After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back

Daisy's stance was unyielding, leaving Jolie no room to argue. She took her straight back to the Quin family home and even confiscated her phone. Meanwhile, just half an hour after they left, Selena arrived at the hospital. Noticing the empty room, she froze for a moment before grabbing a nearby nurse. "Excuse me, where is the patient from this room?" Selena asked.
