Chapter 491

Though the person did not introduce herself, Anne already knew who it was as it could only be

Dorothy.

She knew Bianca's number and there could only be another person as vicious, that was the reason

why she rejected the phone calls earlier when she saw the unknown number.

She simply deleted the text message to keep herself from arguing with Dorothy, before calling the

nanny to make sure that her children were taken care of.

She spoke with the triplets for a while and told them that she was on a business trip, and that she

had not disappeared like the last time.

The children remained understanding and agreed to wait for her to get back.

At night, Nigel reserved the room next to Sarah's and told Anne to get some rest there.

"You should take that room. I will just sleep here," she said.

There was a couch in the room, but Nigel was too tall to be sleeping comfortably there, so Anne

decided she should stay with Sarah instead.

"Just go. I can sleep here. Go on," Nigel insisted.

Anne went to the room next door and laid on the bed.

One would have to be blind to not tell how Nigel felt about Sarah, and she could not help but

wonder why life had to be so difficult for both her and Nigel.

Nigel had to care for his family and Sarah at the same time, when Anne could tell how Dorothy felt

about the situation through the text she received.

Three days had passed and while the police pressed charges on the driver responsible, Sarah had

not regained consciousness despite the experts Nigel hired were trying every way possible to help

her.

Nigel left the room when Anne was wiping Sarah's body and once Anne was done, she opened the

door to let Nigel in, only to find him arguing with someone on the phone.

"I did mention that I'm leaving you with everything, but there has been an emergency. Dorothy, just

give me some time..."

Anne stilled and thought to herself, "What? Leaving everything? Is Dad divorcing Dorothy? When

did this happen?

"Dorothy? Dorothy..."

Anne returned to the room and Nigel went back inside shortly after, looking as though nothing had

happened.

"Dad, did something happen?"

"Just something about work. I might need to go back to Luton. Don't worry, I'll come back soon."

"Sure. We don't know when Mom will wake up anyway, so I will stay here..." Anne bit her lips

hesitantly.

"What's wrong?"

"I'm sorry, Dad, I didn't eavesdrop on purpose. Are you getting a divorce?" Anne asked.

Nigel's eyes darted away as he struggled to find the words to say.

Is it because of me and my mom?”

“No. It's for personal consideration. I got back together with Dorothy all those years back for Bianca's sake. Now that Bianca is

going to get

married soon, I should start thinking about my own life. Call me if you need anything,” Nigel said, before leaving the hospital,

Anne sat by the bed and stared at Sarah dazedly. "Mom, Dad is getting a divorce and I think he is giving up everything. I guess that

makes sense, since Dorothy and Bianca wouldn't possibly accept the divorce that easily... Mom, what would you say to Dad if you

are awake? Will you tel him to proceed, or will you tell him not to get a divorce? I don't know what to say. Dad said that he is

doing it for himself, but I felt so happy when I heard that he's getting a divorce. Is it right for me to feel that way?"
