Billionaire Ex-wife: I Can't Live Without You

Once they reached the guest room, Kyson guided her to the bed.

He clenched his fists tightly before letting out a deep, silent sigh.

Without a word, he turned and walked out, heading straight for the study, leaving Dulcie behind.

As the door clicked shut, Dulcies heart sank.

Even a stranger would show more concern for someone in pain than Kyson did.

He hadnt even looked back at her.

Did he really care so little? Was this the result of not being the one he loved? A knot formed in her chest, her heart aching-not from the physical pain, but from the silent unfairness of it all. Sally hovered nearby, always attentive, offering water, checking on her well-being.

Dulcie, should I call a doctor? Maybe you need an injection for the pain.

Or at least some pain medications? Dulcie, grateful for Sallys concern, shook her head weakly.

No, Sally… I just need some time alone.

Ill call you if I need anything, okay? Kysons cold, indifferent gaze lingered in her mind.

When he had picked her up earlier, there hadnt been a trace of warmth in his eyes.

Was he truly this heartless? Sally noticed Dulcie closing her eyes.

Although concern filled her, she knew there was little she could do and decided to leave for the moment.

Shaw, I just got back.

Cant you give me a break? The voice on the other end, sounding like that of someone barely 25, belonged to a close friend of Kysons.

It was Bain Sanchez-once hailed as a medical prodigy, now a rising star working with Hilliards prestigious medical group.

Youve got an hour.noveldrama

If youre not at my house by then, youll deal with the consequences, Kyson said flatly before ending the call without waiting for a reply.

A flash of worry crossed Kysons face.

He had barely lifted Dulcie, and yet she had reacted as if the pain was unbearable. It was hard to imagine how severe her injuries might be.

Forty minutes later, Bain arrived at the Shaw family residence, drenched in sweat, barely catching his breath.

The butler, startled, greeted him.

Dr.

Sanchez! What brings you here? Is Mr.

Shaw home? Bain asked between gasps, his chest rising and falling from the sprint inside.

Hes in the study, the butler replied, his confusion deepening.
