Waking Up Before It's Too Late Chapter 8
Tristan's POVI was left amused yet exasperated by Delilah's irrationality, though it did lift my spirits. I glared at her with feigned irritation and said, "You're always joking around!"Delilah, seeing that my mood had improved, took advantage of it. "You got me—I'm done joking. You should have some more chicken noodle soup. You know that acting properly won't help you recover, but getting your strength back will, Tristan."It felt as though we had reverted to our previous dynamic—relaxed, in sync, and even slightly flirtatious. Delilah and I both knew, however, that certain things had changed irrevocably.Delilah tore down the pretense between us in an almost roguish fashion, only to skillfully wrap the revelation in warm devotion.I found myself unable to run away, but I didn't feel pressured to give her an answer right then.I hadn't anticipated that it wasn't just Delilah who was unavoidable, but Willa as well. I actually questioned my own sanity or vision when I saw Wi

Tristan's POVIn the end, Willa signed the divorce agreement and walked out of the ward in silence.I was still too weary from having just woken up, and I barely managed a couple of sentences with Willa before drowsiness washed over me again. When I finally opened my eyes again, I realized that evening had settled in.Delilah walked into the ward with the warm chicken noodle soup and noticed the divorce agreement with both signatures. She merely set the container down and opened it, her eyes narrowing slightly as she said, "You woke up just in time, Tristan. I just made this, so please have some."I took small sips of the chicken noodle soup, feeling the chill leave my body. I said, seemingly offhandedly, "It seems like the Jensens went down quicker than I anticipated. Willa is certainly ruthless, but the Jensens were well-established. "They shouldn't have been so easily overwhelmed by Willa's methods. There must have been another party involved here."In that instant, the

Willa's POVJoseph Lowe, Simon's lawyer, walked into the visiting room before Simon could even process what was happening. He looked indifferently at Simon and said, "Here's the public statement Mr. Timothy just issued, along with an internal memo specifically for you, Mr. Simon."Joseph pressed a printed press release, with a huge, eye-catching headline, against the glass. "Jensen Group Announcement: Strong Condemnation of Simon's Personal Illegal Conduct, Terminating All Relations Effective Immediately."Simon's voice cracked as he yelled, "That can't be true! How could my brother just abandon me? I want to see Timothy and my father this instant! Get me out of here now!"Joseph adjusted his glasses while remaining completely indifferent. "Mr. Timothy and Mr. Fred have reached a consensus on this matter. You see, the authorities have secured ample evidence, specifically the transaction records for the drugs and the flow of capital. "They both expect you to 'willingly' confess

Willa's POVJust then, a nurse emerged from the ER, looking visibly startled by the fight between Delilah and me. "If you want to fight, then take it elsewhere. This is a hospital! "I'm here to inform you that the patient has suffered a massive blood loss and requires an urgent transfusion. Since our blood bank is running low, anyone with type O or B blood, please come with me to the blood donation center this instant!"Delilah shoved me to the ground and glared at me, snarling, "You'd better pray Tristan pulls through! Otherwise, I'll personally come for you, Willa!"Having said that, Delilah rushed to the blood donation center with the nurse, her voice growing fainter as she walked away. "I need you to pull up the employees' health reports, find everyone with type O or type B blood, and contact them individually to have them come to Metropolitan General Hospital. I'll double their year-end bonus as long as they're willing to donate their blood…" I remained on the ground unti

Tristan's POVI turned to leave and encountered a waiter carrying a tray of drinks.I was just about to grab another glass of champagne when someone caught my hand in midair and handed me a glass of warm water.Delilah looked at me with a reproachful expression, saying, "You're not allowed to have alcohol anymore. Have some warm water instead."I smiled and lightly stroked her cheek in a flirtatious manner. "I'll do whatever you say, Delilah."I heard a low gasp coming from behind me, followed by Simon's dramatic exclamation. "W-What's the meaning of this, Tristan?"I looked over my shoulder with a scowl, finding that Simon's constant presence was becoming relentless and utterly irritating.Willa finally showed a rare spark of emotion, her face flushed with a hint of rage. "We're not divorced yet, Tristan.""It'll happen soon if you're willing to sign the divorce agreement," I stated flatly, having absolutely no patience left to deal with either of them. I was just about to t

Tristan's POV"It's already the fifth time Ms. Fowler has asked to meet and talk things over this week. Do you still refuse to meet her, Tristan?" Delilah asked.I accepted the glass of warm water from Delilah and swallowed the pills in one gulp. "Why would I meet her? Do I have to watch her size me up like she's evaluating a financial report or listen to her 'analyze' our bullshit marriage in the tone of a project summary? "Do I then have to cooperate with her by waiting for her to condescendingly 'handle' our divorce agreement? Willa's AI-like, business-only attitude sickens me to the core. "I won't subject myself to that kind of insult again, Delilah."I set the glass aside, took a deep breath, and continued, "In any case, I can't skip the cocktail party happening on Friday. I'll sign the divorce agreement, end the relationship, and finish it all in one go."We'll have nothing more to do with one another from then on. In the end, Willa can go back to being the CEO of her c
