Divorce Failed My Wife's Secret Identities Shock the World novel Chapter 1136

Like his wife, Thatcher struggled to process the nightmare unfolding before them.

"Simon, you can't just stand there and watch your brother die."

Although Simon wasn't a practicing surgeon, he had dedicated years to medical research. Thatcher hoped he could pull strings or find an experimental solution.

But Simon offered no false hope.

"Dad, I'm a researcher. I know nothing about emergency trauma surgery."

Faye looked at him with tear-streaked desperation. "You employ the most brilliant medical minds in your lab. You're telling me not a single one of them can save him?"

She grabbed Simon's sleeve, her knuckles white.

"Simon, you share the same blood. You cannot just let him fade away like this."

The Grovers had four children, but Barton and Simon were the only two the family could rely on to uphold their empire.

Suddenly, the heart monitor began blaring a shrill, terrifying alarm. Barton's vitals were crashing.

Doctors and nurses flooded the room, plunging the space into chaotic panic.

His blood pressure was erratic, his heart stopping and restarting. Barton was hovering on the very edge of death.

Thatcher's face aged a decade in seconds, while Faye covered her face, weeping hysterically.

Weighing his options, Simon finally voiced the thought he had kept buried.

"There is one person who might be able to pull him back from the brink."

Faye's eyes snapped up, burning with desperate hope. "Who?"

Simon's voice was terrifyingly calm. "Maeve Vance."

At the sound of that name, Faye's face twisted with pure venom. Remembering how Maeve had systematically dismantled their family's power, she gritted her teeth.

"Why the hell would she—"

"Because she's The Shadow Healer."

Maeve's secret identity had already begun to circulate among the ultra-elite.
