The Ex-Wife’s Billion Dollar Comeback Novel

---- Chapter 190: Tables Have Turned ~ Rose ~ Rose had a miscarriage again, and she was deeply hurt by it. "Mrs. Montclair, | advise you to be honest with your husband about your condition," Dr. Gilbert said. "Your PCOS is extremely severe. Your body can conceive, but the hormonal and uterine environment is unstable. Even with medication, the risk of miscarriage remains very high." "| would suggest resting your body from getting pregnant. The miscarriages don't give you enough time to recuperate," the doctor added.

"Then, as a last resort, you may opt for an operation to help your ovaries function better." Rose closed her eyes as a tear rolled down her face. "Please, leave it to me to explain to my husband." The entire time, Rose's parents were in the room, listening to the doctor's advice. After Dr. Gilbert left, her mother hugged her tightly, whereas her father sat beside her, shaking his head. "I'm sorry, Rose. I'm sorry you had to go through this," Mrs. Becket wept. "But have you tried to make things better with Calum?" Reginald asked. Rose nodded. "Yes, Dad. I've been very good.

| did everything Calum told me. | pleased Sage and Calum's parents. | was like a lifeless puppet. | just kept saying yes and yes!" Then, she paused, looking woeful. "But he was really upset about the losses of Maison de R." Over the past three months, Rose's employees had tried to market her previous designs but only managed to sell about fifty thousand dollars' worth of clothing. The backlash on her ---- runway designs continued to spread across the elite circle; it only slowed down a little after Luca Valmont had his grand opening.

Instead, the fashion industry of Cedar Heights focused on Valmont Privée, and Rose was pushed into the background. With the new winter collection out, Rose was hoping to recover, and it looked like the new clothes were picking up - but Luca's designs were better. Despite having spent billions of dollars promoting her brand, she still couldn't beat Valmont Privée. What she hated the most was how Luca's new boutique was right across from her shop! "But maybe he will reconsider. I've seen how he started to look forward to the baby.

Your relationship had gotten better after you got pregnant," Reginald suggested, referring to Calum. "He's here. He's coming," Rose's cousin, Connie, quickly alerted her family. Calum walked in with a long face. "Mom, Dad," he greeted before turning to Rose. "How are you feeling?" Rose poured her heart out. "Calum, | have suffered so much. | can't believe | lost our baby again. Maybe this is my punishment for losing your investment in my fashion line." She cried harder. "I don't even have the strength to keep going. | just... | wanted to give you a child so badly, Calum.

| hoped that with our child, you would look at me the same way." "Please don't give up on me, Calum. On us. | don't think | can survive it if you do." Rose hugged Calum tightly, and as she did, she noticed how her husband turned to her parents and ---- cousin. He looked... guilty. "Calm down, Rose," Calum finally spoke. He caressed her hair. " Don't beat yourself up because of this. It's not your fault." "You can still try, Calum. Have another child," Sylvia Becket suggested. "But maybe give Rose a break from getting pregnant.

She needs to rest for a while." Rose couldn't read Calum at that moment. Her husband only nodded, but no real emotions were showing in his eyes. After one day in the hospital, Rose was discharged. Calum took her straight to the old Montclair estate. Amanda greeted her in the living room. "I'm sorry you lost the baby, Rose." For the first time, Amanda gave her a concerned expression. " | know how it feels. | struggled with pregnancy too. That's why l only had Calum." Rose sniffed a tear away. She smiled at Amanda. "Thank you, Mom." Truth be told, her relationship with Amanda had improved.

Since living with the Montclairs, she had tried her best to show Sage love and concern. She was kind to Sage and paid attention. Rose even tried to clean and cook meals within the Montclair home. Although her cooking wasn't the best, it was the effort that counted. When Sage compared Soraya's great cooking to her failed attempts, Rose acknowledged, "Yes, your Mommy Soraya knows how to cook. | think your dad mentioned it to me.

| wish | were a great cook." If Sage said she missed her mom, Rose would encourage her, " Try to call your mommy." Whenever Soraya did not pick up Sage's calls, Rose would say, ---- "Don't worry. Your mom is just busy with work. She'll call back." One time, Sage found an old article that featured Soraya. Sage talked about it over dinner. Before Calum and his parents, Rose calmly remarked, "That's right, Sage. Your mom is very smart with computers. You should be proud of her." On another occasion, when Sage was on a video call with Soraya, Rose joined the call and greeted Soraya.

At that time, Amanda was around to witness her being a sport. "Hi, Soraya, how are you doing?" Soraya simply said hi, but deep down, Rose knew Sage's mother was jealous inside. In fact, Soraya looked a little fatter. Soraya looked like she was just at home, with no makeup, turning into a pig. Rose couldn't help but laugh inwardly. Despite the trials and the fights she'd had with Calum, her husband still stood by her side. Despite Soraya's newly recognized name as a cybersecurity expert, Calum did not go running back to his ex-wife. Soraya could not compete with Rose, even if she tried.

Of course, Rose didn't know that her assumptions about Soraya were nothing but fragile illusions. The truth was still waiting-merciless, patient, and ready to strike. And when it did, it would rip through every ounce of envy she had ever concealed. some ~ Jacob ~ Meanwhile, at the hospital, Soraya gave her first executive order as Jacob's primary nurse. With her hands on her waist, she declared, "You are on ---- medical leave, and that's final. I'm going to take care of you." She presented her tablet and said, "I've already scheduled your meals, your medicines, and your rest.

You are only allowed to have conference calls next week." She picked up a bowl of seaweed broth and fed it to him. " Now, open your mouth." Jacob couldn't help but chuckle. Funny how the tables had turned. It wasn't long ago when he was the one taking care of his wife; now, Soraya was treating him like his arms and legs were disabled too. He was going to enjoy getting pampered for a bit, maybe even take advantage of the situation. After drinking his soup, Jacob said, "Honey, | admit I'm stressed out because of the accident.

| want to eat something special for dessert." "What do you want, Honey?" Soraya asked. Jacob cleared his throat. Then his eyes roamed her chest, and he hissed. Lust shone in his eyes. "Jacob!" Soraya scolded. "We are in the hospital!" "Honey, that's what door locks in hospitals are for. Come on. Just fifteen minutes," he begged. Soraya's mouth dropped to the floor in shock. "Just fifteen minutes?"
