Beyond the Divorce

Chapter 749 Matthew's Suicide Attempt

Back at Pleca Park, I was almost asleep when a call from Adrian woke me up. I looked at the time. It was one past midnight, so this had to be urgent.

I quickly answered the phone, and Adrian, sounding uneasy, informed me, 'Ms. Chloe, Matthew has attempted suicide in the detention center."

"What?" I exclaimed. "What's going on?"

"He's been taken to the hospital for treatment. I'm on my way there now. You..." his tone was probing.

"Alright, I'm coming over immediately. Which hospital?' I asked while getting out of bed. I felt a slight tremor. Atlas was still in the study.

Adrian told me the name of the hospital over the phone, and I quickly hung up, rushing to the dressing room to grab a dress. After putting it on and tidying my hair hastily, I walked out of the room, knocking lightly on the study door. I pushed it open without waiting for a response.

Atlas was still on an international video call. He sensed that something was wrong when he saw me all dressed and ready to go. He ended the call, walked toward me, and asked, " What's happened?"

"I need to go to the hospital. Matthew attempted suicide in the detention center!" My tone was unsettled, and my legs felt shaky.
