The Betrayed Heiress Is Now the CEO’s Obsession novel Chapter 362

Chapter 362

Lilian turned to the nurse. “Please take him to get his wound treated.”

But Sean stood frozen, his eyes fixed on the red-lit sign above the doors: Surgery in Progress. He couldn’t bring himself to move.

Lilian wiped her tears, then gave him a gentle push. “Go get your hand bandaged. You don’t want Lottie waking up and seeing you like this, do you?”

Those words seemed to get through to him.

He gave a small nod, then slowly moved his feet and followed the nurse down the hall.

Mia watched Sean’s retreating figure and let out a long sigh.

“Those two… what a tragic pair,” she murmured.

As soon as Sean left, Lilian turned and yanked James by the arm. “Come with me!”

Her tone was forceful, and she dragged James all the way outside the hospital. Her lips were tightly pressed together, her eyes practically burning with fury.

Several doctors and nurses along the way shot them curious, gossiping glances.

Once they reached outside, James shook her off. “What are you doing? Let go of me!”

Smack!

p slap echoed in the air.

“You’ve lost your mind!” James roared, stunned.

“I’ve lost my mind?” Lilian was seething. “You’re the one who messed around and got that woman pregnant! You let her keep the baby, and now look what’s happened! Joseph Ford nearly killed Sean today. Do you even realize that?”

James’s expression darkened. “I didn’t know he’d turn out like this! Blaming me won’t help anything now!”

Lilian’s tone shifted. She didn’t yell anymore. Her voice dropped to a quiet, measured calm.

“You caused this disaster, yet you act like you’re innocent. Because of your mistake, Sean nearly lost his life. The Riley family was nearly destroyed. And now you have the nerve to accuse me of threatening you? To blame your parents for not accepting Joseph?”

She looked him dead in the eyes, her voice icy.

“James, if there’s anyone Joseph should’ve taken revenge on-it’s you.”

With that, Lilian turned and walked away without looking back.

“1…” James opened his mouth, trying to speak, but before he could get a word out, he suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood. His vision blurred.

And then he collapsed.
