Divorce Failed My Wife's Secret Identities Shock the World novel Chapter 1017

Luke felt zero remorse for what he had done.

"Trading three of your fingers for my permanent freedom feels like a spectacular deal to me, Nancy."

He had spent the entire agonizing night pacing his room, wrestling with the impossible ultimatum.

On one side of the scale was his entire future; on the other was his sister's well-being.

When forced to make the final call, his own survival won out easily.

Just then, Nancy's phone chimed. Andres's chilling voice drifted through the line.

"Nancy. I hope my little gift is something you'll cherish forever."

She snatched the phone up, ready to scream every obscenity she knew, but Andres had already ended the call.

In a blind rage, she hurled the phone across the room, narrowly missing Faye, who had just sprinted through the door after hearing the screams.

Seeing her daughter's mangled fingers dripping blood onto the hardwood, Faye's eyes went wide with sheer horror.

"Nancy! What on earth happened?"

Nancy's eyes were blazing with unhinged fury, her pale lips trembling violently.

"Mom, you raised a real monster. He just deliberately crushed my fingers in the door!"

Faye turned purple with rage and slapped Luke sharply across the face.

Cradling his stinging cheek, Luke smirked coldly. "Three fingers for one slap. I'd say we're officially even, dear sister."

While the Grover household descended into complete pandemonium, Maeve was meticulously wrapping up the marathon heart transplant.

Despite the grueling five-and-a-half-hour timeline, Benjamin's second heart surgery had been an absolute triumph.

The moment she stepped back from the operating table, she mumbled a few post-op instructions to Dr. Evans before her vision went black and she essentially passed out on her feet.

Instead of dragging her back to Azure Bay, Andres booked a luxurious VIP suite right there in the hospital so she could crash instantly.

It was exactly what Maeve had requested before losing consciousness.
