The Genius Ex-Wife’s Revenge Portfolio novel Chapter 439

“Mr. Harmon, it’s getting late. You can leave now,” Ella said.

David looked at her. “It’s late. Let’s get some sleep.”

Wait. Was he planning to spend the night here?

“Mr. Harmon, didn’t your assistant bring your keys yet?”

“He can’t bring them until tomorrow. So, I’ll be staying here tonight.”

“No way.”

David glanced at her. “I’m letting you know, not asking for your permission.”

Ella opened her mouth to argue, but before she could say anything, everything went dark as David kissed her again.

...

In the hospital room, Jessa kept calling David over and over, but he never picked up. She tried calling Ella too, but still, no answer. Neither of them was answering their phones. What were they doing right now?

The memory of what she’d seen on the video call flashed through her mind, and rage bubbled up inside her. She grabbed her phone and, with a loud crack, threw it so hard it shattered.

“Ella, you bitch! I’m going to kill you!”

Rachel hurried over to comfort her. “Jessa, please calm down. You can’t get this upset, not with your health.”

Jessa shoved her away. “Mom, if you really love me, then help me. Look at Ella, she’s about to steal David from me. I never should’ve let her marry him for me. I should have never let them meet.”

Rachel felt a wave of regret too. Ella was that girl from years ago. Somehow, she and David still found their way back to each other. At first, David didn’t care about Ella, but now, he only had eyes for her.

Ella fibbed. “Wyatt, I went to bed early.”

“Oh, please. You were with David, weren’t you?”

Ella froze for a second. Was Wyatt psychic or something? She quickly changed the subject. “So, why were you calling me so urgently? Is something up?”

“Ella, David’s people have been trying to find you everywhere. He’s put out an industry-wide alert. I’m running out of excuses here. What do you want me to do?”

David was really that desperate to find her? Well, it made sense. Jessa’s heart condition couldn’t wait, and David was always so worried about her. Of course he would be searching everywhere.

Ella smiled a little. “Don’t stress, Wyatt. Just let him know I’m in Rockford Bay. Tell him I want to set up a meeting.”

Wyatt laughed. “The real Doctor E is finally in Rockford Bay. The whole Irvine family is about to go nuts. Alright, I’ll set it up. David’s been searching for you nonstop. It’s time he found out who you really are.”
