I Have Never Been Your First Choice novel Chapter 400

Chapter 400.

Reynald found out his mom went to the hospital to see Charlotte, so he questioned her in the ward, “Who told you to go see her!”

His shout almost reached the hallway.

Kiana froze, staring at him in disbelief, “Reynald, you… you yelled at your mom because of that woman?”

Maxwell heard a noise outside the hospital room and hurried in. “Reynald, talk to your mom nicely.”

Reynald rubbed his temples, his head was buzzing with pain.

But thinking of something, he calmed down a bit, lifted his eyelids, “Who exactly told you guys?”

The first time Kiana noticed her son acting strange, she just wondered if he was bewitched by that woman. “Does it matter who told us? I’m telling you, the Steward family would never let a woman like that in! Forget about it!”

The atmosphere went silent for a moment.

Kiana saw his sad face and suddenly froze. Did she say something too harsh?

Or was he actually serious about that woman?

“She wouldn’t step into the Steward family’s house.” Reynald gave a self–mocking smile, “Mrs. Hamilton, would you step into the Steward family’s house?”

Kiana was stunned.

Maxwell frowned, “What did

you say?”

“That woman was Jaxson’s wife? No way…” Kiana’s first reaction was disbelief.

Reynald smiled, “Believe it or not, maybe Jaxson would come looking soon.”

Before you knew it, Cynthia knocked on the door and walked in.

The Steward couple saw her, and that’s when they realized their son hadn’t lied…

The next day, as soon as Charlotte got to the hospital, Nigel called her into the office.

She pushed the door open, and there was a couple sitting inside.

She had met Mrs. Steward, so the middle–aged man with her must have been Reynald’s father.

Maxwell slowly got up, “Dr. Sutton, sorry, my wife was too impulsive yesterday. She came over without finding out what was going on first. Sorry for the trouble.”

Maxwell could let it go, which surprised Charlotte. He apologized sincerely, so of course she didn’t make things hard for him. “It’s okay.”

“Kiana, you still owed an apology.”

Nigel reminded.

Kiana choked for a second. Asking her to apologize to a junior was really hard for her, but…

She bit her lip, made up her mind, and said, “Sorry.”

Charlotte nodded.

Accepted the apology without any humility at all.

After the Steward family couple left, Charlotte looked at Nigel, “Thank you.”

“Thank me?” Nigel leaned back in his chair. “Then you thanked the wrong person. I wasn’t the one who made them apologize.”

Charlotte paused for a second. If it wasn’t him, then it was Jaxson.

She was just about to leave the office when Nigel suddenly called out to her, “Jaxson’s ex–girlfriend, was it that woman named Caroline Warren?”

She stopped, looked at him with confusion, “What’s wrong?”

Nigel spun his pen and said, “Nothing.”

Charlotte didn’t ask much and left, closing the door.

Caroline had already visited the Kendall’s manor three times, but it was always just the butler who received her.

None of the Kendall family showed up.

She sat in the living room like always. She could clearly feel the servants‘ eyes and gossip behind her. She clenched her hands and waited patiently for about twenty minutes, but still didn’t see anyone, so she got up and left.

And behind the floor–to–ceiling window on the second floor stood a middle–aged woman holding a wine glass. Her beautiful face was reflected on the glass, and she looked extremely cool and elegant.

“Was she here to see Nigel?”

“Seems like they came to see Mr. Nigel. They’ve already been here for three days,” the servant behind spoke.

“Did Nigel know?”

“Mr. Nigel knew, but he didn’t care.”

The woman held the stem of her glass with her nail–polished hand and gave it a little shake, “Go check her identity.”

“Okay, ma’am.”

Here, Cynthia pushed open Charlie’s bedroom door, walked up behind Jaxson, and said, “Mr. Hamilton, Reynald just left the house alone.”

Jaxson looked out the window, half–smiling, “Looks like he figured out who talked his mom into

it.”

Cynthia lowered her eyes, “You knew?”

His face fell, staring at a branch of the apricot tree outside the window, “No one else but her.”

“I found out she went to the Kendall’s manor these three days, but the Kendall family didn’t meet her.”

Jaxson stayed silent.

It took ten years from meeting Caroline to seeing her true colors.

But he never believed that someone like her had really risked her life to save him.

That memory…

It would be great if he could remember.

But I was afraid the person in that memory really was her.

If it really was her, then how was Charlotte supposed to explain it?

Reynald came to Caroline’s place.

After knocking, Caroline had just opened the door. When she saw who was standing there, her smile froze a little, “Why are you here…”

Reynald didn’t say a word and slapped her across the face.

She crashed into the shoe rack.

Same, looked at him angrily, “You hit me?”

“What did you say to my parents? What does my being in the hospital have to do with Charlotte, what rumors are you spreading?” Reynald grabbed her by the neck and pinned her against the shelf, the veins on the back of his hand popping out.

“I… cough cough, I did it for you too…”

“Shut up!” Reynald brushed her off.

She sat on the ground backwards, breathing hard, and when she saw him come closer, she trembled.

Reynald half–squatted in front of her, “Anyway, Jaxson already knows everything. If you keep pushing me, I don’t mind posting those bed photos of you online.”

“You…” Caroline’s face changed suddenly, “When did you take the photo?”
