A Billion-Rich Woman Was Chased by Her EX-Husband novel Chapter 134

Chapter 134 

Medo First Hospital, in the emergency room. 

Grace had received blood transfusion, yet she was still in peril. 

According to the information, her face became so rigid that it was almost translucent when she was sent to the hospital. The gash on her wrist was savage and profound. 

Mr. Brown and his wife were in the corridor, accompanied by Jake and Skyler. 

Willow was heartbroken naturally. She kept calling Grace and, in tears, called out several times. 

“Alright, alright. You’re getting on in years, so you can’t afford to carry on like this… Besides, you’ll be a laughingstock!” Chairman Brown said with a sorrowful look. 

“A joke? At a time like this, when your daughter’s life hangs in the balance, all you can think about is your own reputation? Do you have any compassion or not?” 

“My son has already gonel I only have one daughter! If something were to happen to Grace, I wouldn’t be able to go on living!” Willow grabbed her husband’s collar and kept pulling at it. 

Her daughter was courting death due to a man, and her wife kept creating a commotion. 

He was not as competent as Jake to begin with, so when he couldn’t comprehend the two women at home, he felt embarrassed in front of everyone and, in a fit of rage, shoved Willow to the ground. 

“You sure know how to make a scene! This is a hospital, not a marketplace. Do you still think you’re the wife of the chairman?” 

“You… you actually pushed me. Willow was so stunned that she couldn’t even shed a tear as she crumpled to the ground. 

“Auntie, Uncle, stop bickering! The most important thing is that Grace gets through this tough time, and that’s more important than anything else!” Skyler rushed to Willow’s aid, but she was secretly scoffing 

If her mother wasn’t still “sipping tea” un the prosecutor’s office, and her father had hauled her over to help tidy up the chaos, she wouldn’t want to bother with this little brat. 

Although she was here, she had to put on a full performance. Despite her joy, she could not show it with laughter. 

“In-laws! My daughter has become like this. Can you explain what happened?” 

Chairman Brown had no outlet for his rage, so he could only express it by lashing out at Jake. “My daughter has devoted the most formative years of her life to your son!” 

“Word of the marriage has spread quickly. Everyone in Medo’s circle is aware that my daughter is engaged to Mr. Sawle. Initially, he said he would do it after Old Master Sawle’s birthday. Your son and that woman didn’t take the divorce lightly. We put up with it for Old Master Sawle’s sake.” 

“Now that the Old Master’s birthday has passed and he has divorced, how can your son suddenly go back on his promise? What kind of decent family’s daughter could endure such a thing? Isn’t this pushing my daughter to the brink of death?!” 

Gloomily filling his chest, Jake’s face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, leaving him at a loss for words. 

“We… Although we can’t compare to that Miss Thorp. Our family is large… and we can stretch across the sky with just our hands! But we are also a respectable family. We have to stand up! Mr. Sawle treating Grace like this is really too much!” 

*Director Sawle, the Brown family won’t let this slide! If my daughter and Mr. Sawle part ways… We will make sure the world knows! Don’t even think about it!” 

She was aware that her daughter had taken her own life in an attempt to compel Joseph to wed her. 

Joseph and Grace had been childhood sweethearts, and if the man still held a fondness for her, so he would never sit back and do nothing! 

No matter how the marriage was ultimately impacted, she had to maximize the benefits from Sawle Group in order to save Brown Group from disaster. It was a profitable venture, no matter how she looked at it! 

Jake sighed repeatedly, his face creased with anxiety. 

With Aubree’s matter becoming increasingly pressing, Sawle Group was planning to spread the rumor that the president had abandoned his career and caused his fiancee’s death. This would result in Sawle Group’s reputation taking a nosedive and the stock market being thrown into chaos once more. 

At this juncture, he had no alternative but to assent. He determined and uttered, “Don’t fret, in-law. When Grace awakens, you can inform her that I shall make the decision for her.” 

“Her union with Joseph will remain unaffected by anyone. Everything will stay the same!” 

Upon hearing this, the couple’s faces eased somewhat. 

Willow, when thinking of the past, still had lingering fears, for Joseph had become very powerful in Sawle Group, no longer the weak illegitimate child he once was Even if Jake wanted to help them, Joseph might not be willing to comply. 

At this moment, the sound of a series of footsteps echoed through the corridor. 

Joseph’s handsome face was pale, as if he had been drenched in dye, as he walked towards them with Max’s tail trailing behind him. 

“Grace, how is she doing?” 

Without waiting for Jake to reply, Willow hurriedly rushed over with her red, lantern-like eyes blazing and fiercely seized Joseph’s clothes. 

Joseph! How could my daughter have disappointed you?! Just look at what you’ve done! Are you trying to drive her to her grave so you can reunite with your ex-wife?!” 

“Mrs. Brown! Take a deep breath!” Max quickly stepped in and removed Willow from Joseph. 

The commotion was so big that even though Sawle Group’s people were outside, onlookers still couldn’t help but perk out to watch. 

“Calm down?! I don’t know if my daughter is dead or alive. She wept for this unfeeling man… Her blood has been spilled… Her life is in peril! How can I stay composed?!” 

Willow gestured towards Joseph’s wan and ashen countenance and exclaimed, “Joseph! If you don’t have any intention of marrying Grace, why did you deceive her and pledge to wed her?! How can you renege on your commitment to matrimony?!” 

“My daughter is so compassionate… When you attempted suicide back then, you were so close to losing your life! Fortunately, my daughter discovered it in time and rescued you…” 

“Grace has been so kind to you, how can you stand to hurt her like this! Has your conscience been devoured by a canine?!” 

Joseph abruptly experienced a severe pain in his head. 

The dark childhood shadow stirred his chest, cramping it so much that he almost lost the ability to breathe. 

He tried his hardest to push the memories to the back of his mind, averting his gaze and cruelly staring at him. 

Jerome forcibly sent Chloe to the hospital for emergency treatment of her wound. 

She forbade Jordan from accompanying her, instead requesting him to remain and look after Kiran so that her sister would not be distressed when Kiran noticed her injury. 

Jordan watched with a sour heart as his pitiful, soft and timid little sister kept crying and complaining to herself along the 

way. 

Chloe absolutely could not burden herself psychologically. 

Fortunately, she nimbly dodged back when attacked by the knife, avoiding any injury to her muscles or bones, and the wound was not too deep. 

When Chloe emerged from the treatment room, she had already applied medicine to her white and slender arm, wrapped it with gauze, and inserted a needle to break the wind. 

The coat she had on when she arrived was already damaged and so filthy that she couldn’t wear it at all. 

At the moment, she was elad in a thin, wine-red dress, her delicate and pretty face as white as snow, her cheeks lightly dusted. with cherry powder, yet still breathtakingly beautiful. 

Jersey lowered his gaze to her curly long eyelashes, and he secretly admired them. 

He then removed his suit jacket and tenderly draped it over her shoulder. “It’s chilly out there. Wear it. 

“No need,” Chloe said, her voice a bit shaky. “Im not cold.” 

Jerome grabbed hold of the front of her suit with both hands, tightly embracing her body. 

“That bandage on your arm is so over-the-top. Don’t you think your sister and secretary will be concerned if they see you like that? You should wear it.” 

Chloe pursed her lips and, hesitating in her heart, ultimately decided not to resist any longer. 

He was so considerate and understanding that she could not refuse his actions.
