The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 60 Patricia has a Fever
Time seemed to have passed by in a blur, and Patricia finally cried herself out, having fully vented her emotions. Then she withdrew from his embrace, her head lowered in embarrassment as she wiped away the tears from her face.However, as soon as her hand touched her cheek, she instinctively gasped in pain. In the midst of her crying earlier, she hadn't noticed the pain.Now, she finally noticed the burning sensation on her face. Martin immediately released her hand and spoke gently, "Does your face hurt? Wait here, I'll go get you some ice. The doctor said applying ice can help relieve the pain."Patricia was afraid and held onto his hand, not wanting him to leave.Martin reassured her, patting her hand, "Don't worry, there's a security guard outside the door. No one will come in. I'll be back soon."Upon hearing that there was a security guard outside, Patricia finally let go of him.Martin rubbed her head, left the hospital room, and returned shortly with a few ice cubes wrapped
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 61 Martin Changes Clothes for Patricia
"Patricia..." Martin gently tapped her cheek, hoping to wake her up. But as soon as his hand touched her face, it recoiled from the heat."Your face is so hot, Patricia. Are you sick? Can you hear me...?" However, Patricia showed no response. Her lips were tightly pursed, as if she were scared and in pain, opening and closing without uttering a word.Recalling the doctor's words, Martin didn't dare to waste any more time and immediately called the duty doctor.The doctor hurriedly arrived with a nurse.Using an electronic thermometer, they pressed it against Patricia's forehead. There was a 'beep' sound, and the thermometer displayed a red warning sign, showing a temperature of 40°C.This temperature frightened Martin. "Why is it so high? Is her condition critical?"The doctor hurriedly reassured him, "Mr. Langley, please don't worry. I will take her for further examination to determine the cause of the fever. We need the examination results to assess her condition thoroughly."Sayin
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 62 Charles Disguises as Randy to Visit Patricia
At this moment, his mind was full of Patricia's injuries, focusing wholeheartedly. He gently and carefully wiped the sweat off her body and then helped her put on the patient gown.When switching to the hand with the IV, he carefully threaded the drip bag through her sleeve. After changing her clothes, he used a dry towel to wipe her damp hair.His movements were gentle and meticulous, treating her as if she were a delicate porcelain doll, afraid that any carelessness would cause her to shatter.After finishing everything, it was already close to 5 am.Although autumn had arrived, the sky was still bright early in the morning. The dawn slowly crept in through the balcony and fell upon Patricia's face through the window.Martin sat tiredly on the side, quietly gazing at her with a dazed expression.After the IV drip, Patricia's fever completely subsided, and the swelling on her face had also reduced. A faint hint of vitality returned to her pale face.Martin let out a relieved sigh, hi
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 63 Flirting in Front of Debbie
The two didn't notice the unexpected guest's arrival. After finishing breakfast, Patricia took the initiative to clean up the dishes, but Martin held her back. "You're the patient, you should rest, I'll clean up."Patricia casually replied, "I'm fine."With an intentional stern face, Martin said in a deep voice, "Even if you're fine, I won't let a patient do the dishes."Helpless, Patricia withdrew her hand and realized belatedly that she had changed her clothes. She quickly looked towards Martin trembled and asked, "How did my clothes change?"As she spoke, she silently prayed in her heart, hoping that it was the nurse who changed them, not Martin.Unfortunately, her prayers went unanswered.Martin packed up the dishes while saying, "Due to your fever you were sweating a lot last night, and your clothes got fully soaked. The doctor said we needed to change your out of the wet clothes, so I helped with that."Patricia's face instantly turned red with embarrassment, feeling as if she w
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 64 Charles Stands Up for Patricia and Teaches Debbie a Lesson
Just as Patricia's high fever subsided and she didn't have the energy to argue with Debbie, Martin, too, was not willing to argue with her. For a moment, Debbie unexpectedly gained the upper hand.Manda, looking smugly at Patricia, treated her as if she were a defeated subordinate.At that moment, Charles walked in from outside! Seeing Debbie and Manda, he sweetly called out, "Auntie, Grandma."Debbie and Manda both froze, wearing a horrified expression as if they had seen a ghost.Charles tilted his head and innocently looked at them, saying, "Auntie, Grandma, what's wrong with you? Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something dirty on my face?"Debbie vigorously shook her head, trying hard to maintain her composure. She hypocritically patted his head and said, "Randy, you finally hugged Auntie again! Auntie is so happy. Ever since your Mommy came back, you haven't liked Auntie anymore. Auntie thought you didn't want me as long as your Mommy didn't want me!"With a smile o
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 65 Charles Pranks Debbie
Debbie was frozen in place.Manda realized something and her face started to look indescribable.Charles covered his nose with his left hand.With a disgusted look on her face, she fanned away the smell and deliberately exclaimed loudly, "How disgusting, Professor Brown, actually defecating in public." His voice instantly caught the attention of the patients and nurses walking around. This place was originally an observation room in the emergency department, with many patients and medical staff coming and going. With a single shout, everyone turned their gaze towards him. Soon after, they also caught a whiff of the unpleasant fecal odor. Their faces showed disgust as they retreated and distanced themselves from her, disbelief written all over their faces. Debbie felt ashamed, wishing she could dig a hole and hide. "Randy, just you wait. I won't let you get away with this." After throwing down these harsh words, she pushed the wheelchair and left. Unfortunately, because her pants w
