Chapter 236
Before Rosalind could finish her sentence, Vincent grabbed her hair and bumped into the window.
Being a man, how could he allow his wife to say that he was infertile? How could he bear this
humiliation?
Rosalind winced in pain when her head hit the glass. She felt a warm liquid flowing down her forehead.
She held her head in both hands. She knew he was a bastard, but she didn't expect him to hurt her.
Ever since they married, she had never done anything wrong to him. She only wanted to run their
marriage well. But he didn't cherish it.
Rosalind was dizzy, and she couldn't see Vincent's face clearly. She squinted at him. "Vincent, I'm
giving you a chance. You'll regret what you did to me."
Slap!
Vincent slapped Rosalind, "I don't need your chance. You can't have a child yourself. How dare you
frame me?!"
Vincent felt that Rosalind had humiliated him deeply.
Rosalind's face was burning with pain. She had persisted for so long but still did not wait for him to
change his mind. At this moment, she was disappointed. She raised her hand to wipe the blood from
the corner of her lips and looked up at Vincent, "Let's divorce."
Vincent gritted his teeth and grabbed Rosalind's collar, shouting at her, "Don't think about it!"
Even if she wanted to divorce, it couldn't be at this time. He was about to run for office. The news of the
divorce would have a bad impact on him.
He wouldn't be so stupid. At this time, Vincent became angrier with Rosalind as she didn't support him
and made trouble for him.
Rosalind had always felt guilty about being infertile. She had indulged him outside in seeking carnal
pleasure, but she didn't get any sincerity from him.
Rosalind was heartbroken as if what she insisted on and her guilty was like a joke.
Rosalind wanted to laugh at her stupidity when she looked at her husband but she couldn't. "Vincent,
you'd better let go of me. I will not guarantee what I will do to ruin your career."
Vincent pushed Rosalind away with all his strength. He was too strong that Rosalind's head hit the
window again. Rosalind was knocked unconscious. He was afraid of being found out and didn't take
Rosalind to the hospital. Instead, he drove home.
In the evening, Arya returned to the hospital from the company and walked into the ward. The doctor NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
was examining Xavier. Arya walked in slowly and looked at the doctor and asked, "How is he?"
The doctor wrote down the records on the case and then looked up at Arya. "The wound is recovering
well."
It was still the same answer.
Arya stood quietly on the bed. Suddenly, she shouted, "Xavier, wake up and look at me!"
Xavier's hand under the quilt moved slightly. Subconsciously, he could feel someone calling him,
wanting to respond, but his body did not listen to him.
He could only quietly feel the suppressed pain of the person who called him.
Arya's eyes were a little blurry. She lay down on the bed and looked at his tightly closed eyes. She was
very disappointed and reached out to caress him. "Do you know that I miss you? I miss you very
much."
She wanted to talk to him and see what he would do when he knew she was pregnant.
Arya buried her head in his arms and her shoulders moved slightly. She didn't want to cry, but she
didn't hold back.
The room was quiet except for the faint sobbing and the ticking of the second hand...
Xavier's closed eyes moved slightly and again after a while. This time, they moved more violently than
the last time, and his eyes slowly opened eventually. Because he hadn't seen light for a long time, it
was too bright to open his eyes. He closed his eyes gently and tried to open them again after a while.
After a few repetitions, his eyes adapted to the light.
Everything in the room came into view. He wanted to move and found that he couldn't move at all. He
turned around and saw the woman lying in his arms. There were tears in the corner of her eyes. He
was heartbroken and wanted to touch her, but his hands couldn't move.
He lowered his eyes gently and saw her lower abdomen. His eyes became unusually soft. In just a few
seconds, his eyes closed again, as if he had never woken up.
Arya didn't know when she fell asleep in Xavier's arms. She was sound asleep and hadn't slept like this
in a long time...
It was getting dark, and Arya slowly woke up. She slept well this time. She looked up at Xavier who
was still with his eyes closed. She raised her head and kissed him before getting out of bed.
In the evening, Jacob came to deliver dinner. He happened to have something to say to Arya and
asked Daisy to stay in the villa to rest.
Arya sat and ate dinner. Jacob stood in front of the bed, watching Xavier lying on the bed, then he
asked. "What did the doctor say? Is there no hope?"
Arya's hand with the spoon stiffened for a few seconds and said slowly, "I believe he will wake up
sooner or later."
No matter what the doctor said, she firmly believed that he would wake up one day. She didn't believe
that he would have left her and Ryan.
This was obviously not a good topic. Jacob changed the subject. "Tomorrow is Vincent's election day.
He also chose to buy the D&C Inc tomorrow."
Arya finished her last mouthful of soup, put down the bowl, and looked up at Jacob. "We're waiting for
this day, aren't we?"
Jacob was silent. They wanted to give Terrence a hard blow when he thought he was successful.
"You go and take a rest, I'll take care of him." Jacob said worriedly.
"No." When she was not at the company, she was always by his side. She hoped that the first person
that Xavier saw when he woke up was her.
Jacob agreed, took the thermos box, and left the room.
Arya went to the bathroom to get warm water to wipe Xavier's face and hands. Xavier's hand moved
slightly, but she still found out. Suppressing her excitement, she called his name softly. "Xavier, can you
hear me?"
It seemed that the moment was an illusion. No matter how Arya called his name, he did not respond.
Arya held his hand and lowered her eyes. 'Do I miss him too much so that I begin hallucinating?'
Just as she lowered her eyes, she missed Xavier's eyelashes gently fluttering. When he heard her call
him, he wanted to open his eyes, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't open them.
The next day, the seemingly calm W City was in fact turbulent.
The case of Terrence's acquisition of D&C Inc began. All the assessments of the D&C Inc were
finished. Terrence asked the Risk Management Department to control the share price of the company.
He wanted to buy the company at the lowest price.
He had done a lot of preparation before, so it was easy to do now. The first fund had been invested,
and Terrence was excited. He had been waiting for many years, so he wanted to have his own status in
W City. When he took over the D&C Inc, the company would gain huge benefits and he would officially
rename the Jones Group.
Vincent was at the last minute of the election today. The venue was solemn and everyone was very
serious because the person elected today would be the president of the supreme court of W City. He
must have professional ethics to ensure judicial justice, improve judicial efficiency, maintain integrity,
and abide by judicial etiquette. Self-cultivation and restraint of extracurricular activities were all needed
as a president.
Vincent was not the only candidate. He had a strong opponent and was very popular in W City. He had
been convicted of several important cases and was recognized as impartial. In the last video incident,
Vincent was deliberately directed at someone, which had brought him some trouble.
Behind the scenes, Rosalind wore large sunglasses and a mask on her face. She didn't want to be
recognized. She walked into Vincent's lounge. When Vincent saw Rosalind coming, his face
immediately turned gloomy. He dismissed the people who were talking. He was sure that everyone was
leaving and closed the door.
He turned to look at Rosalind and scolded her in a low voice, "What are you doing here?"
