From His Ex-Wife to the World's Most Sought-After Restorer (Jade and Hudson) novel Chapter 35

Chapter 35 A Sudden Crisis

Rosa nodded eagerly.

“Yes, Ma’am.”

The next morning.

When Jade came downstairs for breakfast, Rosa mentioned the doctor’s appointment. Jade couldn’t help but frown.

She had made it crystal clear to Emily last night that she was divorcing Hudson.

fet, Emily completely ignored her and was now arranging a doctor to ensure she got pregnant.

No one in this house takes a single word I say seriously.

Jade took a deep breath, her grip on her fork tightening.

‘I’m perfectly healthy. I don’t need to see a doctor.”

Rosa hadn’t expected Jade to refuse and looked slightly awkward.

‘Mrs. Walter, this was arranged by the madam.”

Amara, who was also sitting at the dining table, chimed in with a sour tone.

‘Jade, Emily is just trying to be nice. If she heard you say that, she’d be heartbroken.”

Jade fell silent, numbly eating her clam chowder.

Seeing a doctor meant getting her body checked. How was she supposed to hide her pregnancy then?

Before Jade left for work, Rosa gave her a pointed reminder.

‘The doctor is coming this afternoon, Mrs. Walter. Please come back early, or I won’t be able to explain it to the madam.”

“Got it,” Jade replied softly.

After Jade drove off, Amara continued to eat her breakfast at a leisurely pace. Watching Rosa bustle around the kitchen, she pretended to make casual conversation while secretly probing for information.

“Rosa, does Emily usually call doctors over for Jade like this?”

Rosa replied offhandedly.

“Yeah.”

Amara’s grip on her spoon tightened invisibly.

“It seems Emily is very satisfied with her daughter-in-law.”

Everyone knew that Jade, a nobody from a modest family, used a past favor to force her way into a marriage with Hudson just for the Walter family’s wealth and status.

Emily had always despised people like that.

It was genuinely surprising to see her treating Jade so well now.

Sensing something off about Amara’s tone, Rosa gave an ambiguous answer.

“Mrs. Walter is her daughter-in-law. When family lives together, you naturally look out for one another. It’s not about being satisfied or not.”

Amara forced a strained smile and lowered her head to eat her chowder, hiding the dark gleam that flashed in her eyes.

She thought that because Jade had blackmailed Hudson into marriage, everyone in the Walter family resented her, making it a walk in the park to kick Jade out of the picture.

But reality was turning out to be very different.

She needed to come up with a solid plan to steal the title of Mrs. Walter and make Hudson the ultimate protector for her and Cortney.

Memoria Script Studio.

Jade’s mind was completely consumed by the impending doctor’s visit, making her distracted at work.

“You fixed that part wrong.”

A voice suddenly broke the silence. Startled, Jade jerked her head up and met Anthony’s gaze. Glancing back down, she realized he was right. She had botched the restoration.

Frustrated with herself, she stood up from her chair.

“I’m so sorry. I’ll fix it right away.”

Anthony took a seat across from her.

“You’ve been spaced out all day. Are you dealing with some trouble?”

Jade swiftly corrected her mistake on the antique document, letting out a helpless sigh.

“Yeah, something came up…”

Watching her expert hands perfectly restore the error, a hint of satisfaction flashed in Anthony’s eyes.

“We haven’t taken on many commissions lately. Since your head isn’t in the game, why don’t you take the day off?”

“Thanks for understanding, Mr. Mitchell…”

Jade mumbled, slumping over the desk and rubbing her aching lower back.

“But I’d rather stay at the studio today.”

Anthony didn’t push it.

“Up to you. If you want to rest, just head home.”

“Okay.”

Jade watched Anthony leave. Just as she looked away, her phone screen lit up on the desk.

Glancing at the caller ID, she saw it was Robert.

She hesitated for a moment before finally swiping to answer.
