Chapter 156 Gavyn Has Changed
Meanwhile, at the hospital.
Inside the special care ward, the smell of disinfectant filled the air, while the blue and white walls. reflected a cold, eerie light.
Gavyn sat expressionless on the sofa in the outer room, his long legs crossed. Under the light, hist sharp and distinct facial features appeared deep and cold.
The door was pushed open, and a doctor walked in.
“Mr. Delacruz,” the person handed over the inspection report, “the report shows that the lady is not in any serious danger. The blood loss is not life-threatening, and she should be fine after a few days of observation in the hospital.”
Gavyn didn’t pick up, “It’s fine as long as there’s no problem.”
The doctor was momentarily taken aback, unsure whether this was a matter of concern or not. Left with no choice, he carefully explained some dietary and lifestyle precautions to be taken.
Gavyn was getting impatient, but fortunately, Lloyd arrived just in time. “Doctor, you can talk to me,” he said.
The doctor repeated his instructions and emphasized the importance of keeping a close eye on her, making sure she wouldn’t act impulsively again.
Lloyd jotted it down and then, with a smile, watched the doctor leave.
On the bed, Laila lay flat with her eyes closed, her face slightly pale, resembling a delicate lily.
However, not a shred of pity arose in Gavyn’s heart.
He glanced over and withdrew his gaze, “Lloyd, go contact her family and have them come take
care of her.”
Gavyn referred to Laila only as “her,” seemingly unwilling to even say her name. After saying this, he left without looking back.
The woman hadn’t even woken up yet.
“Take care, Mr. Delacruz.” Lloyd repeated, personally escorting Gavyn to the entrance of the ward. After making sure he had left, Lloyd returned to his room.
Looking at Laila’s pale, earthy complexion on the hospital bed, Lloyd couldn’t help but feel a sense
of melancholy.
Once upon a time, Mr. Delacruz would always stay by Laila’s bedside, waiting for her to recover, even if it meant putting aside important projects at work.
It seems that Mr. Delacruz has truly gained some clarity on certain matters.
Lloyd shook his head with a sigh, took out his phone, and began scrolling through his contacts. Just as he was about to make a call, he heard a rustling sound coming from the hospital bed nearby.
“Mr. Jones.”
Laila let out a delicate sigh.
Although Lloyd didn’t particularly like Laila, he still maintained basic politeness and greeted her, “Ms. Marsh, you’re awake. How are you feeling?”
Laila slowly sat up in bed, as if she had just woken up from a deep sleep, and had not yet fully adapted to the unfamiliar hospital room environment.
She stared at the snow-white wall for a moment, lost in thought. “Did Gavyn bring me here? Where is he… where did he go?”
“The company has an urgent matter, so Mr. Delacruz has gone to handle it.”
As a competent assistant, Lloyd had the ability to come up with plausible excuses with ease.
“Oh…”
Laila lowered her eyes pitifully, but soon put on an understanding expression. “It’s all right, I know he’s busy with work, and it’s not a big deal for me. You should get back to your work too, I don’t want to hold you up. I’m really sorry.”
Lloyd’s eyebrows twitched twice as he watched.
Now that Laila was awake and able to take care of herself, he was more than happy to enjoy some
leisure time.
“Take care of yourself, Ms. Marsh. I’ll be going now.”
Thud!
The door closed gently, leaving Laila alone in the spacious hospital room, which was now
incredibly quiet.
The woman’s face began to uncontrollably contort!
Damn it, damn it!
Laila sobbed as she furiously slammed her pillow onto the bed. Despite being so badly hurt and
going through so much, she still couldn’t win back Gavyn’s heart.
In fact, she was awake the whole time and never fainted at all.
She just wanted to see if Gavyn would stay or not.
Unfortunately, everything went against our wishes!
Gavyn was no longer the same person who used to worry about her and stay up all night. He left without hesitation, not even staying a minute longer!
The thought of her carefully devised plan being ruined in an instant filled Laila with such hatred that she gritted her teeth in anger.
An overwhelming sense of crisis engulfed her, and she fiercely pounded the soft quilt once more. Her palm was dripping with blood, pinched by her sharp fingertips.
In a fit of anger and regret, Laila took out her phone and quickly dialed a number.
As soon as the busy tone ended, Laila anxiously said, “Aunt Helen, I did what you told me to do, but Gavyn still didn’t stay with me!”
“You know, you’re just too young and impatient,” the woman on the other end of the phone said calmly. “Don’t worry, I’ve already released the photos. Whether he stays or leaves doesn’t matter.
It’s mainly about building momentum, understand?”
Laila was still anxious, “But, Gavyn’s attitude towards me has changed a lot. In the past, he would definitely stay by my side. I’m worried-”
“What’s there to worry about?”

The readers' comments on the novel: Unveiling The Genius Behind The Divorce
Terrible ending, so she has helped out a model and an actor get started. Her “brothers” are not protecting her, her ex loves her dearly and she loves him but has never bothered to tell him what happened to her with amnesia to clear the air on their marriage that could be fixed the second time around. Readers want the romance and love of the story, not ridiculous violence, manipulation and deception. Make it right, finish the story with a grand wedding and a child of their own....
Come-on, her not knowing anything about herself and he knowing nothing about her, any wealthy man would think that way. Aylin is being totally unfair to Gavyn as it was his mother and sister who were deliberately lying to him and treating her like crap. Make it right!...
Wow, enough… why do you make the heroine out to be a hooker and allow the bixens to look like upstanding women? Shameless. Get the two who actually love each other back together and stop the nonsense. Since when does a mother arrange for her son’s wife, despicable. And rather sickening, obviously Gavyn’s mother is an idiot!...
Relationships based on lies… despicable women.. find the newsreel where Alton was actually the one who saved Gavyn and send it to him. Leila needs to go...
It's been almost a year since the last chapter. Is this story going to be completed?...
