My Drama King Husband (Yvaine and Silas) novel Chapter 46

The news of Zachary's hospitalization spread rapidly. Ryan told a few close friends, who then told their families and social circles, who passed it onto theirs...

Like wildfire, the rumor multiplied.

By the afternoon, practically the entire elite circle of Brenok knew the Crown Prince was laid up in the hospital with a bleeding stomach. Once the VIP room number leaked, the stream of visitors was endless.

Every single time the door clicked open, Zachary's eyes darted eagerly toward it...

And every time, the disappointment crushed him a little more.

The one person he desperately wanted to see never walked through that door.

His temper visibly worsened by the hour.

Initially, he had forced himself to offer curt, polite responses to the well-wishers, but as the hours dragged on, his patience completely evaporated. No matter who walked in, he greeted them with a death glare, looking as if they owed him millions.

Ryan stayed by his side the entire time.

Later, Spencer Sutton and Nolan Norwood arrived to keep him company.

The three of them silently observed Zachary's explosive irritation and his pathetic, desperate glances toward the door.

None of them said a word.

Spencer and Nolan had already heard the bombshell about Yvaine and Silas's marriage from Ryan.

While they were utterly shocked, they knew better than to bring it up in front of Zachary.

But they all silently understood one harsh reality: Yvaine and Silas were married, and it wasn't going to end in a quick divorce.

Marriage wasn't a game.

Especially not a corporate union between two monolithic families.

With so many financial interests tied together, getting a divorce would be incredibly complicated.

And even if Yvaine did eventually divorce Silas... with Zachary's massive ego, could he really take her back?

He was domineering, arrogant, and violently possessive.

Yvaine had already belonged to another man. Could he genuinely welcome her back with open arms, without a shred of lingering resentment?

—

The workday was ending, and Yvaine was packing up, preparing to visit Zachary.

Not as a lover, but as a friend. And a business partner.

Her marriage to Silas hadn't been made public yet, so their friends still assumed she was Zachary's girlfriend.

When news of his hospitalization broke today, a lot of people had reached out to her for insider info.

She had deflected all of them with vague excuses.
