Chapter 1459
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
Owen was immediately surrounded by people.
âHow did the surgery go, Dr. Wagner? Is my son okay?â Francine asked Owen agitatedly.
âDonât worry. The surgery was very successful, and everything will be okay as long as he gets good rest for a few days.â The long surgery had exhausted Owen, so he didnât speak much and quickly headed to the changing room to change his clothes. There had been a lot of weird things about Stefanâs brain surgery, and he needed to talk to Stefan once heâd woken up.
âGreat! Heâs finally out of danger.â Francine breathed a sigh of relief. To her, the most important thing was her sonâs safety.
Seraphina stood nearby with a complicated expression, feeling conflicted. She was relieved that Stefan was safe, but she was also worried about the aftermath of this surgery.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updatesâ¦
âAre you okay, Ms. Murphy?â Elijah walked up to Seraphina and whispered, noticing Seraphinaâs odd reaction.
âI⦠Iâm fine !â Seraphina swallowed and averted her gaze in obvious guilt.
Elijah tilted his head slightly, observing her closely. âWhy do I feel like something is weighing on your mind? Are you unhappy that the surgery was successful?â
âNo! Of course Iâm happy butâ¦â Clenching her fists, Seraphina said, âItâs over between him and me once he regains his memory, so donât expect me to celebrate this.â
âIs that the reason why youâre so disappointed?â Elijah frowned, finding her reasoning a bit strange.
She looked more panicked and helpless instead of gloomy and disappointed, so there was a possibility that Seraphina had done something without Stefanâs knowledge. However, it wasnât the time to investigateâall they could do was wait for Stefan to wake up.
Francine calmed herself, then looked at Seraphina and said directly, âBe frank with me, Seraphina-was the car accident involving Owenâs brother your doing?â
âWhat are you talking about, Madam Francine? I donât understand.â Seraphinaâs eyes grew wide in panic, not expecting Francine to ask her about it.
âYou know exactly what Iâm talking about.â At first, Francine didnât plan to investigate the issue, but she felt that it was necessary to make some things clear. âI know youâre worried that Stef will abandon you once he regains his memory, which is why you chose such an extreme method to prevent him from regaining his memories. I understand your intentionsâ¦â While speaking, Francine observed Seraphinaâs reactions.
Seraphina remained silent and ducked her head, silently admitting to it. Although it had been a rather cunning plan, Seraphina didnât see anything wrong with it. She felt her only mistake had been underestimating Owen since he had managed to distract and evade her successfully.