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 66 Martin and his daughter Fannie
Charles went to the doctor's office and found a computer monitor in the far corner facing the wall. With a mischievous smile on his face, he looked innocent and pure."Beautiful doctor, can I borrow your computer for a moment? I have an urgent matter."Randy had a prestigious reputation in the hospital, well-known by everyone. No one dared to offend him. Now, his sweet words and innocent smile made him look like a prince from a comic book.The doctor was fascinated, unable to think straight. Without saying a word, she immediately got up and gave him her seat."Sure, I'm done using it. You can go ahead!"Showing her high manners by not prying into others' privacy, the female doctor left the office, leaving the computer for him.Charles sat down immediately and quickly typed on the keyboard.As soon as he infiltrated, he discovered that this virus was actually the same virus he had sold for a high price not long ago.He finally understood why Luke couldn't completely remove it. The viru
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 67 The Secret Almost Discovered
Upon seeing Martin approach, Fannie's heart skipped a beat in shock.She hastily took the menu from the cashier and, at the last moment when Martin was getting closer, she pulled Randy to join the queue to buy pancakes.Martin's gaze inadvertently swept over them, and he suddenly noticed something. His pupils trembled, and he looked towards where Randy was, only to see two figures disappearing into the crowd.His brow unconsciously furrowed. He instinctively lifted his foot to go find them. But just as he took a step forward, a figure blocked his way.Jade purposely acted as if it was a chance encounter. "Martin, what are you doing here?"Recalling their unpleasant encounter at the amusement park, Martin's face slightly darkened. "This is a breakfast shop. Why do you think I would be here?"His sarcastic tone made Jade grit her teeth, and the smile on her face almost couldn't hold up.If she weren't afraid of him discovering Fannie and Charles, she truly wouldn't want to say a word to

The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 180 A Painful and Unbearable Past
Martin, lost in thought and gazing into the distance, didn't see Charlotte deliberately fall to the ground when her relatives reached out to her."Ah..."Her cry successfully snapped Martin back to reality.He immediately bent down to help her up. "Are you okay? Did you hurt yourself?"Charlotte, tears welling up in her eyes, replied pitifully, "My wrist hurts so much, I think I've fallen on it again! I hope it's not dislocated?"Martin noticed the bandage on her wrist had come undone.The packet of medicine inside was nearly falling out. Anger started to well up inside him; this time, he was thoroughly enraged."Alan, take all of them to the police station, contact the lawyer, charge them with slander, intentional harm, extortion... I want them in jail."Feeling his boss's rage, Alan immediately carried out the order."Why are you suing us? We're the ones who have been wronged.""Just because you're wealthy doesn't put you above the law. Let me tell you, we won't back down without pr
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 179 Patricia Discovers Hunter's Secret
Hunter looked at her with tenderness, patiently waiting for her to finish speaking.Seeing his gentle expression, Patricia found it difficult to voice the words at the tip of her tongue. Nervously she reached for the lemon water on the table and took a gulp.She drank too hastily, and the sourness made her teeth quiver, causing her face to scrunch up.Hunter was amused by her adorable expression and considerately poured a little packet of sugar into her lemon water."I remember you used to hate sour tastes! What changed? Are you not afraid anymore? Going straight for it?" he asked with a smile.With her cheeks flushed with embarrassment and faced with his caring gesture, found her words of refusal even harder to pronounce.Hunter stirred the water in her cup with a straw for a while, making sure the sugar dissolved, then handed it back to her: "Here, try now. It shouldn't be sour anymore."Patricia nodded and took a sip through the straw. The taste was a bittersweet delight.Although
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 178 The Feeling Between Martin and Charlotte Was Strange
Only when the phone’s ringtone broke the silence, the deadlock was finally broken.Martin glanced at the caller ID with a gloomy expression, sighed, turned the phone upside down on his thigh in resignation. He turned to Patricia, unbuckled his seatbelt, and moved closer, taking hold of her shoulders. With a serious and helpless look on his face, he said, "Patricia, I'm sorry, I admit I was too overbearing just now. But I'm being overprotective because I care about you so much, and I don't want to see you getting too close with Hunter."Care? It was the first time Patricia had heard this word from him.The anger in her chest dissipated almost instantly, and her tone softened unconsciously. "Hunter and I grew up together. When Debbie and her daughter bullied me, he was the one who protected and encouraged me time after time. He is very important to me. If a condition for remarrying you is to cut ties with him, then I can give you the answer now."Even without her saying it, Martin gues
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 177 Not Like a Sister, But Like a Lover
