Surprised Wife With Twins novel Chapter 1289

Chapter 1289 Deleting Rowan

The clichéd drama of being cheated on had actually happened to Claire! Her first feeling was not anger, but rather, a piercing pain in her heart, a pain that was quite pronounced. She took a deep breath, and it was as if the air was filled with shards of glass, each breath stabbing her lungs.
She didn't know how much time had passed before she managed to close TikTok with trembling fingers. The whole world seemed to quiet down, but at the same time, it didn't. She stood there for a long, long time...
Until the corners of her lips curled up, and she laughed – a laugh filled with disbelief. "I'm such a joke!" she exclaimed. After writing romance novels for years, she had no experience in love, but she thought she was an expert in matters of relations.
Sitting cross-legged on the sofa, Claire furrowed her brow, and tears welled up in her eyes. A headache came over her, and she felt exhausted – the kind of exhaustion that affected her body and soul. A simple meal together had made her happy for such a long time, even lifting her spirits while she wrote.
In Claire's heart, Rowan had always been like a ray of light, his brilliance illuminating her world. Suddenly, that light was extinguished. It wasn't that he no longer shone, but rather... he had gone to light up someone else's life.
How could Claire, who had wholeheartedly loved him, accept this? Her faith had collapsed. But Claire didn't immediately call Rowan to confront him. She understood his choice to be with Daphne instead of her. They were a better match, more suitable for each other. But he was insincere!
After a while, she took out her phone and opened the news page. News about Rowan and Daphne filled the screen, their pictures crystal clear. Each image stabbed her heart. Daphne had gone home with him and spent the night at his place – an irrefutable fact.
She didn't know how much more time had passed when Claire opened her phone and stared at her chat with Rowan. There wasn't even a single new message. With the news making such a commotion, how could he not know? Did he really not care about her feelings? Was he too lazy to even offer an explanation?
Why did he accompany her to dinner last night? He had even taken a walk with her and discussed their views on love. After an agonizing hour of waiting, Claire's emotions were in turmoil, and she hadn't received even a single punctuation mark from Rowan. Her sadness doubled, and she felt like crying.
Even though she was reluctant and genuinely loved him, Claire resolutely deleted Rowan's contact information, removed him from Facebook, deleted his phone number, and turned off her phone. She thought this should be the most dignified exit, right? After all, she was the one who had fallen in love first.
Putting down her phone, she embraced a pillow and cried her heart out on the sofa. Then she picked out a beautiful outfit, took a hot bath, and tried her best to adjust and compose herself.
Meanwhile, Rowan was in the operating room. The operating light was bright, and the scalpel in his hand was thin. Despite the high difficulty of the brain surgery, he and his team of doctors were dedicated and had held three rigorous meetings to develop the surgical plan. Everyone cooperated seamlessly.
There were always risks involved in surgery, and the patient had encountered some complications. Everyone's nerves were on edge, so it was truly a test of their professionalism and ability. In other words, Rowan was still unaware of the news.
Daphne had heard from another doctor that Rowan was in the operating room, and the surgery that day was particularly challenging. She was worried about his emotional state. However, she also had enough time to think about how to clean up this mess. Making such a scandalous news headline was not what she wanted. She had just been confused last night.
"Dr. Wells, are you dating Dr. Watson?" People were always curious about others' affairs, and someone couldn't help but ask directly.
