast, Bethan cleared the table and headed to
hospital.

As soon as she parked and got out of her car, she saw Megan walking up.
Bethan felt instantly drained. “Megan, if you’re here to
ruin my morning, don’t blame me when I slap you.”
Megan smiled smugly. “I left my jacket in the office yesterday. Just came to get it. Why so hostile, Dr. Olsen?”
“You came to my face to get a jacket?”
Megan laughed again.
She cleared her throat, lowering her voice slightly. “You saw it yesterday-Hugh still has feelings for me. He told me himself that he divorced you for me. I know you’re jealous and bitter, but that’s the truth.”
Bethan nodded. “He doesn’t just have feelings for you-he loves you. He’s completely obsessed with you.”
Megan gave her a satisfied smile. “It’s my birthday tomorrow. Hugh’s preparing something special- something unforgettable, he said. So I’m skipping therapy.” 4/9

Olsen, you’ve known Hugh for years. What kind of expensive gift do you think he’ll give me?”

A cold laugh escaped Bethan’s lips. “Megan, here’s some advice for you.”
Megan smirked. “If you’re about to tell me how jealous you are, save your breath. I’m well aware.”
“Enjoy it while it lasts,” Bethan said flatly. “What goes up must come down. Don’t get too comfortable.”
With that, Bethan turned and walked away.
Watching Bethan’s confident, defiant figure, Megan’s eyes turned sharp as knives, like she wanted to stab right through her.
Megan clenched her fists, her bloodshot eyes filled with jealousy and hatred.
Once she and Hugh were really together, she would deal with that bitch Bethan-and that old woman Fiona too.

“It’s my birthday today. Could you lend me a few thousand dollars?”

Her sister-in-law Nola rolled her eyes. “Where would we get money after all the trouble you’ve caused us?”
Megan straightened up, her tone getting aggressive.
“Hugh already promised me. He said he’d give me an unforgettable gift today. If you won’t even lend me a few thousand now, don’t come begging for help when Hugh and I are together.”
Jasper and Nola exchanged glances.
He asked their mother Rachel, “Mom, is this for real?”
Rachel nodded excitedly. “Mr. Cavill literally divorced his wife for Megan! And he was treating her like a queen right there in front of his ex-wife. He’s totally about to go public with her.”
Nola perked up immediately. “Did Mr. Cavill say what gift he’s giving? A mansion? A sports car?”

Jasper said, “The Cavill family is New York’s most powerful dynasty. Mr. Cavill’s gift has to be worth millions at least.”
The couple got more excited as they talked.

“Think bigger,” Megan said. “What if Hugh proposes?”
They all laughed, giddy with excitement.
Rachel clutched Megan’s hand. “Once you’re Mrs. Cavill, your brother and I are set for life. Huge houses, staff waiting on us, buying anything we want.”
Nola quickly sent Megan thirty thousand dollars. “Megan, you’re our hope now. After you marry Mr. Cavill, help your nephews get into private schools and marry well. Help them become wealthy.”
“Mom, Jasper, Nola, just wait for my good news.”
With the money in hand, Megan left their place feeling proud.
At eight that evening, Megan spent the thirty thousand
