No Divorce? The Billionaire's Love Chase! novel Chapter 156

Claudia didn't press the issue.

After her call with Attorney Chase, Claudia went to four or five different law firms.

Not a single one dared to take on her divorce case, or the other charges against her.

The hope in her eyes slowly turned to despair.

This was Capital City, York's territory.

She should have expected this.

The temperature in Capital City dropped at night.

Claudia stood by the side of the road, pulling her coat tighter around herself.

"Claudia." Not far away, Darleen rolled down her car window and called out to Claudia.

Claudia stopped.

While talking to Darleen, Claudia learned that Wendy had fallen ill from the stress and anger of her arrest.

Peter had gotten into a huge fight with York over her and they were still not on speaking terms.

Even Darleen had almost been sent abroad by York.

...

Everyone who had tried to help her had been completely shut down by York.

Just as Claudia and Darleen were talking, her phone rang.

She answered the phone to her father Felix's anxious voice. "Claudia, come back quickly! Your mother's been rushed to the emergency room."

Darleen drove Claudia to the hospital. Jessica was still in the ICU and hadn't come out yet.

The doctor told them not to crowd the area and to wait in the room.

As the three of them waited anxiously, a middle-aged woman leading a little girl knocked and entered the room.

The woman brought the child in and, without a word, dropped to her knees.

The three people in the room were startled.

Looking at the weeping mother and daughter, thinking of her own mother in the emergency room, and of the lawyer who was too afraid to even meet her...

Claudia turned and left the hospital room.

In the hallway, Claudia frantically called and messaged York.

But it was as if he were dead; there was no response.

Blinded by rage, Claudia could no longer think straight.

She went to Ferguson Mansion, The Imperial Club, and even the community where Ann lived, but there was no sign of York.

Finally, with no other choice, Claudia went to Blue Bay Estates.

At one in the morning, York stepped out of the elevator.

He saw Claudia leaning against the wall by his door, her body looking ready to collapse.

He stopped. "Do you need something?"
