First Love Only? I Left Him First, Now the CEO Can't Let Go novel Chapter 109

Chapter 109: Chapter 109: Dying on the Operating Table

During the time when Serena was preparing for the LD Jewelry Fashion Week, she didn’t completely disregard the agreement divorce with Caleb Lockwood.

Caleb Lockwood was offering her ten percent of the shares, which she couldn’t refuse. She had two choices: either accept, and then she and Caleb Lockwood could dissolve their marital relationship but become colleagues.

Or refuse, and the divorce agreement would be void again.

Serena thought it over and decided to accept.

She first signed the divorce agreement in three copies and then waited for Caleb Lockwood to return from his business trip abroad.

This time... she and Caleb Lockwood were really going to get divorced.

Sitting in the office, Serena looked at the divorce agreement beside her and felt a sense of reflection in her heart.

She wouldn’t miss Caleb Lockwood, and she certainly wouldn’t miss her shattered marriage.

What Serena felt was a pity was just her entire decade of youth and love.

The phone rang once, it was Caleb Lockwood’s reply.

The reply contained only one word:

Okay.

Precious with words, cold as frost.

Serena sighed.

Having arranged a time with Caleb Lockwood, Serena took the divorce agreement and drove to the Civil Affairs Bureau.

Meanwhile, Caleb Lockwood was also driving, but Claire Shaw was sitting in his car; he wanted to drop Claire Shaw home first.

The industrial park was somewhat far from the Civil Affairs Bureau, and there was a traffic jam on the way. Serena waited at the red light in her car, feeling restless inside.

Then, a phone call came in.

Initially, Serena thought it might be Caleb Lockwood arriving first and contacting her because he was impatient.

Turns out the incoming call showed an unknown number.

"Hello?"

Serena answered the phone using her Bluetooth headset.

"Is this Miss Serena Jennings?"

"I am."

"Hello, Miss Jennings, this is Serene Meadows Nursing Home. We deeply apologize, but a new intern made a mistake, and your mother has secretly run away from the nursing home..."

"What?!"

Serena nearly slammed on the brakes after she passed the intersection.

"We are extremely sorry, we have already contacted the police, because last time you mentioned that any issues should be reported to you first instead of President Lockwood, so..."

Serena couldn’t pay attention to anything beyond that.

Her mother had run away!

Even though her mother had periods of coherence before, she was sometimes lucid, sometimes confused. Running away like this would definitely lead to trouble!

Serena sharply turned the steering wheel, her white BMW three-series beautifully rounded the corner.

This road was not heading towards the Civil Affairs Bureau.

Inside the emperor blue Bentley.

Claire Shaw was smiling brightly.

"Caleb, are you going to the Civil Affairs Bureau to finalize the divorce today?"

"Yes."

Seeing Caleb Lockwood nod without a moment’s hesitation, Claire Shaw secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally... they’re getting divorced...

The day she had eagerly awaited was finally arriving!

Claire Shaw couldn’t contain her joy and excitement inside, but on the surface, she still maintained a calm demeanor, especially in front of Caleb Lockwood.

As they approached her home ahead, Caleb Lockwood’s phone suddenly rang.

Caleb Lockwood pressed the answer button on the steering wheel directly.

"Hello, is this Mr. Caleb Lockwood?"

The man’s voice emitted from the car system surprised Claire Shaw.

"I am," Caleb Lockwood replied.

"This is the City Center Hospital, your wife Miss Serena Jennings was just in a car accident. She was speeding on the way to find her missing mother and collided with a truck. She has now been sent to the ICU for emergency rescue. Family needs to come over to sign the paperwork."

The hospital staff seemed accustomed to such matters; their tone was bureaucratic, without any trace of sympathy or regret.

In the car, all was silent.

Even Claire Shaw sitting in the passenger seat was amazed.

However, Caleb Lockwood’s expression remained unchanged.

"I understand."

After speaking, he hung up the phone.

"Caleb, let’s hurry to the hospital to check on Serena!"

Claire Shaw hurriedly said.

She wanted to see if Serena could make it out of the ICU.
