No Divorce? The Billionaire's Love Chase! novel Chapter 37

When Claudia woke up the next morning, York was already gone.

She quickly got ready and headed to the hospital for work.

By throwing herself into her job and interacting with colleagues, she found the pain wasn't as sharp.

That evening, as she was leaving, she unexpectedly ran into Gideon Harvest, the senior colleague Dr. Moore had introduced her to.

"Hi, Gideon," she said with a polite nod.

He was dressed in a smart, casual style, with gold-rimmed, frameless glasses perched on his nose. He was handsome, with a gentle and courteous demeanor. "I heard you live on Lotus Avenue. I'm actually heading that way for an errand. Need a lift?"

Claudia quickly waved her hands. "Thanks, Gideon, but I drove."

Gideon was the man Dr. Moore had wanted her to meet—the youngest medical doctor in the Empire.

She'd heard the Harvest family was a medical dynasty with private hospitals in every country, and that Gideon, despite his youth, was heir to a billion-dollar fortune.

As Claudia walked out of the main clinic building, she saw York.

Just thinking about how concerned he looked last night, and that it was all for Ann, made her heart ache all over again.

He was here for Ann, of course.

A heavy feeling settled in her chest as she walked past him, maintaining a dignified composure.

Her threats last night about divorce and taking him down were just words spoken in the heat of the moment. Even if she didn't care about herself, she had to think of her parents and her younger brother.

York had her backed into a corner, and she knew it. All she could do was have these breakdowns when no one else was around.

York watched her walk past, then fell into step beside her without a word.

He took her wrist, pulling her to his side.

"Claudia," he said, "a fight is a fight. But don't forget you're still my wife."
