Trick Him Into Divorce, Then Flee With His Unknow Kid novel Chapter 241

Chapter 241: Chapter 241 Don’t Touch Her

Everything happened so suddenly.

Samantha had clearly rushed to steal the seat, and as she passed by, she deliberately slammed into Rose.

While carrying Ariel, Trevor casually wrapped an arm around Rose’s waist to steady her.

At the same time, he cast Samantha a cold, piercing glance.

Rose watched the vehicle drive away, her mind replaying the image of Ryan leaving without even looking back.

Her eyes became bloodshot.

Her breathing grew uneven.

Even though Ryan had chosen to give the opportunity to Mike—who was perfectly healthy and strong—without knowing the truth, Rose still could not suppress the overwhelming sense of betrayal.

She was trembling with anger.

But she refused to let Ariel see even a trace of it.

The reason she had wanted to take the school’s emergency vehicle was because it carried medical supplies and emergency medication.

A child’s illness could not be delayed.

“I’ll drive. It’s okay, Rose.”

Trevor reacted immediately, carrying Ariel toward the parking lot.

Rose had no time to dwell on her anger.

Ariel had been hospitalized countless times as a child.

It had almost become a traumatic trigger for Rose.

They quickly got into the car.

Trevor reversed smoothly and drove directly toward the hospital.

In the back seat, Rose held Ariel tightly.

The little girl’s body was burning with fever.

Ariel wiped the tears from her eyes with the back of her hand.

Seeing Rose’s pale face, she wrapped her arms around Rose’s neck and gently patted her back with her tiny hands.

“Mommy, don’t be scared. I just don’t feel very well. It’s nothing serious.”

The little girl was clearly suffering from a high fever, yet she was astonishingly mature for her age.

Rose felt as though her heart had been scorched.

Ariel touched Rose’s cheek. “It’s okay. All little kids get sick sometimes. It’s only natural for Mike’s sister and her boyfriend to worry about him, just like you and Daddy worry about me.”

Her thoughtfulness only made Rose feel worse.

Because it wasn’t the same.

He wasn’t merely someone else’s boyfriend.

He was Ariel’s father.

But that truth had to remain hidden.

And revealing it would only hurt Ariel.

The little girl would be devastated if she ever learned the truth.

Rose said nothing.

She simply hugged Ariel tightly and kissed her forehead.

“Okay.”

Trevor glanced at them through the rearview mirror.

His voice softened. “Ariel is wonderful, but you must remember to put yourself first sometimes, understand?”

Ariel giggled.

Her flushed cheeks made her look heartbreakingly fragile, but she still nodded.

“Okay.”

After arriving at the hospital, Ariel’s condition proved to be fairly serious.

Her fever had reached 39.2°C (102.6°F), and she had vomited several times.

The school’s investigation revealed that one child had shared expired snacks with the class.

Combined with the fact that several children already had the flu, the situation had quickly escalated.

When Rose stepped out of the examination room, she ran into Ryan and Samantha, who were also at the hospital.

She did not spare them a second glance.

Instead, she turned and went to pay the medical bill.

Samantha watched Rose walk away.

For some reason, she remembered Ryan’s words from the classroom.

Turning toward him, she asked, “Ryan, what did you mean earlier when you said Rose had more experience?”

Ryan lowered his gaze to his phone.

His tone remained indifferent.

“Nothing.”

Samantha did not feel comfortable asking further.

*****

Ariel needed to remain hospitalized for two days.

During that time, Trevor had to handle company matters.

Rose stayed at the hospital the entire time and did not return home.

She and Trevor had quietly agreed not to tell Dr. Nathan and his wife about Ariel’s illness.

The elderly couple adored Ariel.

They simply could not bear to see her suffer.

They would only tell them that Ariel had gone out for a few days.

As for Mike—

As expected, he was discharged the very same day.
