The Day I Walked Away My Empire Began novel Chapter 116

Nurses and Rose rushed in.

“What happened to him?”

“He’s had a shock. Get the doctor, now!”

Within seconds, a medical team burst in and started emergency treatment.

“It’s his heart. We need to get him to surgery now!”

They wheeled Mr. Anderson away on a stretcher, leaving Lucie standing there, her heart breaking.

She’d agonized for so long about telling him the truth. She’d finally worked up the courage, and now this happened. Maybe she should have kept it from him. But if she had, and something happened to her, Grandpa would have left everything to Cody. And Cody wasn’t even family. He was the son of her husband and his mistress. Lucie would rather give it all to charity than let her enemy’s child inherit a cent.

Rose shot her a worried look. “Miss, your grandfather’s heart isn’t strong. You can’t tell him too much at once.”

Lucie didn’t answer. Tears streamed down her face as she silently begged for her grandfather to pull through.

This was it. There was no going back. She had to divorce Steven, no matter what. The court had refused her first petition, forcing her to wait six months before trying again for the same reason. So she needed a new reason.

Steven was keeping another woman abroad. Lucie would get enough proof to sue him for bigamy this time. With evidence, there was no way she’d lose.

“I need to make a call,” she said.

“Miss, you’re still not fully recovered. Let me help you.”
