I Refuse to Divorce!
Chapter 109

Mason responded lightly after Ava was done talking.

“I'm coming over right now.”

However, he didn't leave immediately. Instead, he touched Zoe's cheeklightly. It wasn't warm like before. In fact, it was rather cold.

He said in a deep voice, “I need to go to the hospital. You should goahead and head to bed.”

Zoe stayed silent.

Grabbing his coat from the bed, he put it on and leaned down to touchher cheeks again before leaving.

It was a windy autumn night.

The moment he had left, she relaxed and started panting lightly.

It was a good thing Ava called when she did. Luckily, Mason had toleave because something happened to Lilith. Otherwise, she might'vejust given in to his tender moves and brought pain and misery toherself.

Sliding off the makeup table, she looked at both the business card aswell as the diary and tucked them away.

All of her youthful memories were in that diary.

She might have hated Mason intensely, but never once had shethought to throw her diary away.

Lilith was still in the emergency room when Mason arrived at thehospital. Eric was standing at the door with a blank expression. Carly,on the other hand, was sitting on the floor, wailing at the top of herlungs.

She demanded to see the hospital director.

“Lilith was about to get married to Mason. If you guys won't surrenderthe culprit, my future son-in-law is going to shut your hospital down! Allof you will be out of jobs and end up on the street!”

Ava couldn't stand her. Noticing that Mason was walking toward them,she yelled at Carly, “Mr. Mason's here! Shut your trap unless you wanthim to pull the plug on Lilith's treatment!”

Carly had always been an arrogant person, but she cowered themoment she saw Mason.

Bawling, she asked him to speak on her behalf, “Lilith saved your life,Mason. You have to do everything you can to return the favor! Please, Ibeg of you.”

She was trying to leverage on his sympathy, but it didn’t work.

Sitting down on the bench, he turned to face Ava and asked her, “Whathappened?”

She responded briefly, “It was medical malpractice. The hospital hasfiled a police report, but the hasn't been an update since then. Whatshould we do now, Mr. Mason?”

Staring at the operating room, he spoke after a brief pause, “Send herto Lockwood Hospital once she’s out of danger.”

That made Carly feel a little guilty. They had tried to lord theirsuperiority over the Sanders's before. That was why they pickedSamphia Hospital. However, she had no way of knowing that they hadplanted their own people here.

That had to be what had happened. She had to tell Mason about it.“Lilith had always been honest and kind to others. No one would dreamof hurting her. The way I see it, someone's trying to take her out of thecompetition!

“I've heard that Zoe's close friend works in this hospital. It seems heholds a high position here too. It's probably his doing. He's the onlyperson with the authority and means, after all. You have avenge Lilith,Mason.”

Ava was impressed by her, in a manner of speaking. The doctors werestill trying to save her daughter's life, and, here she was, devising aplan to kill two birds with one stone.

At that moment, a tall figure was headed toward them from the otherend of the hallway.

That got Carly excited even more!

She grumbled, “There he is! His name's Cecil. I can't believe he's incahoots with Zoe to put my daughter in harm's way. You had better lookproperly into your wife's social activities, Mason. Don't give her thechance to cheat on you.”

Carly had no inkling of how disastrous her action was.

Mason's face was as dark as coal. Seeing Cecil reminded him of thesadness in Zoe's eyes and the fact that his wife might love anotherman. He was also reminded of the fact that his wife had Liam'sbusiness card and was plotting to divorce him!

Cecil approached him.

He looked at Mason and smiled sarcastically. “You're quite the busyman, Mason! You're here to look after your mistress in the dead ofnight. Aren't you worried that it might lead to a fight with your wife?”Mason smacked his legs lightly. He smiled coldly and said, “I'm not likeyou, Cecil. I don't fool around with some other man's wife. You gaveZoe a homemade pizza and a ride home. I'm sure you were so pleasedwith how romantic you thought you were!”

Cecil tucked his hands in the pockets of his doctor's coat. Beneath thefluorescent light, he did look a lot like Mason.

After a brief pause, he said lightly, “That's because you didn'tappreciate her!”
