My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back - Chapter 302

Chapter 302: Lucas Donovan Is Furious!
The hospital staff sitting behind the reception desk, with short black hair and glasses, greeted Lucas Donovan in a friendly manner.

“Good morning, sir. How may I help you?”

“Morning. I need to trouble you to check something for me.”

“Yes, please,” the staff answered.

“I just landed in this city and received a call that my wife is being treated in this hospital. But I don’t know her room number. Can you help me check it?” Lucas asked in a friendly voice, followed by a polite smile.

“Sure, sir…” The hospital staff returned Lucas’ friendly smile as she typed something on the keyboard, her eyes fixed on the computer screen before her. She asked, “Sir, may I know your wife’s name?”

“Natalie Wright—”

The hospital staff typed Natalie’s name, but then her expression changed. She seemed confused, as there was no Natalie Wright in the system.

She looked at Lucas Donovan and said, “Sir, can you spell your wife’s name again? I might have typed it wrong because I can’t find her name.”

The result was still the same when she typed after hearing Lucas Donovan spell Natalie’s name.

‘Did this man come to the wrong hospital?’ she wondered.

“Is there a problem?” Lucas Donovan asked when he saw the hospital staff’s confused expression and didn’t say anything; it seemed she was having difficulty finding something.

“Sir, there’s no patient with the name Natalie Wright.”

“Are you sure? My wife texted me; she said she was admitted to this hospital. But when I called her back, her phone was inactive,” Lucas Donovan said, pretending to be worried. Then, he leaned closer to the man beside him. “Are you sure my wife is here?” he whispered.

“Master, Ms. Wright is admitted to the VIP facility,” the man whispered back.

Lucas was surprised to hear that. How could Natalie get VIP access in this hospital? Did she know someone here?

After a few more seconds of trying to remember if his wife knew anyone close enough for them to help her, he couldn’t think of anyone except the Sinclair family. But it’s unlikely that Natalie would receive any special treatment from them, right?

He set aside his curiosity and refocused on the hospital staff.

“Miss, can you check your VIP patient? My wife might be admitted there,” Lucas asked again.

The staff nodded at him but said nothing. Then, she looked at her monitor and typed Natalie’s name. It didn’t take long; what she saw surprised her. She saw the name Natalie Wright, but the information about her was still limited.

She couldn’t access the patient’s data and room number. She only knew Natalie Wright had been admitted to their hospital and that the person’s status was already checked out.

“Sir, your wife was admitted to our hospital as a VIP patient, but she checked out an hour ago.”

Lucas Donovan’s shoulders dropped at hearing that.

‘That bitch checked out!? Did she know I found her?’ He left the hospital in anger.

***

Meanwhile, in a private jet and at the exact moment when Lucas Donovan was told his wife had already left the hospital,

Bella sipped her warm latte while looking at her mother sitting across from her.

Her mother seemed so relaxed after they left East City; she was no longer as scared as when they left the hospital early this morning.

Seeing her mother sleeping soundly, Bella felt at ease. At least her mother was safe now, and she would no longer have to deal with her evil husband.

Speaking about her father, Bella received information from a Sentinel Network member whom she assigned to follow her father before their boarding.

The person told her that her father was making a scene at the hospital. And because they had already checked out, her father angrily headed to Aunt Emma’s house.

Now, Bella is worried about her aunt. She hoped that Aunt Emma could overcome her father’s anger.

Sigh!

Just before Bella decided to rest her eyes before landing, she suddenly heard her mother calling her name. She opened her eyes and met her mother’s worried gaze.

Bella adjusted her seat and asked, “Why do you look worried again, Mom? I promised you, from now on, my evil father will have no chance to hurt you. Instead, I will make sure he suffers until the end of his life.”

She lost respect for her father when she learned he arranged her marriage to an old man like Bradley Caville. Since then, she has vowed to cut ties with him.

“So, please, no need to fear him any longer!” Bella continued.

Natalie laughed a little at her daughter’s words, then shook her head slowly.

“Bella, I’m not worried about that bastard. But I’m worried about your mother-in-law. Has your relationship improved with her?”

Since last night, Natalie has wanted to ask Bella about this matter, but she was too tired; she couldn’t hold back her sleepiness. For the first time, she slept soundly without any fear of her husband.

When they woke up this morning, they didn’t have time to chat because Bella had arranged their checkout faster than she knew.

“Don’t worry about that woman, Mom. Jessica Sinclair won’t be able to bother me this time.”

“What do you mean, Bella?”

“My grudge against them is still there, Mom. So, since I returned to this country, Jessica and William Sinclair haven’t seen me, nor have they seen my son. Well, I won’t give them a chance to meet Dax. Not anytime sooner…” Bella said, faintly smiling as she saw her mother gasping.

Natalie was surprised to hear that Jessica and William Sinclair had not entirely accepted her daughter despite Bella finally giving birth to Sinclair’s heirs.

“But, Bella, it would be troublesome if I lived with you. They might see me at your house if you still live in the same complex as your in-laws, right?”

“No, Mom. We live in different places. In safe places, even my in-laws don’t have access to our location,” Bella explained.

Hearing Bella’s explanation, Natalie immediately felt relieved. Deep inside, she didn’t want her daughter to experience the same treatment she had before from her in-laws.

Natalie Wright also holds a grudge toward Jessica Sinclair. She will never forget how that woman humiliated her five years ago when Bella and Tristan separated.
