THE DIVORCE GAMBIT From Dumped Wife to CEO's Forever novel Chapter 225

There was just the faintest twitch of Stuart’s finger.

Amanda continued to push the nutritional supplement through his feeding tube, completely missing the subtle movement.

Knock, knock, knock—

A sharp rapping echoed from the hallway.

“Come in,” Amanda called out without hurrying.

A young doctor in a white coat stepped inside. He looked refined, maybe twenty-eight or twenty-nine.

This was Dr. Waldo Barrett, the physician overseeing Stuart’s recovery.

“Miss Amanda,” he greeted her.

Amanda had just finished administering the last of the supplement. Hearing Dr. Barrett’s voice, she stood up. “Dr. Barrett, you’re here.”

He nodded and moved to the bedside, opening his medical kit to check on Stuart.

Amanda stood nearby, her voice gentle with concern. “Dr. Barrett, how is my brother doing?”

Waldo’s voice was warm and reassuring, and when he spoke, he met Amanda’s gaze. “Don’t worry, Miss Amanda. I’ll do everything I can for him. I promise I won’t let you down. He’ll get better soon.”

Amanda smiled and nodded. “Thank you, Dr. Barrett. I really appreciate it.”

Celeste could barely contain her excitement. “Catie, this is my first time traveling with a close friend!”

She’d only ever traveled with her parents and older brother before.

“It’s my first time too,” Caitlin admitted.
