After having a plan in mind, Serena began to approach Tommy with an ulterior motive.“Uncle Tommy, I didn’t recognize you as I was too young to remember what happened back then. I’m sorry about that. Let me treat you to a meal, okay?”Of course, Tommy was more than happy to accept the offer as Serena sounded sincere. Moreover, she was going to bring him to a large and high-end restaurant.Having been tricked by Sophia previously, Tommy was aware of Sophia’s cruelty. Little did he realize that the innocent-looking woman in front of him was actually a cruel person as well.Very soon, Tommy had forgotten how Serena initially treated him with indifference and disdain. He began to see her as a kind woman now.Upon noticing this, Serena treated Tommy more pleasantly to make him feel flattered.Up until now, Tommy had completely dropped his guard in front of Serena. On this day, Serena deliberately took him to the place near Christina’s house and ambled around the area. Coincidentally
Christina glanced at Tommy. “Who are you? Does it have anything to do with you?”“I’m her uncle. Since you bullied my niece, it certainly has something to do with me.”“Birds of a feather, huh?” Christina snickered. She then pulled Travis and turned around without bothering Tommy.“You slapped someone, but you’re planning to leave just like that? Is there no justice?” Tommy boiled with rage as he watched Christina turn around and leave. “Stop right there!”Deep down, Serena was delighted to see Tommy grab hold of Christina. Just as she was thinking about pushing Christina forward, a powerful voice rang out all of a sudden. “Get your dirty hands off of her!”The bodyguard whom Michael assigned to protect Christina appeared. He twisted Tommy’s hand behind his back and punched him twice in the face. During Tommy’s dizzy spells, the bodyguard even fiercely asked, “What are you planning to do? You’re tired of living, aren’t you?”Serena was shocked to see Tommy get beaten. There was a
Before Christina could answer, the bodyguard beside her said, “Madam, make sure you have evidence before you make an allegation against her. Mind your words. I can sue you for accusing her!”The bodyguard’s words made Winona lose her temper. She stared fiercely at him. “Who are you? Are you in a position to speak?” “I assigned him to protect Christina. Do you have any problems with it, Doctor Harris?” A cold voice sounded, and Winona subsequently looked in the direction where it came from. Michael then appeared in front of them. He had always called her Aunty Winona. Now that he was addressing her as Doctor Harris, Winona was really not used to the form of address. “Michael… Why are you here?”Michael did not bother about Winona. He had swiftly driven here upon hearing about the matter from the bodyguard on the phone, so when he noticed that Christina was safe and sound, he let out a sigh of relief.With a dismayed tone, he said, “I’ve told you many times that having mercy on yo
The air was tense as the operation went on. Winona walked back and forth in front of the operating room nervously while mouthing prayers from the bottom of her heart. Michael held Christina’s hands and said, “Let’s go, it’s none of our business anymore. We’ve done our part by sending her here.” Christina shook her head. “Let’s just wait for a bit. Don’t you want to at least see the twins?” Michael scoffed. “Hmmm, I guess having a peek wouldn’t hurt. I really want to know what the boy will look like.” The two sat down on the bench. Right then, Howard came in a hurry. “Sir, are you alright?” “I’m fine.” Then, an idea came into his mind. “Go inform the media. Tell them my ex-wife, Serena, is giving birth.” It was a big scoop, and if the news got out, the reporters would swarm the hospital soon. Winona concentrated all her thoughts on the situation happening inside the operating room. She was anxious. Then, she heard messy footsteps striding over to her. When she turned a
Michael did not play along, however. He smiled at Winona instead. “Dr. Harris, how do you know that it’s my children in there?” “Of course they’re your children. Serena is your fiancée. If she’s not bearing your children, who’s the father then?” Winona asked. “Let me correct you right there. She’s my ex-fiancée. The engagement between me and her is over.” “That might be true, but Serena only has you in her life. Whose children could she have if not yours?”“You can’t be too sure.” Michael scoffed. He touched Christina’s bloated stomach and continued, “I only have one woman in my life and she’s Christina. She’s the only woman who’s worthy to bear my children.” “There’s no use denying it right now. The children have been delivered now, so what are you going to do about it?” Winona sounded intimidating. “What? What should I do?” Michael scoffed even louder. “I suppose the media doesn’t know why Serena and I broke up, right? Well, let me make this clear once and for all. The r
Michael wrapped his hand around Christina’s waist and said, “Chrissy, the show’s over. We should leave now.” Christina nodded and agreed to leave. When the two walked past Winona, Michale paused and whispered, “Winona, shouldn’t you contact Sophia about Serena’s babies?” Michael’s words shocked Winona. ‘He knows that Sophia is still alive?!’ However, before she could wrap her head around the matter, the doctor rushed out of the operating room and anxiously shouted, “Nurse! The mother is bleeding! I need blood packs in here!” Winona was worried, so she rushed into the operating room to check on Serena herself.Michael watched with a blank look before sparing a glance at Tommy who was also stunned at one side. Tommy did not expect things to take such a dramatic turn. When he noticed the glance from Michael, he instinctively faltered backward. Michael grunted coldly. “Remember, I want you to tell Sophia about everything that happened here.” He left Tommy with the message
“No! They’re not my babies!” Serena shouted. She could not accept what she saw. “You people must have swapped my babies away! Give me back my baby!” Startled by the scream, the babies started to cry. Even the nurse was so stunned by Serena’s vicious look that she quickly carried the babies and stepped away, worried that Serena might harm the babies. For a white woman to give birth to black twins, it was no doubt difficult for Serena to accept it. “Ms. Garcia, they are your babies. I was in the operation room and I saw it myself,” the nurse explained. “If you don’t believe me, you can ask Dr. Harris, she can prove it.” “Impossible! I’m pregnant with Michael’s child! This is impossible! You must have taken my babies away!” Winona got to the ward and saw Serena losing control, tossing everything within her reach to the ground as if she had lost her mind. “Who told you to bring the babies in!” Winona bellowed. “Dr. Harris, it’s not my fault. Ms. Garcia wanted to see the babie
How would Serena react when she woke up and see her babies? “You two even kept this secret from me?” Ariel grumbled. “You must tell me if you plan to do something like this next time. I want to join the fray as well!” Ariel did not sympathize with Serena. In her opinion, Serena was the one who plotted against everyone, and now that she was in such a state, she only had herself to blame and had reaped what she sowed. Before this, Ariel was worried that once Serena delivered Michael’s babies, she would come asking for trouble. Now it seemed like she did not have to worry at all. “I am certain that the babies Serena had are not mine but I did not expect them to be black either. I was quite shocked as well,” exclaimed Michael. “Maybe she really got this coming, even God doesn’t show her mercy.” Michael laughed. In order to shake his mother off his back all those years ago, Michael told Logan to simply grab a sperm specimen from the sperm bank for his mother to use for surrogacy.
