My ex-husband’s nightmare (Lydia and Mason) novel Chapter 47

Chapter 47

Lydia

“The doctor said it would be in two months,” I said, then shook my head to show that I couldn’t wait. I can’t wait for two months.

She picked my hand, “No, you won’t have to wait.” There was nothing she could do about this.

“I didn’t spend all that time trying to build my business. I have built connections worldwide, and the medical field is one of the many places I have connections. I didn’t pay for the less privileged medical expenses and made all those donations for nothing”

I tried to smile at the tone she used.

She had built hospitals, offered assistance, raised funds and all for the sick.

She is a kind woman. This woman gave birth to me.

She placed her hand on my face. “Do you trust me?” She asked, and I nodded.

“Then don’t flatter because of this. This shouldn’t be enough to make you bend.” She stated sternly.

“I know.” I inhaled a scent of breath.

“You just bagged a huge contract, but I haven’t seen the glow you always had when you hit a goal. It’s hurtful to watch you lose happiness in the things that mean most to you.”

But what can I do? The news had taken something away from me.

A transplant was not the end of the world. Melanie will survive, but the thought that my little girl had to go through this didn’t sit

well with me.

Even the news that I got the contract wasn’t enough to lift my mood.

“This revenge and everything will be meaningless if I lose my daughter,” I said.

“You won’t lose her.” She spoke immediately as though my words were a bad omen.

“Well, we comb through all the hospitals in the world; we can’t allow your happiness to die down.” She was right.

I had to keep a clear head.

Nothing will happen to Melanie.

“Will you be attending the party tomorrow?” She asked.

There’s a party to celebrate the contract I got. I had told Mia earlier that I wasn’t interested in the party.

“Maybe.”

Before she left my room, she placed a kiss on my forehead, and I felt like a little girl again, but this time, I wasn’t living it. orphanage alone.

I had someone beside me.

Chapter 47

My mother.

When I woke up at night and reached for the jug in my room, I sighed, discovering it was empty.

I had to go down to get water.

My hands moved the duvet from my body, and I sat straight. Sliding my feet into my slides, I stood and walked towards the door.

I yawned as I closed the door behind me, rubbing my sleepy eyes with the back of my

hand.

After getting water, I was walking past Mom’s study but paused when I heard her speaking on the phone.

Her door was slightly opened.

I moved closer. I knew it was wrong to eavesdrop, but I couldn’t stop myself.

Her voice was low. She was on call, but I could make out some words.

“She’s my granddaughter… yes… five years old…I sent her details already…. Of course… you know you owe me one…

I placed my hand over my mouth, stopping the whimper that threatened to escape.

Overwhelmed with so much emotion, I walked back into my room. My eyes were blurred from unshed tears.

I felt grateful.

Maybe my divorce with Mason wasn’t bad. Maybe Victoria was actually a blessing in disguise rather than a villain.

What was supposed to be the end of me opened a better door for me.

I do not want to admit, but she has some credit to take for reuniting me with my mother.

The next day, Mom woke me up with good news.

“She found three kidneys that are likely compatible with Melanie. They just have to carry out a few tests to pick the most suitable one,” She said.

But I could hear the unspoken words, “I told you that we’ll get over this. I told you that everything would be fine.”

Her news not only made my day but empowered me for the rest of the day.

Isang under my breath as I made food for Melanie and Liam.

I got dressed and left for the office, leaving the twins in Mom’s care, who had refused to leave their side.

Mia stepped into the office.

I raised my head from my laptop. She walked towards me and placed a cup of coffee on the table.

“Thank you.” she nodded and smiled.

“You seem to be in a good mood. I like seeing this side of you.” She said.

“Of course,

I stated.
