Mr Melendez Your Wife Wants Divorce Long Ago novel Chapter 34

Chapter 34

Arabella’s face remained expressionless, her tone cool and detached. “Ms. Carrillo, here in Zelmere, having Jayceon as your friend is worth more than a thousand others. You really shouldn’t waste your energy trying to impress me.”

She turned, ready to walk away, but Georgina suddenly grabbed her arm. “No, Dr. Palmer, you’re completely misunderstanding the nature of my relationship with Jay.”

Annoyed, Arabella yanked her arm free with a sharp shake.

In the very next instant, Georgina collapsed onto the floor with a heavy thud.

People nearby quickly gathered, murmuring in concern.

“Gina!” Jayceon’s voice broke through the crowd as he hurried over, medical bills clutched tightly in his hand. Kneeling beside her, he anxiously examined Georgina.

Tears welled up in Georgina’s eyes, a mixture of pain and regret as she clutched her injured knee. “Jay, I just wanted to apologize to Dr. Palmer. I didn’t expect her to be so angry…”

Without hesitation, in full view of everyone, Jayceon lifted Georgina gently into his arms.

Turning his gaze icy and sharp, he fixed Arabella with a glare. “You call yourself a doctor? Gina’s health is fragile. How could you push her like that?”

Arabella didn’t offer any explanation.

It all felt surreal to her—like a scene ripped straight from some absurd novel. She never imagined she’d find herself in such a situation.

Her eyes locked onto Georgina, cradled in Jayceon’s arms.

Her voice was cold and void of warmth as she issued a warning. “Jayceon, your woman was the one who came looking for trouble, throwing herself in my path. Pushing her was the kindest thing I did. Honestly, I should have slapped her to show her who really holds the power here.”

Noticing the puzzled looks from the onlookers, Georgina quickly spoke up, trying to shift the focus. “Jay, my leg really hurts. Please, take me back to my room.”

Without another word, Jayceon turned and carried her away.

A colleague standing next to Arabella couldn’t contain their curiosity any longer. “Arabella, who were those people? Were they… lovers? Why did they treat you like that?”

Arabella fought to steady her shattered composure. Her voice was low and matter-of-fact as she answered, “They’re husband and wife.”

A few steps away, Jayceon overheard her words and froze in place.

He turned back around, still holding Georgina, and stared at Arabella’s retreating figure.

Lately, Arabella had been upset with him because of Georgina. But he never expected her to reveal to others so calmly that he and Georgina were married.

Georgina caught Jayceon’s reaction from the corner of her eye.

Though he appeared composed on the surface, she sensed his body tense with unease.

“Jay?” she called softly.

Jayceon’s face darkened, his expression turning icy and unforgiving.

Samuel added, “She says she’s had a terrible six years and did it all for you. But have you asked Chester to verify any of Georgina’s stories?”

Jayceon replied quietly, “I know my grandfather. He’s capable of things like that. It’s just how he operates.”

Georgina feared Chester deeply.

If Jayceon confronted Chester and Chester retaliated against Georgina and Leandro behind his back, Jayceon knew he’d never forgive himself.

Samuel, unconvinced, pressed further. “Fine. But at least admit Georgina came back this time because she’s after you, right?”

Jayceon shot back sharply, “Don’t complicate things for Gina. Our relationship ended a long time ago.”

Samuel stared at him in disbelief. “You know whatever you had with her is in the past, and yet you’re keeping her and her child? You’re going to be a stepdad now?”

Jayceon’s face darkened further.

Samuel scoffed. “Don’t tell me you still regret not being with her six years ago and want to finish what you started?”

Jayceon gave him a warning glare. “Nothing will ever happen between her and me.”
