SWNOVELS Chapter 261
Chapter 261
"Gwendolyn, I hope you'll consider divorcing Howard. Jameson said.
With his refined and scholarly demeanor, Jameson bore a passing resemblance
to Howard, but his presence didn't carry the same sharp, frosty air.
His words struck like a bolt from the blue.
Gwendolyn was puzzled. "Why?"
They had always looked like a picture-perfect family. Why would Jameson suggest such a thing?
"He and Selina are thick as thieves. Selina saved Howard's skin ten years ago, and he vowed to have her back for life. Without Selina, Howard wouldn't be the man we know today."
These words hit Gwendolyn like a punch to the gut. She stammered, "But the debt was paid... a life for a life."
"Their bond, forged over a decade, is not so easily defined. She would take her own life for him. He's good to you, but is it love or gratitude for a life saved? And if it is love, how deep could it be after only three months?"
"I am grateful to you for saving my son, and as compensation, I will give you fifty million. I hope you'll accept it and sign the divorce papers"
Her head spun, but she replied instinctively, "If he doesn't want a divorce, neither do L
She couldn't bear to let go.
Patient as ever, Jameson advised, "My dear I'm thinking of your well-being. If Selina were to die, could you ever truly be at peace together? And I'm sure Howard will end up marrying her. Believe mel" His conviction was unwavering.

Jameson reiterated, "I don't want you to be hurt more than you have to be. It's better to step p away sooner rather than later."
His concern seemed genuine, without any ulterior motive
Gwendolyn clenched her teeth, her mind in turmoil. I'm sorry"
"Must you hit rock bottom before you're willing to turn back?" Jameson lamented,
like a mentor disappointed in his apprentice.
Tears welled up in Gwendolyn's eyes. "If he is rock bottom, then so be it
She had never felt so blatantly favored before. Howard was the first
"You'll regret this," he warned.
With a shake of his head, a mix of pity and regret in his eyes, Jameson said, "My offer is always on the table. The fifty million dollar check is ready when you are. But remember, this conversation stays between us, not a word to Howard"
With that, he walked away
Gwendolyn lingered in the hallway for a long time, realizing not everyone in the Chadwick family wished for her and Howard to grow old together.
She would've never known his true feelings if her father-in-law hadn't spoken up.
What about Roselind and Jeannie?
Did they also think she wasn't good enough for Howard?
Why was he so sure that Howard would marry Selina?
When Gwendolyn returned to the hospital wing. Howard's room was empty. She
grabbed her bag and headed toward room 2121.
Selina peeked out from her door, calling out to her.
"Gwendolyn."

"He held me, talked to me, and gave me water," Selina beamed with happiness,
