The CEO’s Ex-Wife Is A Famous Doctor By LiLhyz Chapter 53

Chapter 53: The Video Call

Evan: [Good morning. Hope you had some rest. Mother says hi, and she misses you.]

Shantelle read Evan’s message. It

included a picture of Clara and Erick having breakfast at the old Thompsons’ mansion. It made her smile, thinking

how many times she had spent at the

same house.

She typed her reply: [Please tell Uncle and Aunt I miss them too. Thank you for the photo.]

After sending the text, Shantelle returned to reviewing a patient’s file. However, just when she was in the middle of doing so, another message came through.

Evan: [Someone else misses you.]

Reading the message, Shantelle blinked

once and then twice. She stared at the

phone for seconds, speculating about the person’s identity. Is this really Evan? It wasn’t in his character.

“Doctor Shant, I know you did not have breakfast yet, so the boss told me to get one for you,” Miguel walked into her office, interrupting her train of thought. He presented a clear food package containing buttermilk pancakes with whipped cream.

Shantelle could not believe her eyes. The package had the Century Hotel logo, meaning Miguel had driven an hour away to get the pancakes.

Alright, she had to admit. Evan knew her well. After all, they had known each other since they were young. Every treat he had given her so far was on point. However, the pancake was a new addition to her guilty pleasure. She rarely ate pancakes in Rose Hills, so how did he know about the

Century Hotel hotcakes?

A mystery. Despite the unknown, Shantelle thanked Miguel for going to lengths for her breakfast.

Four days had passed since Evan left Warlington. So far, she had encountered no threat. Still, Andy, her head of security, thoroughly ensured her daily

route.

Shantelle no longer arrived and left at the hospital driveway. Her car drove into a guarded route meant only for the ambulance’s entry. The hospital had

other entries that were only meant for the staff or for suppliers to go through. The administration willingly gave Shantelle access after the motorbike incident.
