My Ex-Husband Always Knew That I Had Cheated on Him
Chapter 56: Truly Damn Stupid!

Chapter 56: Chapter 56: Truly Damn Stupid!

Lucas Hughes was so pleased, his grin was about to stretch all the way to his grandmother’s house.

Someone like Alexander Johnson, the Young Master, would surely fall for this!

As for a man, wasn’t there a ready-made one in the hospital, who had even pursued Chloe Simpson before?

He couldn’t believe Alexander would just sit back and let this happen.

But even if he managed to attract Alexander’s attention, how could he get Chloe to the hotel without arousing her suspicion, making everything appear seamless?

Lucas sat on the toilet, pondering for quite some time.

Finally, he sent a message to that twisted group again, @ing the mmby who had given him some advice earlier.

[Brother, the plan you suggested was great, but even if the first step succeeds, what about the rest? I’ve got to find a way to get my wife to the hotel, and then find an opportunity to slip into the room.]

mmby:[Wow! You’re playing quite the fancy game, buddy! But I love it, hahaha, hang on while I think about it for you.]

At this moment, someone called Drooling jumped in.

[Hey, why don’t you people get some sleep instead of staying up late thinking about such simple-minded games? It’s easy, just knock her out and drag her over. Then you can wash your hands of the whole thing, just deny it till the end!]

mmby:[Oh my, you’re ruthless, but... seems like there’s no other way.]

Drooling:[That’s right, I know it well! Let me tell you, I’ve done this once before. Honestly, I’d never seen my ex-wife so wild. Remember, when you take your wife upstairs, dodge the surveillance or disguise yourselves, otherwise, getting discovered by the cameras could be troublesome.]

Lucas was utterly thrilled just listening, feeling an urge stirring inside: [Alright, I got it, thanks guys.]

mmby:[If you succeed, remember to share your results. Hahaha!]

[For sure!]

Lucas sent another affirmative emoji, then stood up and left the bathroom, climbing into bed with satisfaction.

In the room, Chloe was still deeply asleep, oblivious to everything.

The next morning, Lucas got up very early, excited beyond words at the thought of what lay ahead.

He made an extravagantly hearty breakfast, complete with both Chinese and Western dishes.

When Chloe woke up and saw it, she was stunned, overjoyed, she could hardly believe her eyes.

"Lucas, aren’t you the one who dislikes cooking? How come you didn’t wake me up?"

She walked over and hugged him from behind.

From the moment she knew Lucas, five years had gone by, and his instances of cooking couldn’t even fill one hand.

And most of what he cooked was instant noodles.

He did all the other chores but just didn’t like cooking.

"I just thought you’ve been working hard, at the hospital every day handling Alexander and all, all for our parents, for our little family, so I’m rewarding my wife a bit."

Lucas immediately spouted a string of flattery.

Women need to be coaxed, right?

Especially Chloe, she bought into this so easily.

"Lucas, you’re the best!" Chloe couldn’t help but feel warmth in her heart.

Women are instinctively emotional creatures, many times they just want to see a man change for them, to feel they’re important in a man’s heart.

But most often, they’re just moved by themselves.

Such men do exist, but not every woman is lucky enough to meet one willing to change and strive for her.

Clearly, at this moment, Chloe was deeply moved.

Right now, she truly felt like the happiest woman in the world.

"Alright, go wash up and eat breakfast, then we’ll go to work together."

Lucas was extremely satisfied with the impact of this breakfast.

Just a meal, and she was moved to tears, how goddamn foolish!

Alright, next up, he could continue with the next step of his plan.

At seven forty in the morning, Lucas and Chloe arrived at the hospital for work.

Chloe was in a great mood, but as soon as she saw Alexander, thoughts of everything from last night came flooding back, and her spirits sank again.

All day, she consciously avoided Alexander.

But from the start of the workday until the end, Alexander hadn’t interacted with her at all, not even giving her a glance, making Chloe feel like she had overthought everything.

She figured that maybe, after what happened last night, Alexander would never bother with her again.

After all, as a Young Master in the Capital Circle, he had no shortage of women wanting to cozy up to him, why would he care for a disobedient woman who often talked back to him?

That would be best; she and Lucas could return to their peaceful lives.

Chloe was there, daydreaming about her and Lucas’s future happy life.

Mason Yates, the Director of the Respiratory Department, came in.

"Nurse Simpson, you’re here, perfect! I was looking for you! By the way, is Director Johnson around? Is he in?"

As soon as Mason came in and saw Chloe, he asked about Alexander.

"Oh, he’s in his office. I’ll go call him."

Chloe hesitated, just thinking she wouldn’t have any dealings with Alexander today, but now...

But this was just regular work, it shouldn’t count as a real interaction.

"Director... Director Johnson, Director Yates is here, looking for you."

Chloe ignored the irritation bubbling inside her and went to the office to find Alexander.

Alexander got up and walked out: "What’s up, Director Yates, do you have any special matters?"

"Director Johnson, why don’t you and Nurse Simpson come to my office for a talk."

Mason glanced at the surrounding medical staff and spoke.

"Okay." Alexander nodded and followed Mason to his office.

Chloe followed them over.

"Director Johnson, your blood test results are out, and there are some abnormalities..."

Once they reached the respiratory department, Mason closed the door, his expression turning serious.

"!" Chloe’s heart skipped a beat, she suddenly looked at Alexander, her face turning pale.

Immediately, she recalled last night, when Alexander got jabbed by the syringe carrying HIV while trying to save her.
