After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back

Rina narrowed her eyes. "Are you threatening me?"

Aveline shook her head. "Isn't it you, Miss Johnson, who does the threatening?"

Rina let out a cold laugh. "Do you really think this will make me afraid of you?"

Aveline's expression shifted, and she rushed over, only to find Sidney's mother unconscious in the hospital room.

"Doctor! Doctor!"

Sidney's mother was rushed into the emergency room.

Sidney stood by the door, his posture slumped, his face noticeably paler than before.

Aveline stayed beside him, offering comfort. "She'll be alright."
