Chapter 11 " Are you really … really going to get a divorce ? " Patricia looked up , her pale lips trembling slightly , but a flash of joy flickered in her eyes . She threw herself into Timothy's arms . " I thought … I'd never have the chance to be with you again in this lifetime . " Timothy froze for a moment , then reached out to wrap his arms around her thin shoulders . He clearly liked Patricia very much and wanted to marry her , but a dull ache inexplicably rose in his chest . He subconsciously rubbed his temples , thinking it was probably due to his sleepless night that even his emotions had become overly sensitive . " Get some proper rest . We'll marry once you've recovered . " He patted Patricia's back , his voice softening involuntarily . Mrs. Campbell immediately asked when she saw the doctor enter . " How's my daughter ? " " Don't worry , there's nothing physically wrong with the patient . She fainted from temporary shock caused by extreme fright . " The doctor removed his stethoscope . " Keep her overnight for observation . She can be discharged tomorrow 0.00 % a C12 N 00:29 Chapter 11 288 Vouchers if there are no complications . " Hearing this , Mr. Campbell's tense shoulders instantly relaxed where he sat nearby . Patricia tugged Timothy's sleeve just then , her voice pleading , " Timothy , I'm starving . I want those soup dumplings from the corner shop . " " Alright , wait here . I'll get them now . " Timothy agreed instantly . As he was turning , he collided with his bodyguard rushing through the doorway - hands bloodstained . This was the very man who'd pulled Shirley from the cliff edge . " Where's Shirley ? Why isn't she here ? " The bodyguard hesitated . Timothy never asked about his wife's whereabouts before . " Mr. Mitchell , Mrs. Mitchell didn't come to the hospital with us . " He lowered his voice . " But she left a gift for you in the car … for your birthday . Should I fetch it now ? " Timothy froze mid - step . She did mention preparing a present- But her giving gifts isn't strange at all . For years she'd been sending presents , but Timothy never cared . He recalled Shirley's message from their phone call and felt inexplicably irritated . 28.81 % 11 212 00 29 Chapter 11 288 Vouchers " Just leave it there . " His tone was icy . " Probably something unimportant . I'm not in the mood right now . " He turned to leave when his bodyguard added , " Mrs. Campbell insisted you open this one personally . ' Timothy snorted coldly . Playing hard to get when they're divorcing ? He checked his phone and headed toward the elevator . " Tell her I'm not interested . And she should stop sending things . I never liked them anyway - gonna throw it away later . " As the metal doors slid shut , Shirley's face surfaced in his mind for some reason . Shirley always claimed to have a sensitive stomach , yet habitually brewed strong coffee whenever she worked late nights . Despite her fear of heights , she'd eagerly accompany him on mountain hikes . Just last week when he casually mentioned craving Maple - Glazed Salmon Plate , she'd placed her homemade version on the dining table the very next day . " Sir ? What flavor of dessert would you like ? " The clerk's voice snapped him back to reality . " One of each flavor , please . " Timothy accepted the paper bag , his fingernails digging unconsciously into his palms . After mere years of marriage , those little gestures of consideration from Shirley weren't worth dwelling on . He didn't love her anyway . 57.19 % 11 DON 00:29 Chapter 11 288 Vouchers Returning to the hospital , Patricia beamed with delight . " You're the best ! " Timothy handed her the desserts with a practiced smile , his mind still tracing Shirley's whereabouts . His phone screen suddenly lit up at that moment . He quickly checked it only to find it wasn't a message from Shirley . Timothy felt inexplicably disappointed . 90.67 %
