The Transactional Marriage That Imploded novel Chapter 283

Sylvia didn't disclose Bianca's condition to Mathis.

'Mr. Jagger, I cannot discuss Ms. Baldwin's condition with anyone. I must protect my patient's privacy.'

Mathis paused and remained silent for half a minute before saying, 'I am her husband. If you don't believe me, I can send you a picture of our marriage license. Do I not have the authorization to know?'

Sylvia was astonished. She was well aware of his highly publicized romance with Cynthia; everyone on the internet thought they were deeply in love.

It turned out to be nothing more than a massive affair.

That explained the root of Bianca's anger and agony. What woman could tolerate her husband flaunting his mistress everywhere while keeping their own marriage a secret?

Sylvia explained politely, 'Mr. Jagger, even if you are married, you do not have the authorization to access her private medical details.

Psychological treatment strictly adheres to confidentiality agreements. Even as a spouse, without her written consent, I cannot proactively disclose any session content or treatment specifics to you.

If you insist on knowing, you'll need your wife to write a formal letter of authorization. I can provide the template.'

Mathis's heart tasted bitter. He didn't even dare let Bianca know he was the one who had arranged for Sylvia; there was no way he could get an authorization letter.

After a long silence, he asked, 'Then what can you tell me?'

Sylvia replied, 'I can only tell you that she has severe suicidal tendencies. This is a risk you need to be on guard for. I have no comment on anything else.'

Mathis's pupils dilated, and his voice trembled slightly. 'She isn't planning to... do it, is she?'

Sylvia sighed softly. 'Not currently, but she's been deeply depressed for a long time. If this drags on, she will eventually reach a point of no return. It would be best if you don't provoke her further.'

Sylvia left it at that, hoping this so-called husband would take the hint.

And stop parading around with other women online every day.

After hanging up, Mathis wanted to call Bianca to ask where she was, but he remembered she didn't want to see him.

He made an immediate decision: he would bring Aveline back tomorrow.

If Bianca was gone, nothing else would matter.

He sent her a message: [Aveline is coming back tomorrow. You can pick her up at the airport.]

Aveline was returning on a chartered flight. After Zane arranged it, Mathis forwarded the flight details to her phone.

He hoped the news would bring her a little joy.

Bianca got into Simon's car while calling a designated driver to take hers back to Crestmont International.

Simon let her pick the restaurant for dinner, and she chose a Thai place downtown.
