The Billionaire's Mistake (Anya and Daniel) novel Chapter 291

Donald sat in the ambulance completely in thought. This entire day drained him. He was not sure what had come over Elena to behave this way.

She used to be very agreeable, what happened?

He thought about this all the way to the emergency room. The doctors immediately started handling Melanie’s injury while he waited.

As he sat on the hospital bench waiting, he received a text from his sister asking if Elena had been arrested.

Looking at the text, he recalled what Elena had said about Hannah and dialed his secretary’s number.

“Vivian, Find out what Hannah is doing abroad at the moment and all she has done in the past few years,” he instructed.

“You want to check up on the young miss, sir?” Vivian asked.

“Get a detective to find out what she has been doing, Vivian,” he instructed again. This time, slightly agitated.

It was as though Vivian could tell to stop pushing as she immediately answered, “Yes sir, I will put someone one it immediately.”

Upon getting her reassurance, Donald ended the call and walked over to the ward Melanie had been set up in.

The moment he walked in, he noticed that she was now awake. But, before he could say a word, she began crying.

“Donald, what did I do wrong to Elena, why did she have to divorce you because of me? I did not mean to…” she started saying.

Donald felt an instant head ache descend on his skull, so he cut her off.

“It is not your fault. She is the one who wanted a divorce on her own, don’t think too deeply about it,” he answered her while massaging his temple.

“I don’t think she is the one who spread those pictures to the media, so both of you should not fight. It will be easily explained and all things will be resolved if both of you sit down and had a conversation,” Melanie said.

“Don’t worry about things you should not be worried about. She is out there living her life, even when you got hurt, she did not care, so why are you so bothered with her?” Donald said.

“Besides, who else would release those photos except her? Just concentrate on you health,” he added. He did not believe that she had nothing to do with the media hunt against Melanie.

“I am Just worried that you will continue fighting because of this,” Melanie said. She looked really worried.

Donald knew she was softhearted and kind, but this was a bit much. It was clear Elena had been the one to spread this news to smear her online, but she was still insistent to resolve it peacefully.

Well, he was not her. He was not the kind of person to take these things lying down.

“Since she started this, she should have been ready for me to respond,” Donald said and Melanie smiled inwardly.

The more they fought, the more opportunities she had and the more Donald would be able to see how good she is.

She did not think this last stunt of hers would force Elena to leave her marriage. If she knew, she would have pushed harder these past few years.

But she was glad. Now that Elena was gone, she could take her rightful place as Donald’s wife. There was no one standing in her way anymore.

Elena on the other hand, had driven back to her childhood home. When she stepped out of the car and stared at the familiar gate, she felt nervous.

She took several steps unto the paved walkway, wondering what would happen if she entered the house. When she got to the door, she hesitated and stood there a while.
