Semua Bab BILLIONAIRE'S FORSAKEN WIFE RETURNS: His Fight For Redemptio: Bab 11 - Bab 20

"What happened to our child?" Octavia's shock quickly disappeared. Something dark, like barely controlled rage flashed across her face as she glared at Declan.“Don’t ask me that, ever again.” She pressed the call button near the bed.The door opened and a nurse walked in.“Watch his vitals, it keeps rising. Administer his medications and make sure no one else is allowed into his room.”The nurse nodded and left to get the injection.The moment the door clicked shut behind Octavia, the room felt suffocatingly empty.Declan stared at the space she had just occupied, his chest rising unevenly, as though the air itself had disappeared when she left. The steady beeping of the monitor beside him echoed too loudly, a reminder that he was still alive… when everything that had ever mattered to him had already slipped through his fingers.Octavia is real. She is alive. She was standing right before him, right within his grip. Yet, she had never been this distant from him because this time… she

"Let go of me, Mr. Rothschild. Otherwise this will be the end of our doctor patient relationship" Octavia glared. Something painful lodge at Declan's heart. He could see the hatred she had for me so clearly in her eyes that it hurts. Letting out a sigh, he released his grip on her waist. Octavia quickly stood up, stepping back with a stern expression. Like nothing has just happened. "This session is over. We'll continue tomorrow." And just like that, she walked out, slamming the door shut.THE NEXT DAY By afternoon, the hospital has settled into a quiet place. Declan had refused to lie still this time. With effort he had managed to stand. A flicker of satisfaction crossed his face. Then the dizziness hit. He exhaled sharply, reaching for support before he lost balance again. The nurse stationed nearby stepped forward immediately.“Be careful, sir”“I’m fine,” he snapped.The nurse hesitated before speaking gently, “If you’re going to practice standing, at least use support properl

Sebastian looked at the two brats. Then at the ice cream. Then back at them.“…What are the two of you doing?”Kai blinked. Seraphina blinked.“…Licking ice cream?” she answered.Sebastian stared. “At this time of the night?”Kai shrugged. “It tastes better now, believe me Brother”There was silence. Then Seraphina held out the spoon slightly. “Come on, Sebastian. Join us.”“We’re not doing anything wrong,” Kai added quickly. “We’re just… eating.”“Unfortunately when everyone else is asleep.” Seraphina nodded.Sebastian eyed the two of them “You’re literally sneaking food in the middle of the night.”“No,” Kai said immediately.Seraphina shook her head. “Not sneaking.”“Just eating,” they both said at the same time.Sebastian folded his arms. “Go back to your rooms before Grandma catches you both.”"She's fast asleep. It takes Grandma approximately five minutes to sleep off the moment she enters her bed" Seraphina rolled her eyes. Sebastian wasn't convinced yet.Kai shrugged. “Fine.”S

Declan took a slow step forward.“Seven years ago, you went to Dr. Hale,” he began, his voice calm despite the anger burning inside him. “You threatened him. You forced him to falsify Octavia's termination.”Vanessa's face paled just for a second. Then she laughed softly, shaking her head. “Declan, I don’t know what...”“Don’t. Don't pretend you don't know what you did”“He confessed everything.”Vanessa didn’t move at first.Then slowly her eyes dropped to the paper Declan was holding. When she looked back up at him, the innocence in her expression was gone.“You don’t understand,” she began, stepping closer. “I did it for you.”A bitter smile touched Declan’s lips. “For me?”“Yes,” she insisted quickly, reaching for him. “You were young, Declan. You had everything ahead of you. Your empire, your future, everything would’ve been ruined by that… situation.”Declan glared at her and she swallowed.“…That child,” Declan’s eyes darkened. “You mean my child.”.“I was protecting you,” she

Declan waited outside Seraphina's school. But this time... Octavia wasn't there.His entire focus was at the entrance. Seraphina finally stepped out among the other children, her backpack bouncing lightly against her shoulders. She paused just outside the gate, scanning the area. She was sharp and careful.Declan watched carefully. The sight of Seraphina outside the gate without Octavia in sight, made him feel uneasy. Why was she alone? What if something happens...Before he could think further, Seraphina's gaze landed on him and her pupils dilated a bit. She recognizes him. But this time, she didn't hesitate. Instead, she narrowed her eyes slightly and started walking straight toward him, boldly.Declan felt something tighten in his chest as she got closer. Up close, it was even more undeniable. She looked like him. Not just in appearance, but in the way she held herself, the sharpness in her gaze. She was unmistakably his daughter. The thought of it hit harder this time.Seraphina sto
