Once Cast-Off Wife Now Untouchable Queen novel Chapter 6

Chapter 6 Have You Calmed Down?

“It was me who called 911. Tyrone, he-”

Raine blurted out her words, only to realize too late what she had said.

Aella closed her eyes; all of her love for him was gone.

Of course. His first love had come back, and she brought along a five-year-old son.

Why would Tyrone care if she lived or died?

Her chest ached so badly that she pressed both hands over her heart.

Curling up, she whispered, “Virginia, Raine… My mom just had surgery. I don’t want her or my dad to see me in the hospital. Please take me home.”

Virginia quickly told her daughter to get the car ready. “The doctor said it’s low blood sugar and stress that made you faint. Resting at home will be easier. Don’t worry, I’ll handle this. I already called Tyrone and told him to come home quickly.”

On the ride home, Aella reminded them again. She begged Virginia and Raine not to get involved in her relationship with Tyrone.

However painful it was, she needed to end it herself.

Back at the house, Virginia and Raine stayed by Aella’s side the entire day. They gave her medicine, made her grits, and tried to comfort her.

But Tyrone never showed up.

She dozed on and off until evening, when she finally regained a little strength.

After much insisting, she convinced Virginia and Raine to go home and get some rest.

Alone at the sink, she looked in the mirror. In just a few days, she looked like a ghost of herself. Hollow, pale, worn down.

She brushed her teeth and set the cup back on the counter.

“Crash.” The cup shattered across the floor.

Aella slowly bent down and picked up a shard of the ceramic. The cup had once held a picture of her and Tyrone, smiling together. Now it was nothing but broken pieces.

She had ordered the set online for their first anniversary.

A couple of cups. The design was a selfie she had secretly snapped while leaning against Tyrone.

He’d said it was childish and refused to use it.

She had begged him for a week and cried all night until he finally agreed.

Her emotions, which she had been holding down all day, erupted again.

She hurled the other cup, then swept everything off the counter.

From the sink to the shower, she smashed whatever she could reach.

Fifteen minutes later, she collapsed onto the bathroom floor, completely spent. Around her lay broken glass, shards of ceramic, tangled towels, and even charging cords.

She lay there in the wreckage, sobbing-until the sobs turned into bitter laughter.

Aella had imagined countless futures with Tyrone.

But never this. There would never be a day when she was left like this.

So broken. So pathetic.

At the same time, inside the Winter Estate.

Virginia nearly exploded when she saw her son finally show up. “Tyrone, is this how you take care of Aella? She ended up in the hospital; do you even know that?”

Tyrone’s face stayed calm. “What did the doctor say?”

Raine glared at him. “The doctor said Aella fainted from low blood sugar and because of you making her upset.”

Tyrone only gave a short, cold grunt.

Virginia couldn’t hold back anymore. She hissed, “Your wife fainted at home, and you don’t even care? What kind of attitude is that?”

Tyrone brushed them off. “She’s fine. Don’t worry.”

She was faking it. He knew better than anyone.

Virginia tossed Aella’s test results at him. Tyrone glanced over them.

So, she’s learned new tricks.
