I Have Never Been Your First Choice novel Chapter 299

Chapter 299

“Like Lexie.”

Darien froze, hugged his wife, and didn’t say anything.

Mrs. Mercado sighed, “I haven’t seen her for over ten years since she lost her child and changed like that. I don’t know how she’s doing

now.”

“Don’t worry.” Darien said helplessly. “Lexie is doing well at the Stafford’s house, with their son supporting her. And Devan really cares about her, how can he bear to divorce his wife when she’s like this!”

“If I became like Lexie, would you be willing to divorce me?”

Mrs. Mercado glanced at him.

Darien shouted in protest, “I didn’t do it! No way, I don’t want to leave!”

Charlotte went to David’s office and told him what Mrs. Mercado said.

David was genuinely happy for her, “Sure, Quelum Hospital has much better benefits than Portland Hospital. And now with Mrs. Mercado’s recommendation, transferring to Quelum Hospital will be good for you in the future.”

Charlotte nodded with a smile.

She was about to leave when she suddenly remembered something, stopped at the door, and said, “David, there’s something I want to ask you.”

David took a sip of tea, “Hmm? What’s up?”

“My transfer report remains the same. If anyone asks, just tell them I’m at Portland Hospital. I don’t really want others to know that I’m actually at Quelum Hospital.”

What she said about “others” also includes Jaxson.

David agreed.

Charlotte got back to Havenwood Apartments in the evening and ran into Jaxson as soon as she walked in. He was wearing a smoke–gray shirt, standing by the floor–to–ceiling window making a phone call. She couldn’t hear what he was talking about.

He also saw Charlotte in the reflection in the glass.

After ending the call, Jaxson slowly turned around and walked towards her, “No cooking tonight, let’s order takeout.”

Charlotte was also too lazy to cook, so she agreed.

Jaxson ordered delivery from Icon Nightclub, all the delicious dishes were delivered by a special car. Not only that, they also sent a bouquet of roses, two bottles of champagne, and scented candles.

Dinner was quite sumptuous, and the atmosphere was romantic.

Charlotte didn’t even realize his plan for a long time.

Jaxson poured champagne and said, “I had work for the past three days, so I couldn’t be with you.”

Charlotte understood the meaning, isn’t this just his compensation afterwards?

“No worries, Anna’s got this.”

Besides, she didn’t need him anyway.

He paused for a few seconds, lifted his eyelids to meet her gaze, and seemed lost in thought.

Charlotte lowered her head to eat, the romantic setting on the table seemed to have nothing to do with her, and she didn’t speak

anymore.

After she was full, she didn’t care about Jaxson’s expression and got up to go back to the bedroom.

Took out a medical box from the bag, inside the box was a syringe and a small vial of medicine, it was the Depo–Provera she brought back
