Surgeon's Revenge: From Ex Wife To Country's Best Doctor Chapter 104: Forty Eight Hours
Calista's POV "He called you?" The words flew out of my mouth ."Last night," he said. "After the evidence room.""What did he say?" I asked."He said the files had been photographed. That the federal case was further along than anticipated." He paused. "That he was adjusting his approach.""That's all?"Konrad slowly nodded once, like he was doing me a favor by even answering."How long have you been in contact with him?" I asked."Longer than you have." He said."You told me it was handled," I said quietly. "After the accident and there was nothing to worry about, so why were still in contact with him?""I said the investigation was closed," Konrad said. "Those aren't the same thing.""You were supposed to handle everything," my voice came out sharper than I wanted. "The contractor, the file, the inquiry, you were to protect me.""I protected this family, not you," Konrad said. "I protected the thirty years of work that would have unraveled if a poorly executed job had been traced
Surgeon's Revenge: From Ex Wife To Country's Best Doctor Chapter 103: You're Late
Calista's POV I'd been pacing since midnight.I couldn't sit still if my life depended on it. My heels kept clicking across the hardwood floor in the living room, back and forth, wearing down that expensive rug I bought last year when I still thought money could fix everything. The phone burned a hole in my hand. I checked it for the hundredth time. Nothing from Jason, not a single text or call since that last short conversation where he'd said he was "handling the evidence room" in that flat voice of his. Michael wouldn't stop texting. "We need an exit plan now," Walden was worse. Three voice notes already, his voice cracking like a scared kid, asking if we should just run and disappear before everything blew up in our faces.Konrad was the typical dead silence. The man only remembered I existed when he needed me to clean up one of his messes. Right now I felt completely alone in this too-big condo, the walls pressing in, the silence screaming. My stomach was in knots. I tossed the

Scarlett's POV "You should sleep," Spencer said from behind me."I can't," I said, still at the window."You won't find him out there." He said."I know that." I said quietly. "But If I stop thinking about it, even for a second...""He wins?" Spencer finished quietly. I nodded. "Something like that."He didn't push, just watched me for a long moment. "I'm just going to check on the kids and the locks." I said already moving to the door. "I'll be quick.""Scarlett it's-""I know." I said cutting him off. "But I have to."I moved down the hall to Aiden's room. His door was cracked open slightly, he was sprawled out, one arm hanging off the bed, his new soccer ball bracelet glinting faintly on his wrist in the nightlight glow, the medication on the nightstand exactly where I kept it. His chest rose and fell in the steady rhythm I'd been monitoring for four days now. I watched it for a moment, then I pulled his door closed.Valeria was curled up tight with her garden journal on the pil

Scarlett's POV "Ashfield." My voice came out very quiet. "Who is it?"There was a pause on her end. The kind that made my stomach twist into knots. I heard her shift papers, maybe rub her eyes. She'd probably been up all night too."His name is Jason Harris."The name landed flat. Nothing. No flash of recognition, no old memory slamming into me. "I don't know that name." I shook my head even though she couldn't see it. "Never heard it.""You wouldn't," Ashfield said. ""Most people wouldn't. He wasn't exactly the type who made headlines."Spencer moved closer, touching my arm lightly. I turned slightly toward him and put the phone on speaker and set it on the bed between us."Eleven years ago, Jason Harris was the one who caused the accident," Ashfield kept going, voice low like she was afraid the walls had ears. "The crash that sent your car off the bridge into the river."I froze. The room tilted for a second. My free hand shot out and grabbed the edge of the dresser so I wouldn't
Surgeon's Revenge: From Ex Wife To Country's Best Doctor Chapter 100: Someone Who Should Be Dead
Scarlett's POVNicholas was the last to leave. He stood at the door, one hand on the frame, eyes flicking between me and the kids."Call me," he said."If anything feels wrong," I said. "I know."He looked at me for a second, then he nodded and went.The door clicked shut and then... silence.For the first time all day, the apartment felt like ours again. I stood there in the middle of the living room, arms crossed, taking it all in. It was a disaster, but a good one. We had been safe, at least for these few hours. I let out a long breath I didn't know I'd been holding and felt some of the tension bleed out of my shoulders.Spencer was in the kitchen.I stood in the middle of the living room and began picking up the paper and started folding it, then I stopped and went to the bedroom.I found the two white boxes I'd put in the drawer three days ago when we didn't know if Aiden would be home today. I'd bought them two weeks ago, on a Tuesday afternoon between surgeries, from a small
Surgeon's Revenge: From Ex Wife To Country's Best Doctor Chapter 99: The Tenth Birthday
Scarlett's POV The walk through our own front door should have felt like the end of something. Instead I checked the hallway behind us before I locked it, looked through the peephole and pushed the door until I heard the bolt catch properly and then turned the chain. Only after that did I let myself breathe. Konrad's voice had followed me home from the hospital. No matter what I tried to focus on Aiden talking, the balloons brushing the ceiling, the familiar smell of our apartment, they were still there, lingering in the back of my mind. "Your formation diagram is still on the table," Aiden announced from the living room. "I didn't touch it," Valeria said. “I thought you would.” Aiden said. “I thought about it,” she said. “But I didn’t.” I walked to the kitchen window and looked out at the street below. There was no black SUVs. I let the curtain fall back. Aiden's medication was due at four. I set the alarm on my phone before I put it in my pocket. Nicholas foun
