Spoiled by the CEO after amnesia!-Chapter 1351 - 1329: Accusing Her of Abandonment!

She immediately jumped up from the sofa: "How...how is he?"

The guard looked somewhat disheartened and sighed: "Shortly after you came to China, His Highness went to America for a gene therapy surgery. Post-surgery, doctors advised that his eyes should best avoid contact with water, but that day he went swimming. Not only did water get into his eyes, but the pool water was alkaline and too irritating, and he got infected. His Highness felt uncomfortable then but didn’t pay much attention. He held on for two days, and when he returned from MK Group yesterday, it happened."

Chu Xinyue’s cheeks turned slightly pale: "You mean...his eyes are..."

"Yes, he couldn’t see again since yesterday."

Chu Xinyue’s breath caught.

"I contacted the doctors in America; they said it’s a temporary regressive blindness caused by post-surgical wound infection. The doctors mentioned that with good rest and avoiding secondary infection, it’s just temporary and should recover in at most half a month. Princess Consort, you should go in and check on him."

Chu Xinyue initially wanted to refuse, as she came today to discuss divorce, not to create more issues.

Moreover, his blindness is only temporary and shouldn’t be a major concern.

But looking into the guard’s expectant eyes, she inexplicably walked into the bedroom.

Ya Chen was sitting on the sofa, appearing composed after his earlier fall, radiating his usual dignified aura.

Chu Xinyue looked over, and as expected, his eyes were empty and spiritless, just like when he was blind before, making her heart skip a beat.

A person who just regained sight only to fall back into darkness—what kind of feeling is that? Even if she hadn’t experienced it, she could sense it.

Moreover, his eye infection was also because of her.

Ya Chen sensed her presence without her speaking for a long time and slightly curled his lips: "So what if my eyes can’t see? It’s not like you haven’t seen me like this before. Is it so rare that you need to look for such a long time?"

Her face warmed, hurriedly withdrawing her gaze, and she couldn’t help but chuckle softly. "It’s true, I’m not as bold as you, knowing your eyes shouldn’t get wet and yet dive into a pool."

He squinted his eyes: "Feeling sorry for me?"

Chu Xinyue was too lazy to argue with him, resuming a detached tone: "Finished talking? If yes, I’m leaving. Remember what I said today; I’ll have a lawyer come by this week at the latest."

"Wait." He adjusted his sitting posture, sitting even taller and straighter like a pine tree—a majestic posture that made people hold their breath.

She stopped.

He spoke coldly: "I can’t see now; how am I supposed to look at the divorce agreement or handle the paperwork?"

She found it amusing: "You could have your assistant read the agreement to you line by line. Handling the paperwork is even simpler; you are blind, not missing a hand. It’s just signing; it’s not that hard."

He was momentarily stumped by her retort, icy sternness hanging around his lips, yet he persisted: "Chinese marriage law has a stipulation: during marriage, if one’s spouse suffers from a severe illness or handicap, both parties aren’t granted a divorce easily. If someone insists on unilateral divorce, it’s considered abandonment."

Being a royal heir, familiarizing oneself with basic laws from various countries is fundamental, especially since China is a friendly neighbor.

Chu Xinyue was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

Abandonment?

She abandoning a nation’s crown prince?

This was obviously using the law to threaten her.

She said lightly: "The guard just mentioned that you’re only temporarily blind."

"It’s still blindness until I recover; then we’ll see if it’s temporary."

Chu Xinyue took a deep breath and had no choice but to say: "Fine, then we’ll wait a few days. Once your eyes recover, I’ll have the lawyer send the document."

She heard his footsteps again, and he spoke coldly: "Before my eyes recover, you should stay here."

Surprised, she asked, "Why should I stay here?"

He smirked, showing rare mischievousness: "We’re not divorced yet, still a couple. Didn’t I just say, when one spouse suddenly becomes seriously ill or handicapped, the wife is obligated to care for him? Otherwise, as a husband, I could sue the wife for abandonment at any moment."

Chu Xinyue felt both irritated and amused, flipping the accusation onto her? He wants to charge her with abandonment?

It takes a lot of gall to pull this off!

Her expression remained calm, fine, since he agreed to handle the divorce once his eyes are healed, he has already conceded, she might as well go along.

Staying at the hotel means she can keep an eye on his recovery.

If his eyes heal and he claims otherwise while she’s absent, wouldn’t he be fooling her?

She nodded: "Alright. I’ll first go inform Dad and tidy up some things. I’ll come back in a couple of days." 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

"No need for such hassle running back and forth; my assistant will arrange new daily necessities and clothes for you. As for informing your dad, I’ll have the guard make a call."

Chu Xinyue looked at him: "So you’ve already planned this out?"

He shrugged, looking determined to win.

The guard walked in at just the right moment: "I’ll call the service staff to tidy up the room for His Highness and the Princess Consort..."

Chu Xinyue bit her lip and quickly said: "Wait a minute, although I’m staying here, arrange a separate room for me."

The guard hesitated, looking toward Ya Chen.

Chu Xinyue said blandly: "After all, since we married, we’ve hardly lived in the same room."

Was she accounting for each grievance now? Seeking revenge for his coldness toward her before?

Ya Chen’s face twitched slightly, but he didn’t pressure further, instructing the guard to follow her request.

**

That day, Chu Xinyue moved into the hotel’s presidential suite.

Her room was arranged in the secondary bedroom next to Ya Chen’s master bedroom.

Anyway, the guard mentioned that the American doctors believed his eyes should recover within a fortnight.

A half-month passes quickly.

That evening, Chu Xinyue received a call from her dad. She said she’s now staying with Ya Chen, but didn’t mention the divorce. She only said there were issues with Ya Chen’s eyes due to swimming, so she was there to take care of him.

After hanging up, it was getting late, but Chu Xinyue didn’t feel like sleeping.

She had come today to talk about the divorce, so how did she end up staying with him instead?

Thinking it over, she felt a bit uneasy for some unknown reason.

She went to the door, opened it, and sneaked a peek at the closed door of the master bedroom next door.

His eyes were temporarily blind again.

This is China, not the Ya Family’s royal home in Nanga. He only brought a guard with him and didn’t even have servants around.

Can he manage daily chores like bathing, changing clothes, eating?

Thinking of this, she bit her lip, somewhat amused at her own concern—what was she thinking about, worrying if he could manage while they were almost divorced?

He’s so capable; he managed everything before when he couldn’t see, surely he can handle it now too!

She closed the door, switched on the computer in her room, and logged into QQ.
