Out of Ashes Into His Heart novel Chapter 34

I couldn't help but roll my eyes. "Of course, it's Gavin's. I took a bunch of ovulation-stimulating drugs at the time!"

Dawn chuckled. "Well, you never know. What if the baby's real father is someone else?"

"Stop joking."

She didn't continue teasing. "Alright. Enough with the jokes. What are you going to do next?"

"I guess I'll just wait until Gavin feels better and is ready to talk."

It was frustrating that such a good opportunity had slipped through my fingers, but I could do nothing now. Complaining wouldn't help.

"Speaking of which, why did Tom suggest Gavin get a check-up? Does he know something?" Dawn speculated.

I pursed my lip. "I don't know."

It might just be a coincidence.

While chatting with her, an unknown number called in. "Dawn, I need to take this call. I'll call you later."

After hanging up, I quickly answered the call. "Hello?"

"May I speak with Ms. Summers?"

"Speaking. Who's this?"

"This is Zephyr Corporation. We've received your resume and would like to know if you're available for an interview tomorrow afternoon.

I almost jumped for joy when I realized it was a job interview.

And it was Zephyr Corporation—one of the top voice-acting companies in the country.

"Yes, I'm available."

"Great. We'll send the interview details and the required documents to your email."

I quickly stepped forward, trying to pull her away, worried she might end up in trouble before him.

A face peeked out from behind Gavin, and a sneer followed. "I wondered who was acting like a mad dog, shouting at people without reason. Turns out, it's Grace's friend. Birds of a feather flock together, huh?"

"Who are you calling a mad dog?!" Seeing Mandy, Dawn immediately grabbed her by the hair.

"You... Let go of me!" Mandy bent over in pain as Dawn pulled her, her face turning red. She reached out to Gavin for help. "Gavin, what are you waiting for? Come and save me!"

He stepped forward and grabbed Dawn's wrist, his voice cold. "Let go."

Dawn winced in pain, but even though she didn't want to release her grip, he forcefully pulled her off, leaving her holding a handful of Mandy's hair.

As Gavin stormed toward Dawn, I stepped in front of her, glaringly at him. "You said you didn't feel like dealing with the divorce paperwork today. What's this? Why do you suddenly have time to accompany Mandy to go shopping?"

"Divorce?" Mandy, who had been rubbing her scalp, suddenly looked up, her face a mix of disbelief and a touch of surprise. "Gavin, you're getting a divorce?"
