My coldhearted ex demands a remarriage

Chapter 706:

The man’s credentials as a seasoned medical Ph.D. and heart specialist lent weight to his statement. His conclusion was not speculation; it was grounded in expertise.

Kristopher’s face darkened like a brewing storm.

Though the summer heat in Isonridge pressed heavily, an icy tension filled the car, chilling everyone inside.

His arm rested on the door’s armrest, his fingers drumming against it in a pattern that betrayed his internal conflict.

“Have you verified this?” he asked, his voice low and devoid of emotion, like the calm before a violent outburst.

The man nodded solemnly. “I’ve already forwarded the patient’s information to Mr. Murray. He’s cross-referencing it with the old medical records. It’s possible the records of the patient and Ms. Nash were mixed up during the documentation process.”

Oliver sat frozen, carefully observing Kristopher’s expression. He knew better than to speak now.

Kristopher was an expert at masking his emotions, but Oliver had seen the cracks before—especially when Carrie was involved.

If Lise wasn’t the recipient of Lisa’s heart, then the years Kristopher had spent disregarding Carrie’s comfort for Lise’s sake would become a cruel farce.

Everything Kristopher had sacrificed — his wife, his child — would be for someone who held no connection to him or his sister. The thought was unbearable. He felt sorry for his boss.

As Kristopher’s fingers abruptly stilled, Oliver noticed a glint in his eyes — a flicker of something cold and merciless.

A chill ran down his spine. That look was the same one Kristopher had worn the day he confronted Nate, though somehow even more lethal. Oliver realized, with grim certainty, that Lise was in grave danger.

Meanwhile, in Orkset, Lise stepped out of the Norris family’s estate, stifling a sneeze.

Shielding her eyes from the blazing sun, she frowned, wondering how she could catch a cold in such heat.

Elsewhere in Orkset,

Even after securing a job, Camille found herself restless. Sleep came in fragments, and by morning, she was already preparing to visit Ruby at the company. She needed updates on the progress in Orkset and wanted to share Carrie’s decision to relocate the business to Isonridge.

Orkset no longer held any meaningful ties for Carrie—it had become nothing more than a vault of painful memories. The move to Isonridge offered her not only a fresh start but also the safety of the Morrison family’s protection. For Camille, the thought of lingering in Orkset was equally unappealing. She had no desire to confront a family that viewed their children as mere pawns or to cross paths with Albin again.

This visit was an exception. She returned because she missed her brother and saw an opportunity to discuss the company’s future with Ruby.

As Camille headed to the company, she caught sight of Albin hurriedly getting into a car. Seated with him were a police officer and a man in a white coat, likely a doctor.
