Divorced and Pregnant My New Life with a Billionaire Drives My Ex Crazy novel Chapter 236

The call ended. Wiona’s phone slipped from her hand and hit the floor with a dull thud. Everything had happened so fast, she barely had time to process it. She spent the whole night turning things over in her mind, but she still couldn’t figure out who was responsible.

She remembered hearing some rumors about an investigation at the hospital. She’d asked Mason to check it out, worried that maybe her secret had gotten out. But Mason came back empty-handed. Maybe she just didn’t have enough power to protect herself. The whole situation left her feeling helpless.

Could it be the Salisburys? If Jace found out the truth, he would definitely come after the babies. But did he really have the power to do that?

Or maybe the Morgans? That didn’t make sense, since there was nothing in it for them. Then there was Conrad. She’d heard that his mother was desperate for him to get married and have a child, to the point where she’d drugged her own son just to make sure he’d have an heir. What if they realized someone had tampered with the sperm sample? It really seemed like the Salisburys or the Sullivans were the most likely suspects.

Wiona didn’t even want to think about what would happen if anyone found out her secret.

A gentle knock came at the door. “Ms. Morgan, are you awake?” Remy’s voice was soft but urgent. “It’s Alice. She isn’t doing well. Dr. Jason asked if you could come.”

Alice had had another nightmare. She woke up at three in the morning and crawled under her bed, refusing to come out. She’d chewed on her own fingers until they were raw and bleeding.

“He’s here, he really came…” Alice whimpered. “I don’t want to come out, I don’t want to come out…”

No matter how the staff tried to comfort her, Alice stayed hidden under the bed. When Wiona arrived, the others were debating whether they should just move the bed out of the way.

“That won’t help,” Jason said. “It’ll just make her more scared. She needs someone she trusts to calm her down, so things don’t get worse.”

The staff stepped aside to let Wiona through. Jason gave her a quick explanation. “Ms. Morgan, there’s always been a monster in Alice’s mind. It’s part of her childhood trauma. Whenever she gets worse, she sees this monster and it pushes her to the edge. Last time, she saw him standing by the curtains, grinning at her, and she lost control and set the room on fire. Right now, you’re the only one who might be able to bring her out. If you can do that, it’ll mean a lot for her recovery.”
