First Love Only? I Left Him First, Now the CEO Can't Let Go novel Chapter 114

Chapter 114: Chapter 114: Confined Here

Peter, Patrick Rhodes, and Lana Xavier left the hospital room one after another, with Lana being forcibly dragged away by Patrick.

Only Caleb Lockwood and Serena Jennings remained in the room.

It felt much emptier.

"Caleb Lockwood, Lana is not..."

"Do you think, just like Lana Xavier, that I’ve never visited you, not paid a penny of your medical expenses, is that right?"

Caleb Lockwood interrupted Serena Jennings, choosing to say what he wanted first.

Serena heard Caleb’s tone and implication, which seemed like Lana Xavier had wronged him.

But she didn’t want to make blind guesses by herself.

Having hoped presumptuously only to end up disappointed — she had experienced this too many times before.

"I don’t know."

Serena replied truthfully.

Caleb laughed lightly, the sound tinged with self-deprecation.

"The doctor said you are fine in other aspects, only the leg needs rehabilitation. It’s not suitable to continue staying here, so I’ve arranged a transfer for you."

Serena’s eyes widened.

"Transfer to where?"

"A newly opened rehabilitation center."

"No, I don’t want to go, I can recuperate my leg at home."

Serena wasn’t necessarily afraid of the rehabilitation center; she just inexplicably didn’t want to go where Caleb had arranged for her.

Caleb didn’t force Serena.

He had asked the doctor, who suggested it was best for Serena’s injured left leg to rehabilitate using proper equipment at a rehabilitation center for faster recovery and less risk of aftereffects.

Caleb could have told Serena all this, but with words ready to be spoken, he suddenly changed his mind:

"Going to the rehabilitation center will help you recover faster, and the sooner you recover, the sooner we can get a divorce, plus the LD Jewelry Fashion Week is coming."

Serena was convinced by Caleb’s words and transferred on the same day.

She could tell that Caleb was also eager for the divorce.

It should be because of the good news with Claire Shaw.

Zenith Rehabilitation Center.

This rehabilitation center just opened recently, rebuilt and expanded from the original sanatorium with new decorations and cutting-edge medical equipment, aiming to become an internationally top-tier recovery hospital.

Serena became its first and only patient.

The environment here was stunningly beautiful, with rooms fully equipped with furniture and appliances, advanced medical equipment giving more of a royal European modern facility feel rather than a rehab center.

However, it’s managed under a closed system, with idle personnel not allowed to enter.

Upon transferring, Serena packed her suitcase with the necessary items, including design sketches and tools for making jewelry samples.

And of course, the divorce agreement.

The divorce agreement in three copies was already signed by her, but not yet by Caleb.

Initially, she planned to bring it to the Civil Affairs Bureau for Caleb’s signature, but then many things happened unexpectedly.

Serena placed the divorce agreement on the nightstand, waiting for Caleb to arrive so he could sign it first.

Her room only saw the doctor and caregivers come in; she didn’t think they’d be interested in a divorce agreement.

Dusk fell on City A, neon lights sparkling, excess was in the air.

A group of people walked out in groups of twos and threes from the Harmony Grand Hotel.

Among them was Claire Shaw.

She was attending a reunion tonight.

The reunion of City A’s First High School, except Caleb Lockwood and Patrick Rhodes were absent.

Because Ian Blackwood had returned.

Tonight’s reunion was actually a homecoming for Ian Blackwood.

And where Ian Blackwood is, Caleb Lockwood is absolutely not invited.

"Want to go for some more drinks?"

Among all those classmates, Ian Blackwood only said this to Claire Shaw.

Through the gold-rimmed glasses perched on his high nose, Claire saw Ian’s lazy and mischievous smile in his elongated eyes.

"Sure!"

She smiled sweetly.

Tonight, she deliberately dressed up, from hairstyle to makeup, even attire, all in pink tones — sweet and innocent — like she was in Ian’s memory during high school.
