《He Sent Me Away for Three Years. Now My Divorce Has Him Panicking.》全部章節：第 1 章 - 第 10 章

Three years after James Gibson sent her to Harbor City on assignment, Nina Walker called him for the very first time.On the phone, she told him everything the doctor had just said about her mother’s condition.Her mother, Megan Quinn, had developed a severe bloodstream infection. She was in critical condition, and her life could be in danger at any moment.Nina had to return to Burgola City immediately.But after hearing all of that, James barely reacted. His voice was cold when he said, “Nina Walker, you’re not a doctor.”What he meant was obvious.Even if she went back, there was nothing she could do.Of course Nina knew she wasn’t a doctor. She knew she couldn’t save anyone.But that was her mother.When something like this happened, all she wanted was to be by her side.So even though Nina had always obeyed James without question and had never once gone against him, she still gathered the courage to speak.“I want to go back and be with her. Don’t worry. I’ll only take

There was something strange about the way Yvonne said that.Combined with the smug look on her face, it made Nina wonder if Yvonne had something to do with all of this.Before Nina could think too deeply about it, footsteps sounded behind her.Then James’s voice rang out.“What happened?”Before Nina could say a word, Liam rushed to complain first.He pointed at Nina and cried, “Daddy, she bullied me! She tried to hit me just now! You have to stand up for me. Hurry and punish this old woman!”As he spoke, he even forced out a couple of tears.It was a world away from the cruel little boy who had been hurting Mochi moments ago.If Nina hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, she never would have believed a child could be so skilled at putting on an act.But James clearly believed him.Or maybe he didn’t.Maybe his first instinct was simply to never believe her.“Apologize to Liam.”After she heard that, Nina almost wanted to laugh.He hadn’t asked what had happened.He hadn’t

When Nina returned to Lakeview Estates, the housekeeper froze at the sight of her.“What are you doing here?”Compared to that morning, her attitude was much more hostile and guarded. Someone had clearly said something to her.Nina, however, was far calmer.“This is my home,” she said. “Why wouldn’t I be here?”“Your home?” The housekeeper gave a cold laugh. “That’s news to me. As far as I’m concerned, Mr. Gibson and Ms. Gibson are the only owners of this house. Who do you think you are, showing up here and pretending you belong?”As she spoke, she moved to shut the door.“Leave now, or I’ll call security.”Nina reached out and pressed her hand against the doorframe. Her voice remained calm and cold.“If you can say that to me, Yvonne must have told you quite a lot about me. Did she also tell you I have a bad temper, violent tendencies, and no sense of restraint once I lose control?”As soon as she finished speaking, Nina raised her hand slightly, deliberately trying to scare

Nina didn’t have much else to do at home.She had only gone back to get Mochi.Jane still remembered Mochi. The moment she saw the dog, she was about to reach out and pick her up.But Mochi, who had been relatively quiet until then, suddenly started barking the second someone came close.Then her whole body began to tremble, and she curled into herself.Jane frowned in confusion.“What happened to her?”“She’s scared of people.”“Why?”“She was badly abused.”Nina didn’t hide it from her. She told Jane everything she had seen after returning to Lakeview Estates.After listening, Jane cursed outright.“It’s bad enough that James and Yvonne are both heartless monsters. I didn’t expect that little brat to be one too.”Jane looked ready to grab a knife and storm over there, but Nina stopped her.Everything was too messy.She was too tired.She and Jane had only just seen each other again, and Nina didn’t want to drag her into the chaos too.Since Nina had said that, Jane d

“As long as your mother is all right, that’s what matters,” Mr. Carter said. “You don’t need to worry about anything else. Harbor Care Hospital has advanced technology and some of the best medical resources in the world. Your mother will be fine.”“Thank you,” Nina said again.She couldn’t think of anything she could do to repay him, so she brought up her resignation.“I’ve already submitted my resignation to Gibson Corporation. I’ll be able to leave in a month.”As she was speaking, Nina suddenly heard another man’s voice on the phone.It was low and magnetic, and he said something in Harborish.She didn’t understand it, but for some reason, she thought his voice sounded beautiful.“Are you busy right now?” she asked, worried that she might be interrupting Mr. Carter.“No,” Mr. Carter denied quickly. “That was just someone passing by.”Nina didn’t ask any more questions.She had only called to update him anyway.“Then I won’t keep you.”“Contact me anytime if you need anyt
