Taking Back What My Sister Stole novel Chapter 138

She wrinkled her nose in feigned difficulty. “There’s new progress on the R&D project. Can you come and listen?”

It was an open attempt to steal him away.

It was also a silent show of superiority.

Wesley agreed indulgently, and the two of them headed back toward the elevator.

Priscilla’s heart sank little by little.

She couldn’t help but chase after them, but Elijah stopped her. “Ms. Wilburn… don’t go after them.”

Priscilla gritted her teeth.

It had been so hard to see Wesley–how could she give up now?

She could wait as long as it took for him to change his mind, but Noah’s illness couldn’t wait.

She shoved Elijah hard.

Caught off guard, Elijah instinctively grabbed Priscilla’s arm.

He just wanted to steady himself.

But because Priscilla was moving forward, he couldn’t keep his balance.

Both of them fell to the ground.

Priscilla landed half on top of Elijah.

The atmosphere was awkward and strange.

The air was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Elijah suddenly felt like the sky was falling–he didn’t even know where to put his hands.

He feared his bonus for the month was as good as gone.

“Ms. Wilburn… Ms. Wilburn…” he called, hoping Priscilla would get up quickly.

But Priscilla didn’t move at all.

Elijah could already see Mr. Carlton striding over.

He looked murderous.

Elijah could only reach out to push Priscilla. “Ms. Wilburn, Mr. Carlton is coming.”

Wesley stood in front of them, looking down from above, his face even more menacing than usual.

“Get up.”

Priscilla still didn’t move.

Wesley’s expression grew even colder, his teeth clenched.

“Priscilla, I told you to get up.”

Elijah timidly reached out, his voice trembling, almost in tears.

“Mr. Carlton, Mrs. Carlton seems to have fainted.”

Wesley was stunned, his expression changing dramatically.

He quickly bent down and picked Priscilla up.

Her long hair slipped from her face, revealing Priscilla’s deathly pale features.

Her eyes were tightly closed.

In that moment, all of Wesley’s emotions turned to panic. He held her tightly in his arms, tossed the car keys to Elijah, and shouted at him.

“Get up and drive!”

Hospital.

After examining her, the doctor gave his conclusion.

Priscilla had fainted from exhaustion.

She just needed more rest.

When Priscilla woke up, the setting sun was already hanging in the sky.

She propped herself up and slowly sat up, looking toward the window.

Wesley’s tall figure was bathed in a layer of orange light, making him look especially hazy and distant.

His hands were in his pockets, his eyes downcast, lost in thought.

Priscilla couldn’t help but call his name softly, “Wes.”

Wesley turned around, his tone flat. “The doctor said you’re too tired.”

Priscilla bit her lip, her eyes filling with tears.

Noah’s illness had kept her up night after night, and after learning that Wesley was the successful match, she had been running around trying to find him.

She had spent the previous night waiting outside Chaston Villa.

And today, she had gone to the Carlton Group to look for him.

Her slender, pale fingers gripped the blanket tightly as Priscilla humbled herself to the dust.

Her eyes were tinged with a fragile red. “Wesley, I’m begging you, please save Noah.”

Wesley replied indifferently, “What about Luciano? You two can have another child. The chances of a successful match

are high.”

Priscilla shook her head with a bitter smile. “It’s not possible.”

“You’re the child’s biological parents. Why not?” Wesley pressed.

Many children with leukemia couldn’t find a suitable bone marrow match, so their parents would have another child.

They had already gotten their divorce certificate.

He had given her freedom.

She could have another child with Luciano to save Noah.

“We are already divorced.”

Wesley stood by the window, his cold and handsome face full of indifference.

Priscilla lowered her eyes, a wave of bitterness surging in her heart as she recalled what he had said on the day they got

their divorce certificate.

If she begged him again, it would only end in her utter destruction.

Now, she could only shatter her own pride.

“You are the child’s only hope.”

“Wesley, I beg you, please save his life.”

There was no warmth in the man’s dark eyes as he turned slightly to look at her.

“I have no obligation to do that.”

They were no longer husband and wife, and besides, that child wasn’t even theirs.

Whether he saved the child or not, he could justify it either

way.

Priscilla gripped the blanket tightly; she knew what Wesley wanted.

He was waiting for her to give in.

To completely surrender.

She knew that he had always been holding back a breath in
