Sleeping in Her Bed and Thinking of Another novel Chapter 14

Chapter 14

1/2

Darren was about to arrange for a private plane when Azalea suddenly called. “Brayden! Where are you? Did you know that Scarlett tried to commit suicide?”

Brayden’s hand froze where he held the phone.

They would need time to get the private plane ready, so Brayden said to Darren, “Get the private plane ready. I’ll reach the airport in about an hour.”

“Alright,” Darren said. “Which city in Taronta are we heading to?”

Brayden was stumped. He suddenly realized that while he knew that Lindsay’s adoptive

parents were in Taronta, he didn’t know which city they lived in.

Perhaps Lindsay had mentioned it, but he had never listened carefully to her.

He felt a rising sense of irritation and said, “Check all the planes that flew to Taronta today and see which city Lindsay went to!”

“Yes!”

When Brayden arrived at the hospital, Scarlett was sobbing.

“You might as well just let me die, now that the whole world knows that I’m a fake heiress! What’s the point of living on?”

In the past, Brayden had always felt sorry for Scarlett when she was in this state. However, all he felt today was irritation.

He suddenly thought of Lindsay. No matter how much she had suffered, she would always deal with it quietly on her own.

She even hid under the blankets whenever she cried.

He felt a sudden pang. He walked into the hospital room and heard Laurence’s indignant voice. “What the hell is Lindsay playing at? She asked for a divorce and said she’s cutting ties with us. Now, everyone is even more certain that we’ve been tormenting her!”

“Maybe she did it deliberately.”

Azalea scoffed. “She wants people to assume that we’ve been hurting her. She’s so vicious for someone so young. How shameless!”

No one would have believed that a mother would talk like that about her own daughter, Brayden had just heard it with his own ears.

but

When Laurence and Azalea looked up and saw him, they asked immediately, “Have you found Lindsay yet, Brayden? If you have, make her come at once and kneel in apology to Scarlett!”

Brayden felt even more annoyed. “She’s returned to Taronta.”

“What?” Laurence and Azalea looked shocked.

Azalea recovered first. “Did she go back to her adoptive parents? What an ingrate! We’re her parents! Why did she go back to those penniless beggars?”

Laurence looked unconcerned. “Let her go back if she wants to. She’ll soon come crawling

back. I refuse to believe that she would give up or being the York heiress in favor of that penniless couple.”

“Really? But she already wants a divorce.” Brayden’s brow wrinkled slightly.
