Game Over, Mr. CEO: Your Wife Is Done (Winter and Chris) novel Chapter 327

The fighting in the hallway was getting louder by the second.

The thought that Chris had abandoned her sent such a violent wave of emotion through Skyla that even her fingers began to shake. She had to clutch the blanket tightly just to force herself to stay calm.

The most urgent thing now was getting out.

Up until now, she hadn’t only had Chris’s people around her, but her own as well. They had been protecting her since her time overseas. Their identities had been scrubbed so clean that not even Chris had been able to trace

them.

“Bring me the wheelchair.”

Her gaze swept over the caregiver, who had gone pale with fear.

Useless idiot. She had actually dared keep this from her.

The caregiver flinched and stammered, “O–Okay, Ms. Jasper.”

She stumbled toward the wheelchair while Skyla pulled out her phone and called Victor.

“I’m at the Xander family hospital.”

Victor had been jolted awake by the call and was already in a foul mood. The moment he heard her voice, his tone turned cold. “What now? You expect me to come see you?”

A flash of malice crossed her face. “If you don’t want your dirty little secrets getting out, send people to help me. Now.”

That woke him up fast.

Not long ago, he had wanted an introduction to Chris so he could secure a partnership on Xander Corporation’s newest major project. By his estimate, it was a deal worth a fortune and a once–in–a–lifetime opportunity. He had told Skyla to make it happen, but the little bitch had failed him.

He had threatened to destroy her mother’s ashes and grave, and she had threatened him right back with what he had done years ago, including handing her mother over to another man.

If she hadn’t once taken the hit for Chris in that car accident, and if she didn’t still have some value because of that, Victor would have strangled her long ago.

So much for all the flattering rumors. To Chris, she was nothing. She had never brought Victor any real benefit.

She was useless, just like her dead mother.

The mere thought of her mother filled him with humiliation. Those secrets could never be allowed to get out.

“If you don’t want to die, get me out of here.”

Zion got the call and rushed over from Westbay to help.

But the second he reached the hospital’s side entrance, several black cars pulled in and cut him off.

He shoved open the car door and got out, only to see Gavin stepping out of one of the vehicles across from him.

Zion cursed under his breath. “What the hell do you want now?”

They had just fought at Westbay, and now this guy had shown up again. Was he seriously not going to let up?

Just like Chris. The man always seemed to appear the second he got wind of something.

Under the dim lights, Gavin started toward him one step at a time.

Zion immediately went on alert. “I’m warning you. Once G is healed up, you’re done.”

Last time had to be because they had ganged up on him. There was no way Roy would have lost like that in a fair one–on–one fight.
