Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart novel Chapter 978

Anya thought Lorie would also be delighted to hear she would stay for her. But to her surprise, Lorie shook her hands a bit intensely for a few times.

It scared Anya out.

She could feel that Lorie didn't want her to stay.

"Don't you want me to stay, mom?" asked Anya.

Perhaps, Lorie was exhausted for responding to her for so long. She didn't react to her this time. Instead, she fell into unconsciousness again.

Anya was so worried that she went for Dr. Choffard. He comforted her patiently, "Take it easy. Your mother must be tired out. She has come to herself, though slightly, but I think she will fully regain consciousness after we run the check-ups and make the most suitable recovery plan for her."

Anya nodded with confusion.

Then Dr. Choffard went for the general check-ups and group consultation for Lorie with several other doctors in hospital, while Anya sat down in the restroom, feeling worried and uneasy.

In the Old Time Cafe owned by Ezra.

Phil came straight to the cafe from the court after he divorced Anya. Ezra and the other guys were waiting for him there, and Arthur had return from town, because they all knew it would be a long day for Phil.

Phil pushed the door open and went into a private box, then he glanced at Arthur, "No need to lay it on so thick! Hell, do you think I will cut my wrist to kill myself too?"

Phil was mocking himself. Surely, he knew clearly why Ezra had asked him out to the cafe after he got divorced. Apparently, they were worried about him and they were afraid that he might do something stupid.

He really wanted to stop Anya from divorcing him by cutting her wrist but he also knew that Anya wouldn't cry for him even if he died in front of her. She just hated his guts now and she couldn't wait to kill him for her mother.

They were in different office rooms to finish the divorcing procedures, but he could see her face on the camera from beginning to the end. She didn't hesitate a bit to sign her name on the papers. Obviously, she simply couldn't wait to get rid of him and set herself free.

Unlike her, Phil was in another room and he signed with his shaking hand.

He looked down from the room after they finished the divorcing procedures. He saw she left determinedly. But he just felt heart-broken and couldn't help teasing himself.

He had been loving and caring for her for four years. But it just meant nothing to her when compared with the accident he had caused indirectly.

He didn't mean to hurt Lorie or put her into unconsciousness. His original intention was that he wanted to help them get away from the jerk and live a wonderful life, so that they could be superior to those shameless bastards.

Phil left the court and got in the car. He rested himself on the back seat with his eyes closed. He knew he couldn't focus on driving, so he had called for the driver to take him there.

They were in the cafe now. Arthur looked at Phil's gloomy face and suggested, "We still have a few days off. How about going on a holiday in the suburb? We can take hot spring bath or go skiing."

"Jean is pregnant, right? Do you think it a good idea?" said Phil, carelessly.

"The girls will stay. It's guys time." said Arthur.

Phil had just got a divorce and they wouldn't be so foolish as to go on a holiday with their wives and children to upset him.

So, they talked it over and decided that only the guys would go on a holiday with Phil. The girls would stay in and have fun together. But it frustrated Arthur that Jean fully supported the idea when he told her about it.

Arthur was unhappy and wondered why she didn't like to stay with him.

Later he asked Julian and Ezra and got to know that Emelia and Maisie thought the same as Jean. Then he felt better and was fine with it.

At first, they thought it might be a bad idea to leave the girls behind and it would break their hearts. But it turned out that they had flattered themselves. Actually, the girls were really happy with the arrangement.
