Chapter 16
They didn’t care about me at all.
“I couldn’t help,” I said.
“Charlotte, he was your own brother-”
I couldn’t take it anymore. My emotions shattered.“Jaxson cheated, and he has a secret child. I, Mrs. Hamilton, am being forced aside! How do you expect me to go begging for his help now!”
Gustavo and Maggie froze.
Without waiting for them to react, I slammed the door and left.
Jaxson’s POV
As evening approached, I finished work and drove to the hospital. Passing Charlotte’s office, I paused.
I’d come to ask Charlotte if she had said anything to Grandma.
That’s just how it was..
“Mr. Hamilton, were you here to see Dr. Sutton?”
A passing nurse asked in surprise, “Jaxson, why so serious?”
I replied calmly, “I need to talk to Dr. Sutton about something.”
“Dr. Sutton has already left.”
I turned my head, lowering my voice.“She left?”
My brow furrowed.
Charlotte never left early.
“Jaxson!” Caroline ran towards us, beaming.“Have you finished the meeting?”
I squeezed out a grunt from my throat.
She glanced at Charlotte’s closed office door and grabbed my arm,
“Jaxson, are you here to see me? My office is not here!”
The nurse looked embarrassed.
Had she misunderstood?
Wasn’t Mr. Hamilton looking for Dr. Sutton, but for Ms. Warren?
I didn’t explain, pulling my hand out and asked. Haven’t you finished work yet?”
“Nope,” she leaned closer to me, looking like a sweet couple to others. “By the way, will you come with me to pick up Collin later?
I was about to say something when the phone rang.
Seeing “Charlotte” on the caller ID, I subtly curled my lips and walked aside to answer.
“Have you thought it through? Are you ready to apologize?
