Billionaire's Regret: Hard to Get My Ex-wife Back

"Hey, Marco. Remember that today is our third wedding anniversary. I have prepared a surprise for you. Can you come back early today?"

After sending the message, Loraine Bryant stared at her phone screen with great expectation.

She didn't want to drop it so she wouldn't miss Marco's reply.

However, she didn't get any response as usual.

All of a sudden, the doorbell rang. Loraine's heart leaped with joy and her eyes lit up.

"Is it Marco?"

Loraine rushed to answer the door.

To her disappointment, she saw Marco's bodyguards standing on the other side of the door.

"Mrs. Bryant, you have to come with us to the hospital now," ordered one of the bodyguards.

Loraine took a step back in shock and fear. But the bodyguards still dragged her into the car.

On the way, she bombarded them with questions. However, they remained silent.

The car soon pulled up at the hospital.

The bodyguards dragged her all the way from the parking lot into the hospital. They pressed her against the wall outside a VIP ward.

Lorraine, who had shut her eyes in fear, finally peeled them open. The first thing she saw was the face of her husband's sister, Marina Bryant.

"What took you so long?" Marina queried irritably.

A bad feeling swirled in Loraine's heart. "Why are you here? Why did those bodyguards drag me here? Did something bad happen to Marco? Is he sick?"

"Oh, shut up!" Marina cut her off. "Nothing bad happened to my brother. You were brought here because you will be giving Keely one of your kidneys."

"What?" Loraine couldn't believe her ears. "Did Marco consent to this?"

The three years of her marriage weren't rosy at all. She knew about Keely Haywood-the apple of Marco's eye. In the past, Keely was receiving treatment abroad. Marco traveled out constantly to see her. He was rarely at home. Now that Keely was back in the country, he brought her into his house and gave her all his attention.

It hurt a lot that Marco didn't treat her well. However, Loraine still held out hope that he would fall in love with her one day. She became a slave to him and his entire family. Every day, she did all the chores in the house.

The fact that they were asking for her kidney was the height of it all.

It was hard to believe that Marco agreed to this.

Marina avoided eye contact with her and replied arrogantly, "Of course! You and I know that my brother doesn't love any other woman but Keely. If Grandma hadn't urged him to get married when Keely was still receiving treatment abroad, my brother wouldn't have married you. Otherwise, an orphan from the slums like you wouldn't be able to married into the Bryant family."

Loraine watched her lips move, her ears shut off and her mind wandered.

Marina stood with her hands akimbo and continued disdainfully, "You have failed to conceive a child even after three years. You're just a servant in our house. Now that Keely needs a kidney and you are a good match, it's high time you made yourself useful. If you dare disobey, my brother won't hesitate to dump you and marry Keely."

At this moment, Loraine snapped back to reality when the phone in her pocket buzzed.

She whipped it out and looked at the screen.

It was a notification from her bank. Marco transferred ten million dollars to her.

Was this payment for her kidney?

Should she feel honored that her kidney was so valuable?

Loraine's heart ached severely. Tears made her eyes sting and they turned red. However, her pride made her blink back the tears that were threatening to fall.

Marina, who had been blabbing, suddenly commanded the bodyguards impatiently, "Keep an eye on her. I'll go see the doctor. The surgery must be done immediately. She mustn't run away."

Marina intentionally dropped that threat to show Loraine that she meant business. Then she left arrogantly.

Loraine wasn't going to allow them to use her just like that. When the bodyguards tried to stop her, she kicked them in the groin.

She barged into the ward, intending to ask Marco about this.

The scene she saw made her freeze on the spot. Marco was sitting on the edge of the bed.

Keely was leaning against his chest.

Marco rubbed her back and said comfortingly, "Don't worry, Keely. I'll pull out all the stops for you to get well. Just trust me, okay? I have already found the perfect match for you. You'll get better in no time."

Loraine's heart sank to her stomach at this moment.
