THE DIVORCE GAMBIT From Dumped Wife to CEO's Forever novel Chapter 681

The flight was a three-and-a-half-hour red-eye, departing at one in the morning with an estimated arrival time of four-thirty.

Caitlin drifted off in the plush, multifunctional massage chair. She wasn't sure how long she'd been asleep when her eyes fluttered open. "Dad, are we there yet?"

Stuart turned, tucking the blanket more snugly around his daughter. "It's only been an hour. Go back to sleep."

*Only an hour?*

A flicker of surprise crossed Caitlin's face. It felt like she'd been sleeping for ages.

"Aren't you going to sleep?" she asked.

"I just woke up myself," Stuart replied.

"Oh." Caitlin nodded slightly. "Well, I'm going back to sleep then."

"Go on."

As his daughter settled back into her slumber, Stuart gazed out the window, his expression unreadable. Memories of the past flooded his mind. Perhaps… perhaps Sage Gonzales had been wrong from the very beginning. The path Tammie Gonzales had walked, the tragic end he'd met—it was inextricably linked to his father.

Another two hours passed in the blink of an eye, and the plane touched down at The Capital Airport. The Gonzales family's private car was already waiting.

Stuart and Caitlin deplaned and were whisked away, heading straight for The Capital Hospital.

It was five in the morning on an early summer day, and the sky was already beginning to lighten.

"Faster," Stuart urged the driver, his voice tight with anxiety. "We need to go faster."

"Yes, sir."

At 5:20 a.m., the car pulled up to The Capital Hospital.
