Divorcing My Husband Over His Stepsister's Secret novel Chapter 340

Anna’s POV:

I stared at Blake, momentarily speechless. His raw concern caught me off guard it was so direct, so unfiltered that I didn’t know how to respond.

The Blake I knew before always kept his emotions tightly controlled, hidden behind a mask of cool indifference.

This man before me, with his exhausted eyes and open worry, seemed like someone else entirely.

“The doctor said I can leave,” I finally managed, my voice softer than intended.

Blake shook his head, his expression unyielding. You need to eat something first. The doctor said you’re malnourished.”

As if on cue, the door opened, and a parade of hospital staff entered, carrying multiple insulated containers. I watched in disbelief as Blake methodically. arranged a full meat on the small hospital table.\

“This is… excessive,” I murmured.

‘It’s necessary,” Blake countered, pulling the table closer to my bed. He uncovered the soup bowl, steam rising in gentle curls, and held out a spoon to me. “Start with this.”

I hesitated, caught between stubbornness and surrender. It was so much easier when he was cold, when I could match his indifference with my own. His kindness was a weapon I had no defense against.

Taking the spoon, I carefully sipped the soup. The warm broth soothed my raw throat, and I hadn’t realized how hungry I was until the first taste hit my

tongue.

“Thank you,” I said quietly. “It’s good.”

Blake’s expression softened with relief, and he sat back in his chair, watching me eat with an intensity that made my cheeks warm.

After a few minutes of silence, I gathered my courage. “What are you planning to do about Caroline?”

Blake’s face hardened instantly, his eyes turning cold and distant. “She put you in this condition. She nearly got you killed. She has to face the consequences. His voice dropped lower. “And she should be held responsible for my father’s condition as well.”

I set down my spoon, thinking about Claire. She was the one responsible for William’s death.

Blake gently pushed the plate back toward me. “Eat more. Your health comes first.”

“Does everyone who hurts your father deserve to pay?” I asked.

Blake’s POV:

I looked at Anna. “Yes, they do.”

Caroline raised me after my mother died. I’ve always had a soft spot for her despite her flaws. When my father’s heart condition worsened, Id accepted it as natural, progression–until Anna was targeted. Now I’m reconsidering everything, reopening old wounds to find the truth.

Anna’s POV:

I straightened my shoulders, meeting Blake’s gaze directly. “If you’re reopening the investigation, let me handle it. I promise I’ll make sure whoever is responsible pays the appropriate price.”

Blake reached across the table and took my hand, his expression serious. “I don’t want you worrying about this. You need to 1. first. His voice. lightened slightly. Let me take care of you for a while. Will you give me that chance?”

The unexpected playfulness in his tone made me laugh despite myself. I have money, you know.”

I smiled at him, but my heart felt heavy.

I had barely finished half my meal when the door burst open without warning. Ethan Hamilton stood in the doorway, a bandage wrapped around his head, his expression dark with anger.

Ethan? I blunted out, recognizing him despite the bandage.

Ethan’s mouth twisted into a cruel smile. ‘Having a cozy little date with your wife at the hospital, Mr. Wright?”

Did Daniel not pay him enough? His brain must be completely damaged now–he’s antagonizing everyone he meets.

Blake’s POV:

I shot Ethan a warning glance before turning to Anna with a gentle voice. “I’ll handle him.”

Turning back to Ethan, I let my expression harden. “If your brain isn’t working properly, you should see a doctor. Though I think you might be in the wrong department.

Ethan raised an eyebrow. “What’s wrong, Mr. Wright? Aren’t you going to ask how badly I’m injured?”

I let out a cold laugh. “When you do enough despicable things, karma catches up eventually.”

After Anna appeared in Secret Space’s VIP area, I investigated the club thoroughly. Frank Hamilton’s influence doesn’t just come from old friendships–it comes from knowing people’s desires and secrets.

Anna’s POV:

Ethan’s face tightened momentarily before he shot back, “Speaking of karma, isn’t that why Anna’s in the hospital bed?”

The atmosphere in the room instantly dropped below freezing. Blake slammed his hand on the table, making the dishes jump. His eyes turned to ice as he stood. “Ethan, go tell your father that the investigation into Secret Space is just the beginning.”
