Unexpected Blessing After Divorce

Chapter 244

Chapter 244 Discussion

Yuliana was silent for a moment as she looked into his eyes. Initially, she wanted to brush it off. However, she did not expect Christopher to guess it so quickly. She did not even have a chance to react.

She lowered her eyes and answered softly, “Yes.”

Christopher looked at her eyelashes, which were trembling slightly, and asked, “Why did he come?”

Yuliana frowned slightly. She turned around and put the flowers back into the vase as she responded, “Nothing. He just came to visit me.”

Christopher chuckled, and then the expression on his face became cold. “I didn’t even know that the relationship between ex-wife and ex-husband can be so harmonious. You gave birth to my son, and he came to visit you.”

His tone was flat, and one could not tell his emotions.

However, Yuliana felt that he was unhappy. She arranged the flowers, turned around, looked at him for a moment, and said, “Christopher, I have something to discuss with you.”

Christopher did not speak immediately, but his gray eyes were fixed on her.

After a while, he asked, “What is it?”

Yuliana paused for another two seconds and said, “I don’t want to pursue the matter further.”

Christopher looked calm and asked in a low voice, “Why?”

Yuliana almost did not dare to look into his eyes. However, she made herself meet his eyes and said, “I owe Harry a favor. I’ll pay him back this time, okay?”

After saying that, Christopher’s eyes gradually turned colder and colder, and finally, it seemed as if a thick layer of ice had formed in his eyes.

Christopher remained silent for a long time.

His stare made Yuliana anxious, and she pursed her lips harder.

She was afraid that Christopher would ask her about the favor she owed Harry. She did not know how to make up another excuse.

It was as if the time in the ward had stopped. They looked at each other silently for a while until Hailey’s voice sounded when the door was opened. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

“Mr. Solace, you’re back.”

Both of them retracted their gazes simultaneously, and the atmosphere in the room returned to normal. Christopher nonchalantly greeted Hailey, then walked to a chair and sat about two or three steps away from the bed. Yuliana went to her bed and picked up the book next to her.

Hailey glanced at them and then realized something was wrong.

In the past few days, both of them were extremely affectionate to each other. It was to the point where Hailey felt she was an eyesore. Hence, she would stay outside the ward as much as possible when she had nothing

to do.

“I only went out for a while. How come they argued with each other?” Although Hailey was muttering in her heart, she knew her position. She would never ask anything she should not ask.

Yuliana would be discharged from the hospital the following morning. Hence, Hailey walked in and out to pack her things. Although Yuliana only stayed in the hospital for a few days, there were quite some miscellaneous items, so Hailey packed the items that Yuliana did not use.

Christopher and Yuliana sat on the opposite side. One of them was reading while the other was staring out the window with an icy expression.

Yuliana could not focus at all. She held the book in her hand and felt like the words on the pages had blended and formed a dark-colored ball. She did not turn a page for a long time and could not help but glance at the man sitting on the chair from the corner of her eye.

She felt as if there were silk threads entwining tightly in her heart. She wanted to untangle it, but the harder she tried, the tighter they tangied.

The next morning. Yuliana finally saw Rowan, who was six days old, through the glass.

She had not realized it when she looked at him through the phone, but now that she saw him in person, she realized he was extremely tiny, only almost the size of two of her palms.

Yuliana did not know how to describe her feelings. It was quite a strange feeling.

It felt strange, yet familiar.

Rowan was her and Christopher’s baby. Their blood was in his body, and he would grow from such a tiny baby to an adult like Christopher or her.

In the future, he would call her “Mommy.”

Yuliana’s eyes brimmed with tears, but she did not dare to cry. She did not want her vision to become blurry, making her unable to see Rowan’s face clearly.

There was a time limit for visitation. It was only a few minutes, and she did not want to waste even a second. As soon as the visitation time reached its limit, the nurses came over to urge them to leave.

When Yuliana came out of the ICU, she let her tears fall. She lay on Christopher’s shoulder and could not control her emotions. She had cried so much these days, and it almost felt like she had used up the tears for her whole life.

Christopher gently patted her frail back, comforting her softly, “Don’t cry. We’ll pick him up when he recovers. By then, you can see him at home every day.”

Yuliana calmed down, and they went back to the ward.

After the discharge procedures were done, Christopher took Yuliana and Hailey back to Oceanview Apartment.

On the third day after Yuliana was discharged from the hospital, the two men who attempted to take advantage of Yuliana that night retracted their confessions, denied all their previous testimonies, and disclosed that Margaret had nothing to do with everything. Both of them took full responsibility for what had happened.

They said they had a grudge against Margaret. Hence, they deliberately made things up to take revenge on her.

The police did not wholly believe their testimony. However, Margaret suddenly fell sick and applied for medical bail. Gerald, who was in charge of the case, initially rejected her application, but his superior issued an order and let Margaret out of the detention center the same day.

After that, the police verified the testimony of the two men and confirmed that they did have a dispute with Margaret.

During the second half of the previous year, Margaret and her friends went to a club, and the two men served Margaret at that time. For some reason, Margaret got into a serious argument with them.

The club owner was afraid of offending the guests, so he asked the two men to apologize to her. However, Margaret was so angry that time that she insisted they kneel in front of her.

To keep their job, the two men knelt and apologized to Margaret.

However, they had always wanted to take revenge on Margaret, so they investigated her privately. They set her up after knowing she did not get along with Yuliana.

About two weeks later, the two kidnappers who kidnapped Yuliana were also arrested. The testimony of the two kidnappers matched the testimony of the two men, and all kinds of evidence proved that it had nothing to do with Margaret.

As a result, Margaret was completely disassociated from the case.

However, less than a week after Margaret left the detention center, she had a dispute with someone. She beat a person up and caused that person to be seriously injured. Hence, she was sent to the detention center again The victim refused to accept any compensation and wanted Margaret to be put in jail.

Besides, someone recorded Margaret when she was beating up the victim and uploaded the video online. Shortly after, Margaret’s past was also exposed. Her arrogant and rude behavior angered the public. The impact of the incident was so bad that it would be useless even if the Ziegler family wanted to help. Rowan stayed in the incubator for seven weeks before his vital signs returned to normal. He was finally discharged and could go home.
