Chapter 379 Divorce


    Mnie stood up, and followed the medical staff to the guest room on the first floor. The doctor had to treat Jeffrey''s wound, and


    outsiders weren''t allowed in.


    She stood outside anxiously. Very soon, all the bodyguards of Morgan Group were gathered outside, standing behind her and


    William while waiting for instructions.


    The butler was waiting outside, while the servants kept him constantly updated on the situation. Mnie could hear them saying


    that the attacker was a subordinate of Charles Miller, and that he hade to seek revenge on her...


    But she had no mental capacity to try to figure out what was going on: Her focus and attention were all turned to the door before


    her that was still tightly shut.


    Mnie finally heaved a sigh of relief when the doctor came out and informed them that Jeffrey wasn’t severely injured, and that


    his main artery wasn’t wounded. Jeffrey would be able to recover with some rest and recuperation.


    “Mrs William blurted out, almost making a mistake in front of outsiders. He quickly corrected himself and said, “Miss Jones,


    would you like to head in and see President Morgan?”


    Mnie nodded, and walked in with William.


    Jeffrey was lying quietly on the bed.


    “President Morgan was administered some painkillers, and he’s sleeping right now,” the doctor exined.


    “Thank you so much, Doctor,” William said.


    Mnie stood there, unmoving.


    The scene of the man charging toward her with a broken bottle aimed at her kept reying in her mind. The moment Jeffrey


    blocked her from the attack, all she could see was his back.


    So strong, firm and resolute in blocking her from all harm.


    She was moved.


    But the same issue remained. She was not sure whether he risked his life to block the attack for her, or for


    the heart inside her.


    The issue sounded foolish, but it was real to her.


    Having thought through all these, she walked up to Jeffrey and ced the bloodstained divorce papers on the bedside table. She


    was about to turn and leave, when William stopped her in shock.


    He asked, “Are you...not staying for a while longer?”


    “No, I’m not.” Mnie turned around. “When he wakes up, help me convey my thanks to him.”


    With that, she left the room without looking back.

    With the knot in her heart still stubbornly there, her rtionship with Jeffrey would only risk getting exposed if she were to


    overstay her presence. Although their rtionship was probably no secret to the intelligent Yorks, she wanted to still try and keep


    things under wraps before it became public.


    Not long after Mnie left the room, Jeffrey woke up. He looked around and disappointment filled his eyes after confirming that


    William was the only other person in the room.


    “President, we’ve thoroughly cleaned the entire room,” William said.


    “Where is she?” Jeffrey asked, when he immediately understood that William meant that there weren''t any surveince cameras


    in the room.


    “Mrs. Morgan left upon seeing that you were alright. She even said thank you.” William looked down, not daring to see Jeffrey’s


    forlorn eyes.


    “Did she...not say anything else?” Jeffrey muttered in disbelief.


    “Mrs. Morgan left that for you...” William pointed to the bedside table.


    Jeffrey looked at the bloodstained divorce papers, bbergasted.


    He gave her these papers with hisst ounce of strength before he passed out, with the intention of not giving her any way out.


    He didn’t expect her to return this to him before he regained consciousness!


    Did she still want the divorce?


    Jeffrey felt a sudden pain in his wound, so strong that he started doubting the reality of life.


    Mnie walked for a distance before bumping into the Yorks‘ butler. He showed some perfunctory concern for Jeffrey’s injury


    before mentioning that Leo was injured, too.


    At that time, Leo was the nearest to Mnie and was the first to fight against the attacker. Mnie seemed to recall that he had


    been shed by the ss bottle and copsed on the floor.


    “Is he alright?” Mnie asked out of concern.


    “Why don’t you go see him yourself?” the butler suggested.


    Every York was helping Leo pursue Mnie, and they weren’t giving up even though she and Jeffrey were still officially together.


    She was really curious as to why the Yorks fancied her so much.
