Chapter 560
At the Revelle residence, Veronique struggled to sit up in her bed when Bailey walked into theinfirmary.
“Stay still,” Bailey said as she strode over to push Veronique back to the bed.
Veronique held her arm and asked worriedly, “Are you injured? I should have come to see you, but mybody wouldn't let me. You've only rested for a few days. Why did you leave home so soon?”
“I'm fine,” reassured Bailey as she sat on the edge of the bed. “I took some medication that I prescribedfor myself, so everything's okay now, but the development of the anti-cancer drug for you has beendelayed. How are you feeling? Are you experiencing any discomfort?”
Veronique shook her head and reached out to take her wrist, checking her pulse.
A while later, she heaved a sigh of relief. “Your pulse is stable, and your body seems fine. That's arelief.”
“You don't have to worry. After all, I'm the famous doctor, Anonymous. Of course I'll take good care ofmyself. By the way, why did you move back to the Revelle residence? I went to Justin's medical basebut didn't replace you there.”
A bitter smile spread across Veronique's lips. A while later, she revealed what had happened back atthe Xuereb family to Bailey.
Bailey arched a brow and sneered, “I can't believe Mrs. Xuereb is this foolish. Rather than acceptingher daughter-in-law and grandson, she's pressuring her son to marry someone he doesn't love.
However, you and Justin are legally wed, so no matter what she does, it won't change the fact thatyou're married.”
Veronique let out a helpless sigh and said slowly, “The Xuereb family's butler sent me a text asking meto give up on Justin. Apparently, Mrs. Xuereb has started a hunger strike and hasn't eaten for a day.She's using it as a way to pressure Justin to comply with her wishes. Bay, I'm grateful that you're here.Could you please help me with the divorce procedures at the City Hall?”
“Divorce? You're divorcing Justin?” Bailey narrowed her eyes, disapproval flashing across her face.“Are you giving up that easily? This isn't the Veronique I know. You never gave up on replaceing atreatment for Zephyr's condition. So why are you giving up on your husband so easily?”
Veronique chuckled and shook her head. A bitter look appeared on her face as she explained, “Bay,you're a doctor, so let's analyze it from a rational point of view. I'm going to die soon. There might be amiracle, but the chances are slim. I don't want to cling to him shamelessly when I'm seriously ill.”
“But—”
“Furthermore, if Justin's uncle ends up in jail and his mother dies of starvation because of me, do youhonestly think that we can still live together peacefully and make our marriage last forever?”
I want Justin to spend my last days with me, but can I be this selfish? If I'm the reason Mrs. Xuerebdies, her death will always be a thorn in our relationship. I'd rather cherish our fond memories togetherthan cling to a painful future.
“Are you sure?”
“Yes, I've been contemplating this since I returned. I've made a decision. I was going to ask Yvonne tohandle the proceedings at the City Hall, but as the princess consort of the royal family of Adrune, itwouldn't be appropriate for her to be seen in public, especially at the City Hall. I'll need your assistancewith this.”
“Okay, then. Since you've made up your mind, I will respect your decision. However, you can't clap withone hand. I'll need to speak with Justin and inform him of your decision to see if he agrees with it.”
“Sure. Thank you, Bay. Even if he disagrees with the divorce, I believe you have a way to get theprocedures done.”
After Bailey left the Revelle residence, she had planned to return to the medical base to talk to Justin.
However, she soon changed her mind and told the driver to give her a ride to Luther Group.
Instead of entering through the main entrance, she got the driver to drop her off at the undergroundparking lot.
The news about her embezzling the charity funds was all over the internet, so if she were to appear inpublic, it would cause another uproar and attract the paparazzi.
Without encountering any obstacles, she used the CEO's elevator to ascend to the top floor. As shewalked past the secretary's office, she overheard hushed whispers from inside.
Chloe strode out of her office to see everyone discussing Bailey, saying that Bailey didn't deserve to bethe CEO's wife or the matriarch of the most prominent family. Hearing that, she felt a rush of
exhilaration.
Using the charity foundation's scandal, she had successfully destroyed Bailey's reputation.
Bailey was now lambasted by many.
“Shut up, everyone! How dare you gossip about the CEO's wife?”
Chloe feigned fury and stopped everyone from gossiping before approaching Bailey with a friendlysmile. “Hello, Ms. Bailey. What brings you here?”
Bailey returned her smile. “I'm here to talk to Mr. Luther. Where is he? Is he in his office?”
“Oh, you came at the wrong time. Mr. Luther just entered the advanced conference room twentyminutes ago.”
“Oh, really?” A mischievous smile tugged at Bailey's lips. “It's okay. He'll come to meet me once I sendhim a text.”
Chloe gritted her teeth in hatred. Damn this woman. Is she showing off in front of me? Since she'shere, I'll call the newspaper to ask them to dispatch the paparazzi here.
