Martin denied: "I didn't!" Martin said. "! After you signed the divorce papers, I never saw you again.
It was only eight months later, when a child suddenly appeared at my doorstep, that I learned you had hidden the pregnancy and given birth to Randy."
Patricia's heart raced.
"How could thatit be? I clearly heard your voice; how could it not be you?"
AsFrom her words, Martin piecedfinally began to piece things together, his expression turned cold.handsome face as if shrouded in a layer of ice: "What exactly happened that day?"
Patricia, struggling to compose herself after crying wiped her tears away, having cried for so long, revealed, yet still unable to stop the sobs:
"Actually, on the day you pushed for aproposed divorce, I had gone towas just coming out of the hospital and. I had just found out I was pregnant."
"What?" Martin, shocked, asked, Martin's eyes widened in disbelief as he stared at Patricia.
"If you knew you were pregnant, why did you agree to the divorce?" He
If he had known she was pregnant, he would notnever, ever have divorced her had he known about the pregnancy..
With Patricia looked at him with tearful, pitiful eyes, Patricia responded, ".
"Why? You have the nerve to ask me why? You told me that day that your crush had returned,come back and that you wanted a divorce. You tell me, if it were you, would you agree to the divorce?"
"I..."
Martin was momentarily speechless. at a loss for words for a moment.
He had wanted ato divorce her back then, but mainly because he believed her heart truly belonged to another. man!
Patricia continued, "I’d decided, while wiping her tears, said: "I was planning to keep news ofhide the pregnancy to myselffrom you and leave Ellenstein Villa District, but alone. I didn't expect to be drugged and knocked out as soon as I stepped out of the house, I was drugged and knocked out.. When I woke up, I was already on anthe operating table."
Then Martin's face was like thunder.
No need to guess.
The expression turned stormy, suspectingonly person who could do such a thing in Ellenstein Villa District was Debbie as the culprit..
Patricia continued: "When I vaguely woke up, I vaguely heard you talking to the doctor. The doctor told you that I was pregnant with your child, and thatif the bone marrow transplant might killwas forced, the child. might not survive. You said that my and the child's worthless lives were worthlessnothing compared to Debbie's, that you only wanted Debbie to be healthy."
At her words, Martin was wroth and said: "Patricia, in your eyes, am I, Martin was outraged. "What kind of person do you think I am?! Someone , such a heartless who would endanger my, beastly person? Would I hurt my own child and itsthe child's mother?" for another woman?"
FeelingPatricia felt guilty, Patricia retorted, under his gaze.
"Can you blame me? HadIf you had given me enough security, would such a misunderstanding have occurred? Besides, on the day of the divorce, didn't you also offer to buy my bone marrow for say you'd pay fifty million dollars when we divorced?"for my bone marrow?"
"Martin was about to explode with anger.
His chest heaved violently.
"I said I'd buy your bone marrow because I didn't know you were pregnant! I had consulted with doctors, whoand they said itthat a bone marrow transplant wouldn't cause much harm youto the body. After your refusalyou refused, I toldmade it clear to Debbie I'dthat I would find another donor and instructedfor her and that she should not to mentionbring up your transplant again."
"But I'm positive I heard yourcan be sure that the voice before the operation."I heard that day was yours."
Martin, frustrated, asked,She loved Martin so much; she would never mishear.
Martin glared at her: "Did you hear Alan's voice?"
Patricia paused.
Martin said: "Alan is my assistant, soand he would've been present at such an important event."
With thathis reminder, Patricia suddenly realized.
Yes! Alan was Martin's personal assistant.
Martin entrusted all important matters to Alan.
Alan must have been there for such an important matter.
And that day, she hadn't heardindeed did not hear Alan's voice that day..
He concluded, "That almost left Martin speechless.
He said: "This must be related to Debbie must have been behind it.. She's dead, so we can't ask her forand the truth now.can no longer be verified. But I, Martin, swear to you that I had nothing to do with it., I stake my reputation on it."
At that moment, Patricia understood the depth ofdeeply realized that it had been Debbie's conspiracy. all along.
From the day she divorced Martin, Patriciashe had fallen into Debbie's trap, harboring hatred for.
And she had hated Martin for a full five whole years. The realization filled her with intense emotions; she because of it.
Thinking of this, she turned to be extremely excited.
She wished she could kill Debbie.
WithMartin asked with a frown, Martin asked,: "Do you remember which hospital the bone marrow transplant occurred in?" He hopedtook place?"
Maybe they could glean some information frominvestigate through the hospital's records.
Patricia shook her head. Patricia shook her head, unable to provide any details.
Martin pressed,asked again: "Then do you remember which doctor performed the surgery?
Male or female? How old? Any distinguishing features?"
Again, Patricia shook her head. Patricia still shook her head: "I was in a coma at the time, and when I woke up, I was no longer in the hospital."
Martin persisted: "You don't remember anything at all? Not even a little?"
Patricia bit her lower lip, straining to remember anything that could help, but came up empty. recall, trying to find a shred of a clue.
Unfortunately, despite racking her brain, she found nothing.
"I was drugged at the time, and I woke up in pain. I vaguely heard you talking to the doctor, then I passed out again. The dose of anesthesia dose they used on me was very high; I couldidn't even have the strength to open my eyes."
Martin accepted the dead end.was disappointed about that and said: "Debbie is dead, and withyou have no clues fromon your end, so this matter is indeed impossible to investigate."
With a self-deprecating laugh, Patricia said, "The laughed self-deprecatingly: "What the truth of the matter is, it's not important anymore."
What truly mattered was her newfound realization that she knew Martin had not forsakenhadn't abandoned their child for Debbie, dissipating all her resentment toward him..
That was enough.
All the hatred she had for him seemed to dissipate at that moment.
Martin thenalso realized.: "Is it because of this matter that you've been unwilling to forgive me, tor give me another chance?"
