Wiona didn’t bother looking back after her sarcastic jab. With Nikolai and Drake flanking her, she strode straight into the hospital.
Kellen stood there, pale with anger, hands gesturing wildly as if she could claw the air.
“What did she just say?”
“How can she talk to me like that? Who is she to insult Jace?”
“Seriously, who does Wiona think she is?”
She was still fuming when Drake, who hadn’t gone far, turned and shot her a glare. Kellen clamped her mouth shut right away. For a second, she was actually scared. But then she caught herself. Why was she acting like this?
They were just bodyguards. Just two big, tough guys with scary faces. Why was she letting them intimidate her?
She was carrying a Salisbury heir, after all. Did she really need to be afraid of Wiona?
She was now carrying her own child. And Wiona was just a stand-in, just a tool, just someone who had played surrogate. Why should she feel guilty?
Kellen’s face twisted with anger. Still, she only dared to let out her frustration once Wiona and her bodyguards had disappeared from view. “What a stupid bitch. What’s she showing off for?”
“The divorce was barely finalized and she’s already surrounded by two hunks. Like she’s any better?”
Her words were so crude that Isaac, standing next to her, couldn’t help frowning.
Isaac’s eyes filled with contempt. Next to Wiona, who always held herself with such poise and had been raised with the best education, Kellen just seemed so... cheap.
Just look at Wiona. No matter what happened, she never lost her cool. She handled any situation with this calm confidence that was honestly impressive. She would never stoop to Kellen’s kind of cursing. Even her insults had class.
If Kellen wasn’t still useful, Isaac would feel disgusted just being near her. He honestly didn’t get what Jace ever saw in her. Giving up Wiona for Kellen? Unbelievable.
Isaac rolled his eyes in his mind, then started walking. “Come on. Don’t forget why we’re here.”
“This is your chance to prove yourself. Shouldn’t you be waiting outside the operating room?”
“And if Wiona isn’t here for my brother, we can figure out what she’s really doing at the hospital.”
He glanced at Kellen. “Didn’t you want to get rid of the baby she’s carrying? You can’t just wait for the perfect moment to drop into your lap. You have to make your own chances.”
Isaac brought up the topic on purpose, watching as Kellen’s expression turned dark and mean. He couldn’t help but smirk.
Women like her were so easy to control.
