No Divorce? The Billionaire's Love Chase! novel Chapter 420

Claudia corrected Gideon. "York wasn't being foolish, nor was he momentarily blinded. He was clear-headed the entire time."

Seeing Gideon's confused expression, Claudia explained in a detached tone, "He was confident because I loved him too much. That's why he felt he could get away with anything."

He was certain she loved him, that she couldn't live without him. That's why he believed that no matter what he did, she would forgive him.

"Gideon," Claudia said, "I just want to throw myself completely into my career. The only thing I love right now is money."

This failed marriage had taught her a valuable lesson: relationships were an option in life, not a requirement. She could be perfectly whole all on her own.

Gideon gave her an appreciative look. "Take a few days off to rest. Then you can start preparing the material for the public health segment in September."

It was the first time he had seen such decisive strength in a woman who knew exactly when to cut her losses.

Claudia left Gideon's office and went straight to the outpatient clinic.

Around eleven that morning, Hugh Ferguson brought Hawley in for a follow-up appointment. Afterwards, Hawley clung to Claudia's side, refusing to leave.

Hugh, afraid his son would disturb her work, said, "Dr. Watkins, if you don't have plans for lunch, Hawley and I can go to the restaurant first and wait for you."

Claudia had something she wanted to discuss with Hugh anyway, so she readily agreed.

After her shift ended, Claudia went to the restaurant. While they were waiting for their food, Hugh stepped out to take a call.