Martin didn't give her a chance to escape, questioning every word, "So, is what Hunter said true? Are you really going to get engaged and marry him?"Patricia felt that the matters between her and Hunter couldn't be explained in just a few words, and moreover, everything was premature without having cleared things up with Hunter first.Seeing her still not responding, Martin grew impatient and urged, "Answer my question."Patricia pulled her hand back and said indifferently, "I won't marry him."That was her only answer. The rest, she wasn't ready to share with Martin yet.This answer caused a surge of joy in Martin's heart, his previously tense facial features gradually softened as he smiled like a child, unable to hide his delight."I knew you wouldn't like him." He said.Patricia rolled her eyes at him, "Now take me back to the restaurant."The smile on Martin's face vanished in an instant, and he refused without hesitation, "No, I won’t..."Before he could finish, his cell phone r
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 176 I Cannot Share a Man with Another Woman
Upon hearing his question, Patricia burst into laughter, her tone dripping with sarcasm. "So what if it is? What difference does it make if it isn't?"She did not deny it.Martin took her non-denial as an admission, and his handsome face darkened like the bottom of a pot, his eyes filled with brooding shadows."I don't agree.""Haha..." Patricia laughed even harder, her snort of derision loud and unmasked. "And might I ask, who are you to me? By what right do you interfere? What does it matter to you whom I'm with? At best, you're nothing more than my ex-husband. Remember, ex-hus-band."She enunciated the words “ex-husband” deliberately, making sure he grasped their significance.Martin's normally composed brows furrowed, wrapping him in an aura of cold sternness.He was clearly displeased with these words. Then silence hung in the air, heavy and enigmatic.He spoke with grave seriousness, "Let's remarry!"As he spoke, a chilly wind blew past them, its whistling sound drowning out Mar
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 175 A Man's Jealousy
Hunter expected Martin to back down and leave in a sorry state.However, to his surprise, Martin’s expression was filled with pain as he stared at their clasped hands for a moment and then strode over to them.Confusion filled Patricia as she instinctively turned her head and locked eyes with Martin, whose gaze burned with fierce anger. Her mind felt like it was exploding as if something detonated."How did you get here?" Patricia asked, barely able to form the words.No sooner had the words left her lips than Martin had reached out, forcibly separating Patricia and Hunter's clasped hands. In Patricia's stunned state, he grabbed her wrist and started to pull her away."Martin, what are you doing?" Patricia's heart began to flutter with slight panic.Martin's face had been a ghastly sight just now, as if he was on the verge of a killing spree. She had no clue where his rage was coming from.Hunter quickly stood up and seized Patricia's other wrist, forcing Martin to stop. Martin turned
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 174 Martin Intends to Confess to Patricia
The doctor conducted a thorough examination of Charlotte. Her wrist wasn't fractured but had suffered from a dislocation and soft tissue damage."Mr. Langley, please hold her tightly. I'm about to reset the bones in her wrist, which may cause some discomfort. Keep her steady, and do not let her move.""Bone reset!" Just hearing it, Charlotte's eyes widened with fear, and her body trembled. Despite this, she bravely closed her eyes, extended her hand, and prepared herself for the pain. "Go ahead! I'm not afraid of the pain!"The doctor looked surprised and said, "It's going to be very painful. Are you sure you're not afraid?"His words instantly drained the color from her face, but she vigorously nodded, clenching her teeth, and refusing to voice her fear."I'm not afraid! Back when I was boarding at school, someone pushed me down the stairs, and I broke my leg but didn’t cry. I can handle this pain!" she explained."You were pushed down the stairs?" Martin's discerning eyes narrowed,
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 173 Charlotte's Scheme
Patricia's heart skipped a beat. She knew she had been framed, again. And this woman's tactics were identical to Debbie's.Not only did she remind her of Debbie, but her methods and cunning were also the same. Indeed, Martin's taste had never changed. He always liked these hypocritical, nauseating women who could put on an act.The incident had happened too quickly; the onlookers only saw a scuffle but hadn't truly seen who had started it. They only saw someone fall and another with a hand outstretched as if pushing, so they naturally assumed Patricia was the aggressor."Professor Watson, what happened? Why did you push her?" one on looker asked."Yes, Professor Watson, is there some conflict between you two? If so, have a proper conversation about it. Getting physical in public won't do your reputation any favors." Another said."Yes! Professor Watson, perhaps you and her should talk in your office? It's not convenient in this corridor."After the incident with Debbie, everyone's vie
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 172 Charlotte is Debbie
Martin had thought he would be calm when he saw Patricia again, as if nothing had ever happened.But in this moment, with Patricia standing right in front of him, his heart raced with intense emotions that he had suppressed for so long. It was in that moment that he realized the depth of his love for her, far greater than he had ever imagined.He couldn't bear to see her with Hunter, nor could he draw a clear line between them. "You..."Martin's lips parted as he tried to speak to her, to bridge the distance between them.Unfortunately, Patricia had made up her mind to keep her distance, and with her head bowed, she took a step back, yielding the path ahead.Martin clenched his fists tightly, struggling to contain the anger and turmoil within him. Unaware of the tension between Martin and Patricia, Charlotte flashed a sweet smile at Martin and said, “Martin, let’s go! I can’t wait to see Randy!”Patricia smirked derisively, her lips curling up."Well, isn’t that affectionate?"Marti
