A Vengeful Ex-Wife novel Chapter 441

"Mia, Mia." James was calling her again.

Maria burst into tears. "Goodbye, Arthur! Arthur!"

"Mia, don't cry."

However, sobs kept bursting forth from her mouth. She was inconsolable.

When she woke up from the dream, Maria's eyes opened to meet James' worried ones.

The frown on his brows finally relaxed. "You're awake. How are you feeling now?"

Maria looked at her surroundings and recognized the room in the Fairview Villa. Shaking her head, she said softly, "James, Arthur appeared in my dream."

"Really? What was he doing?" Maria appeared to be normal at the moment, so James secretly let out a sigh of relief.

"In another world, Arthur has his own parents and a younger sister."

James grabbed her hand and pressed his lips at the back of it. "Maybe Arthur was telling you that he's happy now. He doesn't want you to worry about him."

"Yeah." Even in the hazy reality of that dream, she could feel her son's happiness.

No matter where Arthur was, it was okay as long as he was doing fine.

"So, don't miss him anymore. Let's just take good care of his brother." He hoped that Maria would no longer dwell on Arthur's accident.

"Ah, by the way, Bob also picked a bald boy to be his younger brother." A smile crossed Maria's features at the thought.

She didn't see the child's face clearly, which was unfortunate, but she could tell that the baby was extremely cute.

With a smile, James said, "It seems like Bob is going to have a younger brother."

Maria rolled her eyes at him. "How could that be possible?" They had been taking contraceptive measures all this time, so Bob wouldn't be getting a brother any time soon.

"Are you hungry? I'll ask John to bring up some food," he asked. She had been asleep for a day and a night.

"Okay." Maria didn't refuse.

She felt exhausted, and her head throbbed painfully. However, it was nothing unusual after a long sleep.

After dinner, Maria regained most of her strength. She asked James, "Where is Bob?"

"He is at Lawrence's place."

"Why?" Maria asked, a slight frown of confusion puckering her brows.

Lawrence's workplace was more than two hundred kilometers away from them-in other words, nowhere close.

"Rosa has run away, and I'm sure Colby is up to no good himself. We can get Bob once we've dealt with both of them."

Maria fell silent.

She could understand James' intention. After all, Lawrence's workplace was safe. For now, she only had to endure the pain of missing Bob.

After clearing away the dishes, James sat at the edge of the bed and looked into Maria's eyes. "I have something to talk to you about."

"What is it?"

He took out a bottle of medicine from the nightstand drawer and asked in a tentative tone, "Have you been taking this all this time?"

Stunned, Maria stared at the bottle for a moment and then shook her head. "I used to take it before, but I haven't had it for a long time."

Since she was with James, she was so happy that her mental trauma had gradually healed.

"Mia, I've contacted a famous psychiatrist. I'll take you to him for a check-up, okay?"

Maria refused the offer. In one movement, she grabbed the bottle and tossed it into the nearby trash bin. "There's no need; I'm fine now. I don't need to take the medicine or do the check-up."

James stared at her, surprised by her answer. Then, his eyes strayed toward the bottle in the trash can without saying a word.
