“But if you really can’t move on, then treat Buddy like your father—after all, he carries your dad’s heart inside him.”
“You should thank Chloe for leaving you such a keepsake.”
Watching the two of them exchange looks right in front of me, my stomach turned.
If Ethan knew the man who had been killed on the table was his own father, would he still be so calm, so eager to thank Chloe for ripping out his dad’s heart for Buddy?
“Ethan Hayes, I am not signing this.”
But Ethan’s face was full of certainty.
“Nora, don’t forget we are husband and wife!”
“Even if you don’t sign it, I can sign it for you—and it’ll still be legally binding. Don’t even think about causing trouble for Chloe!”
He took out a backup copy of the waiver and donation consent form and signed his name with a flourish.
Watching the two of them flirt as they left, I dialed my lawyer.
“Draft me a divorce agreement—right now!”
That night, I had the divorce papers in hand and went straight to find Ethan.
But outside the private booth, I overheard the teasing inside.
“Chloe, I envy you. You got to perform surgery before even graduating!”
Chloe cast a shy glance at Ethan.
