Our Anniversary, You Chose Her – I Chose Divorce novel Chapter 23

Chapter 23: Chapter 23: Don’t Let Me Die in Bed

She stood by the bed, watching him lie unconscious.

He looked so fragile right now.

The sharp, proud aura about him was gone. He couldn’t do anything to hurt her now.

She clutched the pillow in her hands.

’He deserves to die.’

’Making me love him so much, only to hate him this intensely now.’

’All my joy and all my pain come from him.’

Chloe Reed’s emotions churned, but in the end, she let go.

’I can’t do it.’

’I just want a divorce. I just want to get away from him, not for him to die.’

After all, this was the man she had loved for eight years!

She backed away slowly and sat down in a chair.

The unconscious man was completely oblivious.

At three in the morning, Walker Grant was jolted awake by a surge of pain. He opened his eyes and instinctively glanced beside him.

She hadn’t been back when he had returned.

But now, he saw a figure curled up in the corner.

She was hugging herself, like an insecure child.

Walker Grant’s eyes were bloodshot. His breathing was still labored, and though his fever had subsided, the pain in his back was as sharp as ever.

In the dim light, he gazed at her sleeping face, as if he could never get enough of the sight.

「The next day.」

Chloe Reed was woken by a searing heat.

She opened her eyes to find herself being held in an embrace.

Her body was comfortable, but her heart seized.

She immediately pushed the person away.

Walker Grant had been lying on his side, but her push sent him flat on his back. His handsome face instantly contorted, and cold sweat beaded on his temples.

"Chloe..."

Walker Grant’s voice was incredibly hoarse. "It hurts so much."

Her old gentleness and charm were gone. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚
